So, I have been really vibing with Elizabeth Gilbert over the past year, and now I understand even more so why, she just released her newest book about the intense experience she had in the last 6 months of her partner's life.....she really frames it around codependency as addiction, but I feel like there is another layer of just seeing the human experience as completely disconnected from circumstances, I've been really finding solace lately in the way in which with the internet we are able to see that the people who "have it all" are experience as much distress about being in human form as the rest of us, Glennon Doyle is another example of this, I mean if these people who have all the love and fame and money and purpose and are living their passions and all the access to every therapy and resource are still diving into the underworld on a regular basis then maybe we are just meant to be diving into the underworld on a regular basis, maybe this whole idea of escaping it is part of what makes it so brutal, and maybe if we were like, this is where I'm supposed to be when we are in distress, maybe that has more honesty and grace, anyways, I just found this interview really satisfying and I'm looking forward to reading the book! xo
