Art imitates life – that’s what I learned today 🙂

It’s 9: 34 PM on day 218 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to brush my teeth, watch TV, feed myself a bread and jam sandwich for lunch – I was supposed to eat it for breakfast but my mom never found out so no harm no foul LOL 🙂 – promote my campaign on Facebook –no luck – feed myself a banana for dinner, tweet about my Clean Water For All Campaign – still no luck – and continue reading Boundary Lines – the second book in Engaging The Enemy by Nora Roberts.

Today I was watching Cashmere Mafia –a show about four best friends trying to balance their personal and professional lives – and there was this one particular scene that really struck a chord with me, Juliet – one of the main characters in the show – was getting ready for bed while her adulterer husband, Davis, was trying so hard to connect with her only she took that opportunity to hurt him as much as he hurt her by turning away from him – literally – and in that moment I realized in horror that I was Juliet in that once someone hurt me I froze them out completely. Do you look to art to feel less alone or to discover things you’ve never known?
