To evolve is to stop
A few weeks ago, (maybe it was last month, I don't quite remember and that still configures as "a few weeks ago") I was talking to a friend of mine and as usual, the subject matter in question, well, I fail to remember.
Anyways, before ado is any way furthered, as I was saying, I was talking to a friend of mine, actually more like complaining about life and everything in-between, talking about being anxious and indecisive about making decisions in life, and I said something like:
"... I want to evolve..."
And then my friend asked me:
"What does this 'evolve' means to you?"
"To evolve is to stop", I said.
It's contradictory, I know. Does it make sense to everyone? I don't know.
To stop in the sense of acceptance. To accept that you are what you are wherever you are. It's not to say that we shouldn't strive to improve, to be a better person, no, it's not that. It's simply to accept things as they are, and to not rush things and make yourself miserable in the process.
