Out of the Box

I posted this on Facebook back in March and realized I should have also posted it on here. So now I'm making up for the 2 month absence haha.

"Our protest against convention is not protest for its own sake: it is a deliberate expression of our constant search for development and improvement." -Ingvar Kamprad

I get asked a lot if I purposefully do things differently than normal just to be different. And up until now I didn't know how to express why I try to be and am so different.

I never look at the world and think to myself "they are doing this way, so, I will do it this way instead". I just simply ask myself "why that way?" And if I find a way that I understand better, I couldn't care less if it is the "right" way to do it. It works for me and is efficient for my lifestyle.

I'm not going against to flow just for the sake of it, I do it because maybe there's a better way.

A friend of mine put it beautifully  "I [don't] think outside of the box, mostly because I didn't realize there was a box."

Post

It's now been 2 months since my last post. This is disappointing to me because of how consistent I've been the past 2 years. But I haven't decided if I'm very upset about it yet. Because it means something. There's a reason I haven't posted anything and it's not because I haven't had time. There's something inside me that compels me to share what I think. So either that thing has left or I have stopped thinking. I don't know. All this to say even short posts are something and having nothing to post say a lot.
