When I hear excuses muttered from another, I'm reminded to stop repeating those of my own.
Friendship is all about opening up and letting in the highest-quality people you can find. It's about trusting a person enough to know that your dreams are supported and safe in his airspace, as well as supporting him in the same way when he needs it.
If someone tells you, "You can't" they really mean, "I can't."
Until you believe you have options, you'll continue to feel stuck.
You make a new life by making new choices.
Find people who love you unconditionally, surround yourself with them, and bring them the same level of intensity.
