cmsa; todays blog courtesy Soma Snakeoil; i love it when people talk about "real" stuff, like this, and she paints too!
"I’m not saying give up desire, but what about that tenuous place of wanting and not having-and being okay with whatever happens? Yes, focus on a positive outcome. Yes, work towards goals. Yes, wake up each morning with an intent to crush the day. And. Nothing lasts. Neither success, failure, commitment or a sense of being satiated. Not only is success fleeting, failure is a form of success. We gain from both. Not having is as interesting and Illuminative as having, if we choose that perspective. Tension is as delicious as release. Savor not knowing. Taste uncertainty. What happens if you don’t get everything you desire? Deny yourself something special today. You deserve it.
