I'll Be You
This is my meditation for the day. You may meditate on this too, if you'd like. Or you could pick something else entirely. Like a Tarot card or a Harlequin romance novel or a piece of cold fried chicken left over from last night. You could meditate on that piece of chicken.
"A nice woman (who I suspected is probably one of these people who is like the best friend ever to have) came up to me afterwards and said, 'You can't read in front of thirty people and be uncomfortable with yourself.' But I said it's because I can pretend to be someone else, that's why I like it. I was always in school plays and on the speech team and all that and I always kind of dug being someone else, because that person was always more interesting than the real life version of me." —whatever-whenever
