It made me what I am today
“People are afraid of themselves, of their own reality; their feelings most of all. People talk about how great love is, but that’s bullshit. Love hurts. Feelings are disturbing. People are taught that pain is evil and dangerous. How can they deal with love if they’re afraid to feel?
Pain is meant to wake us up. People try to hide their pain. But they’re wrong. Pain is something to carry, like a radio. You feel your strength in the experience of pain. It’s all in how you carry it. That’s what matters. Pain is a feeling. Your feelings are a part of you. Your own reality. If you feel ashamed of them, and hide them, you’re letting society destroy your reality. You should stand up for your right to feel your pain.”
p/s: This too, goes out to me cat whom I’ve lost not very long ago.

Do what you can do, with what you have, every chance you get. Moving just one step forward will give you a positive foothold upon which to build.
Often it is easy to choose to see yourself and treat yourself as a victim. Yet by making such a choice, you quickly surrender control over your own life.
Instead of giving up and becoming a victim, know that there is always something positive you can do. There is always some action with which you can move yourself forward.
Life’s greatest triumphs often have their origins in times of great difficulty. In each challenge there is fertile ground for building great value.
Do you feel overwhelmed by your circumstances? The best way to get away from that feeling is to step forward and do something positive and productive.
With every positive action, your power increases. Step by step, moment by moment, move your life exactly where you choose to go.
