Silje Torp Instagram – Just came across this from a cover shoot I did for @taramagasin a few years ago. Taken before Covid, Ukraine, energy crisis and a whole lot of other issues in my personal life, big or small.
These were the happy days, huh; before all of that happened….or were they? Really?
It strikes me that I was just as happy- or unhappy then, as now. We are by evolution programmed to search for possible problems and obstacles in order to survive. So it is a constant struggle to redirect our mind to look for the positive, bright outcome of things.
Life was somehow just as hard then, as now, only…different?
And even if it’s not necessarily true objectively, the only place from where we can experience life is through our subjective reality.
My point must be that whatever we focus on, we give power and energy. It is a never ending battle- or opportunity- to choose optimism and hope over pessimism and doubt.
We all live within the frame of our subjective life experience. It can be a curse- or a blessing.

Close your eyes and ask yourself this:
CAN I ALLOW MYSELF TO BE HAPPY- RIGHT NOW – THIS VERY MOMENT? 😌
THIS is the true challenge we face every day of our lives, no matter the circumstances.
Much love❤️
