Someone very dear to me once told me that i was complicated. Of course, i was devastated at being labeled that way by this particular person as what he thought of me meant a lot to me so much that i sought to appear the opposite in his eyes thereafter.
Needless to say the path to "simple" was short lived as an attempt to shift the self from one dimension of consciousness to another for someone's sake felt inauthentic. Besides, i grappled with the concept of what a person who was not "complicated" should be like.
What felt true to me later however was to weed out the negatives from the word and to acknowledge, embrace and honor the intricate in me. Et voila, ComplexlyBilu!
The picture above feels like a reflection of me, my life and the people in it - rich, diverse, intricate, multilayered and COMPLEX!
I am grateful to the beautiful soul who by telling me what he thought, helped me unravel what could be and unwrap the gift of self acceptance. What follows is a series of short and long posts that capture moments, spaces, times and places as i see them.
Until later...
hola guapa, you certainly don't suffer from a paucity of tautegorical linguistic artifice and i am looking forward to reading more from you. :)
