Quote by Julian Winters

“The future is only grim because people see it that way. It's unpredictable. Life is a summer storm of insecure thoughts. There's an umbrella of precautions to prevent insecurity, but it doesn't always keep the rain out of your face.”

“If you stay determined, the obstacles cannot stop your progress. You will triumph over every mountain.”

“I told him I loved him, He didn’t say anything back. But I saw kindness in that silence, How many people say “I love you” without meaning it? His quiet felt honest, A reminder that silence speaks. Even when he didn’t love me back, He gave me one more reason to love him more. Instead of drowning in my anger That he didn’t love me, I chose to look deeper within. I realized anger is weight we bear, And holding onto it only destroys us. Love doesn’t need to be returned to be real. When others don’t mirror my heart, I find strength in acceptance. Each time I share my truth, I uncover the beauty of who I am, And the many ways love can bloom. Even in pain, I choose to grow. To love others, even when it’s not returned, Is a gift. And the greatest love of al? To cherish myself for loving unconditionally.”

“Codes and semiotic conventions are a challenge for human communication, since they seal off people with a privacy protection label and make them accessible only by means of a barcode that might estrange them from their surroundings but, at the same time, procure them a kind of reassurance in their comfort zone. This dialectical situation may keep them struggling during their entire life. ("The unbreakable code " )”

“The word dialectic (in dialectical behavior therapy) means to balance and compare two things that appear very different or even contradictory. In dialectical behavior therapy, the balance is between change and acceptance (Linehan, 1993a). You need to change the behaviors in your life that are creating more suffering for yourself and others while simultaneously also accepting yourself the way you are. This might sound contradictory, but it’s a key part of this treatment. Dialectical behavior therapy depends on acceptance and change, not acceptance or change.”
