It's good to have it once in a while.

But if you make it a staple of your diet, you're gonna die.

In a real way, you're gonna die.

Because these are people that don't love you and want your money.

And so if you let them define

what a relationship should look like, if you let them define what you should expect from your partner and what you should get mad at your partner for, what you should resent your partner for, if you let these people define, you will never be anything but dissatisfied.

Because really, what is social media but advertisement?

It's an advertisement for ourselves, right?

Like it's real advertisements, it's product placement and all that crap.

But it's also like, oh, here's an ad for me.

Here's a curated ad of my life.

Here's the greatest hits of my life.

It's a curated picture of that.

Do you know the one message you will never hear in an advertisement?

You're fine.

You're fine.

You don't need anything.

Advertising is the opposite of therapy.

The purpose of therapy is to instill a sense of wellness in a person, right?

To help them find wellness in themselves.
