Table #1
Sat down with someone visiting her friend from Mexico City. This used to be her neighborhood, and she's remembering what its like to have to walk everywhere again.
The Café Table

W:

How would you describe this chapter of your life, and what do you think that it's teaching you?

I am in a very interesting chapter. Every direction that I was thought to follow, I am doing the opposite, and everything that everyone that has ever said “you cant,” I am going to try it anyways. And if someone says you can't, I am asking “why?” I am in that chapter where I am a rebel, I guess.

It's like I am a teenager but very ‘adult,’ making these decisions. I just realized that, that is a way of being free. As a woman, there is often emancipation of whatever; society, relationships we have, is a thing constantly. And yeah, that's what the chapter of ‘going in every other direction’ is teaching me.

W:

How does it make you feel now that you’ve made that shift?

Free.

W:

Do you want to tell me more about what you’re doing?

Just breaking structures; like monogamy. In my 10 year monogamous relationship, and now its different. Professionally, I have been following an objective of success. I was following that and now im thinking maybe the job isn’t that important. Its just a way of getting to enjoy what really matters in life, which is life itself.

W:

Is there anything else you want to share?

That the future is just this present moment. The future doesn’t exist really, its just this present moment.
