The Comfort Book by Matt Haig

5.0

A nice book to pick up and sat down. Here are some of my favorite parts:

Staying alive for future versions of myself

Time turns depressions prophecies into fallacies

The bottom of the valley never has the clearest view

Words don’t capture they release

Life can only be understood backwards but can only be lived forwards nietzch

There is no point spending your whole life trying to win the love you didn’t have when you needed it - you sometimes have to let go of an old story and start your own.

The only fear of missing out that matters is the fear of missing out on yourself

Forever is composed of nows- Emily Dickinson

You must never wait in pain- you must see to it straightaway - it doesnt go away by pretending it isn’t there

Piano sonata 14 - never getting to hear the work you produce

It is better to let people down than to blow yourself up.

There is no starting point for the sky, you’re already living in it.

Man is not disturbed by things, but by the views he takes of them. Albert Ellis

The more we value things outside our control, the less control we have.

Forgiving other people is great practice for forgiving yourself when the time comes.
