“Few of us have tons of “free” time. When we believe something is important, we make time for it. Making time for the people who are most important in your life is crucial to happiness. A job can replace you, but to those who love you, you are irreplaceable. Prioritize your time with this in mind. “Doe Zantamata

 

 

“Faith means to believe something is true without having to see real proof. In fact, sometimes, faith means to believe something is true, despite what the “real” proof shows. If you have faith in a person, and it looks like, or you hear gossip that this person has done something wrong, you won’t believe it until you hear it directly from them. Faith is tied to trust. You cannot have faith without trust or trust without faith. ” Doe Zantamata

 

 

“If someone spends time going out of their way to harm others, it’s really sad. It means they have no clue how precious and brief their own life really is. Don’t waste any of your life being angry with them. To do so would be giving them power over your happiness. They will regretfully prove to be their own worst enemy. ” Doe Zantamata

 

 

“Courage takes forethought. You can feel awkward now for using it, or regretful later for not using it. There is some resistance in every chosen path, but the one that requires courage is usually the best one to choose. It leads to the real you. People talk often of taking the path of least resistance, but in the present moment, it will always seem easier to avoid than deal with those awkward feelings. So it’s best to think more in terms of choices and consequences and summon up that courage within. You won’t regret it. ” Doe Zantamata

 

 

“While it’s true that no one can “make you” feel any certain thing, good or bad, that doesn’t mean that there’s something wrong with you if what others say or do affects you. We are human beings after all, and the only reason we walk, talk, and learned to use the potty was because someone encouraged us to do so. Harsh environments grow much fewer flowers. Limit the time you spend in them when possible, shake it off as best you can, and really try to make quality time with those who value you. Make sure not to damper your quality time by talking too much about those others that affect you negatively. Enjoy your quality time, and the effects of those others will diminish on their own.” Doe Zantamata
