My grandmother was a wonderful source of love to me. She told me things that saved me. She told me that you can build your reputation for a lifetime and lose it in a day. Character is the most important thing you have and what makes you special. The one I hang onto when things get really bad is that I am as good as anyone else. Each person is important and each person mattters!

I can't think of a particular saying, if we grow up with unconditional love, it gives us an inner strength.

Yes I did. Sadly, my parents died too young.

There's a saying in my country that literally would sound weird, but goes more or less like this:

Water always finds its way across stone.

Meaning that persistence and patience will lead to sucess

20 children cannot play together for 20 years.

It means a lot to me because I can always hear my dad saying this to me (and as you know, he can no longer speak very well). At the same time, it's meaningful to me because it's one of the proverbs that I remember as letting go of people is what I've had to accept throughout my life; and not a damn thing has changed lol. From what I know, it's a Nigerian (Yoruba) proverb (translated into English).

Nothing lasts forever...The good times & the bad times. Whenever I am going through something rough, I always remind myself that it won't be forever & when I'm going through good times I remember that it won't last forever so I enjoy every moment.

I heard this one 2-3 months ago, for the first time, and I resonated with it instantly. I think it has been true for me.

Everything ends happily. If it doesn't end happily, then it hasn't ended yet.

This may sound strange, but one of the sayings that helped me through a really difficult time was when someone looked at me and said, "You WILL make it through this." It might seem forceful, but I didn't interpret it that way. It was incredibly comforting to know that another person could see my own inner strength, that they could see a light at the end of the tunnel, even when I couldn't. To be reminded that I had everything I needed to survive that situation, no matter what my over-thinking brain was trying to tell me. That helped me more than anything else that could have been said to me in that moment.

Nobody since the people who were supposed to give me love gave me pain instead. I had to rely on myself and my inner strength.
