If our focus is on how we are supposed to feel then we deny ourselves the joy of freedom in how we truly feel.

Sometimes the one thing you need for growth is the one thing you are afraid to do.

Don’t hate people who show you what’s wrong with you. They are your mirror, they are your true friends.

Make an effort with tenacity to make real impact that works and don't just create an impression with deception.

Be transparent. Let's build a community that allows hard questions and honest conversations so we can stir up transformation in one another.

Victimnoun \ˈvik-təm\ 1. The moment you tell everyone you have a mental disorder, in order to excuse your behavior.

Who we are is who we ACTUALLY are. It's never who we create in order for people to see. You might really hate who you actually are, so then you create a sub-genus type of yourself for other people to see. But that never changes who you are. The sub-genus type won't change your genus. The only way we change who we are is by looking at ourselves in the mirror long enough to make us vomit over our disgusting waywardness and long enough to fall in love with our strengths. But you can't just fall in love with your strengths. You also need to vomit over your hypocrisies and all of your other bullshit. And you can't just vomit, either. You also have to clean it up and embrace yourself afterwards. This is how you change your genus.

To be real is to be who you are according to the purpose which God wants you to accomplish but not to be who people want you to be according to what they think you should be.

Be the girl you want your daughter to be. Be the girl you want your son to date. Be classy, be smart, be real, but most importantly be nice.

People of different dispositions make the world go round. That's why it's insanity to try to be someone else.
