Change

But start slowly, because the direction is more important than speed. Sit down in another chair, on the other side of the table. Later, change the table. When the floor look out across the street, then change the path, walk on other streets, calmly, carefully noting the places where you spend. Take other buses. Change for a while the style of clothes. Give your old shoes. Try walking barefoot for a few days. Take a whole afternoon to walk freely on the beach or the park and hear the song of birds. See the world from other perspectives. Open and close the drawers and the door with the left hand. Sleep on the other side of the bed ... then try to sleep in other beds. Watch other TV shows, buy other newspapers ... read other books, other living Romance. Do not make a habit of life-style. Love the new. Sleep early. Sleep later. Learn a new word a day in another language. Please correct the posture. As a little less. Choose different foods, new season, new colors, new delights. Try the new every day. the new part, the new method, the new flavor, the new way, the new pleasure, a new love, new life. Try. Find new friends, try new love. Make new relationships. Lunch at other places go to other restaurants. Take another type of drink, buy bread at another bakery. Early lunch, dinner later or vice versa. Choose another market ... another brand of soap, toothpaste ... other take bath at other times. Use other colors of pens. Go walk elsewhere. Love much, increasingly, in different ways. Change of stock exchange, portfolio of bags, change of car, buy new glasses, write other poems. Play old clocks, gently break the appalling clocks. Open an account at another bank. Go to other cinemas, other cabeleleiros, other theaters, new museums visit. Change. Remember that life is one. And think seriously get another job in a new occupation, a more light, more pleasurable, more decent, more humane. If you do not find reasons to be free, invent them. Be creative. And to take a trip unpretentious, long, if possible without destination. Try new things. Change again. Change again. Try again. You certainly know better things and things worse than the already known, but that is not what matters. The most important is the change, the movement the dynamism, energy, all that is dead does not change! Again by sheer joy of life: salvation is at risk, without which the life not worth it.
