*Life is like … an omelette or omelet

“You can’t make an omelet without breaking the eggs.” Joseph Campbell

cheesy omelette

Why do we expect that we can transform our lives without any challenges? …

Why do we think something is wrong when we find ourselves in one of the lows of life? …

In order to transform you need to break some eggs.

Have you broken any eggs recently?

Good.

Now start on your omelette!

Mine is a cheesy one 😉

  3. WOW did I need this one! “Why do we think something is wrong when we find ourselves in one of the lows of life? …” It’s so damn true! Sometimes I forget, though, and beat (egg joke, ah yolk??) myself up about feeling low.

    Thanks for this one, very much 🙂

    Peace, always,
