"But I love him."Although I was not fond of this book when I was forced to read it for class, I can't help myself but to refer back to this part of the book. At first, I thought Liz Gilbert was acting like a child. She couldn't get over a simple heartache? How ridiculous she is. Little did I know that I would be in the same exact position as her. Oh, Richard, what wise words you hold.
"So love him."
"But I miss him."
"So miss him. Send him some love and light every time you think about him and then drop it. You're just afraid to let go of the last bits of David because then you'll really be alone, and Liz Gilbert is scared to death of what will happen if she's really alone. But here's what you gotta understand, Groceries. If you clear out all that space in your mind that you're using right now to obsess about this guy, you'll have a vacuum there, an open spot - a doorway. And guess what the universe will do with that doorway? It will rush in - God will rush in - and fill you more love than you ever dreamed. So stop using David to block that door. Let it go."
These past few days have been better than the last. I'm seeing more sunshine in my life and surrounding myself with good company. Company. That's all I really need at this moment. Nothing more or less. Company. I sometimes think my curiosity will be the death of me. I can't help but to wonder: "How are you? (Honestly.)" "Do you miss me like I miss you?" "Was I really that difficult for you deal with?" "Am I going to be like my mother?" "Did all that stress override all those good memories?" Some things I will never know. But I am determined to carry on! As of right now, I have too much going on for me to slow down. Company. I am going to surround myself with company who wants me instead of with company who doesn't. I am rambling and not making sense. Sorry. Have a good day!
XOXO
