Spend it all.

Spend.

Spend words.

Spend thoughts.

Do not accept to live on the surface.

Use all your energy to elaborate, to create, to make it extremely complicated.

Forget the "keep it simple".

Everything can be simple, still you can live it deeply and intensively.

Complicated means alive.

Make questions. Lots of.

Ask yourself difficult questions.

Force yourcelf on the long and winding path.

The steep climb gets to the heights.

Make it impossible to fall asleep late at night.

Impossible to close your eyes.

Impossible to neglet, to forget all the question marks hunting your mind.

Be inconvenient and say what you think.

Dare think what you really want to think.

Make it tough to wake up and smile.

Ask why.

Ask again. And again.

Seek truth. Accept the rarity of truth. Never give up looking for it.

Wear a mask, every day, and pretend to be a simple person.

Do not even think for a moment to become one.

Do not put yourself on sale.

Mumble mumble..

A giant spiderweb, that's what everything is in the end.

A world of connections.

Everything linked to everything, nothing isolated, nothing for itself.

I've been trying hard and long to build my isolation. At least enought to understand that I can't help it.

I need to start working on my branches, to get them strong and willing for height.

Webs, branches, strings.

 A labyrinth.

Actually, I've never been too keen to get lost in giant labyriths.

But that's what life is turning out to be, so I need to learn my way out.

I just hope time will be on my side.

"She had the perpetual sense, as she watched the taxi cabs, of being out, out, far out to sea and alone; she always had the feeling that it was very, very, dangerous to live even one day.”
― Virginia Woolf, Mrs. Dalloway
