When it’s free, it’s priceless. If you’re lucky, someone will make it for you, but you can’t keep it. If you use it wisely, then it’s well spent. But once you lose it, you can never get it back. So don’t take it for granted and never waste it. We have a limited amount, so be careful who you give it to.
Don’t keep the past in your mind. Don’t stress over the future. Because if you’re too worried about what has already happened and what might happen, you can’t focus on what’s right in front of you. The present is what makes the future and what helps you move on from the past. — (via poeticheartache)

Don’t be trying all the time to fix things. What you run from only stays with you longer. When you fight something, you only make it stronger. Don’t do what you want. Do what you don’t want. Do what you’re trained not to want. It’s the opposite of following your bliss. Do the things that scare you the most. “
Chuck Palahniuk, Invisible Monsters

Sometimes it takes a lifetime to realize that life is short. If you love someone, tell them. Show them. Be with them. Nothing else matters.
In the end, only love remains. Don’t take a lifetime to show it. Life is short; live it up.
love life, engage in it, give it all you’ve got. love it with a passion, because life truly does give back, many times over, what you put into it
True wisdom comes to each of us when we realize how little we understand about life, ourselves, and the world around us. — Socrates
The future is no place to place your better days.
To ourselves, we’re great. Yet most of us live life without making a stand, contented to blend into the background of self-rendering nothingness. Live your life with a bit of recklessness-someone once told me “someone who doesn’t make mistakes makes nothing”. I don’t want to look back feel contented at my mediocre accomplishments. Nobody remembers the person who conformed out of inadequacy.
“Nobody notices a patch of grass, they see the tree”

Truthfully expressing yourself or putting on no pretense. Being able to be who you are is a hard thing without putting on a show. So, your goal is to just be.
At some point you will realize that you have done too much for someone, that the only next possible step to do is to stop. Leave them alone. Walk away. It’s not like you’re giving up, and it’s not like you shouldn’t try. It’s just that you have to draw the line of determination from desperation. What is truly yours will eventually be yours, and what is not, no matter how hard you try, will never be. —
