Alrighty. Happy Sunday.
I feel like my life is humming back and forth between entirely chaotic and totally peaceful... usually not what I strive for (read: balance). However, I'm quite happy, and while there are those chaos-inspired panic moments I feel generally pretty grounded.
Ever read the book Eat, Pray, Love? I know Elizabeth Gilbert has been dogged on a lot for this book, but I think she has some really good things to say.
One of my fave quotes was from her friend she calls Wayan (all names were changed for privacy).
Wayan says "To lose balance sometimes for love is part of living a balanced life."
True that.
I love Liz for her appreciation for self-love, self-understanding and self-respect.
I also love how she finds teachers everywhere.
To the nay-sayers I say: I like the book.
And thanks to Liz for writing it... this wasn't intended to be about the book, but it definitely fits.
Here's to me (And Wayan! And Liz!).
And to 2011!
