There Will Be Some Very Painful Moments In Your Life My Friend... There will be some very painful moments in your life, my friend. There will be moments, days even, when the sun doesn’t seem to rise in your world and the breath feels sucked right out of your lungs. When food has no taste, the world has no joy and everything seems like an effort too far. Yes, my

Give up defining yourself - to yourself or to others. You won't die. You will come to life. And don't be concerned with how others define you. When they define you, they are limiting themselves, so it's their problem. Whenever you interact with people, don't be there primarily as a function or a role, but as the field of conscious Presence. You can only lose something that you have, but you cannot lose something that you are — Eckhart Tolle

Our thoughts are so powerful. Most of the time we unconsciously let them run wild while we are on autopilot. When ever you can, take a deep breath & focus on what you're thinking. If the thoughts are negative, remind yourself that your doing the best you can ❤️ Don't under estimate the power of putting your right arm across you heart & gently patting your shoulder for self comfort ❤️ This is my go to when I've been to hard on myself # # #
The truth is that life can be very difficult at times. There can be a lot of pressure to keep it all together, to be smart and beautiful, to be so good and perfect. But sometimes we don't have it together at all. Sometimes we make mistakes. Sometimes we don't feel good or look our best. Sometimes things are not good at all, and we feel miserable, lonely or depressed. If you have lost your way and feel down, that feeling belongs to you. If you feel miserable — it's yours, and no one should take it away from you. It's important to feel your feelings. Maybe things honestly aren't very good at all right now. Maybe you have good reasons to be depressed, and the last thing you need is someone telling you to be happy. But one thing you do need, is at least the respect from others to let you sit with your valid feelings. You don't always need a cheerleader, but just someone to simply be a friend by acknowledging where you actually are, and how you really feel. Real problems can't be fixed with a motivational poster, a cute quote or a pat on the back. When you are in your pain, it does not matter how intrinsically special you are, or how beautiful life is, or how precious each moment is — if you don't accept and respect your suffering, it isn't going anywhere. Submit to your pain; don't suppress your pain. If you can sit with your pain, listen to your pain and respect your pain — in time you will move through your pain.
— Bryant McGill
Sometimes when we're angry, there are other emotions hidden below the surface. Learning to recognize when anger isn't really what we're feeling is important for helping us identify and cope with our emotions.

Not all toxic people are cruel and uncaring. Some of them may love us dearly. Many of them have good intentions. Most are toxic to our being simply because their needs and way of existing in the world force us to compromise ourselves and our happiness. They aren’t inherently bad people, but they aren’t the right people for us. And as hard as it is, we have to let them go. Life is hard enough without being around people who bring you down, and as much as you care, you can’t destroy yourself for the sake of someone else. You have to make your wellbeing a priority. Whether that means breaking up with someone you care about, loving a family member from a distance, letting go of a friend, or removing yourself from a situation that feels painful – you have every right to leave and create a safer space for yourself – Daniell Koepke
