Sometimes, the person who is supposed to be the strongest is the one who needs the most help.
We're all broken in our own way, but that doesn't mean we can't be beautiful.
The hardest part about being strong is that no one ever realizes how much it costs.
Invisible doesn't mean insignificant.
We can't control the actions of others, only our reactions to them.
You don't have to be loud to be strong.
Strength isn't measured by the loudness of your voice, but by the depth of your character.
The only person who can truly break you is yourself.
Love yourself first, because that's who you'll be spending the rest of your life with.
Being invisible doesn't mean being unheard.
Strength isn't just about what you can handle, but also about what you can let go of.
You're not defined by your mistakes, but by how you recover from them.
