continuity is not the same as stagnation

I choose to see the same few people
coz they are good for me and I like them
and I am open to meeting new ones that can become friends

I prefer to eat my favourite dishes
coz they are a comfort and require little energy
and I am curious about trying food I have never tasted (especially if I don’t have to cook it)

I like being in my flat
coz it feels like home and I don’t interact
and I am excited riding my bike on unknown grounds

I like having a rough plan for my week,
coz this does justice to everything I’d like to do
and I am happy throwing all my plans overboard to soak in the hot tub

I like knowing when he sleeps at my place
coz this brings me joy and time to shave my legs
and I am lucky we often decide spontaneously where we sleep

I like spending time on my rituals of mindfulness
coz they give me inner peace and silence
and I am keen on just following new voices

Continuity pampers the soul, feeds my heart and leads to me being relaxed. It also gives me a sense of security and awareness of self.

Stagnation leads to me feeling stuck.

I am glad I am not standing still.

I am glad I am moving.
