The Essence of Mike

Tonight, on Six Feet Under, something was said about Rico that seems to have some relevence to me. The quick background story is Rico was married to Vanessa, but two seasons ago cheated on her once but lied to Vanessa about it. This lead to the separation and soon divorce. In the first episode of the final season that aired tonight, Rico and Vanessa are talking about things and Vanessa says to Rico "You need to be with someone. Me, I am ok alone, but you work better with someone." That's when it hit me. It's not that I'm dying to be in a relationship or anything of that nature. I'm actually happiest alone because it allows me to be me and not have to work at pleasing anyone. But the reality is, I think I work better overall with someone. I'm a "better" person, I guess. This is what I think, but what intelligence can be found at 1:00 AM after the 3 hours of sleep I got last night.
