"oooh. it. feels good to be free."

yes it does, jenny lewis.

i've been thinking a lot lately. whenever i end a relationship there's this sense of relief. i feel like myself again. but i don't remember losing myself. i can't really see where or why it happened. but it does. and its obviously me if it keeps happening. there are certain people in my life that remind me who i am and what i'm about just by spending time with them, and i've been hanging with them a lot lately and it feels good.

maybe i'm not mature enough to be in a relationship

maybe i need to learn a little something about equanimity

maybe i needed to experience this several times to get it right

maybe i should try being single for more than a few weeks, see what that's all about
