Universe, please protect the innocent. Protect the children. Protect the truth. And if you cannot stop a war, at least soften the hearts of those still awake enough to care.

You deserve to be loved.
You deserve to be loved how you want to be loved.
You deserve to be loved how you love.
You deserve to be loved even as you’re healing.
You deserve to be loved without hiding yourself.
You deserve to be loved, flaws and all.

Remind Yourself:

1. Things end, and that’s okay.
2. Tough times are temporary.
3. Trust your intuition.
4. Healing starts with accepting the truth.
5. This, too, shall pass.
6. Never give up on yourself.
7. Focus on growing with clarity.

Say it with me:

Everything that leaves is replaced by something better. I never lack.
