Eating healthy and keeping hydrated does wonders; it centers my mood and helps me keep a sharp mind.

If everyone chose love, this world would be magnificent. Always choose love.

Talking to someone, meditating, praying, or just plain crying it out helps. The most important thing after doing any of these things is to let them go. I focus on all of the many blessings surrounding me and all those I love, instead.

Many people see vulnerability as weakness when it's the only way to truly grow and truly love. Love makes me feel vulnerable. It's like saying, "I'm an open book. Here are my flaws, my strengths, where I fall short, my dreams - and I'm choosing to share them with you."

For me, being alove it is being close to nature, either by the beach or near the ocean. When I look around and see how small I am in comparison to all that surrounds me, it fuels me.

Everything happens for a reason, and sometimes, that might be difficult to understand, especially when things don't go the way we plan or expect. If we choose to see things positively and trust in God, he will fulfill his purpose in our lives.
