This vs This...

So, there's this...

"I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel." -Maya Angelou

"Don't make someone a priority in your life when you're only an option in theirs"

"You're going to come across people in your life who will say all the right words at all the right times. But in the end, it's always their actions you should judge them by. It's actions, not words, that matter." -Nicholas Sparks

But then, there's this...

"Scars remind us of where we've been; they don't have to dictate where we're going." -Criminal Minds

 "In the end, no matter how your plans turn out, no matter how others treat you, you get to choose what your life looks like." -To Write Love On Her Arms

"I have found the paradox, that if you love until it hurts, there can be no more hurt, only more love."-Mother Teresa

 "I chose to forgive. Putting this decision into action hasn’t been the simplest thing I’ve ever done. Sometimes when your heart is smashed into a million pieces, you have to dig pretty deep to collect all of them again, and along the way, anger and bitterness and resentment rear their ugly heads and try to convince you that it will be easier to just give in to them. And sometimes, that’s a pretty tempting idea. Those are the days when you have to take a deep breath and choose, again, the path to forgiveness. And if that’s not enough, those are the days when you find someone who will help you want forgiveness, and you sit with them and cry about how unfair it all is until you settle down and realize that what you’re doing feels terrible and the forgiveness thing is just a better idea anyway. And after enough days, and maybe months, of deciding again and again to forgive, it suddenly becomes easy. And you’re finally not angry any longer." -To Write Love On Her Arms
