what keeps us going? what makes us get up out of bed and form our body into a shape... and then form that shape into an action ...and then form that action into the things we do with our lives...
what if we just didn't do anything?
what if tomorrow i just didn't do anything?
but it's like grooming your eyebrows... life, yes it is like grooming your eyebrows...
sometimes in life we must pluck...
sometimes we are lazy or reckless and leave our brows to grow wild and free...
sometimes we pluck too much, leaving only a thin barely recognisable vestige of what once was...
we pluck and primp just because that is what society expects us to do...
shaping ourselves into an acceptable shape,
occasionally we might accidentally leave a stray hair or two...
and if we go too long without plucking, it gets harder and harder to return things back to "normality"...
so we just pluck a little day by day by day...
sometimes we focus in on one hair and puck and pick and scrape until we have made ourselves bleed...
obsessiveness indeed can lead to injury... in life and in eyebrow grooming
so tomorrow i will wake, stretch, drink water first, then coffee, go cycling for an hour, eat breakfast, brush my teeth, and then begin.
words, thoughts, letters never sent
