Slight

Written by Jacob Ibrag

Unrecognizable. She looked exactly as she

always did, and yet something was different. When

asking her what had changed, she replied that it was a

slight shift in her thinking. ‘I realized that there’s more to

breath than understanding the mechanics of balancing

yet another equation. It became more important to

celebrate this existence rather than question it.’

    ‘I realized that there’s more to breath than understanding the mechanics of balancing
    yet another equation.’…perfect.

    Hmm… interesting. I guess she learnt to let go and appreciate the universe from a mystical perspective. Kinda helps with the angst related to all the uncertainty and confusion. But maybe it’s a temporary change (hopefully). Being too indifferent to the workings of the universe kinda makes us susceptible to believe in unfounded things, I think. But it’s good to let go once in a while and just be at peace with one’s lack of knowledge. 🙂

    Finally stopped, trying to figure things out, and just, accepting the world as is, and, you will be able to, make changes in your current conditions…
