How an addiction can actually be healthy

 

If you love something set it free…if it comes back, it’s yours, if it doesn’t it was never meant to be.
How poignant.
It’s also bullshit.

I’ve loved plenty of things and set them free. Only to have them return and fuck-up my life even more than it was before they left.
Concluding that perhaps the saying needs a 2012 makeover…

If you love something, set it free…then change the locks, alarm code, your email address, phone number, delete your blog, cancel your Facebook account, Yelp under an assumed name, find a new Starbucks, laundromat, city park in which to walk your dog, and start parking your car in the garage…if it comes back, call your friend who raises cattle, ask him for some of those veterinary grade tranquilizers and prepare to live life in a blurry fog…repeat until she finally goes away for good.

I’m pretty sure it’s not an addiction if you really love something—is it?
Or is it.

Yeah, no, it isn’t.
Is it?
