'There is a growing focus in psychology and psychotherapy on the power of the metaphor, the way that the images and symbols we use in thinking and talking about our lives have a real and powerful effect on our happiness. Perhaps without fully realising you're doing it, do you think of your life as a "journey", a "battle", a "game" or an "adventure"?'
- Oliver Burkeman, Psychologies magazine.
Fascinating.
It's also really annoying how my friend Steven is casually travelling around Asia at the minute, I'd give anything to be going to a full moon party in Thailand next month instead of more college work.
