1 " When we get too comfortable in our routine we stop challenging ourselves. Complacency is the silent dream killer. "
― Nina Guilbeau
2 " Even when we do not actively participate in our destiny, we are still on a chosen path. Life has a way of making decisions for us. "
3 " As soon as you stop making everyone else responsible for your happiness, the happier you’ll be. "
4 " Learn to be brave and adventurous because you’ll never discover your place in the world, if you’re too afraid to leave your own backyard. "
5 " Being there when things are easy is one of the benefits of being a good friend. Being there when things get difficult is one of the tests. "
6 " Everyone keeps telling me that time heals all wounds, but no one can tell me what I’m supposed to do right now. Right now I can’t sleep. It’s right now that I can’t eat. Right now I still hear his voice and sense his presence even though I know he’s not here. Right now all I seem to do is cry. I know all about time and wounds healing, but even if I had all the time in the world, I still don’t know what to do with all this hurt right now. "
― Nina Guilbeau , Too Many Sisters
7 " When you lose someone, you get used to living day to day without them. But you’ll never get used to the “10 second heartbreak.” That’s the time it takes to wake to full consciousness each day and remember… "
8 " When you love someone, show them in words AND deeds. To hear you're loved is nice but to feel loved is incredible. "
9 " Be unapologetically yourself. That's easier said than done, but most worthwhile things are. "
10 " A sure sign of maturity is being able to accept people for who they are. You stop agonizing over changing those who don’t want to change. Because the truth is, little victories aside, that’s a superpower you don’t have. What you can do is decide what role you will allow them to play in your life. Then …you live with it. "
11 " We are taught how to read, write, to be polite, cautious and respectful. But no one ever teaches us how to be happy. We have to learn that all on our own. "
12 " Sometimes it's not about your opinion; it's about what's right...and knowing the difference. "
13 " Loving yourself doesn't mean you think you're perfect or better than others. It just means you know that sometimes you have to be your own cheerleader, your own warrior ...and you're ok with that "
14 " Like handling an onion, peeling off the "husk" of our lives, sometimes makes us cry. "
15 " The misery and the murders came later. Robert "
