STRENGTH. You're only as strong as you believe you are. You do have the will power to not let people get to you. Now whether or not you chose to use it is up to you.Don't say you're not strong enough. Being happy and not letting people interfere with your happiness is only as complicated as you make it out to be. You can be happy. You just have to believe in yourself and actually try. Quit saying life sucks and open your eyes and show yourself the good. Life is what you make it. Life has ugly traits, but a beautiful personality.

You can't 'change' people. They have to on their own. If they don't want to change they're not going to. If they don't set their heart on it and actually try as hard as possible then nothing will ever be different. If you really care about someone who really cares about you...Listen to them when they tell you should do something. Especially if you know it's the right thing to do. People need friends. You need someone who can tell them the difference between right and wrong when you don't know it. Everyone needs someone to lean on. Someone they can trust. Back to my point though, you know that you make your own decisions and choices, so if something is going to change about you...You're going to be the one to change it, not someone else. So always remember that when you're thinking to yourself...'I'm going to change him/her.'....

I believe that people flaunt the word 'love' around way too much. Half of those people don't even know the meaning. Or they think they love someone but in the end they really didn't. People sometimes say 'I love you' to someone simply because they said it and they feel they need to say it back, whether they mean it or not doesn't matter to them..They just felt the need to say it back. Also, just because people get married..That does not mean they are IN love. They may love each other but it takes a lot to be in love with someone. Less than half of the married couples in the world are actually madly in love with each other. But, when you are in love with someone you know it. It's not something you just say, it's something you feel. If two people are feeling this they should definitely never let it go because they more and likely will never experience that feeling ever again.
