Somehow life turns around. It turns around you, and it turns you around. Understanding the processes may seem impossible, controlling them is futile.
There was a reason once that we listened to poeple of age, because they were people of wisdom and of experience. They would say that life is unpredictable, but somehow we stopped believing them, because you had to eat, had to sleep, had to get up and it all was so routine, so predictable.
Somehow we got stuck in a moment and believed life was those moments we inhereted from yesterday and could define.

About Me
- Ejlis
- I'm defined by whats going on in my life. i might be constantly greeneyed and small-nosed, but I'm always changing. In the moment I'm defined by up-rooting, re-rooting and thoughts of choices and changes. Could I, we, root anywhere? Are roots necessary or is it overshadowed by the restlessness in us all? Looking at world events, I feel these questions reflected around the world. it might be because I presently struggle with them and are narrowed by my own view, but I see the these struggles everywhere. Meeting people, understading their roots always seem important to me, respecting their past. And sometimes I think we underrestimate our roots, sometimes I think roots hold us back. But again, somebody has said something really clever about this:If we do not honour our past, we lose our future. If we destroy our roots, we cannot grow. (Friedensreich Hundertwasser) I just visit some of his architechture in Vienna, and fell for both his work and his quotes. Maybe, again, because they resonnate with something in me that I focus on at the moment. And this is the way my world is colored now. With Hundertwasser and the color of change.
