“You may not see it today or tomorrow, but you will look back in a few years and be absolutely perplexed and awed by how every little thing added up and brought you somewhere wonderful - or where you’ve always wanted to be. You will be grateful that things didn’t work out the way you once wanted.”

“Nobody ever warned me about mirrors, so for many years I was fond of them, and believed them to be trustworthy.”

Just started this beautiful book, and if it’s half as lovely as it’s cover, I know I’ll like it.

A little kindness in life never hurt anyone. I’m not telling you to not have boundaries and be stupidly nice and let people step all over you. I’m saying work hard, be kind to others, stand up for yourself/stand your ground and stay humble. You can be aware of your value and be humble, simultaneously. We are all humans - never look down on someone and think that you are better than someone else. We all crave acceptance and love. No matter how talented, rich, successful or educated you believe you are, how you treat people ultimately tells it all.

All the work that we do is leading to our deaths. We forget to play, even when we play. We work, instead of rest. Instead of play. Instead of family. Instead of living. Soon enough, you too will work more than you know, and that will make you dead, from the inside and out. Do not realise until your old, that you could not do the things you wanted. You only live life once.
