I should've known this years ago.

I should've known this years ago.

Not everyone is going to like you. 

Not everyone is going to acknowledge your presence. 

     

Always be kind to others, no matter the situation. 

If you constantly feel like youre walking on eggshells around them, they’re not your type of people.

You get to choose the people you surround yourself with, so choose the ones who are choosing you back.

 

Never make permanent decisions based on temporary emotions. 

Someone's effort is their direct reflection of interest in you. 

Never punish the one in front of you for the mistakes made by the one behind you. 

Always listen to the person you're in a relationship with.

Remember ... having high standards keep you from having low quality experiences.

If your absence doesn't affect them then your presence never mattered. 

The longer you entertain what's not meant for you, the longer you postpone what is. 

Always do for others and never expect anything in return. 

Friendship is one of the most important things you can invest in, in life. Make the time.

Love didn't hurt you. Someone who doesn't know how to love hurt you. Don't confuse the two. 

When your light starts exposing other people's shadows, they might try to convince you that your radiance is toxic, especially if they lack emotional maturity. Love yourself and keep shining.

Take my advice and always remember.... to surround yourself with people who truly want the best for you and your mental health. 

Because your circle ....... it matters.
