“Letting go doesn't mean that you don't care about someone anymore. It's just realizing that the only person you really have control over is yourself.”

“I know you don't want to hear this but someone has to say it! You are out of control! I mean they're just shoes… let it go!”

“Most of the things I write are things that are personal to me. I realized that that's the only way to really be honest. If you go writing about someone else you're just guessing at it.”

“I still don't think it's pathetic to cry over someone. It just means you care about them deeply and you're sad.”

“I'm not going to do just nothing anymore."
"You mean never again?"
"Well, not so much. They don't let you.”

“Rejection doesn't mean that you aren't good enough…
it just means the other person failed to realize what you have to offer.”

“This is why I forgive, but I don't forget. When you forget someone, the forgiveness doesn't mean anything anymore.”

“If you zoom close-if you get really close to someone, if you really get close to yourself-then you lose the other person, you lose yourself entirely. You get so close you can't see anything anymore.”

“It's much easier to get over someone if you can delude yourself into thinking you never really cared that much.”

“… if you really care about someone, you must remain unconcerned about how the person may perceive you. Friends or family members may feel disturbed that you won’t take drugs, drink alcohol, or even eat meat with them, and that you won’t let them do these things in your home. However, remember that caring about other people means that you don’t want to see them do harm to themselves. If a person doesn’t want to associate with you anymore, then you don’t need that kind of association.”
