Accept yourself, love yourself, and keep moving forward. If you want to fly, you have to give up what weighs you down.

The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity, and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concern. Beautiful people do not just happen.

The only way that we can live, is if we grow. The only way that we can grow is if we change. The only way that we can change is if we learn. The only way we can learn is if we are exposed. And the only way that we can become exposed is if we throw ourselves out into the open. Do it. Throw yourself.

The flowers of your qualities will reveal your true nature. If you have the fragrance of God, you will have the fragrance of an "Insan Kamil', a perfected man. There will be light in your face, beauty in your heart, and sweetness in your speech.
~ Excerpt from The Golden Words of a Sufi Sheik
