“The greatest happiness of life is the conviction that we are loved — loved for ourselves, or rather, loved in spite of ourselves.” -Victor Hugo

This is one of my favorite quotes of all time. It is the true state of things underneath all the layers that block our view. Interpersonal relationships are often the grounds around which people base their experience of loving. This is difficult because...

“Tell me what you eat, and I’ll tell you what you are.” -Jean Anthelme Brillat-Savarin

“There is no coming to consciousness without pain.” -Carl Jung

I am not sure if it was my boldness in lifting two boxes at a time, maybe just a little too long on the Precor trainer, or a silent unnoticed bad turn, but something in my pelvis/ hip area went really wrong today. The smallest of movements are accompanied by bursts of pain and even just sitting very still has a decided low-grade...
