Running on empty


If you spend your time trying to make others happy, 
just know you'll not only fail at it,
 but you'll deplete yourself of your own life energy.
You are not responsible for all the wrongs in the world.
Let things be as they are.
What may appear as someone's pain to you, 
may be their perfect lesson.
Grace doesn't always come wrapped in pretty paper.
