Reader,

When I wrote my book THEM several years ago, one of the things I enjoyed most was finding an interesting and relevant quote to begin each chapter.

Not many people have read the book, so I thought I’d share a few of these quotes for you to talk about among yourselves.

​
​Depression on my left. Loneliness on my right. They don’t need to show me their badges. I know these guys very well.

~ Elizabeth Gilbert, from Chapter 5 “The Visitor No One Wants.”

​
​If anger were mileage, I’d be a frequent flyer, right up there in first class.

~ Gina Barrecca, from chapter 10, “Anger.”

​
​Our lives are fashioned by choice. First we make choices. Then our choices make us.

~Anne Frank, from chapter 17, “Wheel Chairs and Pogo Sticks.”

​
Oh, and by the way, if you missed last week’s podcast episode about dealing with anxiety, you can listen to it when you click here.

Until next time, I wish you all the joy that you can wish.*
