Only restitution, forgiving yourself and others, compassion, repentance and living with dignity will ever erase the past.

We all need that someone in our life who's going to motivate us and not stress us, and then we need to treat him the same way we want to be treaded, and no lies, we say what we mean and mean what we say. And always try to build together not destroy each other, if the outcome isn't what you expected, at least you can say you tried., but also remember that pressure makes diamonds people. Not everything will be easy between you and me and him and her and them. Its all give and take.. Reward and sacrifice. Try to love those who love you, not just the ones who are easiest to love, try to help those who need you, may you will need the help someday. Try to forgive those who hurt you, may you hurted someone once upon a time and try to forget those who leave you, may god knew that they aren't good for you. One of my main goals on the planet is to encourage people to empower themselves like what I'm trying now, I try to makes you positive, to make a positive change in your life, it will never happen unless me or you or him or her make it happen. They said 'be the change you want to see in the world' I'm like that and I would like everyone to be like me.
