Marco Grob + Death + Poop
Yesterday I sent my all-time favourite photographer, Marco Grob an email that started with:
"Long story short, there is strength in vulnerability and we are all going to die."
I also somehow incorporated the highly sophisticated topic of shitting one's pants and managed to make-up a word that doesn't exist. The whole process was a bit terrifying, but was also probably the most important email I sent all month. That remains true, even if I never hear back from Marco.
I have my friend Sahil Dhingra to thank. He introduced me to this TEDx video on why comfort will ruin your life and also included me in his 30-day social experiment called the "MONTH OF DISCOMFORT". We are currently on day 5.
Every step so far has felt super uncomfortable and was met with a ton of resistance by many parts of me.
That said, each step has also been filled with growth. Although it has only been 5 days, I can see myself growing in many aspects of my life, despite how awkward and uncomfortable I am constantly feeling.
Thank you Sahil for being such an unrelenting shit disturbor.
