“. . . hell is wanting to be somewhere different from where you are. Being one place and wanting to be somewhere else . . . . Wanting life to be different from what it is. That's also called leaving without leaving. Dying before you die. It's as if there is a part of you that so rails against being shattered by love that you shatter yourself first. (p. 44)”
― Geneen Roth, Women, Food and God: An Unexpected Path to Almost Everything
If you haven't read this book, I highly recommend it....definite must read for all ages and gender. It is a book about our lack of knowing self, it's about what we do that disconnects us from knowing our truth.
