We are what we are, because of the vibrations of thought which we pick up and register, through the stimuli of our daily environment. - Vex King

We make life all about a future that exists only in our imagination and completely miss what's happening in front of us

We assume success is about being famous, rich
and owning expensive things. But if you’ve pulled
yourself out of a dark place, that’s a great success in
itself. Don’t forget that you’re winning each day you
don’t give up and you make it through to the next.

To establish this closeness with someone else, we need to have something called ‘reciprocal self-disclosure’ – this means being able to communicate often with each other, without fear or criticism, in an accepting way.
