every day I fall more and more in love with the word "complexity" because no one person can fit into 1 word, or 1 feeling, or 1 category, or 1 box. I hope we can all continue finding belongingness in complexity and ambiguity.
Very British Problems when having a haircut
1 Insisting the temperature is "fine" as what must be water from a kettle is
poured over your head.
2 Never feeling more tense than when fighting against the pleasant feeling of
the head massage.
3 Showing a photo of you when you were 10 years younger and three stone
lighter and asking, "Can you make me look like this, please?"
4 Accepting a complimentary drink as if you've just been offered £500 in
cash.
5 Being gripped by the sadness of having to assess your own face for ages in the hairdresser's mirror.
6 Rearranging your hands and accidentally looking like you're doing
something devious under the cape.
7 Being thrilled at seeing the back of your head for the first time since your
last haircut.
8 Feeling consumed by guilt as you're encouraged to stand up and cover the
clean floor with bits of hair.
9 Being mystified as to how "what have you done?" somehow leaves your
mouth as "excellent, thank you very much!"
10 Waiting until you're at least 50 strides away from the building until you
completely restyle your head in a coffee-shop window.

This shot is driving me insane cause like the proudness i have to see Jamie finally be called up after all of those hard years of work but also the fact that he chosed Sam's number to honour him and the 9 being subbed for the 24?! CINEMATIC AND STORYTELLING MASTERPIECE!
the paradox is that present you will always feel like the most useless version of you.
the solution is that present you has more experience than past you, and more young hope than future you.
the solution is that you are right where you need to be.
everything you've ever done was done by a younger, more hopeful you who you no longer are.
everything you aspire to do needs to be done by an older, more experienced you who you aren't yet.
the paradox is that you will feel this way at every point in your entire life.
