Free yourself

Don’t make yourself into a permanent victim of a temporary condition. Forgive, get over it, move on.

The vast majority of people don’t care that you’ve had your feelings hurt. They have better, more enriching things to focus on, and so do you.

Breathe in, breathe out. Gather pure strength from your past, and use it to move positively into the future.

Learn from what’s happened, laugh at what’s happened. Know that it’s over, and refuse to let it hold you back or get you down.

When someone has hurt you, that’s never a good reason to keep hurting yourself with anger and resentment. Smile, and be thankful that your future is yours to choose.

Your life is filled with great possibilities. Free yourself to keep on following the very best ones.

— Ralph Marston
