You think because she doesn't love you that you are worthless. You think that because she doesn't want you anymore that she is right -- that her judgement and opinion of you are correct. If she throws you out, then you are garbage.

You think she belongs to you because you want to belong to her. Don't. It's a bad word, 'belong.' Especially when you put it with somebody you love. Love shouldn't be like that. Did you ever see the way the clouds love a mountain?

They circle all around it; sometimes you can't even see the mountain for the clouds. But you know what? You go up top and what do you see? His head. The clouds never cover the head. His head pokes through, beacuse the clouds let him; they don't wrap him up.

They let him keep his head up high, free, with nothing to hide him or bind him. You can't own a human being. You can't lose what you don't own. Suppose you did own her. Could you really love somebody who was absolutely nobody without you? You really want somebody like that?

Somebody who falls apart when you walk out the door? You don't, do you? And neither does she. You're turning over your whole life to her. Your whole life, man.

And if it means so little to you that you can just give it away, hand it to her, then why should it mean any more to her? She can't value you more than you value yourself.
