And if the answer is “let the jackass think he’s right,” then so be it. - Jen Sincero

Our fantasies are our realities in an excuse-free world.

We relive our worst moments over and over and over instead of letting them go, we pick at the emotional scabs and refuse to let the healing happen and the pain subside. We won’t rest until we’ve made sure someone else feels as badly as they’ve just made us feel. If I have to suffer my entire life I will make sure you see how you’ve wronged me! We cling to the resentments that take up our brain space, waste our time, spin us out, keep us angry and depressed and very often make us physically sick and sometimes even kill us because . . . um, why?

Your life is your party. You get to choose how you invite people and experiences and things into it.
