There are so many people out there who would love for you…
“There are so many people out there who would love for you to act in a manner that flatters and suits them the best, instead of loving you for who you really are. Remember that the realest people that you will ever encounter in your life, the people that you should make sure stick around, are those who have love for you no matter what. These people will never try to change who you are personally. They may see some bad habits that you have, and they may try to urge you away from continuing to repeat these bad habits, but they will never try to change who you are at your deepest levels. Not every relationship will work out the way that we want it to, and we have to know to stay away from those who have no desire for us to live a successful life, as our actual selves”
