Bad experiences in life does not make us weak.
Needing support does not make us selfish
Just because they hurt us doesn't mean we have to hurt ourselves
The best things in life are worth fighting for!
What doesn't kill us only makes us stronger
If you can't handle me at my worst you dont deserve me at my best
Don't ever let anyone talk you out of being yourself
We are worth more than the sum of our experiences
We are not defined by our past
Asking for help is not weak, and talking is not bad
The ability to feel guilt, and pain, and love is what separates us from the people who hurt us - and what makes us better and stronger than them
Everyday that we are still here we are winning
It's okay to cry
Reaching the bottom makes reaching the top even more amazing when you get there and makes you appreciate it so much more.
Knowing you can get through something awful and come out of the other side can give you so much strength, confidence and pride in yourself.
You are not alone. People do not think anything bad about you because of what has happened. People care about you and want to help, and you DO deserve that support
You still have value.
Having bad things done to you does not make you a bad person.
Anything you did out of fear was not your fault. It was the fault of the person who threatened you.
People won't hate you when they know about the abuse. You're not the one who should be hated.
Hindsight is a powerful but destructive thing, how you acted in the past was based on the knowledge you held then. Do not judge it on the knowledge to hold now.
Its never too late to be what you could have been
Your future does not have to reflect your past
When the shadows pass the sun will shine all the brighter
You deserve love and support
You have the right to be and to feel safe
If you were physically ill then you would not be expected to heal too quickly, or on your own
You are only as sick as the secrets you keep
You have the right to feel anger and hurt over the things that happened to you
You are the engine for your dreams. Your dreams never give up on you and you never give up on them
It is not important to get it perfect, it is important to get it started
The bluntest pencil can be sharpened and the dullest surface can be polished until it shines
(this one is corny but what the heck) You had the brains, and the courage, and the heart, all along
It's only in your head you feel left out, or looked down on ( lyrics )
You cannot create a rainbow without rain... we cannot know joy until we have known sorrow
You are loved
I can face my fears and work to overcome them
Just because they told us we were weak, does not mean we are. In fact, every day we survive, we prove otherwise
The biggest fight back can be the most peaceful and sutle of acts
THEY are the ones that are sick
Everyone is loved by someone, somewhere
It is enough to have done my best
just don't give up.............you aren't finished when anyone says it's over unless that someone is you
There is nothing in a caterpillar that tells you it's going to be a butterfly
Sexual abuse does not take away your innocence.
When everything seems to be going against you, remember that the airplane takes off against the wind, not with it.
When you hit rock bottom, remember that rocks are solid and you can't fall through them
You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think.
Look at it this way. Think of all the things you could do on your first try. Then the things that took a long time to learn. The harder it is, the more proud of yourself you will feel when you finally do it. It's like riding a bike. You don't quit if you fall off the first time you get on. You don't learn that way. You learn by getting back on and trying again and again until you get it. And then you can feel so proud of yourself for all your effort and being able to get it.

So brush the dirt off your knees and get back on that bicycle.
