“You know me; I'm going to support whatever you choose, so if you are choosing hiding, hide away!
But don't hide AND claim you aren't hiding. Don't hide AND give up. Don't hide AND stop dreaming.
Your dream died? Fine. Give it a decent burial and dream a new dream.
Take off the black armband and figure out the next thing.
Be open to the universe plopping it in your lap. (p63)”

“I take a deep breath and consider what the counselor at Canyon Ranch said about my ego, my vanity.
That my constant awareness of what other people think of me and my decisions was ultimately a huge part of my downfall. (p39)”

“So even though every fiber of my being is screaming out that everything about this situation is beneath me, I have to face that turning down an opportunity for honest paid work in my field is more beneath me.
Pride is a lot harder to swallow than a black and white cookie. (p39)”

“That I was far too concerned about public perception.
That perhaps, if I hadn't had some insane picture in my head of a type of life that I was trying so desperately to attain, as if it was my destiny, maybe I would have had a clearer eye about Dexter, or would have planned a wedding I could afford, or would have been able to shrug off the humiliation and not derail my job and relationships.
I hated how much of that landed. (p39)”
