So I realize I have to deal with my passions, my anger, my desires, my loneliness, my self-pity, I’ve got to remember my address, I’ve got to get a job, I’ve got to keep my act together, keep my clothes clean, you know, brush my teeth, you know, use dental floss,
I’ve got to do it all, I’ve got to pay my taxes, change the oil in my car, you know, and that’s all part of the process, until finally, all of it becomes grist for the mill, all of it is the stuff you’re using to get free.
– Ram Dass
