Metamorphosis.

Metamorphosis - everyone goes through it, whether we like it or not. From the time we are conceived in the womb of our mother, change happens and rather quickly.


Throughout the years, we are in the state of constant development. Allow me to quote...
 
Nothing can ever happen twice.
In consequence, the sorry fact is
that we arrive here improvised
and leave without the chance to practice.
 
Even if there is no one dumber
if you’re the planet’s biggest dunce,
you can’t repeat the class in summer:
this course is only offered once.
 
No day copies yesterday,
no two nights will teach what bliss is
in precisely the same way,
with precisely the same kisses.
 
One day, perhaps some idle tongue
mentions your name by accident:
I feel as if a rose were flung
into the room, all hue abnd scent
 
The next day, though you’re here with me,
I can’t help looking at the clock:
A rose? A rose? What could that be?
Is that a flower or a rock?
 
Why do we treat the fleeting day
with so much needless fear and sorrow?
It’s in its nature not to say
Today is always gone tomorrow.
 
With smiles and kisses, we prefer
to seek accord beneath our star,
although we’re different (we concur)
just as two drops of water are.
~Wisława Szymborska


 
Wisława Szymborska is one of my favourite poets. She speaks straight to my soul, and I could say, that in a way, she feeds it, makes it whole. She always has a point and in my opinion expresses herself clearly, so that almost anyone can understand. 
 
Some people don't notice that we change on daily basis.
Some people don't want to change.
Some people are waiting for the moment of change in their lives.
What makes us a whole, is the fact that we change simultaneously; most of the time, we don't even have a care in the world.
I have days were, I just can't be asked to do anything. Every living soul annoys me and I feel like there is no resolution. That's when my diary comes in. It helps tons... Writing to an imaginary person may seem childish, but it seriously helps. It's like cleaning your room. After the cleaning part, it feels fresh and you can't believe you did that all by yourself. But then you finally realise that IT WAS ALL YOU. INDEPENDENT - ALL ON YOUR OWN!!
That's the victory part, that's when you faced your obstacles, tackled with them.
From my personal experiences, you have to tackle because there is no other way to get what you want. It's either manipulation or being honest and brave and facing the actual problem. And believe me, manipulation is not going to get you anywhere.

 

So is change a good thing or a bad thing??

I can't answer that. Not only do I not know the answer, but I think that it will be best if you decide. At the end of the day, our lives are our lives. Me sitting in front of the computer writing this isn't going to change anything. I might have the chance of inspiring you, getting through to you or something along those lines, but further - no.
 
So think about what I've written, consider the question. Decide if you want to enjoy the 'metamorphosis ride' or if  you are going to be bitter about it all of you life. Thank you for reading and to sum everything up, here are some of the best quotes I found on 'problems' and 'change'. ;)
Good Day.

The second one in a row...

Hi there,
Whoever you are, I'm probably guessing your sitting in front of your computer or laptop or phone, and you've decided to see what I blog about... The only problem is, my blog is just the beginning of something, it's always going to be leading somewhere new. You can't really define a blog unless you define it. Yes, that's a very confusing sentence, though there is some sense in it. My blog is about me. My life, interests, the things going on around me, that surround me and basically how I see the world. You can't really brand that, can you???

So if you want to learn new stuff along the way, or get motivated, or just have something to read for a cosy night in, you might as well become a follower and read on. I want to be in a constant state of development and I'm aware that that takes time and patience (by all means am I prepared to put that bit of effort in). I want to be the one to inspire you - the reader. You can share anything on this page, whether it has something to do with what I'm interested in or not. I'm open to anything.

I hope you don't understand me in the wrong way, this isn't a post asking for you to follow. I don't want that. I want you guys to subscribe only if you want to; you don't feel like it - THEN DON'T. For anything to work out in life (it's kind of how it works), you have to be decisive and just know that the thing you're thinking about is exactly what you're looking for!


My day....

 
Coat, Skirt & Scarf - H&M.  Top, Hat, Legwarmers & tights  - ? Boots - Wojas






Army Boots <3 - Wojas
Ania et moi <33

Today was a pretty hectic day. I met up with my friend Ania  her page :)
Other than that stayed at home. We talk loads and had a few of our laughter moments, and overall, it was great!!! I really can't complain anymore about my friends, because I have quiet a few that really mean something to me, not to forget my parents.
Whilst we are on the topic of parents, I can't seem to imagine how teens or any child can not have a 'best friend' relationship with their parents, I really can't! My parents are a huge part of my life and I can confide in them 24/7. I have to admit, we have our fights, but we get past them and move on :)))))

For today, that's it, don't worry, there'll be more soon <3

A fresh comeback :)

I decided to continue writing this blog because I don't feel like being a quitter. (The second reason is because I wanted to give it another try.)

In reference to this, I want to point out that, throughout the years of my life, I've definitely given up too easily, and this is something I want to reduce gradually, simply because I see it as a flaw. I know I'm not the only one here, many people have this problem. But there are a few people in my friends 'group' that are much more determined, maybe less talented than me, that may actually accomplish something because of the fact that they are focused on achieving (only what they what is important, everything else can wait).

From many anecdotes I've heard, this is one of the main conclusions I've come up with. Some of you may see it as a simple one, an untrue one, or even a childish one, but I think that it is fair to say, that everyone has the right to express their opinion. And I THINK, that it's in the genes. And that the people that are talented, need to get a grip on themselves, because there will be a point in your life, when talent won't get you through exams. That's when the ones that sit down and revise skip the waiting list - it doesn't matter that you're more intelligent sophisticated, who cares about that. No one will give you a job knowing that you are Einstein but can't be bother to move your so-called 'butt' and work your ass off. I guess, you could call this the 'that's life' phrase. All I know is that we shouldn't. What will it give us?  You all know the answer.

Anyway, getting back to what I was going to say....

Over the past few months, a lot of the key factors in my life have dramatically changed. Friends, habits etc. To sum up my 'vacation', here are some photos to give you a little feel:

Late October 2013 - a secret attic I discovered with my mum/photographer :)




I hope to share with you all more of my life, and to inspire you, like other bloggers inspire me! ;)
P.S. I'm open to any suggestions or comments you might have, so please doooo leave a comment - reading them always makes me smile :)
