The Mind is a Filter



"When the rational mind is silenced, the intuitive mind produces an extraordinary awareness; the environment is experienced in a direct way without the filter of conceptual thinking" (Capra, The Tao of Physics).

Concepts and theories are not experience.

Life cannot be categorized.

I am still categorizing life...

My labels allow me to live in a safe box promising stability and predictability.

There is no formula for life.

I am trying to break free from others' recipes for life. They are not mine and thus will never work, no matter how much I try to impose them.

Fuck what society deems as acceptable and professional behavior.

Expectations ruin life, love, experience.

LIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIVE!
