"Camera obscura of the mind" , by Erik Pevernagie, oil on canvas xxx
All incidents we experience are warily interpreted and translated into the dark chamber of our minds. They inspire us to decide how to behave, think, and act. They prompt our preferences and our way of visualizing the world. Then, the mind opens itself to welcome the enchantments of life or tear up destructive thinking patterns. The brain becomes a precious, resilient partner indeed. By retracing the emotional fragments lost in the turns and splits of the past, we may learn to reconstruct a shattered self, find a sensible present, and prepare to inhabit a share of the future. If we are out of step with the priorities of real life and feel lost in the anarchy of our feelings, we must assert our humbleness and assume we need the shine of a guiding lighthouse in our emotional odyssey. In case we do not want to blame ourselves for not being lucky, we must endeavor to be imaginative and empower our dreams to take shape. When we are grappling with misery, and our hearts are in knots, we must snap back to a new reality. Let us make choices, refine and consolidate our self-image, and reshape the mold of our identity. If we don't want life to treat us like losers, we must turn 'surviving' into 'living' and readjust our course and propel a precise track pointedly without being deterred by 'fear' or apprehension. When we interpret and transform external events into internal experiences, we can navigate our emotional odyssey, reconstruct our sense of self, and integrate the past into a coherent narrative, making sense of the present and preparing for the future. When we feel out of sync with the priorities of real life and overwhelmed by impossible dreams, we must retrace the essential fragments of our storyline hidden in the shadow of our past. They can guide our further thoughts, actions, and behaviors.
