“If you are busy pleasing everyone, you are not being true to
yourself”
― Jocelyn Murray
“You strive to please others, to fit in, and feel accepted. In spite of
that, you still don’t feel accepted, and not because others don’t
accept you, but because you haven’t accepted yourself as you are.”
― Dragos Bratasanu
Sometimes you aren’t listening to your body
“
Moral acts, which are simply particular acts, are in our power
and we are responsible for them. Character or habit is no excuse
for immoral conduct. Attending class is a student’s
responsibility. Should the student cut class, then he/she is
responsible for the consequences of his/her actions.
“ FREEDOM GIVES YOU
THE ABILITY TO STRIVE
TO ACHIEVE THAT GOAL.”
