Kindle Notes & Highlights
Addiction doesn’t just run in my family, it gallops, and its unhappy consequences have been repeated with dreadful symmetry throughout my life.
“Only when you’ve listened to what the person has said do you know how to say what you need to say.”
I never understood why I didn’t talk back or fight with him, but I just knew I couldn’t win. You learn after a long enough period of time that it’s not worth it.
You have to know your limitations and then either rise above them or make peace with the fact that you’re never going to.
