Surround yourself with people who know your worth.  You don’t need to know too many people to be happy; just a few real ones who appreciate you for exactly who you are!

I appreciate you because you have been there through the good times, the great times and all the times in between. 

I appreciate you because you pick me up when I am feeling down.

I appreciate you because you cheer my every triumph and make me feel on top of the world. 

I appreciate you because when you tell me my hair is looking a little past its use-by date, I know you only want the best for me. 

I appreciate you because we can pick up a conversation we left off a year ago only to continue it a year later and it still feels like we last spoke just yesterday.
