Never the Same...

 

Never the same... every new experience changes us a little. Subtle, but none the less change occurs. Every experience leaves an impression on you, a person, an event, a trip, a meal, a scent, a taste...a kiss, a man, a woman. Transformation is amazing, because we're never the same...ever!!! Yesterday to today...this month to last month...this year to last year. You ever look at pictures of yourself and think...I look so different. Whether I was skinnier, heavier, more brunette, blonder, younger, short hair, long hair...and that's just physical. What about emotion, intelligence, education, travel and the endless things I could list. Life can be so damn interesting if we let it, yet we're such creatures of habit. Almost sad that we are willing to sometimes live a drab existence, making excuses as to why we don't bother changing or doing anything new. Creating new and transforming experiences in our lives isn't easy. Most important piece is to sustain your own attention first, forget about anybody Else's...that comes later. Second piece is passion...lots of it, then persevering through obstacles and frustrations so you can trudge forward! Otherwise you're likely to fizzle out quickly and be miserable.  Glass half empty? Half Full? Just guzzle it down!!! Embrace paradoxes. We live in a paradoxical world. Paradoxes explore different sides to the same reality...don't be afraid to hold things in tension with one another. It may get you to further reflect your life and explain the world a bit better. 

What you will find is that...

You will never be the same...

Never the same...

Again...
