so I've been reading "Eat, Pray, Love" and I'm having a hard time getting through the India portion. Got through Italy just fine (obviously, there's food involved).

But just this morning I read the passage where Richard from Texas tells Liz that she's a control freak. Has control issues actually. Tells her that she needs to realize that just because David is her soul mate doesn't mean they're supposed to be together for the rest of their lives. It just means that he is her mirror, that he was there to reveal parts of her that she never saw before. To tear down her walls so she could grow more. And that his purpose has been served and now she must say goodbye. And it was okay to miss him. it was it was okay to cry, but just remember that she had to let go.

How does this relate to me? Well, it doesn't relate to anything I'm going through right now. But it does seem relevant due to recent events and conversations.

It seems like I need someone every now and then, someone like Richard from Texas, to tell me that it's okay for people to not like me. edit: That it's okay for people to think that I'm in the wrong, even if I think I'm not. To tell me that I don't have to care about pleasing every person that I've had a relationship with. That sometimes I just need to let go. Not try to have control over things that I can't control.

Someone just needs to sit me down and tell me it's okay until I'm convinced that it's really okay.

I really really do love that book (I'm assuming you've got my copy?). I feel like I need to follow some of it myself. I also feel really bogged down with everything from my interns to Squee to the amount of crap I own. Seriously, I feel trapped.

I know. I'm planning a massive purge. I have so much shit in my closet and garage that I know I'll never ever use. That's one good thing about preparing for a move.

P.S. That movie really really depresses me.
