my brother is one of my closest friends. we went to see kick ass tonight at regal while trying to get my long lost but recently found pay check situation figured out. reyes was talking to me yesterday about his siblings and what they are all up to now, and tells me that he isn't close with his younger brother because of the age gap, and that all his older brothers had moved away. i should be grateful. and i am.
parallels are everywhere. i went to see vincere on wednesday after yoga, and after watching the film all the way through, i'm at that crossroad where i decide to take my next step. there are only two options. wait, or move on alone. i say alone because i am not sure how long it will take to really move on (this could be a long process).
this was given to me in an analogy about shirts being one size too big, and continuing to purchase that size hoping that one day it'll fit. well, the shirt will never fit unless you grow to fit it or buy the size smaller. that's just how it is. if it isn't working, take it back and fix it. if that doesn't work, try something new.
i'm not in any rush for anything new, but i have been trying new means of self discipline. as an update on my no eating after 8pm policy, that is going fairly well. i've now implemented another rule, and that is that either my lunch or my dinner has to be a salad. this will be more difficult to follow. i ate my first salad since this rule tonight (i haven't had one in who knows how long). but i figure since i'm so used to eating the same thing on a regular basis, this won't be a huge deal for me.
i have until the end of june to read 10 books. i'm working on it.
movies to see:
the greatest
the secret of kells
exit through the gift shop
mother
harry brown
the good heart
making the distinction between doing something because it seems right (and the harder route) or doing it because i want to (the foolish route).
