'The man with the clear head is the man who frees himself from those fantastic “ideas” and looks life in the face, realizes that everything in it is problematic, and feels himself lost. And this is the simple truth—that to live is to feel oneself lost—he who accepts it has already begun to find himself, to be on firm ground. Instinctively, as do the shipwrecked, he will look round for something to which to cling, and that tragic, ruthless glance, absolutely sincere, because it is a question of his salvation, will cause him to bring order into the chaos of his life. These are the only genuine ideas; the ideas of the shipwrecked. All the rest is rhetoric, posturing, farce. He who does not really feel himself lost, is without remission; that is to say, he never finds himself, never comes up against his own reality.'

Anxiety is the gap between who you currently are, and who you secretly want to be. As long as you keep growing, your mind will only become calmer and calmer.

"When someone "ghosts" another person, they're showing they lack communication skills and probably have some avoidant attachment issues."

Interesting quote, probably true.

As the gospel says to the church, 'Warn those who are idle, encourage the timid, help the weak, be patient with everyone. Make sure that nobody pays back wrong for wrong, but always try to be kind to each other and to everyone else.'

Help the weak, and encourage the timid. Interesting quote.

In a book I have:

"When fear arises, often the shame we feel over seeing ourselves as weak magnifies our suffering. Clearly seeing the nature of shame's self-judgment loosens fear's grip over us"

@Laurel - I love those! I've known a lot of people who ditched their old lives and completely changed everything at middle age+ and have done brilliantly.

I'll add: 'judge people by their actions not words'. It's very easy for someone to say all the right things, but far more difficult and therefore valuable for someone to take the right action.
