I got a lot more out of "Eat, Pray, Love" when I listened to her read it than I did reading it myself. <br /><br />I love her writing, and I can see how it might sway you on the marriage front, but I'd say your conclusions should be based on your temperament and your experiences - just as hers are. :)Irenicinerihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00213887758973844108noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2093518180664201814.post-51490173832615707322010-02-08T14:34:52.721-08:002010-02-08T14:34:52.721-08:00This is a fantastic post - have you read Elizabeth...This is a fantastic post - have you read Elizabeth Gilbert's "Committed" yet?

When I was in Israel, visiting the Bedouins, an herbalist among them put hyssop in our hot, sweet tea (the weather was in the high 90s, in the desert) to help promote our sweating so we could stay cool. And it worked. Wild. <br /><br />Medicinally, the herb has some volatile chemicals in it (herbally speaking) which can help ease respiratory problems and nasal congestion - i.e. cold symptoms, which is why I drink it when it's raining. I have a tendency to fall ill when I get rained on. <br /><br />Fun fact: Hippocrates used hyssop to treat bronchitis.Irenicinerihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00213887758973844108noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2093518180664201814.post-12116105488272413932010-02-06T19:32:33.726-08:002010-02-06T19:32:33.726-08:00Your writing is beautiful and calming.
