Over 24 years, I have learned these crucial 24 things:
1. Self-love is essential, you must love yourself before somebody else can
2. People say "follow your heart"... Not in every situation, instead listen to your heart, act with your brain
3. Time heals almost everything, give it some time, experience the change
4. Sometimes we expect more from people because we would be willing to do that much for them
5. Life isn't always fair, but it's still good
6. Never let loyalty make a fool of you
7. What doesn't kill you really does make you stronger
8. Hard times will ALWAYS reveal your true friends, the ones who said "I'll be here for you" and more importantly PROVED it
9. It's okay to not be okay sometimes, just don't make it a permanent destination
10. It's okay to cry, it can be helpful and release stress + pain inside
11. Overthinking will destroy your happiness and your mood. It will make everything worse than it actually is, so always take a deep breath, exhale, have faith, and remember what's meant to be will be
12. The one that loves you will never leave you even if there are hundreds of reasons to give up, they will find one to hold on
13. Life is too short to wake up hating somebody, no matter how much they've wronged you
14. The one thing that you have that nobody else has is YOU. Your voice, your mind, your story, your vision
15. Life becomes easier when you learn to accept the apology you never got
16. Never be too hard on yourself, it's okay to make mistakes and fail sometimes
17. Always be kind, no matter the situation. Kindness can go a long way and changes everything
18. Let your hands be so busy catching blessings that you don't have the capacity to hold onto grudges
19. We're all bad in someone's story
20. Always have patience and trust your journey
21. Not all storms come to disrupt your life, some come to clear your path
22. No one owes you anything and you owe yourself everything
23. Don't let the person who didn't love you keep you from the one that will
24. Above all, it's God alone who will sustain you forever
