True friends are not allies, they are lifelong companions.
I think as you grow older, you look for very different things in people.
Honesty.
Loyalty.
Integrity.
Consistency.
But most of all, you look for those who will stand right by your side in the time of tough, rough or rumble.
Those who are right there, and in that moment, you know they’ve got you & you got them.

Take chances, take a lot of them.
Because honestly, no matter where you end up and with whom it always end up the way it should be.
Your mistakes make you who you are.
You learn and grow with each choice you make.
Everything is worth it.
Say how you feel, always.
Be you, and be okay with it.
Be a shameless authentic version of yourself.

EIGHT SENTENCES I WISH I’D READ SOONER;
• These hard times, this pain, these lessons; one day they’ll be your strength, your awareness, your blessings.
• Stop expecting honesty from people who lie to themselves.
• You’ll never look good trying to make someone look bad.
• Save your explanations for those that are determined to understand you.
• Give your silence to those that are determined to misunderstand you.
• Your life is too short to be unhappy. 5 days a week in exchange for 2 days of freedom; that’s not how you are supposed to live your life. Live & experience life everyday.
• Don’t be upset from people you don’t respect.
• Life is not tiring. Wanting life to be a certain way but not having the confidence to make it that way, is tiring.

You have to force yourself to get up early.
You have to take care of your responsibilities.
You have to be honest with yourself.
You have to evaluate your priorities.
Nobody is going to do it for you these are your goals & your dreams everything you want starts and ends with you.

BRUTAL LIFE LESSONS;
1. No one will ever be able to make you feel loved unless you love yourself.
2. We will all eventually become old and unattractive in the eyes of society.
3. You can’t always get what/who you want.
4. Love, dating, and relationship can’t be figured out logically.
They require empathy, vulnerability, truth, consistency and honesty.
5. You can’t change others.
6. The person who cares less has the most power in a relationship.
7. When in love, everyone becomes an idiot.

Certain things i wish i knew sooner:
1. If taking care of yourself means letting someone down, then let someone down.
2. Never let rejection lead to self-rejection.
3. What happened yesterday may not be your responsibility, but how you behave today is upto you.
4. Obsessing over the things that society said you’re supposed to do will kill your happiness.
Everyone is different and your path to happiness will be different too.
5. My low maintenance relationships are my strongest.
6. If you want to enjoy your life, don’t subscribe to other people’s definition of ‘fun‘.
Your fun belongs to you, make sure you define it.
7. Stop expecting honesty from people who lie to themselves.
People who are inconsistent aren’t going anywhere in their life, stop planning a journey with them.
8. If you learn to read books, you can be smart.
If you learn to read yourself, you can be anything.

(This video got nothing to do with the post above. I like SNL for good reasons. No matter how hard i try, i struggle to understand how & why there’s a thing called TIKTOK in existence. I mean, how this 15 seconds of entertainment on loop works!! If i want to watch some dance, i will watch a STEP UP movie, for music there’s YouTube. I have a big dislike for such apps like TIKTOK which fuel instant gratification in young generation.)

Violence is the easy way out and it only leads to more violence.
We need people in this world who are willing to find solutions through peace, through communication, honesty, and diplomacy.
World peace may seem impossible, but it’s worth aiming for.
You don’t have to be a politician to stop wars and practice peace.
Make sure every word you speak and every action is coming from a place of love.
If you and I are having a single thought of violence or hatred against anyone in the world at this moment, we are contributing to the wounding of the world.
