Yearn (2013)
“She liked the one-sided dimension this skewed vision gave her. It seemed to simplify her complicated world and the endless financial responsibility that had colored everything lately.
“2009, 2009,” she thought to herself, “where have the last two years gone?” She lay in bed a little longer but the rose-colored heat leaked in under her eyelids. “I can only shut the day out for so long,” she thought, snuggling down further into the cool Egyptian cotton sheets. “Besides”—and at this point her ...eyes snapped open—“life is vitality, vitality is good, and I am vital,” she murmured with as much enthusiasm as she could muster. It was the mantra her life coach/trainer had instructed her to repeat every morning upon waking. It was meant to counteract her current malaise, a postdivorce depression that had lingered for months matched with downward-spiraling self-esteem.
“I’m here to triumph, make a new start and all that other New Age bullshit,”MoreLess
