About This Quote
When you’re not selective about whom you let into your life, and you let everyone into your life, then you’re not selective. You can’t pick and choose who you let in and who you don’t. And what does that lead to? Conflict. The more people that are in your life, the more conflict there is.
It’s the same thing with the world. You should be selective about who you let into your heart.
