“The more I understand the mind and the human experience, the more I begin to suspect there is no such thing as unhappiness; there is only ungratefulness.”

Be happy with who you are and what you do, and you can do anything you want.

Reading the Bible will help you get to know the word, but it’s when you put it down and live your life that you get to know the author.

At all times, Dare to be!

Your opinion is not my reality.

The most powerful relationship you will ever have is the relationship with yourself.

I believe in the immeasurable power of love; that true love can endure any circumstance and reach across any distance.

Happiness is not the absence of problems, it’s the ability to deal with them.

In your own life it’s important to know how spectacular you are.

Most haters are stuck in a poisonous mental prison of jealousy and self-doubt that blinds them to their own potentiality.

It only takes a split second to smile and forget, yet to someone that needed it, it can last a lifetime.

You didn’t just cheat on me; you cheated on us. You didn’t just break my heart; you broke our future.

It is important that we forgive ourselves for making mistakes. We need to learn from our errors and move on.

If people refuse to look at you in a new light and they can only see you for what you were, only see you for the mistakes you’ve made, if they don’t realize that you are not your mistakes, then they have to go.

A kind gesture can reach a wound that only compassion can heal.

The problem that we have with a victim mentality is that we forget to see the blessings of the day. Because of this, our spirit is poisoned instead of nourished.

Love yourself. Forgive yourself. Be true to yourself. How you treat yourself sets the standard for how others will treat you.

My nature is to get instant gratification. On stage, I can feel everybody’s anticipation. I know what they want, I know what I’m going to give them, I know when I’m going to give it to them, I know when they want it.

My kids get everything they want and are raised well.

You’ll know you’ve healed when you find gratitude in the pain that once broke you.

Maybe the lesson is not how best to chase the things we think will make us happy, but learning to be happy wherever we are instead.

Obviously I’m very grateful ‘Bad Guy’ is doing so well – it’s shocking and surprising and gratifying – but I do think it’s important to try to make the next song that people are gonna be excited about.

Everything I need is everywhere I am.

Her core is filled with gratitude and blooming energy.

A bird in the hand is worth more than a Bush.
