Sometimes it may seem like the world is against you and that you have nowhere to turn, but that’s not true. There are people out there that love you more than you love yourself.
You may have made mistakes in your past, but that doesn’t mean that you are a bad person, you are not your past. Ask yourself, if someone around you was to make a mistake, would you forgive them? Exactly.
If you ask for forgiveness and try your best to change your ways, the people that really matter will forgive you. No maybe not everybody, but no matter what you do, no matter how many good things you do for someone, they may think of you as the villain in their story. That’s just the human condition.
Even if you somehow managed to be the “perfect” person, which no one can do, there is always going to be someone that doesn’t think you are good enough.
The people that really matter in your life are the ones that are going to stick around and love you through thick and thin.
You can’t hold onto the people in your life that just drag you down. People are always going to come and go, and it’s okay to grieve, but you need to let them go eventually.
As long as you are happy and you are serving your purpose in your life, just continue doing your best.
You may have to let go of some of your ego and pride, in order to really be happy in life.
You don’t need the whole world one your side in order to succeed, you just keep living your best life and it will all work out eventually.
You can’t wake up every day trying to impress everyone you see, if you do that you will forget to stop and smell the roses.
If you go about trying to prove yourself and your actions, life will become very bland very quickly.
What other people think of you doesn’t matter, only what you think of yourself. If you have a poor self-image, it won’t matter how many people think you are cool, you will still be miserable.
When you continuously do your absolute best, the right people are going to notice. Good recognizes good. When someone goes out of their way to try to hurt you, you don’t want them in your life anyway.
Don’t give them the satisfaction of them ruining your life, that’s what they want. If you let people that are bad for you and your health go, you will quickly realize how many actual good people are in your life. They will shine through and you will be happier. Just make sure to remember, no matter what happens.
You are important, you are loved, you matter.
