Senses of balance
2008-05-19 21:23:00 There are numerous reasons why challenging yourself is fun. For one, there is the part where you may achieve something you didn’t know you were able to. That usually comes as a pleasant surprise, which itself is good for your own self-esteem. Another thing is the knowledge new experiences come packed with. The better you ... More About: Balance
Thou shallow mind
2008-05-14 21:23:00 As your mind wanders, you may find yourself thinking about this one thing that’s never lazy. This one process that keeps on going till the end of your time. It’s the thought that never stops. It changes its face everywhere you look. Every different influence changes its way. Even when your body is sleeping, some ... More About: Mind
Bending times
2008-05-09 19:05:00 “Inmitten der Schwierigkeit liegt die Möglichkeit” - Albert Einstein So, I’ve been climbing again, after months of waiting for some shoulder to get itself together. And there it was: sweet painful reality. Even now, two days later I can feel every muscle mourning about the old lazy times. But it won’t help a thing. As it’s ... More About: Times
Mondays for sale
2008-05-05 23:21:00 “Das Lebn is wia a Guglhupf. Aussen knusprig, dann schön weich, aber in der Mittn is trotzdem nix!” Arbeitstage deren Anfang eine Qual darstellen und deren Ende im Aufgeben bestehen, sind wie harte Walnüsse deren Inhalt bereits vor Jahren die Farbe verlor. Zugegeben, Anspruch ist wichtig, aber auf die Dummheit der anderen Rücksicht nehmen zu müssen, ... More About: For Sale , Sale , Mondays
Life is change
2008-05-02 23:03:00 “wos irgendwer denkt is ma irgendwie wurscht” Information: Due to current decisions I’m going to change the way I write. From now on, I’ll write less philosopical, more based on actual and current events and hopefully more often. The posts will stay short, maybe some pictures will complement these thought-snips. This will reduce the time needed for ... More About: Life , Change
This is the end
2008-04-27 22:22:00 It hurts to set you free But you’ll never follow me The end of laughter and soft lies The end of nights we tried to die
Colourless - Story Part II
2008-04-02 21:51:00 Pictures flashed in front of me. I had seen this face before. His face. These frightful but fascinating eyes seemed like there was no life beyond their long lost colours. Empty and without any expression they gazed at mine. The only fear I could have found in the reflexions within his eyes. Reality faded. I ... More About: Story , Part
Colourless - Story Part I
2008-03-21 20:24:00 Time froze. Her facial expression got tense. So did every muscle in her body. As she held her breath her heart seemed to beat as fast as it could. It appeared to be the only part in this world ignoring the stop. The place filled with a deadly silence. Nighttime put everything into a black ... More About: Story , Part
How to solve problem-free situations
2008-03-19 20:42:00 As you may have realised about 50 postings later, these texts are not about real problems. Most of these statements are meant to help to concentrate on our own greatest fault: the imaginary creation of problems where there are none. They are thought to show, quite plainly and maybe in an a bit exaggerated way, ... More About: New York , Free , Problem
How to cry over spilled milk
2008-03-17 09:14:00 If your problem is to be understood metaphorical the answer might be: don’t cry - someone else will, probably nine month later. But that’s not what I meant. A typical reaction is to blame someone else. Especially, when others are around. Typically, it’s even someone you believe in. Your god, parents, siblings or your companion. ... More About: Milk
How to run on caffeine
2008-03-12 08:33:00 Every movement freezes in your mind. Actions become series of pictures. You feel widely awake and at the same time completely numb to direct influences on yourself. The drugs produced by your body are floating your blood circulation. When you think, time stops. Your heart pumps like it tries to drown out your breaths. All ...
How to clear your mind
2008-03-06 08:06:00 Everybody has a mind of their own. And that is true in every sense of these words. Previous posts show that this makes for example the subject of communication a little - well, rather much more complex. Other influences are on possible ways to find your focus and concentration for specific actions. Some do sports, ... More About: Mind , Clear
How to be objective
2008-02-28 19:16:00 Normally, I’d like to say that there are always two ways: the friendly one and the honest one. Nonetheless, when it comes to be factually there seems to be not so much of a choice. In the sense of communication objectivity can only be achieved by knowing how both, transmitter and receiver, are going to ...
How to choose your religion
2008-02-22 17:02:00 Which denomination is best? Which community offers most? The ones that promise salvation after you die or the ones giving absolution to you for a specific amount of money during your lifetime? It’s a serious question. What do you want to face after your life ends? Maybe you want to look forward to 27 virgins ... More About: Religion , Choose
How to live by the banana
2008-02-19 19:16:00 Life is like this yellow curved fruit. You can put it in a plastic bag and within a week the only thing you can do is to throw it away. But that’s not all. Dip it in coffee and you got a vitamin and caffeine stick with an slight weird taste. Alright, what I really ... More About: Banana , Live
Thinking witty
2008-02-13 20:24:00 Are you quick at repartee? How do you respond to someone asking “What’s up loser”? Is that where you draw your punchline? Some might say that it doesn’t matter what other potential mentally less gifted individuals loose orally. Besides their filthy slobber. And they’re right. It doesn’t change their way along the gutter. Nevertheless, it ... More About: Witty , Thinking
Thinking timeless
2008-02-11 20:33:00 A recent article about time stated that time as such may be only an illusion. It has to do with its importance in quantum mechanics and its conformity to the general relativity. Well, lots of science can make the head go round. At the moment, I don’t care much about quantum mechanics. But I care, ... More About: Timeless , Thinking
Thinking without borders
2008-02-07 20:15:00 Every time we don’t take a risk, we lose almost automatically. With the refusal of chances we hinder ourselves in our own further development. Security is one of the greatest enemies of evolution. This would fully support various trial and error methods. And it’s a good thing. Most times, there is more to gain than ...

Thinking about motivation
2008-01-30 20:06:00 When you’re even thinking about things you could do before you have to check for emails, you’re really in trouble. Procrastination is not only the thief of time. Furthermore, these little distractions you’re looking for are like stones in your shoes when you’re trying to walk over water. Actually, let me rephrase: if you’re already ...

Thinking in statistical evaluations
2008-01-28 20:42:00 How do you work? If you’d know a bit of Neuroscience you could probably tell me how neurons connect via synapses to each other within our brains and let us feel, memorise and react. One feature that often strikes me in contrast to computers, networks and artificial intelligence is that there is no difference between ... More About: Thinking
Thinking and drinking
2008-01-22 20:15:00 Ours is a society that has grown itself more belly than beard. Unable to look down on our offspring we grab our next bottle in the misbelief of ignoring as solution to our problems. Laziness and wealth are the reasons leading us into a deep depression and the standstill in our life. It has become ... More About: Drinking , Thinking
Thinking of loosing
2008-01-20 20:42:00 One of the most interesting feelings in our life might be the ‘let go’ feeling. It’s the one you might sense when you’re on a train, travelling against the sun and leaving your home. It’s also there when you’re saying goodbye at the grave of a loved one and finally realise that the end of ... More About: Thinking
You don?t fool me
2008-01-18 19:52:00 On certain things in life we have absolutely no influence whatsoever. People die everyday and most of us may not be the cause for that ..I hope ..well, at least I’m not the one pushing cigarettes into your mouth. No discussion about the hard-fought vitamin sticks here - that’s not what I meant. There are ... More About: Fool
You are stuck in this world
2008-01-15 19:25:00 Do you know this feeling, when you tell someone you trust about something and exactly that something is used against you later? It’s like giving someone your appendix cause it hurts, and being hung by it afterwards. You get the point. The problem is, usually we have a lot of troubles and one hell of ... More About: World
You and your ego
2008-01-06 19:16:00 As time goes by so do our beliefs. Things change even at the single second we look at them. Therefore it’s hard to keep your trust in specific processes or life itself. Of course, that doesn’t mean we have to suffer from our own inability for finding valid beliefs. It just means that we have ...
You don?t make sense
2007-12-26 21:41:00 Have you ever been speechless? Most people are from time to time. There is probably no need to worry about. Sometimes it’s just the numbness of the aftereffects of alcohol or sleeplessness. Or maybe it’s just some small surprise life often offers in the most unexpected situations. There is a saying ‘firstly it comes different ... More About: Sense , James Blunt , Make
You deserve to forget
2007-12-21 02:14:00 Nowadays, TV series show us one thing: knowledge is the key to success. If it’s House MD to demonstrate others their deficiencies by being himself almost infallible, or Shawn Spencer whose remarkable memory abilities give him an unnatural psychic impression, or even Dexter Morgan who uses his intelligence to commit murder for some kind of ...

You got one of a sentence
2007-12-19 06:26:00 Inevitable a mass is condemned to disintegrate into sparks of matter daring the insubstantiality of nothing but space, only to search for refuge at its own kind to build up new patterns of something else, and thus trying to satisfy its need for being special whereas the specification that would make it special is the ...

You can?t be someone else
2007-12-17 07:00:00 The modern Internet offers us much more than communication. It’s the imagination of being able to be anyone you’d like to be. Chat rooms or worlds like Second Life try to make us believe that we can be anyone. Why does one even want to be different? And if you don’t manage to be like ... More About: Some
