or who you want to become.
You never know who these people may be
but then you lock eyes with them,
you know that very moment that they will affect your life in some profound way
and sometimes things happen to you at the time that may seem painful and unfair,
but in reflection you realize that without overcoming those obstacles

If someone hurts you,
betrays you or breaks your heart,
forgive them
because they have helped you learn about trust
and the importance of being cautious to whom you open your heart to.
If someone loves you,
love them back unconditionally,
not only because they love you,
but also because they are teaching, you to love
and to open your heart and eyes to little things.
Make every day count.
Appreciate every moment
and take from it everything that you possibly can,
for you may never be able to experience it again.
Talk to people you have never talked to before,
and actually listen.
Let yourself fall in love,
break free and set your sights high.
Hold your head up
because you have every right to.
Tell yourself you are a great individual
for if you don't believe in yourself,
no one else will believe in you.
Create your own life
and then go out and live it.
