You don’t need superpowers to be a hero. You don’t even have to have a heroic job. Small, kind acts can bring great happiness to others. A moment of your time can bring sunshine to anyone’s cloudy day, making you their hero, even if for just a moment.

Life is a puzzle and each memory we make is a piece of it. Of course, we don’t start out with all of the pieces. Sometimes we don’t know at first where the new ones even fit — but it does come together. It is up to us to put together a beautiful picture of our lives to look upon — and to share with our loved ones.

Our past shapes us, certainly, but it does not define us. Each day is a new opportunity to become better than our past self. We make choices as unique souls to change direction any time. Yes… even you. If ever you feel that your past is holding you back, remember that you have the power to overcome it. See it in your mind as if it is already true, and then step into your future.

Your body is doing the best it can. Love it, nurture it, and take pride in it. Your body has taken you through life this far, so be sure to thank it and never be ashamed of it. Every scar and imperfection tells a story about your life — what you have survived and overcome. Listen to it; give it what it needs and what it wants. Your body is doing the best it can. Do your part to help it.

Even when the sun goes down and clouds darken the otherwise twinkling night sky, we know that light is there and that it will show itself again. In your darkest moments, know that there is positivity and goodness out there, waiting for you. While it may seem like it’s disappeared forever, there is always light in the world. Sometimes we just have to look for it or wait a little while, but it will rise.

All humans have an impact on this world. Every action we take on planet Earth has an impact on it, and every positive thing you do, no matter how small or seemingly insignificant, makes the world a better place. It is together that we make huge alterations. Without each individual’s contribution, nothing would change in this world. Your actions do make a difference every day.

Every part of the universe was created using particles of stars and space matter, including you. You are a star, recycled and renewed into a living, conscious soul on the planet Earth. If ever you feel belittled or not good enough, remember that you are indeed a star. You carry with you pieces of the universe and you are greater than anyone may ever understand.

We each leave a legacy when we depart from this world. What is remembered about us? People will remember our beautiful souls, laughter, and what we created. Few will reminisce about the material things we had accumulated. Remember this while you’re still living your life, and create many happy memories.

The human mind is like fire. It can be used for comfort or chaos — to lighten someone’s day or as a means of destruction. Even the greatest fire, though, cannot survive without oxygen and fuel. Similarly, our minds cannot function without rest and nutrition. Some self-care can keep your inner hearth warm.

No one is better at criticizing ourselves than, well, ourselves. While we should certainly strive for the best we can be in whatever we pursue, it is important to accept our “shortcomings.” Perfection is boring anyway! What great fictional (or real life) hero ever started out being perfect? Grow with each mistake, take every new lesson in stride (however painful it is to your ego), and believe in your ability to become better with each so-called shortcoming.

Love is central to our lives. We even have a holiday celebrating romantic love! What we often neglect, though, is self-love. In order to achieve the greatest happiness, we must learn to love every part of ourselves, even the pieces we sometimes wish weren’t part of us. To do this, try to foster relationships with people who love the many things that make you you, forgive your past self, and take little moments to self-reflect.

Spontaneity is the spice of life. As creatures of habit, we prefer to do what is known and comfortable. In order to grow, however, we must try to break out of monotony and do something spontaneous — even if it means making a mess. An impromptu act (even of kindness to someone else!) will likely help you learn something new about yourself.
