    Abigail Van Buren
    “JUST FOR TODAY, I will live through this day only. I will not brood about yesterday or obsess about tomorrow. I will not set far-reaching goals or try to overcome all of my problems at once.

    I know that I can do something for 24 hours that would overwhelm me if I had to keep it up for a lifetime.

    JUST FOR TODAY, I will be happy. I will not dwell on thoughts that depress me. If my mind fills with clouds, I will chase them away and fill it with sunshine.

    JUST FOR TODAY, I will accept what is. I will face reality. I will correct those things that I can correct and accept those I cannot.

    JUST FOR TODAY, I will improve my mind. I will read something that requires effort, thought and concentration. I will not be a mental loafer.

    JUST FOR TODAY, I will make a conscious effort to be agreeable. I will be kind and courteous to those who cross my path, and I'll not speak ill of others. I will improve my appearance, speak softly, and not interrupt when someone else is talking. Just for today, I will refrain from improving anybody but myself.

    JUST FOR TODAY, I will do something positive to improve my health. If I'm a smoker, I'll quit. If I'm overweight, I will eat healthfully -- if only for today. And not only that, I will get off the couch and take a brisk walk, even if it's only around the block.

    JUST FOR TODAY, I will gather the courage to do what is right and take the responsibility for my own actions.”

    Akif Kichloo
    “The universe on your skin is empty
    from all the silence on your tongue.
    Forgive yourself. Let your body heal
    from all the wounds you did not inflict
    on yourself. Drop the sword you carry
    on your shoulder for self-defense.
    Lower the armor you hold high up
    for protection. Those who harmed you
    are not going to come back. Those who
    have left never intended to return.”
    Akif Kichloo, The Feeling May Remain

    Akif Kichloo
    “I have a body too young and a mind full of years. Everything in me has witnessed its own ending. I have lived through nightmares and perished in blissful dreams. What all that’s left— eats me from within but still melts me from without, and that is where my humility takes birth.”
    Akif Kichloo

    Akif Kichloo
    “They came and they left.
    You cried, but you stood your ground.
    You stayed tethered to hope as well as
    committed to dignified dreams
    and little victories of day-to-day life.

    You felt different.
    Then you started to change.
    Your smile returned with reticence
    before completely taking over your face.

    Today, you are no longer afraid to let that smile be there,
    and now you understand it was not about them.
    It was never about anyone else.
    This was about you from the day you were born.
    This was about you learning to love yourself—
    not letting the inferiority of the external corrupt
    the piety of the internal.

    This was your personal revolution.
    This was the uprising of your lifetime.

    And you won.”
    Akif Kichloo, The Feeling May Remain

  • #23
    Akif Kichloo
    “People often compare
    depression to drowning.

    That is not even close.

    Consider sitting in a dark room
    scared and confused—
    Choking on something you
    know nothing about,
    For reasons you cannot comprehend.

    That is depression.

    When you are drowning,
    you can still flail your arms,
    call for help, and try your best
    to keep afloat.

    In depression, you do nothing.
    Absolutely nothing.”
    Akif Kichloo

    Akif Kichloo

    J.R.R. Tolkien
    “It cannot be seen, cannot be felt,
    Cannot be heard, cannot be smelt,
    It lies behind stars and under hills,
    And empty holes it fills,
    It comes first and follows after,
    Ends life, kills laughter.”
    J.R.R. Tolkien, The Hobbit, or There and Back Again
