Up-Side-Down-Boxes



Imagine a box for storing stuff. Potatoes, coins, emtpy cans or just the falling rain.
Sometimes one decides to turn the box up-side-down to stop the box being filled without intention.
I think we have some mental boxes for collecting moments. You can just use the blue box for collecting lucky moments. All you have to do is to place it in the right corner of your mind. You’ll forget about it within minutes but if you come back to the box after a few days I’m pretty sure that you’ll find the memories of some happy moments in it.
Well, stupidly the ugly moments tend to gather in those boxes, too. Far too often this leads me to turn my box up-side-down. I’m safe from bad thoughts then but I also miss the good ones. I’ll try to take the risk more often and place the blue box out in the open field to catch as much as possible.
