Words of wisdom?

Take no shit from anyone. Pretty self explanatory, but yeah, don't let anyone get you down or mess with you. It's one thing if there's good reasoning behind it all and it may all tie into you learning a life lesson, but if that isn't the case, then anybody who tries to get to you really isn't worth the attention.

When it comes to friends and/or a significant other, don't settle for less than what you really deserve. I mean, it's said that we all go through some bad ones and that helps us appreciate the good ones, but whenever you can either outright avoid or just get out of those rather meh situations early on, I say go for it.

It's ok to make mistakes, you're only human and these things happen, you can only live and learn. It isn't always enough to be forgiven by others, sometimes you have to learn to forgive yourself too. Also, sometimes you can make no mistakes whatsoever and still find yourself in a unfavorable situation anyways, this result was in no way your fault, it's just life being the fickle thing it is.

This sort of ties into the first point, but don't let anybody make you someone you're not, stay true to yourself and try to not alter who you are just to make others like you. It's important to believe that who you are is good enough, and that you don't ever need to change for anybody but yourself, your happiness and well being ought to always come first in such situations. Friends or family voicing legitimate concern for how you may be and reflecting on that is one thing, but if it has anything to do with pretending to be someone you're not, chances are you're not in a good situation.

Life can be rough and sometimes it may even seem hopeless, but things can always get better somehow, it's important to never give up that fight. You can only continue to try your best, that's all anybody should expect out of you, to at the very least try. Furthermore, even while there are people out there who have it worse then you, what you have is still what you have, you're no less valid when it comes to feeling upset about whatever negative things life may face you with.

In truth, there is no such thing as "normal"...we're all a little odd; normality is but a mere illusion. Though, perhaps the fact that we're all different is in and of itself something that makes us all similar, I find that's a very interesting way of looking at it.

Realistically speaking, "impossible" only exists if you let it. You have a lot of capability and influence when it comes to shaping the world around you, don't forget this, you have the power to do anything feasible if you set your mind to it. Sure, some things may be easier said than done, but in the end you still have that potential.

Being nice to someone you hate doesn't make you fake, it makes you a better person.

It takes a true man to come and finish a plate another man left on the table. Don't be afraid to love someone just because they are not your kin by blood because love is what really makes you family. Blood may be thicker than water, but love is ten times thicker than blood.

It only takes one person to start a revolution, one idea can make a big change if enough people back, support, and practice it. If you see something that needs changing, don't be afraid to step up because even if you can't make the change on your own, the ripple will eventually echo loud enough to effect other in some way or another.

Never start a battle if you are not willing to finish it by yourself. If you can't finish an argument and take being ganged up on for your opinion when you start something, then don't start it.

Always hug you loved ones especially when you haven't seen them for awhile, because you never know when or where you might lose them.

If you need to become stronger, use the pain of loss. If you need to become smarter, use the fear of failure.

And that's all I can think of at the moment.

 

I think that treating others as you'd like to be treated is important to me. We don't know what others are going through, do we? Just be nice.
