Who tells you to be perfect?
October 11 in the shower, I was struggling with the November theme of the inspirational calendar that I’m publishing. The theme is beautiful but the normal creativity flow for content seemed to be stuck. The fluidity just wasn’t right.
Overthinking this, I suddenly realized that I didn’t have a blog finished yet for the first Sunday of November either. As you might know, I post every first Sunday of the month for a few years now.
In general, I have at least a few half finished stock blogs waiting for the right energy and moment to be finalized. I pick one and finish it off. This time none of these seemed to be suitable right now.
I felt stressed.
It was stunning, because, while being stressed, I realized: Who cares? Do my readers care if I let it slip once? They might notice and regret that there wasn’t any today. Or they even might not notice at all.
It’s me who created this perfect rhythm of monthly posts.
Feeling the stress and seeing this self created loop was an eye-opener.
Do I allow myself to be imperfect and skip it once or maybe twice?
Is it okay to let it slip?
Am I okay being imperfect?
The answer is “yes”, of course!
Anyway, overthinking this was a blog in itself. Do I think it’s perfect? Honestly, most of the others were way better than this one. But considering the title, I decided to publish it, as it’s message is perfect in its own way.
So, here you go this is November’s blog!
When is imperfect already perfect enough for you?

Het meisje in de olifant (🇬🇧 English below)
Een olifant was ze, krachtig, oersterk. Maar ze was ook grijs, lomp, stug en zwaar. Ze had zich laten opsluiten in de dierentuin van de mensenwereld. Dat had ze zelf gedaan. Zorgvuldig had ze met haar slurf telkens een steen gepakt en deze gestapeld, totdat er een hele dikke, oerdegelijke muur ontstond. Stevig was de…

MOVE!
One of my friends is a cyclist. I never understood the fun of cycling. To me cycling is not particularly fun, a bike is a way to transport me from A to B. Last September, when we had some beautiful sunny days, I thought of going for a swim at a local outdoor swimming pool.…
