Worries

Why worry about the past? You can't change it.

Why worry about the future? It hasn't happened yet.

Why worry about the present? It's already happening, and you can change it.

Language doors

Languages are keys opening doors to new worlds.

The more languages you know, the more doors you can open.

Arguments

Arguing adds depth to any relationship. 

You can't call yourselves friends unless you've argued at least once.

Radio

Human body is a radio receiver. It's just an instrument for transmitting the spirit. 

When a radio dies, you don't say that the station signal is dead.

When a person's brain or body dies, why do you say the person is dead?

Good or bad?

A bad actor complains about his role.

A good actor takes any role that's given to him.

Famous people in everyday life

When reading books, I often think, 'Wish I could meet the author in real life! I'd understand their soul perfectly'. 

Would I?

My nasty neighbor could be another Picasso. The blonde at the boutique could be Anna Akhmatova in her early years. The eccentric university professor could make a new Einstein.

Many problems seem justifiable and understandable when I read them in a book, in first person, and I can add my imagination to the author's personality. 

They are much harder to understand when encountering them in real life, with real people, third person. Real life sinks all illusions.


School friends

True school friends for life are rare. 

Schools mix children from different worlds, with different interests, backgrounds and paths. Most of them are bound to go separate ways after finishing school.

Schools could group children by interest/vocation rather than age/location.

Old things and new things

Time and space are limited in human life.

I must get rid of old things in order to clear some space for new ones.

Only when there's some free space and time, the new things will come into my life.

Other people's influence

Can other people ruin your life?

Rarely.

Almost everything that happens to you is with your permission. If other people influence your life, then it's your decision to allow them to.

There are exceptions, of course, but they're more rare than you think.

Your life is your responsibility. If you allow other people to learn by making bad decisions in your life, it's your choice. But in the end, your life is your own responsibility.

The book of the Universe


We are all children in front of the book of the Universe. 

Some of us prefer playing with their toys, ignoring the book.

Some of us can't read, but love looking through the pictures.

Some of us can read the words.

Some of us can understand what the book is about.

But the book is always there, for everyone to see. It isn't hidden or occult in any way. It constantly offers itself to everyone without limitation.

Common reality

For two people to be together, they must share a common piece of reality. 

The closer the relationship, the broader and vaster is the common reality.

Once the realities of two people stop intersecting, the people separate.

The easiest or the most difficult

The most difficult things to do are simple things you need to do on a daily basis.

But once I tie them up to the routines I already do, they become the easiest things to do.

Tolerance and intolerance

Tolerance is great, but my world needs selection. 

What if I get too strict and cut everyone out? 

What if I get too tolerant and let everyone in?

Why learn a lot?

1. The more you know, the easier it is for you to learn.

2. The more you know, the more options are open to you in life.

3. The more you know, the more tolerant and understanding you become - or at least you're supposed to. :))

Building my world pt 3 - Finding the courage

I must find the courage to be myself in the world of stereotypes.

Stereotypes are dangerous, because they oversimplify and overequalize. 

Getting off the beaten track is challenging, but also rewarding, and it brings the Universe the most value.

Pain of death

Having pets means experiencing their life and death.

- Value the limited time
- Learn to get over pain
- Give your best shot first, always!
- Value every moment, good and bad

When your pet is gone, there's no need to watch your step, close the doors carefully, clean the cage or toilet, or do any of the dozens of little annoying things you used to do. 

But then you think, 'I'd rather do those things again. Please, don't go...'.

Winter train

For those who are fascinated by trains. :)
