Feeling restless


For smokers, a cigarette can feel like a good stress reliever. In fact, during times of stress, a cigarette feels almost necessary, and quitting the habit can seem virtually impossible.

I feel like I’m behind on life. School is completely overwhelming if only for the fact that I feel stuck and hopeless and disgruntled.

When you are happy, you accept yourself; when you are unhappy you reject yourself. But you are both. When all things are flowing, you feel great; when everything has stopped and become stagnant, then you feel in hell. But both have to be accepted. This is how life is: life consists of hell and heaven together. The division of hell and heaven separately is a false division. There is no heaven up there and no hell down there; they are both here. One moment you are in heaven, another moment you are in hell.
