It’s easy to make the mistake of thinking that if you have something you love or there’s something you want, you’ll be happier with more.

Quote: Who I Am
I have an idea of who I wish I were, and that obscures my understanding of who I am actually am. Sometimes I pretend even to myself to enjoy activities that I don’t really enjoy, such as shopping, or to be interested in subjects that don’t much interest me, such as foreign policy. And worse, I ignore my true desires and interests.
