Quotes by Josh Galarza  (?)

“Your guilt is making you feel like you’re a bad person, right? That you might not be capable or worthy of change? But forgiveness turns your guilt into remorse. Remorse is more like, If I knew then what I know now, I’d have done better. I would have made a different choice. The difference is subtle, but remorse acknowledges that we have the capacity to change, to become better, more compassionate, empathetic people—and to overcome our harmful habits. I myself carry a great deal of remorse, but I don’t carry any guilt.”
Josh Galarza, The Great Cool Ranch Dorito in the Sky

“As long as there's a story in your heart, you'll always have somewhere to escape to when things get hard, and as long as you're a storyteller, you'll always be able to build your own escape route.”
Josh Galarza, The Great Cool Ranch Dorito in the Sky

“Sometimes our coping behaviors hurt us more than the things that cause them.”
Josh Galarza, The Great Cool Ranch Dorito in the Sky
