5 Short Quotes

"If you like where you are, keep moving. It was your desire to change your location that pushed you into an edgy comfort zone of sorts, and now it's time to leave that behind." - Epiphanie Bloom

'Change' is not the counterpoint to 'staying the same'. Staying the same is wishful thinking. We live in a world without repetition. Nothing recurs, except in our imaginations. - Epiphanie Bloom

The impassioned pursuit of certainty is the height of futility - Epiphanie Bloom

Embrace contradictions, and their counterpoints - Epiphanie Bloom

It's the thought process that created the product you perceive as finished that really interests me, not the product itself. It's the thoughts you've been denying, suppressing, distorting, underappreciating - your process of personal change. - Epiphanie Bloom

  1. cool! All excellent observations. I know many a person who came unstuck in the pursuit of certainty. It's because our culture tries to make a certainty out of itself. In eastern culture I think the idea of impermanence is more established and therefore people are better able to deal with uncertainty and change.

  2. Thank you for your comment! =)

    Change is the only way we can get from one moment to the next, and yet much of our culture is built in response to, and as a result of, the search for certainty. It's quite absurd, really! ;)

  3. True amazing how many people fight desperately against change, against the inevitable. Causes allot of suffering in my opinion.
