Favourite words of wisdom to get you through

[cantolupo]

Just stinging from a breakup and was wondering what people's favourite words of wisdom or sayings were to make them feel better or the ones that stand out as being completely true?

One of mine is "what's for you won't go by you"

[Jackie0]

You will never be more alone than when you're with the wrong person.

[cantolupo]

very true

[RedMapleLeaf]

This too shall pass

[FredaMayor]

Never apologise, never explain: those against you won't believe you but your friends already know.

This rang true for me when my first marriage ended some years ago.

[TheRealQueenOfEngland]

When a person tells you that you hurt them, you don't get to decide that you didn't.

[FredaMayor]

Also the fable of the turtle/frog and the scorpion.

[cantolupo]

Ahh, such good ones. That fable really hits home

[BusyCee]

What doesn't kill you makes you stronger. Was my mums favourite and is actually quite true.

I'm sorry about your break up, you poor thing. Have some

[ArmsofBathurst]

It will all be the same a hundred years hence.

I'm stinging too.

[cantolupo]

I also like "remember sometimes not gettign what you want is a wonderful stroke of luck"

hugs to anyone else stinging!

[twirlypoo]

When someone tells you who they are, listen.

Sorry to hear about your breakup. It's rubbish

[MadeMan]

Don't eat the yellow snow.

[BoneyBackJefferson]

When you point at someone there are three fingers pointing back

[HappyHopefulStrongerAlone]

Good boundaries make for better relationships.

[Twowrongsdontmakearight]

Nothing is ever the end of the world. Things will get better - from my lovely grandma.

[Guiltypleasures001]

No one can make you feel inferior without your consent

Eleanor Roosevelt

[TheKnackeredChef]

"Ships sail East and ships sail west
While the selfsame breezes blow.
'Tis the set of the sail, and not the gale
Which sends them where they go."

[HardWorkButTheyMakeMeSmile]

Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I cannot accept, and the wisdom to know the difference

[ittooshallpass]

There's a lid for every pot!

[Fluffybrain]

Shit happens

[Notasinglefuckwasgiven]

No feeling is permanent and I'm still breathing

[sugar21]

Be grateful for what you've got
Because some folk piss in a pot
They haven't a roof over their head
And here's you lying in a bed

[Tapirs]

Mine's a song. It gives me a sense of perspective when things are shite and helps me see the bigger picture.

[beelover]

You never know how strong you are until being strong is all you can be.

[kerbs]

People can only treat you how you let them.

If you don't value yourself, no one else will.
