The whole thing is meant to be about love and how women love. What happened with me was, six or seven years ago, I was at the airport and I picked up a biography of Mother Theresa, which I thought was going to be this generic overview. It ended up being a compilation of all these letters that she’d written during the course of her life. And they were to family, friends and intimate people in her life. And they were so obsessively consumed with her relationship with God and her love. It was so up and down, with all of the same euphoria, the same self-punishment and torture we put ourselves through in relationships. I was mesmerized that her life was filled with the same sort of relationship dramas like mine and other women’s.
