Quote by Eckhart Tolle

“Nothing out there will ever satisfy you except temporarily and superficially, but you may need to experience many disillusionments before you realize that truth. Things and conditions can give you pleasure, but they will also give you pain. Things and conditions can give you pleasure, but they cannot give you joy. Nothing can give you joy. Joy is uncaused and arises from within as the joy of Being. It is an essential part of the inner state of peace, the state that has been called the peace of God. It is your natural state, not something that you need to work hard for or struggle to attain.”

Quote by Eckhart Tolle

“Great morning! There’s something amazing that happens when you choose you over chaos, lies, deceit, worry and stress. When you realize your value. When you seize the moment to say “yes I love you and yes I’ll miss you but to leave you is better than to stay.” Sometimes loving someone isn’t enough because in most cases the bad outweighs the good. This is not just a statement; it’s a prophetic release. It captures the sacred tension between love and liberation, and between longing and self-worth. “I loved you. I prayed for you. I even stayed longer than I should have. But today, I choose me. I choose peace over performance. Truth over tension. Healing over history. Leaving isn’t failure—it’s freedom.”
