“Care tasks exist for one reason only… to make your body and space functional enough for you to easily experience the joy this world has to offer.”
― K.C. Davis, How to Keep House While Drowning

“If you are uncomfortable—in deep pain, angry, yearning, confused—you don’t have a problem, you have a life. Being human is not hard because you’re doing it wrong, it’s hard because you’re doing it right.”
― Glennon Doyle, Untamed

“You cannot go through your life without losing and grieving, and if you try to avoid it, that emotion will get stuck and be constantly waiting for you to feel it. My advice on unavoidable pain is the same as always: feel it and honor it. That’s how you process anything. Come back into the body to feel it, use the breathe-and-feel tool, and it will pass in time. It will come in waves. It will teach you how to be human. It’s not necessarily fun, but it’s so incredibly important. And paradoxically, feeling grief and pain will eventually allow you the space to process, and eventually be happy again.”

“Everything is redeemable, Martha. Even decisions that end up with you unconscious and bleeding in a pedestrian underpass, like me. Although ideally, you want to figure out the reason why you keep burning your own house down.”
