8.1 Asceticism





That I would be good even if I did nothing
That I would be good even if I got the thumbs down
That I would be good if I got and stayed sick
That I would be good even if I gained ten pounds
That I would be good fine even if I went bankrupt
That I would be good if I lost my hair and my youth
That I would be great i if was no longer queen
That I would be grand if I was not all knowing
That I would be loved even when I numb myself
That I would be good even when I am overwhelmed
That I would be loved even when I was fuming
That I would be good even if I was clingy
That I would be good even if I lost sanity
That I would be good
whether with or without you

- That I Would Be Good by Alanis Morissete

I'm sooo glad I didn't live in that era. I'd probably become the shame of my family. (Well, I'm kinda like that now so I shudder to think how it would be if I lived even just fifty years earlier.)
