Those who laugh at your insecurities don’t even care about the darkness you had to go through – let them stare, let them laugh, and let them be. If they don’t care about you when you are at your weakest of points, they don’t deserve to walk in your glory when you rise. Forgive them without words and leave them be. Let forgiveness, kindness and compassion be your guiding light out of the darkness.

Let the rose rest
You can’t force a rose to bloom in the snowy winter when the ground is frozen. Let the rose rest. No matter how dark and cold the winter might seem, spring will eventually emerge with its warm, comforting winds. The sun will kiss the earth once again, and nature will come to life. Each season has its time, each season is equally valuable because it all contributes to the bigger picture.

You are not limited by your past experiences or held back by your mistakes. And you are certainly not defined by other people’s opinions of you.
Embrace all that you are, flaws and all – love yourself more each time you mess up and your pain will soon transform into your strength.
What can YOU do to make yourself feel better today?

You deserve to be treated with kindness, love, and respect, and life should be fun and wonderful for you. But you know what, what happened to you has already happened. No amount of sadness, anger, or pain you feel NOW can ever make that go away. However, YOU can do something about how you feel today.
The first step might be to say to yourself, ok, I have spent enough time on feeling bad. It is enough. I really look forward to feeling better again, I want to feel good again. I want to smile, I want to laugh, I want to relax and enjoy life again. I will no longer hold myself back from all those wonderful things because I finally realize I CAN do something about how I feel today.
