#choices

"Your attachment to unhealthy people and bad habits, which offer you no real control, is why you’re spiritually dying and living a life out of balance."

"It is our choices, Harry, that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities."

"Changing is what people do when they have no options left."

"But the past cannot be changed, and we carry our choices with us, forward, into the unknown. We can only move on."

"It’s me and you, or me and knitting. Don’t make me choose. Ugh, #love."

"With the need for the self in the time of another / I left my seaport grim and dear / knowing good work could be made / in the state governed by both Hope and Despair."

"Reputation is what others think of us; character is what God knows of us. When you have spent what feels like eternity trying to repair a few moments of time that destroyed the view others once had of you then you must ask yourself if you have the problem or is it really them? God doesn’t make us try so hard, only enemies do."

"Every game is winnable if you change your mind about what the prize should be and your perspective about the players at the table."

"You can’t control what others think. The only thing you can control is yourself. Some people will look down on you for your choices in life, no matter what they are. You can’t do anything about that. The only thing you can do is decide how to live your own life. And to hell with everybody else"

"Betrayal is an ironic thing. He or she betrays you then you betray yourself. You think you’re showing strength with your anger, but in reality you’re showing how much you still care."

"Choose your love, Love your choice."

"We all make choices, but in the end our choices make us."

"The choices you make now, the people you surround yourself with, they all have the potential to affect your life, even who you are, forever."

"In this life, we have to make many choices. Some are very important choices. Some are not. Many of our choices are between good and evil. The choices we make, however, determine to a large extent our happiness or our unhappiness, because we have to live with the consequences of our choices."

"Sometimes the best and worst times of your life can coincide. It is a talent of the soul to discover the joy in pain—-thinking of moments you long for, and knowing you’ll never have them again. The beautiful ghosts of our past haunt us, and yet we still can’t decide if the pain they caused us out weighs the tender moments when they touched our soul. This is the irony of love."

"And having once chosen, never to seek to return to the crossroads of that decision-for even if one chooses wrongly, the choice cannot be unmade."

"But no one can predict of a certainty what will happen. And none of it will change how I intend to spend the rest of my life. I will live it on my terms. And you... you can have all of me or nothing. I won't be an invalid any longer. Not even if it means losing you."

"I find the best way to love someone is not to change them, but instead, help them reveal the greatest version of themselves."

"There are two primary choices in life: to accept conditions as they exist, or accept the responsibility for changing them"

"Regardless of your faith, you can never escape uncertainty."
