“I was in Mongolia, pretty extreme situations. We were sick with dysentery, we were sick with bronchitis. I had been bitten by a dog for the first time in my life and my whole hand was black, and there was no way to even think of getting a rabies shot without driving for five days, and then you wouldn't have wanted that needle in your skin anyway. And I had my period. Everything was wrong at one time. Like, I couldn't have been more uncomfortable. And I stayed up - it was too cold to sleep.” ThinkingWayFirstsHas BeensWholeHandsWantedBlackSleepSituationFiveDogColdPeriodsShotsFirst TimeSkinsSickExtremesDrivingUncomfortableOne TimeNeedlesMongoliaRabiesBronchitisDysentery Author:Pam Houston
“People mistake self-love for thinking they must always like what they see in the mirror - and yes, of course, that is the goal; that all depends on perspective - but my argument is that you can still have self-love while wanting to make progress or improve things. The main issue is that we attach too much to an idea of what our perfect body may be or what self-love should be. But that's the issue. There is no right or wrong. We can love ourselves and feel bloated. We can love ourselves but feel uncomfortable in our skin. We are a work in progress and human and won't always feel amazing.” PeopleThinkingGoalPerfectMistakeProgressPerspectiveArgumentSkinsUncomfortableWork In Progress Author:Danielle Tabor
“When I stop doing the things that make me unhappy, I will experience the happiness that is that natural state of being. See, I don't think we were created with some pain and misery and whatever. I think we were created by whatever this thing is, when it extended itself, and, here we are. But I pile on so many misconceptions that I end up uncomfortable in my own skin.” ThinkingPainNaturalSkinsMiseryUnhappyUncomfortableMisconception Author:Hubert Selby, Jr.

“Physically it's kind of lassitude, the apathy and tiredness that precedes the flu or some other illness, or death. My legs ache and feel heavy, my skin has become more sensitive to cold and to heat, to the hardness or rigidity of things. Nothing interests me, I feel uncomfortable being still but would feel even more uncomfortable if I moved. I don't know whether speaking is painful or just boring. I sit here, staring straight ahead, with no desires, no needs, hollow. I'm not even sad. I feel only passivity and indifference.” IfsKnowsNeedsFeelsKindStillsDesireInterestColdSkinsMovedPainfulIllnessHeavyBoringLegsStaringIndifferenceUncomfortableSensitiveHeatApathyAcheHollowFluPassivityRigidityHardnessTiredness Author:Antonio Lobo Antunes
