I had been there before…

Hadn’t I just?

We all wake up to this idea, every morning that we are doing the same thing all over again. The same routine, the same dishes, the same clothes. 

When does it end? Perhaps this is why us humans get caught up in new shiny things, shiny objects, and new styles. 

For the change                                                                                                                         For the adaptability                                                                                                                     In order for us to not feel like we have been somewhere before. 

We can go to the same restaurant multiple times and each time will be different - the food, the company, vibe, decor, how we feel and that’s what ultimately matters, how we feel. 

Routine can bring structure and boredom                                                                                It can be caging yet freeing                                                                                                         It can allow for ease and flow yet the repetition can make one feel like they want to end things.

You’ve been there before                                                                                                  You’ve done it before                                                                                                            You’ve felt it before                                                                                                                You’ve lived it before                                                                                                              What else is left?                                                                                                                     

How can you change the way that you’ve been there before?
