Be careful what you tell people.
A friend today could be an
enemy tomorrow.
----
Once I lose respect for you,
it's gone...I've never
re-spected anyone...
----
A true friend doesn't care
when you're broke, what
you weigh, if your house
is a mess, what you drive,
about your past, or if your
family is filled with crazy
people. They love you for
who you are.
----
Getting married young is okay.
Getting pregnant young is okay.
Not going to college right after
high school is okay. Not going to
college at all is okay. Being a single
parent is okay.
What isn't okay is people judging
others because their life isn't the
way you chose to live yours.
----
I don't care if I'm selfish.
After putting people first
for the longest time and
being disappointed I deserve
to do whatever makes me happy.
----
Don't worry about hurting my feelings
because I guarantee you not one bit
of my self-esteem is tied up in your
acceptance.
----
I don't believe in holding grudges.
I do, however, remember facts
forever.
----
Sometimes you have to play the
role of a fool to fool the fool
who thinks they are fooling you.
----
Here's the thing about people
with good hearts...
They give you excuses when you
don't explain yourself. They
accept your worst, they lift
you up, even if it means putting
their priorities aside.
It's because they don't make you
work hard for the attention
they give you.
They accept the love they think
they've earned and you
accepted the love you think
you're entitled to.
Let Me Tell You Something...
Fear the day when a good heart
gives up on you. Our skies don't
become angry out of no where.
Our sunshine does not allow
the darkness to take over for
no reason.
A heart does not turn cold unless
it's been treated with coldness
for a while.
----
I hate when people say,
"They're still your family."
Just because someone is
your family doesn't mean
you have to keep them in
your life if they are toxic.
Blood means nothing sometimes.
Don't let people guilt you into
being in contact with someone
who isn't good for your mental
health.
----
Maturity is the power you have
to destroy someone who did
you wrong but you just breathe,
walk away and let life take care
of them.
----
Self love is very important.
You can be the person that
makes you happy. You can
be your own best friend.
You can comfort yourself and
be enough when no one else
is there. The right person
will come into your life when
the time is right, until then,
love yourself.
----
Don't let anyone minimize how
you feel. If you feel something,
you feel it and it's real to you.
Nothing anyone says has the power
to invalidate that, ever. No one
else sees life through you.
No one else has lived through
your experiences. And so, no
one else has the right to dictate
or judge how you feel. Your
feelings are important and you
deserve to be heard. They are
inherently valid and they matter.
Don't let anyone ever make you
believe otherwise.
----
Everyone you meet always asks
if you have a career, are married
or own a house as if life is some
kind of grocery list. But no one
ever asks you if you are happy.

@Lindsays Grandma- Thank you for the post. My heart needed that. It is amazing that some small things come right when you need them.

LUVNLIFE, You are very welcome. This is just one of a few I have posted and if you know how to search you can bring some of them up. Most are called Words of Wisdom or More Words of Wisdom. I honestly believe there are one or two sayings that everyone can relate to. Glad you enjoyed it.

don't fall, my wisdom.

"No one ever asks if you are happy". Sad, but very true.

It's all common sense words of wisdom that we all should be taught by somebody growing up.
