   There are distinct differences between male and female brain. Female brains have a larger hippocampus which usually makes them better at the tension and memory. Male brains have a bigger parietal cortex which helps when fending off an attack. Male brains confront challenges differently then female brains. Women are hard wired to communicate with language, detail, empathy. Men? Not so much. It doesn’t mean they’re any less capable of emotion. They can talk about their feelings, it’s just that, most of the time, they really rather not.
   …
   “Be a man”, people say all the time but what does that even mean? Is it about strength? Is it about sacrifice? Is it about winning? Maybe it’s more simple than that. You have to know when not to man up. Sometimes it takes a real man to set his ego aside, admit defeat and simply start all over again

   I always said I’d be happier alone. I’d have my friends, my work. But someone in your life all the time is more trouble than it’s worth, but apparently I got over it.
   …
   There’s a reason I said I’d be happy alone. It wasn’t because I thought I’d be happy alone. It was because I thought if I love someone and it fell apart, I might not make it. It’s easier to be alone because what if you learn you need love and then you don’t have it? What if you like it and lean on it? What if you shape your life around it and then it falls apart? Can you even survive that kind of pain? Loosing love is like organ damage. It’s like dying. The only difference is death ends. This could go on forever.

   recovery
   is not a team sport. It’s a solitary distance run. It’s long. It’s exhausting and it’s lonely as hell.
   …
   The length of your recovery is determined by the extent of your injuries and is not always successful. No matter how hard we work at it, some wounds might never fully heal. You might have to adjust to a whole new way of living. Things may have changed too radically to ever go back to what they were. You might not even recognize yourself. It’s like you haven’t recovered anything at all. You’re a whole new person with a whole new life.

   how much
   can you actually accomplish in an hour? Run an errand maybe, sit in traffic, get an oil change? When you think about it, an hour isn’t very long. Sixty minutes, thirty six hundrend seconds, that’s it. It can change everything, forever. An hour can save your life. An hour can change your life. Sometimes it is just a gift we give ourselves. For some, it can mean almost nothing. For others, an hour means all the difference in the world but in the end, it’s still just an hour. One of many, many more to come. Sixty minutes, thirty six hundred seconds, that’s it and it starts all over again and who knows what the next hour might hold.

   Every pressurized system needs a relief valve. There has to be a way to reduce the stress, the tension before it becomes too much to bare. There has to be a way to find relief because if the pressure doesn’t find a way out, it’ll make one. It will explode. It’s the pressure we put on ourselves that’s the hardest to bare. The pressure to be better than we are. The pressure to be better than we think we can be. It never ever lets up. It just builds and builds and builds.

   We’re all looking for answers. In medicine, in life, in everything. Sometimes the answers we were looking for had been hiding just below the surface. Other times, we find answers when didn’t even realize we were asking a question. Sometimes the answers can catch us completely by surprise and sometimes, even when we find the answers we’ve been looking for, we’re still left with a whole hell of a lot of questions.

   We all want to grow up. We’re desperate to get there. To grab all the opportunities we can. To live. We’re so busy trying to get out of the nest, we don’t think about the fact that it’s going to be cold out there, really freaking cold because growing up sometimes means leaving people behind. And by the time we stand on our own two feet, we’re standing there alone.

   “E very cell in the human body regenerates, on average, every seven years. Like snakes, in our own way, we shed our skin. Biologically we’re brand new people. We may look the same, we probably do. The change isn’t visible, at least not on must of us but were all changed completed forever.
   …
   When we say things like, “People don’t change.” It drives scientists crazy because change is literally the only constant. Energy, matter, it’s always changing, morphing, merging, growing, dying. It’s the way people try not to change that’s unnatural. The way we cling to what things were instead of letting them be what they are. The way we cling to old memories instead of forming new ones. The way we insist on believing despite every scientific indication that anything in this life time is permanent. Change is constant. How we experience change, that is up to us. It can feel like death or it can feel like a second chance at life. If we open our fingers, loosen our grips, go with it. It can feel like pure adrenaline. Like at any moment, we can have another chance at life. Like at any moment we can be born all over again.”

    Atelophobia (from the Greek: ατελής, atelès, "imperfect, incomplete" and φόβος, phóbos, "fear") is the fear of not being good enough or imperfection.

    “B iology says that we are who we are from birth. That our biology is set in stone, unchangeable. Our DNA doesn’t account for all of us though. We’re humans, life changes us. We develop new traits, become less territorial. We stop competing. We learn from our mistakes. We face our greatest fears. For better or worse, we find ways to become more than our biology. The risk, of course, is that we can change too much. To the point that we don’t recognize ourselves. Finding our way back can be difficult. There’s no compass, no map. We just have to close our eyes, take a step and hope to God we get there..”

    “It’s a common belief that positive thinking leads to a happier, healthier life. As children, we’re told to smile and be cheerful and put on a happy face. As adults, we’re told to look on the bright side, to make lemonade, see glasses as half full. Sometimes reality can get in the way of our ability to act the happy part though. Your health can fail, boyfriends can cheat, friends can disappoint. It’s in these moments when you just want to get real, drop the act and be your true, scared, unhappy self. Ask most people what they want out of life and the answer’s simple: To be happy. Maybe it’s this expectation, the wanting to be happy, that keeps us from getting there. Maybe the more we try to will ourselves to states of bliss the more confused we get to the point where we don’t recognize ourselves. Instead we just keep smiling, trying like hell to be the happy people we wish we were. Until eventually, it hits us. It’s been there all along. Not in our dreams, our hopes but in the known, the comfortable, the familiar. ”

    "…for what is not connected with her to me? and what does not recall her? I cannot look down to this floor, but her features are shaped in the flags! In every cloud, in every tree—filling the air at night, and caught by glimpses in every object by day—I am surrounded with her image! The most ordinary faces of men and women—my own features—mock me with a resemblance. The entire world is a dreadful collection of memoranda that she did exist, and that I have lost her!"
