人生は幸せであることではない (Life is Not About Being Happy)
- It's in such moments of knotted misery that we may gain some relief from reframing our situation. While we may not be able to overcome our burdens themselves, it does lie in our power to alter what these burdens have to mean to us. We may not have to take them as proof of our stupidity or ill-adjustment. They can be signs that we're destined to have interesting lives rather than calm ones, lives marked by a high degree of exploration, psychological understanding and striving rather than settled certainty and equilibrium, what we lack in terms of contentment we may make up for in terms of insight and experience.
そのような結びつきの強い惨めな時にこそ、状況を捉え直すことで救われることがある。重荷そのものを克服することはできないかもしれないが、その重荷が自分にとって何を意味するのかを変えることはできる。重荷を自分の愚かさや不適応の証拠とみなす必要はない。重荷は、私たちが平穏な人生ではなく、興味深い人生を歩む運命にあることを示すサインであったり、定まった確信や平衡ではなく、高度な探究心や心理的理解、努力によって特徴づけられる人生であったりする。

愛を避けるためにどこまでやるのか (The Lengths We Go To Avoid Love)
- If we find ourselves in a relationship, we will assiduously practice the arts of what psychologists call distance management. When the chance of reaching a truly happy state appears, we'll subtly discover ways to introduce a chasm. We'll have an argument, spoil a birthday, ruin a holiday. We'll find we have to do a lot of work for an upcoming exam or presentation, that our gang of friends needs us to be somewhere else, that we forgot to return the credit card or tax bill, that our appearance requires a lot of our attention or that we like to flirt with a stranger at a party who suddenly seems very attractive indeed. In both tiny and large ways, we'll know just how to lower the mood, scupper a bond and destroy trust. Perhaps not enough to end a relationship completely, but certainly enough to worry our partner sufficiently as to our solidity that we can be privately sure things will never truly fly. Friends may commiserate with us on our so-called bad luck. Psychologists will note our superlative skill at romantic sabotage. With this to sound a bit like us, compassion is required. We should reflect back on our pasts and wonder at the connection between our fractured bonds with parental figures and our disrupted adult attachments. We aren't like this because we're wicked, we've just been very badly hurt. Once we understand how our skill at independence was acquired, we'll be in a better position to see that it has in reality outlived its rationale. We may still feel immensely apprehensive at the prospect of contentment, but we may finally be able to admit that we are, first and foremost, acting out of fear. Rather than dismissing our partners, we may stick closer to a much more awkward truth – that we're tempted to draw away from them because we're immensely scared that they might finally be in a position to make us very happy – and that simply nothing so unutterably and boundlessly frightening has ever happened to us before.
