true self-love is when you appreciate where you are and who you are, regardless of any transformation you aspire to. - Vex King

By developing awareness of the present moment, we can maintain a higher vibration because we avoid being paralysed by past pain or future fear.

No relationship is a total waste. Despite how painful they may be, they teach you about what you want and what you don’t want. They can remind you that you deserve better. And if it’s painful enough, a bad relationship can be the catalyst for a journey inward. But no relationship, either with a past lover or friend or family member, is worth damaging future opportunities to connect with others or yourself.

Simplify your circle of friends.
Keep those who add value to your life; remove those who don’t.
Less is always more when your less means more.
