We are the stories we tell

We are the stories we tell. In this Universe and in this existence, where we live with this duality whether we exist or not and who we are, the stories we tell are the stories that define the potentiality of our existence. A story is the relationship between who you potentially are and the infinite world….

Everybody has a story that they follow.

Jag längtar bort till mina gamla gravar,
min sorgsna storhet gråter bittra tårar

Nestbeschmutzer

Fagelbo
Nestbeschmutzer is a German word. We don’t really have any similar to it in Swedish and I don’t believe there is one in English either. I found it when I was reading about Thomas Bernhard on Wikipedia. I’ve been talking about this for years but I never found the right word for it until now.

I kind of like this picture of Albert Einstein and Niels Bohr. Two of the world’s greatest physicists of all time trying to look relaxed in their woolen suits.

The ultimate fortune cookie

Today I got the ultimate fortune cookie with my thai – In dreams and in life, nothing is impossible. I really needed this encouragement because it wasn’t as great as I imagined it to be when I finished my first manuscript.
