Should I Stay Or Should I Go / Self-portrait 46

Picking the forbidden fruit
I still regularly do things that I later realise I would give anything to undo. Perhaps this is like the act of Eve in the Garden of Eden, who, by picking the forbidden fruit, claimed her right to independence. This immediately brought with it the responsibility of how to deal with the freedom. Inevitably, the question remains: Should I stay or should I go?

Choice stress
Although in this video the apple is picked and then replaced as if nothing has happened, we know that this is merely wishful thinking. We have no way to go back in time. Our task is to do our personal work in such a way that we don’t have to be burdened by the past, but neither do we close the door to it.
