"Reality is merely an illusion, 
albeit a very persistent one." 


- Albert Einstein

“The keys to patience are acceptance and faith. Accept things as they are, and look realistically at the world around you. Have faith in yourself and in the direction you have chosen.”-Ralph Marston

‎"There is no scarcity of opportunity to make a living at what you love; there's only a scarcity of resolve to make it happen." 

- Wayne Dyer

If you desire love in your life, cultivate it yourself, in your own dreams and desires, in the mark you want to make during your brief span here, in the lessons learned, in the smiles as much as the scars. Fill yourself up with love, rather than waiting for someone to do it for you.

the opposite of love is apathy, and hate is really the same as love.  if you're so consumed by hatred of someone, you might as well be loving them,  because you're thinking about them for the same amount of time.
