God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, courage to change the things I can, and wisdom to know the difference.
Because true belonging only happens when we present our authentic, imperfect selves to the world, our sense of belonging can never be greater than our level of self-acceptance.
When you get to a place where you understand that love and belonging, your worthiness, is a birthright and not something you have to earn, anything is possible.
Most things will be okay eventually, but not everything will be. Sometimes you’ll put up a good fight and lose. Sometimes you’ll hold on really hard and realize there is no choice but to let go. Acceptance is a small, quiet room.
You have to accept whatever comes and the only important thing is that you meet it with courage and with the best that you have to give.
God’s love for me is perfect because it’s based on Him, not on me. So, even when I failed, He kept loving me.
Spend your brief moment according to nature’s law, and serenely greet the journey’s end as an olive falls when it is ripe, blessing the branch that bare it, and giving thanks to the tree that gave it life.
Value everyone’s contribution and treat everyone with respect.
It is not impermanence that makes us suffer. What makes us suffer is wanting things to be permanent when they are not.
I may not be perfect, but I’m always me.
I’m no beauty queen, I’m just beautiful me.
Be happy with being you. Love your flaws. Own your quirks. And know that you are just as perfect as anyone else, exactly as you are.
You are imperfect, permanently and inevitably flawed. And you are beautiful.
Here is my secret: I don’t mind what happens.
You deserve to take up space.
You are more powerful than you know; you are beautiful just as you are.
Learning to love yourself is the greatest love of all.
I’m proud of myself. I like the way I’m made.
All is well. You did not come here to fix a broken world. The world is not broken. You came here to live a wonderful life. And if you can learn to relax a little and let it all in, you will begin to see the universe present you with all that you have asked for.
The fastest way to get to a new-and-improved situation is to make peace with your current situation.
