The truth is, everyone is going to hurt you. You just got to find the ones worth suffering for. Look around, look closely at the people in your life right now, and ask yourself about each one: 'Is (s)he worth suffering for?'

Respect yourself enough to walk away from anything that no longer serves you, grows you or makes you happy. If you aren't being treated with love and respect, check your price tag. Maybe you've marked yourself down. It's YOU who tells people what your worth is. Get off of the clearance rack and get behind the glass where they keep the valuables.

You know what you’re doing is wrong but your emotions make you compromise and sell your soul for a good feeling, a good time. What feels good doesn’t always produce the results that make us feel proud. Pride vs. shame. It’s your choice! “As water reflects a face, so one’s life reflects the heart.” Proverbs 27:19
