What does this quote mean to you? "There can be no happiness if the things we believe in are different from the things we do." -Freya Stark

Explanation:

In my opinion (since i'm obsessed with quotes) is that it means if we know something is wrong, or if it goes against our beliefs and we just walk away or don't stand up and say something than everything you have done and all that you have been through will be wasted like it was never there and never important to you at all. If you say your going to do something or make a promise and you break it just to please someone else, then your losing not winning. You'll live with regret and you'll feel as though you aren't loyal and no one can trust you to do what you said you WILL do.

Another similar quote is ACTIONS speak louder than WORDs. No one can believe you, not even yourself, until you are willing to put through the effort to do it.

self-monitoring is in other words holding back your emotions for the better good. usually, people who can't hold their excitement, temper, or any other emotions, need to self-monitor themselves.   lol

do you have a copy of the poem?
