Be yourself and go back to your roots. Accept what you are. Because if I’m a monkey, if I know I’m a monkey and I accept that I am a monkey, I have no stress at all. But most of us, we know we are monkeys, but we want to show to the world we are tigers. Here is stress. Because every second you have to act like a tiger. Because if something slips, your “monkeyness” will be seen by the society. So the biggest stress is : “You don’t know who you are”

It was a costly lesson, and it taught me that if you give up who you are there is no one left for the other person to love, and no one left to do the loving.
Dushka Zapata, On Quora
An unhealthy relationship is loving something that is incapable of loving you back. That is always a sign that it is not a connection with your Higher Self: Watching TV, computer games, wine – these are simple examples.
