. You can be the ripest, juiciest peach in the world, and there’s still going to be somebody who hates peaches.

Here's a fact of life - Not everyone is going to like you.
The sooner you accept this fact the better. I'm not always a nice person. I don't pretend to be. I know I'm a bitch. I know I can be nasty. When people hurt me I want to hurt them back. I'm selfish. I have an awful temper. I've said some things in anger that I can never take back. I don't like to be disliked. In fact I used to obsess over being liked. I hated the thought of people not liking me, I used to hide how I truly felt, I used to belittle myself to make others feel good but then I realized I'm allowed emotions and opinions. Even though I don't like all the bad things I've mentioned about myself I know there's lots of good in me at the same time. The problem with society is the moment you say you 'love' yourself is the moment they call you arrogant but today I realized that I may not be everyone's cup of tea but I like who I am. I don't have to agree with opinions I don't agree with just so I'll be liked. I don't have to be liked by everyone. I should just be the best person I can be. If you're worrying over what people are thinking or saying about you you will never achieve anything. You will never stand up for something you believe in. You will never break away from the crowd and do something you really want to do because no one else is doing it. The people in this world who have achieved great things are the people who were brave enough to do something different. You are who you are because of the life experiences you've had. Which is why you have to get as many experiences as possible. If you want to travel and you're friends don't - don't be afraid to go alone! If you want to climb a mountain but people tell you that you'll never be able to do it - do it.

Our Greatest Fear —Marianne Williamson

it is our light not our darkness that most frightens us

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.
Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
It is our light not our darkness that most frightens us.
We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous,
talented and fabulous?

Actually, who are you not to be?.
Your playing small does not serve the world.
There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other
people won't feel insecure around you.

It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone.
And as we let our own light shine,
we unconsciously give other people
permission to do the same.

As we are liberated from our own fear,
Our presence automatically liberates others.
