One day, after a quarrel with my husband, my subconscious gave me the following

You know what I realized this year: that nothing matters and nothing is really important until you yourself give it importance.... that you can sit with a loved one for a long time and just be silent, not because you have nothing to say, but because you are so good together... that no one is really with me (as one famous person said), no matter what illusions you build about this, you come into this world alone and leave alone too, and you can have a large family, a wide circle of friends, but feel alone.... that friends or loved ones can betray you at any moment, and then pretend as if nothing happened.... that you can rely in this life only on yourself, listen to your conscience and intuition, and stop pleasing others if it turns you inside out, run away from those with whom you feel bad and stop judging others and stop making excuses to them and to yourself.... and in general, live the way you think is right, and not the way society imposes your own .......................And now, whenever I read it, it is always relevant....

One must love themselves, trulely, before they can love another.

I think we may feel alone, but we are never alone. Feelings are deceptive and changeable.
Life is a Gift!

There is much injustice in the world, but we must be forgiving and merciful.
That is freedom!

Um...Great topic, but is it relevant to the Painting Fairy thread?
