“What if, instead of seeking oblivion by escaping from the world, we
turn toward it? What if instead of leaving the world behind, we
immerse ourselves in it?”
― Anna Lembke, Dopamine Nation: Finding Balance in the Age of Indulgence

“A truthful self-inventory leads not only to a better understanding of
our own shortcomings. It also allows us to more objectively appraise
and respond to the shortcomings of others. When we're accountable to
ourselves, we're able to hold others accountable. We can leverage
shame without shaming.
The key here is accountability with compassion. These lessons apply
to all of us, addicted or not, and translate to every type of relationship
in our everyday lives.”
― Anna Lembke, Dopamine Nation: Finding Balance in the Age of Indulgence

“Let everything happen to you
Beauty and terror
Just keep going
No feeling is final”

“I hate writing, I love having written.”
