QUOTABLES:

“If we don't check ourselves, we confuse our desire not to hurt people with allowing people to overstep our boundaries.”

“You can't give what you don't have. And if I don't have love, and care, and compassion for me, how am I going to be able to give love, care, and compassion to other people?”

“Sometimes it can take months to get back to that happy, peaceful headspace. One weekend of your life can destroy all your hard work if you're not careful.”
