Happiness can be just as contagious as misery.
You would not want to be responsible for someone else's happiness, so please do not hold someone else responsible for yours!
Forgiveness isn't about condoning what has happened to you or someone else's actions against you.
You are never stuck, unless you are choosing to stay there. You are never limited, unless you choose to limit yourself. You are never less than, unless you choose to see yourself this way. You will never fail, unless you choose failure as an option. You are powerful beyond belief!
The best thing you can do for yourself is to accept other people’s behavior and the choices they make. You may not agree with them, you may even wish them to do things differently, but accept it. Just as you would appreciate other people accepting the choices that you make.
Unhappiness can be like a virus spreading from one person, to the next person, to the next one and so on. When someone is mean or rude to you, do not let their unhappiness infect your own life. If you are the unhappy one, please quarantine yourself so you do not infect others!
One of the biggest favors that you can do for yourself is to accept your loved ones for who they are, and not be constantly disappointed because they are not who you think they should be.
When you are relaxed about where you are at in life, things tend to flow more fluidly. It is as if you poke three holes in a bucket of water.

When people realize that they have been forgiven of everything, it becomes a little bit easier for them to forgive others.
I would rather have gotten married than have a Hollywood contract.
A lot of people got lost in Hollywood while trying to become a star. They lost themselves.
Control is an illusion. You will never be able to control anything, any situation, or anyone without consent. So in actuality there is no control, there is only consent!
When a person goes into a relationship emotionally needy, they are not going to have discernment in choosing people.
If we lived in a world with no fear, then you would never discover the courage you have within.
My nemesis - my downfall, if you will - was relationships, and trying to fulfill them.
I was told a lie from the pit of hell: that my baby was just a blob of tissue. The aftermath of abortion can equally deadly for both mother and unborn child. A woman who has an abortion is sentenced to bear that for the rest of her life.
