2026: Day 37
The Dopamine Experiment
Good morning!
This morning’s song is Love and Affection by Def Leppard. A classic!
Today’s reading is from Consolations by David Whyte. It’s an interested book of essays that each center around a word.
Here’s a quote I added to my commonplace book: Forgiveness is a heartache and difficult to achieve because strangely, it not only refuses to eliminate the original wound, but actually draws us closer to its source. To approach forgiveness is to close in on the nature of the hurt itself, the only remedy being, as we approach its raw centre, to reimagine our relation to it.
Today’s journal prompt: What’s the most interesting thing you learned this week?
