It’s like I can’t be attached to nothing these days :/

Let’s kiss under water, I say

It won’t work.

But I always see it in movies, I say

Movie’s aren’t real.

​
They’ve been lying to us for years. The End, they said.
The End!
But movies aren’t real
and neither are those so-called "endings"
​
Change is real. Change is the realest thing we’ll encounter in our lifetimes. But endings? Those little fuckers are illusions.

​

Resistance to change does not prevent the change from occurring.

My newsletter reminder to self has changed and although I have not acknowledged the change, it’s true. To be completely honest with myself: reminder to self doesn’t exist anymore. It is a chapter that has ended. I haven’t felt compelled to remind myself of much lately, now that I’m thinking about it, I’ve probably arrived. You know? Like my brain has fully developed and I’m kinda done now. I just know everything I need to know.

(That was a very funny joke)

Bottomline: I want to write in dutch. I’ve been writing a lot in dutch. And I’ve been withholding sharing because I made up a rule to write in english and felt trapped. (but maybe also i still want to write in English sometimes) Good thing I’ve realized that the rules I make up, I can also unmake. Sometimes restrictions are helpful, necessary even (reference to reminder to self #1). They can make creating easier by limiting options and therefore choice paralysis, but there’s a keerzijde. When the thing that once made your life easier starts to limit you...

And then comes the fear. Oh, the fear can be paralysing! I’m not ready to change! A force inside of us begs for everything to stay the same - but resistance to change does not prevent the change from occurring.

Open your eyes and see that everything has already changed.

​

Reminder to self?

Surrender to change.

During a walk I realised that your life is the most precious artwork you will ever make. I jotted down the sentence and it kept resonating. Even now as I revisit the sentence, I feel strongly about it.

We create the artwork that is our life through our choices.

Jean Paul Sartre wrote: “I can always choose, but I ought to know that if I do not choose, I am still choosing.”

Every single moment of life, we are choosing. Changing, choosing, choosing change. choo choo cha cha choo cha choo

reminder to self will change into Nooit Meer Haast :-)

How exciting!
