__y reacting from fear instead of responding from love, you inject poison directly into the veins of your relationship.

The purpose of fear is to raise your awareness not to stop your progress.

Some people feed your ego, but starve your soul.

They said, "You'll never find someone like me again!" I thanked them for wishing me well.

Give it time_ The weak in character always get tired of pretending. Their true colors will show.

Don't be fooled... If they gossip to you, they'll gossip about you.

If you love someone...feel it, speak it, show it, be it.If you don't feel inspired to show your love in this multidimensional manner...be kind enough to let them go...so they can find someone who will.

Change is the parent of progress.

No matter how they abuse you toleration is how you abuse yourself.

Some people seem like a bright light during your darkest moment.. A beautiful refuge_ but it__ a trap_ there is only more pain there. Now that I think about it_ I imagine that__ what bugs feel like when they fly into the zapper.

Sometimes we need someone to just listen. Not to try and fix anything or offer alternatives, but to just be there_ to listen. An ear that listens can be medicine for a heart that hurts.

It took me a long time to learn the difference between working on a healthy relationship and wasting my time on a long goodbye. Never again!

Dads, no matter your relationship with your kid__ mom, honor her this weekend. Mother__ Day isn__ about you or drama. It__ about her and her impact on your ids. Be grateful. Celebrate her_ and if you can__ get out of your own way, do it for your kids.

Think about the people you love, appreciate, and admire_ If today was the last day you could speak with them_ What would you say_ and what are you waiting for?

Pay attention_ How a person handles poor cell service, traffic, and spotty wifi is a good indicator of how they__l behave during relationship challenges.

Mindset fuels behavior... Great lives, great relationships, great businesses, and great love stories are cultivated from within.

Search for contentment in each person you meet.

I wish for you the wisdom to realize that you can let go of a past relationship without letting go of the lessons it taught you.
