“I thought about how you’re shaped so much by the people who surround you, and how careful you have to be in choosing them for this exact reason, and then I thought, despite all that, in the end maybe you have to lose them all in order to truly find yourself.”

Be careful that what you think about yourself isn’t simply a replica of what others think about you. Don’t fall for it. Always stay true to yourself and who you are.
Life is so short, so surround yourself with the people you love. Allow for yourself to be genuinely happy.
