QUOTE : Pg. 124. "...That's what I mean about bein' attached to an impression of the way things are supposed to be instead of the way they are. You have to recognize the reality, that has to come first. Then you have to acknowledge it. And then you have to get comfortable with it. Soon as you get comfortable with it, soon as you can say yeah, that's it and it's not gonna change unless I change, and as soon as you accept that , then you can start to change yourself, which is the only thing you have any power to change anyway."
QUOTE II : Pg. 175. ...Definition of an addict: People who couldn't let go of an attachment to how they thought things ought to be.
