More From Terry Pratchett

It may be that what you could be haunts you. it is real. it is a weight you have to carry around. each failure to become, to be, is a weight. each state you could inhabit is a burden as heavy as any physical weight, but more so, because it weighs on your soul. it is the ghost of your possibilities hanging around your neck, an invisible albatros, potentials unknowingly murdered.
Real Soul Necks
Reality check: you can never, ever, use weight loss to solve problems that are not related to your weight. at your goal weight or not, you still have to live with yourself and deal with your problems. you will still have the same husband, the same job, the same kids, and the same life. losing weight is not a cure for life.

Every time someone starts talking about weight, it takes away from the fight. no one is born at that weight. we grew into that weight. it is all about the challenge, more so than the weight.
Fighting Challenges
You must all know half a dozen people at least who are no use in this world, who are more trouble than they are worth. just put them there and say sir, or madam, now will you be kind enough to justify your existence? if you can't justify your existence, if you're not pulling your weight in the social boat, if you're not producing as much as you consume or perhaps a little more, then, clearly, we cannot use the organizations of our society for the purpose of keeping you alive, because your life does not benefit us and it can't be of very much use to yourself.

It was inevitable: yankel fell in love with his never-wife. he would wake from sleep to miss the weight that never depressed the bed next to him, remember in earnest the weight of gestures she never made, long for the un-weight of her un-arm slung over his too-real chest, making his widower's rememberences that much more convincing and his pain that much more real.

More important than a work of art itself is what it will sow. art can die, a painting can disappear. what counts is the seed.

There are minds so impatient of inferiority that their gratitude is a species of revenge, and they return benefits, not because recompense is a pleasure, but because obligation is a pain.
Gratitude Pain Revenge
It is good to look to the past to gain appreciation for the present and perspective for the future. it is good to look upon the virtues of those who have gone before; to gain strength for whatever lies ahead. it is good to reflect upon the work of those who labored so hard and gained so little in this world, but out of whose dreams and early pains, so well nurtured, has come a great gravest of which we are the beneficiaries. their tremendous example can become a compelling motivation for all of us. ~gordon b. hinckley

Then come the lights shining on you from above. you are a performer. you forget all you learned, the process of technique, the fear, the pain, you even forget who you are you become one with the music, the lights, indeed one with the dance.
