“Life isn’t supposed to be an all or nothing battle between misery and bliss. Life isn’t supposed to be a battle at all.

When your day’s not perfect, it’s not a failure or a terrible loss. It’s just another day.”

—Marianne Williamson (via idledancer)
“I hope you live a life you’re proud of. If you find that you’re not, I hope you have the strength to start all over again.”
