"I love you too Richard but I love me more."
Just watched SATC with my seriously addicted, of course she didn't catch the fever til after the show ended, roommate. In any case, what a great quote right? It's a nice slap in the face to whoever the offender is, poignant, and sometimes (dammit) you have to put yourself first. Something I've never been too good at. You figure you're born the way you are for a reason right? Everything should work coming out of the showroom, shouldn't it? Maybe. Maybe not. I guess it depends, sometimes it's your environment and the people around you that force you to change whether it's conscious or not. I think it may all be situational. You wouldn't change if there wasn't a need to would you? We're all need-based creatures after all. The things we need change from person to person but the innate instinct is the same. So at that moment, Samantha realized that while she needed Richard (in whatever way), she recognized that she needed to be personally fulfilled first and foremost. Yay Samantha! Yes yes, laugh away that I'm making SATC so deep but it provoked the aforementioned thought.

It reminds me of this quote from Ally McBeal back in the day:
"Ally, why do you think your problems are so much bigger than everyone elses?"
"Because they're mine."
Go on sista- I'm glad you realized that sometimes you just gotta stand back, look at yourself and then realize that its time to do a little Barb pampering, spend some "ME-TIME". SO important, because- if your not happy- I'm not happy, and it literally is because you will be a much better person once you've recognized that at times you need to put yourself first.
Except maybe when its back massage time.. yes. Then please feel free to always put Ajoy ahead of the game =)
I just watched this episode last night!
