I've recently learned to believe in something a good friend of mine has tried to convince me of for years...to take care of myself and my own needs, first; otherwise, I can't be successful as a partner, a mother or friend. He's always been a big believer that your own happiness (or lack thereof) directly reflects on your other relationships and life in general...and I've come to realize that in a big, big way.

If you get a chance, take it. If it changes your life, then let it, and if you have to wait for what you really want, take the time because nobody said that life would be easy. They just promised it would be worth it." ~ Unknown author
