Practices that may help
- Amor Fati: Loving What Happens
Amor fati — Latin for "love of fate" — is Friedrich Nietzsche’s idea that the highest attitude toward life is not mere acceptance of what happens but genuine affirmation: willing that nothing were different, even the difficult parts. It goes further than Stoic acceptance by asking you to want what is, not just bear it. The psychology of this overlaps with radical acceptance, post-traumatic growth, and meaning-making research, though "amor fati" itself is a philosophical prescription rather than a studied intervention. - Practice gratitude for the full arc, not just the pleasant parts
Express gratitude not only for gifts and good fortune but for the difficulties that shaped you.
Amor Fati: Loving What Happens - Tend to yourself before tending to others
Sustainable tend-and-befriend requires that the caregiver’s own basic needs are met — otherwise helping depletes rather than regulates.
