“Leave me a like. Comment too.
Thanks.”
“I need an account to do that,” I said.
“I don’t have an account.”
“Well, make one.”
“I need an e-mail address to make
an account.”
“Are you telling me you don’t have
an e-mail address?”
“I forgot the password.”
“Oh, why do you have to be like that?
You wouldn’t move a finger
to help anyone. Ever! How can you
live like that? You’re… uh, horrible!”
“Okay, listen. Here’s what I’ll do. I’ll make
an e-mail address and give you the password
so you can make an account for me
and leave likes and comments on every
post. How about that?”
She didn’t answer.
And didn’t text me for a while
A few months later she sent me an
invitation to her wedding.
I didn’t go.
After she got married she stopped
posting on her blog
Her husband was ten years older than her
and they moved to the UK
A few months later a common friend mentioned
she was having a baby
and showed me pictures of it
on the various social media sites that
portrayed life at its absolute perfection
The account was full of pictures of
quotes from self-help books
‘It’s never too late to be what you
might have been.’
‘Dream positive or wake up!’
‘Shoot for the moon! Even if you miss
you’ll still land among the stars.’
‘When things aren’t going well in your life
scream to yourself STOP! and think
of all the ways things can go right from
then on.’
‘Remember that what you think
and feel now creates your future!’
‘Doing it badly is infinity times
better than not doing it.’
‘HOPE is the best medicine.’
‘Always ask yourself, what would the best
version of myself do?’
‘Actions first, feelings later. Act on your values.’
And on and on.
And a few months later she divorced and left
the UK
Her girlfriends said the husband was
abusive
The girls who weren’t so close to her
said that she cheated on him
the truth was probably somewhere
in the middle
Now she was living on child support
and returned to writing her
blog
Only this time the posts weren’t so much
about the law of attraction and more
about her life and what she’d been through
and what d’ you know,
they were actually good
they were worth reading.
It worked!
the law of attraction worked
Her blog was finally popular
it was getting likes
and comments and followers
I read the latest post titled
“When you’re going through hell, keep going”
and it was good
there was some real feeling behind
each paragraph
each word
She made it
and now I sit back and wait for the post
titled
“Nothing comes without a price”
or something like that.
