Deliberately seeking solitude-quality time spent away from family and friends-may seem selfish. It is not. Solitude is as necessary for our creative spirits to develop and flourish as are sleep and food for our bodies to survive.

The only person in all the world who can give you pleasure, or deny it, is yourself.

No behavior can be changed before it's acknowledged. And no addiction is beyond the reach of Love.
