I am still reading Eat, Pray, Love by Elizabeth Gilbert.  I usually read much faster but I realize that I have just been working a lot this week.  I didn't get a chance to read at all yesterday.  I woke up, took one look around my house and realized that if I had been burglarized and ransacked, I'd be hard pressed to notice!  So yesterday, in addition to taking a client to lunch, was designated a clean and get organized day.  I'm not sure quite how much I got done between phone calls, but at least it looked a little better.  This morning, reading this great book with my morning tea, I came across a great line... "Listen--next time you feel the need to cry about spilled milk, make sure it condensed, will ya?"  This was in response to a long email the writer had sent to friends.  I thought this was so funny.  How many times do we do this.  Complain, long and loud about things that go wrong in our lives.  I think women may do this more than men.  And not only do we do it, we do it over and over, until it's out of our systems!  I hope next time it's my turn to vent, I can remember to keep to the condensed version! 

 This is a great book.  Full of funny things and great insight.

Susan, good advice. We all have issues that we need to share with others but sometimes the sharing takes longer than the actual event.

Just wait until you get the explanation of the Bali master's meditation to Heaven & Hell.  It's one of my favorite things I've ever read.
