"Planning for the future is escapism" -Jenny Holzer
This made me realize why i feel the need to constantly change, reinvent myself (and why anyone and everyone is obsessed with the concept of the 'make-over'). Its because:
a) Prevents me from having to deal with the consequences of all my stupid actions (theres plenty)
b) Allows me to blame my faults on the other, older me.
c) It entertains me when bored
And yes, making that change for a better future is a form of escapism.
That Jenny Holzer sure was onto something. I don't know what I'm going to do with this information. I guess with some knowledge you're just meant to put it in a pipe and smoke it.
