#Day16 #Inktober
#ThingsToAccept
There will be some days in life, when things will be out of the control of your mind. Nothing will go as planned and this will drive you insane. In those days, don’t hold it in, let yourself free. Let the wild thoughts come in succession like dunes in the desert. Let it flow through you. Because when this internal storm will be over, you will be a different person.
“Sometimes fate is like a small sandstorm that keeps changing directions. You change direction but the sandstorm chases you. You turn again, but the storm adjusts. Over and over you play this out, like some ominous dance with death just before dawn. Why? Because this storm isn’t something that blew in from far away, something that has nothing to do with you. This storm is you. Something inside of you. So all you can do is give in to it, step right inside the storm, closing your eyes and plugging up your ears so the sand doesn’t get in, and walk through it, step by step. And once the storm is over you won’t remember how you made it through, how you managed to survive. You won’t even be sure, in fact, whether the storm is really over. But one thing is certain. When you come out of the storm you won’t be the same person who walked in. That’s what this storm’s all about.”
Haruki Murakami, Kafka on the Shore
