More Myself

A private entry in my public journal:

I’m having deep thoughts along the “Now what do I do with my life?” 
I was watching bits of “The Bridges of Madison County” on youtube and came across this quote from Meryl Streep’s character, Francesca, while she is lying in the bathtub with the guy.  
“And in that moment. everything I knew to be true about myself up until then was gone. I was acting like another woman, yet I was more myself than ever before.” 
I’ve been wondering if I am going to be like her… find the man, be truly myself for 4 days, and now slip back into my other life, never to see him again.
