I'm at my strongest when I'm able to let go, when I suspend my beliefs as well as disbeliefs, and leave myself open to all possibilities. That also seems to be when I'm able to experience the most internal clarity and synchronicities.
When I was willing to let go of what I wanted, I received what was truly mine. I’ve realized that the latter is always the greater gift.
In truth, I’m not my body, my race, religion, or other beliefs, and neither is anyone else.

The amount of love, kindness, patience I have for others is is directly proportional to how much love I have for myself, because we cannot give others what we ourselves do not have. And, unsurprisingly, the amount of love, respect, support, and compassion I receive from others is also in direct proportion to how much I love myself.
