The effect of emotional venting is to sustain an unsatisfactory status quo. Most people think the opposite, that complaining is part of an effort to change an unsatisfying situation. Nope. Complaining lets off pressure so that we neither explode with frustration nor feel compelled to take the often risky steps of openly opposing a difficult person or situation. Keeping emotional pressure tolerably low doesn't change problematic circumstances but rather perpetuates them.

Don't let your life revolve around whatever you're trying not to do or feel. Live to experience, not to avoid.

By the end of your incredibly arduous, disappointing, stressful journey, you will be your true self, in a place where you belong, with friends who truly understand you and bring all sorts of opportunities your way.

Where your attention goes, your life goes.

Having fun is not a diversion from a successful life; it is the pathway to it.

I once read that forgiveness is giving up all hope of having had a different past...but forgiving is not the same as obliterating memory.

Peace is more than just a feeling. It's the mental and physical frequency where you'll find all your real power.
