“Think of yourself as entering a sea change in life, and choose things you haven't chosen before - try to enter situations, even ones you know will end in failure, just to experience failure.”

“Things will get better with time. Or no, everything is dynamic, which means life will have jump-for-joy moments as well as bad ones, going back and forth like the tide. If I'm sad today I'll be happy tomorrow, and if I'm happy today I'll be sad tomorrow - that's fine. As long as I keep loving myself.”
