He looked down at her. "Have you found that peace?" Yes, she had. But it was so corny and cliched that she couldn't bring herself to admit it." A wise man once told me that peace has to come from within. We have to learn to like ourselves before we can find our place in the world. Sherrilyn Kenyon
About This Quote

It has been a long time since I've heard a quote that was so profound and yet so simple at the same time. This quote is a reminder to the world that we have to be our own role models and show others that we can find our place in the world. In order for us to learn to love ourselves, we have to learn how to be there for ourselves. We have to stop giving in to outside influences and become strong enough to face life's challenges on our own.
