The Post before 40

Someone has advised me recently to go back to writing, so here it is.

The changes that took place on yours truly on the recent years, have basically made me less poetic, with less patience for digging into the literature of everything and everyone passing through the story of my life.

Some of the gained abilities - while surely walking towards 40 - actually cancel out many of the 20s and early 30s assured wisdoms that I thought I have gained. The only thing I haven't lost I think is the ability to express in clear words how things are, or how I feel. I also haven't lost the ability to avoid confrontation, but I think I have had better successes recently than before.

The only thing that stays as stable as Time itself, is the fact that I am my only best friend, no matter how many people surround me, no matter how much I feel for / or against them, no one gains access, no one can predict what I'm able to do, and very few people are able to read me.

The more the deeds that defy the belief system, the more the depth, and complexity.

 In 2 or so weeks 39 will be the number, and oh boy there's so much I've learned, not just about life in general, but also about myself. I surprised myself a lot, but what I hate the most is the lack of compassion and empathy that I now have towards human life in general, but at the same time, a super-human ability to participate into human activity, be part of it, and being asked over and over to participate again.

What do you see in me, I have no idea..

In general realizing your strengths require you to keep listening to your surroundings, from ALL different types of people you see and deal with everyday. Knowing how people see you, KNOWING that, will determine how things go for you/or against you, as you fight your way through this limited temporary imperfect life, inhabiting this biological life-form that is called homo-sapien.

The biggest walkaways from the past 39 years are along those lines: 

  • We know so little in the big scheme of life, we should not try to understand it, or try to find problems with it and solve it.
  • We as humans are so proud, yet so small and ignorant. No one knows everything, and whoever thinks they do are the definition of stupid.
  • The big questions of who we are and what we're doing here will never be answered with certainty while still breathing oxygen. Maybe when your lungs are filled with maggots you could get some answers.
  • We live on a thin shallow surface of a planet that looks like a ball, most of the creatures on that surface imitate how shallow that thin crust is.
  • Curiosity is the most dangerous time-bomb in human nature. It can lead to breakthroughs and the evolution of the race to the next level, and it can end your life as well. Be careful with it.
  • Values and principles don't change, people who try to apply them do, and almost always take them down into a pool of shit, sugarcoat them, and try to feed them to the masses.
  • Preaching something and doing something else - AKA Hypocrisy - is mostly a psychological disease, and some sort of a drug at the same time. Abusers take a hit, then search for the next one.
  • Doing a good deed and doing an instagram video of the emotions involved is bullshit. You do a good deed and you try to hide it, because you WANT to do it, not want to show other people that you did it. Yeah you could say it is motivating people to do good deeds, but feeding on the emotions and tears of people to get views is sadistic and you're a piece of shit for doing it.
  • Nobody's perfect, accept people as they are, unless you can't live with their flaws, then you choose others. If you can't choose then focus on the good, and be the better person. Even if you're not patient all the time, forgive yourself.
  • Humans make mistakes, that's the main attribute of Flesh and Blood. Forgiving yourself will make you a better person always. Hating yourself will start a spiral downward motion that will feed on all the good parts of you, till you're left with suicide.
  • Those who have the power of the love of others, are a weapon of mass destruction, mass goodness, or just wasted talent.
Enough for now, sorry for the avalanche of words.

In any case, I'm just talking to myself.

Love to Young Adorable Roaming Angel, no matter where it roams, and what it says.

Profound Sanity

Dreams, are nowadays randomly filled with random people, like my brain is being shuffled constantly in order for the most important things to settle in the bottom, and the less important to come on top, then the less important, and so forth, till i find the heavy rocks in the bottom, the things that are closest to my heart, and those might include the people who are closest to my heart and my attempts to make them happy, and furthermore try to understand them more, for not to fall in the mistake of trying to make them happy the way I want them to be happy, but rather the way THEY want to feel happy.. And then again, it is clear that life is just about the pursuit of happiness, because happiness can be found in various ways, and loads and loads of forms, but what is more important is only realized by the minority of people, and it can rarely be controlled by the individual, it is a blessing from God that is. As people try all the time to follow what their instinct tells them to achiev

Loving Fear

A small window of a certain sensation followed by a quick view upon an idea, and then a broad metallic armor of assurance has crossed my chest. What happened was the occurrence of Fear. For several days there was this fear taking over, causing my skin to shiver, and my hair to stand every now and then. Fear is the opposite of being happy and that's just the beginning. Fear is essential for the human life, but an overdose could be utterly devastating. I was actually somewhere else when the sensation crossed my body starting from my eyes and ending at my heart. I was driving on the messy highway under a cloudy sky at evening time. A colleague of mine was in the passenger's seat, sleeping, while I was trying my best to stay alert and evade the acrobatics being made by trucks and micro-buses all around me, causing the highway to be something really close to a flea circus, but that's not our issue now. The clouds were all above me, but the horizon was cloud-free. There was a chi

Otopeni

I pause, after being exposed to somewhat of an exhilarating experience, that one as say is totally away from what I've been into all of my life. One could say that it's no big deal that someone from a third world country has traveled and seen what the real civilized world is all about, but - as I have expected - for me it is a little different. Maybe because I tend to observe too much, absorb too much, and try to come up with conclusions and a section where I can put "What I've learned" from this, that or whatever experience I've been through. Well, it is widely known that traveling around the globe makes you different, one way or the other. Adds to you a lot, and submerges other parts of you underneath. I'm not gonna talk about what I've learned nor banter about the various things I've seen through my very brief journey that could not be compared to other people's experiences on traveling, because generally there are people who travel all the
