Audio Books →A Little Happier Notes for Reassurance [Audiobook]

None of this is real when each of us tells stories about our lives in too tidy narratives that are seldom true and rarely helpful.

Our partner isn't right for us because no-one is. None of us is born for someone else. But perhaps those areas of frequent conflict are useful indicators of where we might ourselves be insufferable.
Life is hard, messy and complex; our friends will probably let us down; most of what has got us here is blind luck and a series of false starts.
