no matter how much you love someone, if you don't love them in their love language, they will never feel loved. they will appreciate your gestures and maybe even your effort but always view it as you being kind and not LOVING them.

failure is not your final copy so don't let that shit define you. today I wanted to leave you with some inspiration around why failing, and failing fast is so important. tap in to these key points:

• sometimes we need to fail at the very thing we thought we wanted so bad to find out if we ever even wanted it
• failure makes us better
• be okay and prepared to fail, and do it fast
