We are more than our labels. It’s liberating to remove ourselves for one label, but if we just replace with another we’re captured again.

What do we have if we don’t have trust. We are not able to be authentic self when can’t trust the person to cherish it.

We live in a system where the effect of justice is more retribution than it is rehabilitation. Why do we think revenge is the answer to our hurt?

We tend to confuse happiness and pleasure. To simplify, pleasure is stimulated outside of us whereas happiness is created within.

We live in a world that makes us believe that we are separate from each other. I do believe that this is the reason for most of our troubles.

You are not your mistakes. Mistakes aren’t permanent and we should keep that the guilt that may come with a mistake.

The opinions of ourselves and others are not our own. A lot of them are project from other’s emotions that need attending to.

I feel like we’re ready to punish people who don’t follow the rules any chance we get. But the end of the day, does it really work?

We know from childhood that criticism never works, yet we still do it. Why is it? Maybe it has more to do with our ego.

There are going to be times where we get knocked off of our path. When this happens, we have to make sure that we keep going.
