“Life will break you. Nobody can protect you from that, and living alone won’t either, for solitude will also break you with its yearning. You have to love. You have to feel. It is the reason you are here on earth. You are here to risk your heart. You are here to be swallowed up. And when it happens that you are broken, or betrayed, or left, or hurt, or death brushes near, let yourself sit by an apple tree and listen to the apples falling all around you in heaps, wasting their sweetness. Tell yourself you tasted as many as you could.”

— Louise Erdrich, from The Painted Drum

“Be thou always ravished by love, starlight running Down and pulling back the veil of the heart,”

Worship yourself. Do not tarnish your body, mind, soul, or character for attention or for others. You are worthy of your own praise and once you see that the world changes for you. It gives to those who seek and helps those who help themselves. So don't be selfish, but do not give yourself up for less then what you are worth.
