"The only thing you can control is how you love someone, not what they do with the love you give them."

"Be so rooted in yourself that nobody's absence or presence can disturb your peace."

"The older I get, the less I want to be impressive. I want mornings that don't rush me. Conversations that don't drain me. A life that doesn't ask me to explain myself."

"And for my final act of peace, I choose to let the unanswered questions stay unanswered."

"Your next season is going to make some people wish they had treated you differently."

"You deserve a healthy love with someone who hears you, sees you, understands you, appreciates you, supports you, and loves you. Someone who is patient, communicates clearly, and creates a calm safe space to heal, grow, and bloom together. A love you don't have to heal from."
