“The worst part of it is that I was right. I’ve always known that my need to control things to a minute level of detail is unhelpful, bordering on unhealthy. I try to keep it in check as much as I can.

There’s no winning. Either I’m a bitch who needs to control everything, or I’m an easy mark.”
― Sarah Gailey, The Echo Wife

“Never forget where you come from, but don’t allow it to define you.”
