My life is comfortable,
and it’s easy to sit down in front of the tv in the evening. Sometimes during
the day I even think about the couch. I
may be judging myself, but I think I have completely given in again...
To gravity! (That is not a toast. That is a death sentence.)
It is the force that lets things fall back to the earth. The
perpetual anchor that grounds me. It keeps me in position
while everything around is pushing in. I feel safe in familiar surroundings
because I know I’m protected against the unknown.
The opposite of gravity is motion and discovery: expanding
into new territories, both in the way I think, and in moving my body again. I
have got to fight gravity.
