Nietzsche never said "If you think someone has ruined your life, you're right. It's you." However, he did say
"You are never destroyed by anyone except yourself.” Remember, the most important relationship you will ever have is with yourself so while personal accountability is critical, so is kindness and love. 💪🏻❤️💪🏻

Unfortunately, life teaches us all that to live is to suffer pain and loss. Both Grief and Resiliency research informs us that, to deal with this reality, we must pay attention to where we pay attention. A great saying to remember this is “Hunt the Good Stuff!”
On this holiday, and on the beginning of the hectic holiday season, please remember to take care of yourself, love on your loved ones-here and not here, honor & cherish those now gone who helped make us who we are with a toast, a prayer, a memory, or a funny story, and to HTGS!!!
