I want to talk about life and I want to
talk about something that one of you wrote a comment on very recently of how
you handle yourself when life falls apart.
How do you pick yourself up? How do you move on? How do you see
that there is light at the end of the tunnel, even though it feels very far away?
The way I think about life, I think about a frame, a big frame filled with different colors,
and each color representing something that is important in your life.
It can be family, friends, a loved one, a dog, your job, anything that has a meaning
that keeps you want to go on. And whenever something happens in your life
a breakup, a friend dies, your dog die or you lose your job, that color becomes black.
Which means that you are no longer whole. There is something wrong, there's
something missing in the bigger picture. And the problem is if one color is
dominating that entire frame, like you don't care about your job, you don't care
about the family or friends you just for example care about the loved one.
If that is a big part of the picture and if that doesn't go well, then suddenly a very
big part of your life, your part of your frame is black. And the way I think
about it when I'm in a good place but also when I'm in a situation like that,
is that I need the other colors to kind of start filling that gap.
I need to lean on my job or need to lean on my friends or I need to lean on
parents or if you have kids or your pet. Something that can sort of bring that color back.
Which feels very much like a Troll reference even though this is something
I've been thinking about for many years.
So obviously when things happen, when negative things happen we are hurt.
Our whole image is damaged, it's bruised. But if we can only, when we're in
that situation, if we can only think and try to feel and try to grab on to the
other colors of the frame, hoping that they will give you the energy to start
filling up that dark place. Because sometimes things happen in life that
will always leave a dark place, a scar. That is just life, because otherwise it
wouldn't matter. It wouldn't be important in your life if you could just like brush it off.
So be thankful for the people and the things you have in your life that goes well, and
that keeps you going. It keeps you going up in the morning, it keeps you going out
the door, and it keeps you wanting to come back and do it all over again.
And do new things. Keep those in mind. Keep those in your life and lean on the people
and things around you when you end up in the dark place.
Because the dark place is not forever. Just make sure as an insurance,
that you have people around you and at the same time when you notice that other people's
frames are going black, also be there, the color
of their life and help them to fill up their frame as much as possible.
Good talk.
