the best revenge

A phrase popped in my head this weekend while I was emotional eating and wishing certain things in my life were different: “Living well is the best revenge”
This is a quote from George Herbert, a 16th century poet and when looking it up I found that there are many different interpretations. I found some interesting thoughts about it here, but the one I think settles well with me is the first in the list.

I was not living well by feeding my anger, I was doing the opposite by harming my body with food that causes inflammation and pain. I need to wrap my head around this that the way to feel better is to do things that actually physically make me feel better…. Why is that such a difficult thing to live by?
