Look! The life we’re living. It’s here. Right here. We’re in the middle of it. And then, on the left side, you see that? It’s the life you’re SUPPOSED to be living. If you look closely it’s on the right side too. And below, and above. The life we’re supposed to...

It’s not the past.

It’s not the past.

No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. Really, no. You don’t need to find out what happened 23, 36, or 52 years ago, that specific thing that apparently prevents you from being happy right now. That’s not how this works. Because: so what? What changes when you remember...
