The mind is a complex, ungraspable tool. It is multi-layered, as is life. In fact, there is life in everything.

The amount of depth in everything, depends on the one that is observing

Look at a tree. From a distance, just a tree. In a forest, the trees make up the forest. But sitting in front of the tree, and observing, it becomes a universe, a miracle of nature, a divine creation. The concept of tree in its perfect expression.

As it is with writing. Sitting in front of your subject, and observing with an open and spacious mind, it becomes transparent. The subject amongst other subjects become boring, invisible and uninteresting.

A flat in a suburb is just a flat, sit in front of the flat, and notice the different lives behind each window, the stories lived within it, the lifes lived.

So we need to sit in front of our subject?

Even better, let the subject first emerge out of nothing

The subject that arises is your mind's eye, when you feel expanded, creative and inspired, is most likely the one that needs to come out.

Its like a birth, each blog…
