love, the second time around


I road on the subway today for three extra stops simply to continue reading. I am in love for the second time. 

Eat, Pray, Love saved me this summer. I was an overturned turtle; flailing my arms, trying to grasp at life with every fiber of my being and loosing hope with every failing swing. I had been knocked over, then my dearest friend Katie lent me this book. Together, Katie and Elizabeth Gilbert pulled me out of my pain. 

There is something perfect about learning how to love and know thy self on a crowded subway, that makes it all the more loving and peaceful. With every page I turn, my smile grows and with it my spirits. The love in this book is infectious, and its my favorite disease.
