The worst feeling is when someone makes you feel special, then suddenly leaves you hanging and you have to act like you don’t care at all.

Life is a series of pulls back and forth. You want to do one thing, but you are bound to do somehing else. Something hurts you, yet you know it shouldn’t. You take certain things for granted, even when you know you should never take anything for granted.

Exercise your right to choose. Remember this: You can choose your thoughts, your words, and your actions. You can choose to react or be deadma. You can choose your friends, your lunchmates, and you can definitely choose whom to trust—or whom to drop from your circle of trust. You can choose to say NO. Really, it’s all up to you. Embrace that power.

I restore myself when I’m alone.
