Did the most Mundane things excite you as a little Kid?
Have you become Boring and Annoyed … like a cliché Adult??
Well, you won’t see the Beauty, if you don’t look for it.
As a kid, that’s ALL we’re after.
You naturally saw Magic in EVERYTHING.
Fascinated by an unusual flicker of light.
A bird interacting.
Entertained by a funny looking chair.
The glistening beauty of the morning.
A hilarious situation next to you.
You were overflowing with energy
and hilariously creative ideas on what to do all day.
You saw how much happier people around you could be.
You were revolutionising the world in your head.
So. Fucking. Lively and Keen.
.
You seriously did not expect to change.
You miss Creativity.
How did it become a distant memory?
You seem to have “grown up”
conforming more and more,
like a “normal” person.
See only problems, no opportunities.
Work every week, forget what to even do in your free time.
No excitement.
Worn down, rigid in adult logic.
Life just slowly dissolving into bullshit.
How come I liked all this stuff so much as a kid?
Are we actually still seeing the world like we used to
or have we put on different Glasses?
.
I was a super creative happy kid
with a father that didn’t give 2 shits about Art.
I’d find a 1000 ways to make you smile.
Showing you a better way of seeing the world.
Endlessly happy seeing a leaf fall off a tree or a funny drawing of a cat.
I’ve come into this adult world, thinking:
“FUCK YEAH this is the most beautiful place,
only getting better as I discover more.”
I left to see the world.
I wanted to only be FREE, experience life, do crazy shit.
But I needed to work now, cook, do all this lame crap.
Every day, every week, what the hell.
I let it gnaw on my brain.
I would think “we’ll this isn’t productive” when I saw a funny cat drawing.
When I saw a leaf fall, “I need to get 10 more pages done, fuck”
I felt poor. Like I had nothing.
I forgot what’s so cool about life.
I became NORMAL, seeing only problems.
How do you even BE creative anymore?
How did I change my core fucking being?!
.

THE MORE YOU LOOK, THE MORE YOU SEE.
You and me just accidentally took off our Artist Glasses.
Life hasn’t become crap. We just turned blind.
If we put them back on, we’ll be more than alright.
Find the plainest shit exciting again.
Like the good part of being on drugs
You’ll stop and stare at unusual little details, happily curious in your brain.
The supermarket will be FASCINATING
Driving home will be engaging
You’ll notice the trippy floating star pattern on the ceiling fan.
Your brain will drop hilarious new thoughts again,
that make you fucking excited.
Funny as jokes to tell your wife.
Dude, it’s possible.
There will be NEW things again, no same old what the fuck forever.
Seeing the world this way came to you naturally as a kid,
now it’ll come after you practice a couple times.
Open your eyes and don’t immediately guide them “where they need to be”
and the beauty will enter your eyes.
.
This 1 tiny Exercise is the fucking recipe.
If you don’t practice this, you keep getting deeper into your normie thoughts that fucking depress you.
This is stimulating those brain paths to get Active again
and give you beauty appreciation feels for FREE.
After a few times it’ll just suddenly stand out to you again :)
