So there is this thing that has been happening for a while that has started to freak me out, on Foxtel they play Sex and the City episodes on Saturday and Sundays in blocks and its always worth a watch when there is little else on.
Sporadically I have flicked over for a little 'Sex' action and without exception the episode playing has some kind of message for what is specifically going on in my life. Many would say a show about single women and their lives of course most women would identify, but the bit that freaks me out is that no matter what part of what season it just seems to hit the nail on the head. Now for those without an intimate knowledge of SATC history and or the movie there is a storyline with Carrie and a man called Mr Big that started in the first episode and in some way or another was still going all the way through to the last episode of the last season and then the movie......and throughout the whole thing this is the one relationship that I personally identified with and of course loved the happy ending in the movie because honestly what girl doesn't!
So today's lesson from Season three, was Miranda getting into an argument with Carrie about not going back to Mr Big because she doesn't like the person that Carrie becomes when she is around Big, the quote is 'You become needy and insecure and I don't like it' also followed when they reconcile as friends 'Don't let him kiss you that is where you seem to run into trouble'.....and do you know what its true, its always true.
Every logical person would say yes walk away if someone turns your life upside down, makes you cry and things are never just easy and simple.......and I wish I could, but there is something to be said for a love that can hurt as much as it does fill you with joy, to have a real struggle before things finally work out and for them to drive you crazy one moment and then make you laugh so much it hurts....to have an epic love. Isn't an epic love worth fighting for or is it all really just part of the constructed fairytale that we are fed to believe from a young age and we are all just wasting our time?
At the moment I am standing at a crossroad of an epic love and it has come to the time to make a very big decision, do I believe in the epic love one last time or should I take the other road and just walk away once and for all. For now only time will tell.
