The World According to Jil

Change is constant.  Our world of solidity is an illusion.  We are all in flux.  That incredible energy you feel in a city is the result of a multitude of human wills (and wont’s) joined in opposing the only constant in the universe…change. 

We are as we are, were and shall be—all at once—they are not the same thing.  To describe ourselves with nouns is insane. No one is a noun.  We are verbs, even if those verbs are of inactivity or negative motion.

What are your verbs?
