“And I'm not naive to think there is nothing wrong in your life. That there is nothing you are struggling with. There is nothing that is hurting you or haunting you. Because that would be unrealistic, the fact is everyone has scars and ghosts and regrets. Maybe you fell in love with a person or a habit that was bad for you. Maybe you trusted the wrong person. Maybe you lost someone you never thought you would lose. Or maybe worst of all, you lost yourself. I think we need to stop being so mean to ourselves, the voices of other people who are mean to us are hard enough to ignore. Just because you've made mistakes in your life doesn't mean you're tarnished. ”
