1. The present moment is only lonely if you allow yourself to become overwhelmed by the negative frequency of emotions. You can be in the present moment without succumbing to the frequency of loneliness, but it takes time at first to adjust. You spent all your time inside the energy field of others and are now just stepping into your own field, which will feel foreign at first.
2. It's strange to look back on a period when specific people weren't a part of your life. What it was like back then, and what it would be like if you'd never met. How much would've changed? Would the progress you made since have occurred differently without that person in your life?
3. You don’t mourn the past because it was perfect. You mourn it because it was innocent.
4. Every encounter you have with others - is meant to improve yourself, because you often gravitate towards the ones who are either like you, have something to teach you, or can protect the vulnerable parts of you.
5. Curiosity allows buried questions to make it to the surface and when you observe them, they collapse into your reality. If you become aware, you can make change.
6. Always strive to be the best version of yourself, even when the two of you are in disagreement of what that is.
7. Do not let the world inside burn down your only home. Though chaotic as it may be, there is always a river nearby to put out the flames. It is only a matter of knowing how to carry the water.
8. When you let others decide the person that you are or ought to be, you will never grow, never evolve into the person that you are meant to be. Their judgments should not be imposed on your present moment character. You are your own character creator.
9. You can either move from love, or from fear. Your heart being torn apart comes from the same place as your heart being put back together — and that is in movement. Nothing happens without emotion, stories aren’t written, adventures aren’t explored & human connection can never be felt. Emotion is energy that is in motion, & without that motion is stillness; calm, yet chaotic — because of uncertainty. Though within that calm, there is still movement, uncertainty being a lost ship trying its hardest to find a shore to dock at. Each shore, however, is uncharted to the ship’s captain — and that captain is anxiety.
