“You may be a disaster for a day, a month, or a year. Just don’t be a disaster forever.”

If you gave them once the love that they did not deserve, they will come back for more.

We don’t make ourselves compassionate; we are born compassionate.

Life is not fair, but we can choose to be fair humans even if life or other humans choose to be unfair to us.

The reality you live in is partially up to you. The fantasy you live in is entirely up to you.

You can draw a path for your life and have all of your goals set. You can change yourself as much as possible and change things around you just to reach those goals.

Your opinion of me does not equal my self-worth.

Letting go does not mean that you are giving up or that you are weak. It could just mean that you are no longer allowing what hurts you to control you.

Take responsibility for the choices you could have made but restrained yourself from making.

Never wish them pain. That’s not who you are. If they caused you pain, they must have pain inside. Wish them healing. That’s what they need.

If they don’t appreciate your presence, they may never recognize your absence.

My home will never welcome me if I don’t welcome me.

Never underestimate the power of fate. It can knock down the highest of goals that seem guaranteed in your life.

It was the weirdest thing ever. I said to myself: why are people always so okay with not having me in their lives?

Own your healing as you’ve owned your pain.

If you ever get the chance to treat them the way they treated you, I hope you choose to walk away and do better.

Don’t judge people and expect them to stand by your side.

Failure is simply the non-presence of success. But a fiasco is a disaster of mythic proportions.

Sensible people take precautions against possible disasters, and of course one man’s idea of precaution is another man’s silly worry.

One is left with the horrible feeling now that war settles nothing; that to win a war is as disastrous as to lose one.

To win a war is as disasterous as to lose one.

Sometimes nothing is happening and all that disaster just happens in your mind.

We made a mess of this love, you and I. Forever the most beautiful disaster.

I am above the weakness of seeking to establish a sequence of cause and effect, between the disaster and the atrocity.

The COVID-19 pandemic is a humanitarian disaster. Please wear a mask.
