If we were immortal, nothing would be special because nothing would be scarce or unattainable. Meaning requires endings. - Mark Manson

The best moments of your life won’t look like the best moments of your life while they’re happening.

Stress-related health issues, anxiety disorders, and cases of depression have skyrocketed over the past thirty years, despite the fact that everyone has a flat-screen TV and can have their groceries delivered. Our crisis is no longer material; it’s existential, it’s spiritual. We have so much fucking stuff and so many opportunities that we don’t even know what to give a fuck about anymore.

The worst thing that ever happened to you will either define you or refine you. You choose.
