Good girl
Gail's French psychotherapist kept telling her that she needed to take better care of herself. "Il ne faut pas se laisser aller. You are the only one who is responsible for yourself and your life", was his recurring reply to all Gail's problems and concerns.
Gail went on a diet, bought herself a closetful of expensive clothes and hired a personal fitness trainer. The therapist thought this was a good start, but he stressed that Gail must work on all aspects of life. "You deserve the best for yourself. Why are you living in a depressing neighbourhood?" Gail moved to a stylish appartment and an interior designer helped her decorate the place to fit her personality. A few months later, she changed jobs to challenge herself, and started evening courses for personal development. With every choice she made, she sought to maximise the benefits for herself.
In the end, Gail led a fabulous life. But at night she cried from exhaustion, after all this hard work for someone who never even liked her.
