About This Quote

The longer one stays in full flight from reality, the more painful will be the landing. When people are able to avoid long-term emotional problems, they can become complacent about their responsibilities. But, when these same people are forced to face their issues head-on, they usually find that there are severe consequences. The truth is that it is easier to face the pain of the past than it is to face the pain of the present. The pain of any regret cannot be avoided because it always follows us wherever we go.
