Who You Were Meant to Be Quotes

“Too often the rules we fear to break are the ones that forbid us from taking care of ourselves at the expense of someone else’s inconvenience or hurt feelings. We ask too much of ourselves, making up silly rules to follow and then invoking guilt when we fall short. You might be surprised at how much better you feel when you try a little piece of freedom or give yourself a break. Often just the symbolism of a small act of self-caring is enough to open a way out of hopelessness and bring one back into the world of possibility.”
― Lindsay C. Gibson, Who You Were Meant to Be: A Guide to Finding or Recovering Your Life's Purpose

“Our obligation or duty is to play our parts in life so that our particular strengths and weaknesses, our very individuality, can interweave with the fabric of the world in ways that enrich and strengthen both the world and ourselves. Our individuality is our one perfect gift to our parents and the world.”
