I can’t believe the Moscovitzes are breaking up. I mean, they’re JUNGIAN PSYCHIATRISTS. If they can’t make a relationship work, what hope do the rest of us have?

Dear Dr. Carl Jung,

Well, I get it now. I totally get it.

It took me a while. I’ll admit it. But the truth has finally sunk in.

It’s funny how all this time, I thought transcendence would make me happy. You know, that through finally knowing my true self, I’d gain total happiness at last. Boy, did you have me fooled. You must be laughing your butt off up there in heaven or wherever you are. Because you knew, all along, didn’t you? You knew the truth.

And that’s that there is no Jungian tree of self-actualization. There is no transcendence of the ego. The Drs. Moscovitz splitting up just proves this.

The truth is, you’re all alone.

And then you die.

Don’t worry. I get it now.

This is the last letter I’ll be writing to you. Good-bye forever.

Your former friend,

Mia Thermopolis
