Choose your surrounding

Quote

Even if you cannot change all the people around you, you can change the people you choose to be around. Life is too short to waste your time on people who don’t respect, appreciate, and value you. Spend your life with people who make you smile, laugh, and feel loved.

Roy T. Bennett

your heart decides who you want in your life,

and your behavior decides who stays in your life.
