“Those of us who obsess over every word and action are constantly recalling past events, but that doesn't make them any less painful, nor does it help us transcend them.

You have to get back to the mental and emotional state you were in during those events.” WritingDoeStatesHelpingActionPastEventsEmotionalPainfulMemoirGet BackWords And ActionsPast Events Author:Janice Erlbaum
“Anybody who severs their own Achilles tendon, takes blood thinners to induce a hospital stay , or beats themselves with their fists hurts themselves as much, if not more, than they benefit from the attention they derive from their actions. Con artists usually benefit from misleading others without sacrificing anything themselves. All my girls have sacrificed plenty.” IfsActionArtistGirlHurtAttentionSacrificeBloodBenefitsBeatsPlentyHospitalsFistsMisleadAchillesMy GirlCon Artist Author:Janice Erlbaum
