The Gremlin Reloaded:
GREMLIN TURNS ONE
Happy birthday to us. Happy birthday to ussss. Happy birthday to thegremlinsquadddddddd. Happy birthday to us.
One year ago…
One year ago, The Gremlins looked more like a “show and tell” of my work. About halfway through the year, things changed and The Gremlins became a way to communicate the lessons I am learning. This seems to be the theme of my life right now - To 'Evolve Out Loud' and share the evolution because there is no shame in changing. I like this way of looking at life because it's fun, surprising and much more helpful to other Gremlins.
One year ago, I was reluctant to start The Gremlins because I thought
A) I didn’t have the time and
B) I thought I had nothing to say
I thought that the things I was learning and my weekly experiences were so obvious it was bordering on pretentious to share. And then, I realised; the more I share, the more wacky life gets, and the more wacky life gets, the more I want to share. And so, up and up, this fun dance is taking me down and down the stream.
One year on…
I didn't start the Gremlins, thinking I would enjoy it. I started this newsletter because someone I respected ‘told me to’, and soon enough, I realised that I enjoy the process of writing. (Emphasis on process).
One year on and 52 Gremlins later, here's what I want to share.
I like that I get to connect to the Gremlins and that the Gremlins are becoming a thing.
The Gremlins have never been about me but the path of creative empowerment. I only write through my lens to use my perspective of experience rather than speculating or spouting Chinese whispers of wisdom.
I want to share. I want to share what I learn because I like seeing the Gremlins rise into creative freedom. And I enjoy sharing the inner trials/resources because I didn't have access to them growing up, so part of me doesn't want others to do the same thing.
And one year from now?
I don't know where the Gremlins will take me, and this next year will no doubt look completely different. Just two nights ago, a track I made was being played at a club, and that was something never on my radar before, but now I'm excited about it.
That's to say, I don't know what's coming, but I see a similar pattern of walking onto a new edge in a lot of Gremlins. This tells me we are at stages of transformation and alignment.
I don’t know what’s coming, but I can catch a scent of it, and I'm ready.
All the love
