Stop Insanity!

Stop Insanity!

I saw this book while cleaning the computer nook this afternoon and it interest me. Susan Powter, the author of Stop Insanity just smacked me. The book is about weight-loss guide stuffed, not that I need to lose weight but the title itself tapped my brain a little. The two words had roused something confrontational inside me and my inner self.

“Hey! Have you seen the book?” my inner self said to me.

I didn’t reply, instead, I put the book on the dining table where the rest of the books I gathered from the computer nook lie.

“Have you read the title of the book?” my inner self asked me again, she doesn’t want to let go of me. She had made me stand still in front of the pile of books. And the Stop Insanity seems like shouting out loud at me. How I cannot read the title? Oh, I don’t read the title. I heard the title and I keep on hearing him (I just assume it’s a he. I have a lot of she in my life, I have two sisters and no brother, my father is the only male species around the house where I spent all of my life, so this time I want a he)

And he, the book, is shouting at me. Barking at me (or is it Rocky my employer’s dog is barking?) STOP INSANITY! STOP YOUR INSANITY!)

“Oh my GOD! Yeah, so?” I yelled my inner self. I want her to know that I am mad. I want her to go away.

“You’ve been whining a lot.” My inner self uttered a statement, she wasn’t asking at this time. “You’re working, but still whining. I can hear your sob. They are so low but little by little, you’re not noticing the dirge. It all came from your mouth. I saw you a few times going inside the wash room. And there, you were crying. You can’t stop the whining until you cry.”

Stopping. Thank GOD my inner self stopped.

“You’re not insane, are you?” my inner self asked me again.

    Chica,

    My inner self is a great companion. She tells me what the people I want to speak with don’t or can’t (I want to believe that they want to tell me something, but they can’t say it to me) say. Those people don’t show but my inner self does. She’s always with me, usually nagging lol!

    I have heard of that person, haven’t read the book. I did saw her on TV once when she carried the fat equivalent in lard that she lost by exercising. Amazing in a gross kind of way.
