“Toxic positivity is a cultural force that reinforces: "If you believe it you can achieve it!" "The only thing in your way is you!" "The key to success is a positive mindset!" "If you want to be healthy you must be positive!" "God will never give you more than you can handle!" …
Toxic Positivity leaves us feeling alone, and disconnected. It stops us from communicating. It stifles creativity and change. It silences people. It labels things as "happiness inducing" and “happiness preventing."”

“You always get more respect when you don't have a happy ending.”

“Become your own soulmate, first. The love you're waiting on someone else to give you is a desire to know yourself. It is projection of wanting to see yourself more kindly, through your someone else's eyes. The very way you most long to be loved is the way you need to love yourself to see your own potential, to care for yourself, to hear the sound of your own approval, to build a life you are proud of. Until you are your own soulmate, you will be left asking others to fill needs they were never meant to meet.”

“The more things you own, the more they own you.”

“You can tell more about a person by what he says about others than you can by what others say about him.”

“All that is necessary to awaken to yourself as the radiant emptiness of spirit is to stop seeking something more or better or different, and to turn your attention inward to the awake silence that you are.”

“The protection of your safety and health is more important than the role others want you to play in their chaos.”

“Our souls are tied across universes,
there is unbroken continuity,
you see the love is more powerful than death,
so let the winds of the heavens to dance with you
and give your smile at the other's welcome”

“No one is going to value you more than you value yourself.”

“For Freud, the pursuit of happiness is a distraction from living. It would be better to aim for something different -- a type of life in which you do not need a fantasy of satisfaction in order to find being human an interesting and worthwhile experience… Human beings are more likely to find ways of living well if they do not spend their lives aiming to be happy.”
