“Friend, if you don’t learn to deal with unforgiveness and the walls you’ve put up, you will find yourself in a prison. It’s not the offender that is held captive, it’s you.”
― Madison Prewett Troutt, Made for This Moment: Standing Firm with Strength, Grace, and Courage

“Why wait for the real thing when I can settle for a fake one that looks similar? This is also how many of our minds work when it comes to love and relationships, even unknowingly. Why do we so often settle for a knockoff version of real love? Is it because it’s easier? Because it doesn’t cost as much? Because we can obtain it faster? We settle for a less-than version of what we could have because maybe we are tired of being alone, we are tired of waiting, or we fear we might not find anything better. But you don’t need more of what you’ve been settling for; you need something that will last.”
