“It's okay not to reply to someone's text right away. It's okay not to accept an invitation to a party. It's okay not to give someone a rundown of what's happening in your life today. It's okay not to share your relationship status. It's okay not to give people explanations as to why you changed your job or your house. It's okay to take a break, gain some space, and keep your life private. You can disconnect with others to connect with yourself, as many times as you’d like. You don't need to feel bad about being unable to give yourself to people in the way they hoped to receive you. The right people will love and support you regardless of the space and time you take for yourself.” HealingCourageStrengthSelf LoveSelf WorthSelf Compassion Book:Not Broken, Becoming.: Moving from Self-Sabotage to Self-Love.

“You are not complete the day someone compliments you, shows you off to the world, or showers you with affection. You are not complete the day someone feeds your ego and gives you validation. You are complete the day you recognize you are unique, extraordinary, and irreplaceable. You are complete the day you trace your scars and see them as unique and beautiful. You are complete the day you turn inwards to get your own validation. You are complete the day you realize only your approval matters.” LoveGrowthHealingCourageStrengthSelf EsteemSelf HelpSelf Worth Author:Nida Awadia

“Listen, their cruelty towards you has nothing to do with you. It has to do with how cruel the world has been to them. It has to do with their inability to deal with their pain. It has to do with their unresolved trauma.” PainRelationshipsHealingSelf HelpTrauma Author:Nida Awadia
