How do you imagine!!!
2008-04-08 11:25:00 I find the human mind incredible. I have recently paid close attention to how my mind works. For example if I want to dream or imagine I close my eye’s and let my mind do the rest. However when I want to remember something it’s completely different. If I need to picture something that I have seen I actually need to have my eyes open. I actually tried to remember something today. In fact it was a document and I was trying to remember what was on it. To visualise it I needed to have my eye’s open. Once I close my eye’s I had no hope. When I thought about it that’s how I do things all the time. Eye’s open for remembering and eye’s closed for imagining. More About: Imagine
People
2008-04-07 11:44:00 One of the things I notice is how strange the world is. I do believe strongly that people are generally good. Yes everyone is different but generally humans are good people. What I find interesting is human nature. I have been observing people a lot lately, particularly around the office, but not only. One of the things I have found is that people are generally capable of empathy until it conflicts with what they want. Then they seem blind to standing in someone elses shoes. The other thing I find unusual is that very few people can see the big picture in a situation. We are not even just talking about during conflict but even in every day situations. It’s amazing how unless you spend the time to explain the big picture people are blind to it. The third thing I find amazing is when people lie. I just don’t comprehend it. Like why would you want to lie when it’s just not worth it. The enrgy involved in a lie is incredible not to mention the fact that a lie will alwa... More About: People
Does Love Expire?
2008-04-06 12:01:00 Here is a topic I’d like to see some of you comment on. I’ve been chatting with a young friend tonight who questioned me on love. I had asked him if he had net anyone and he said sadly no. But when the subject of love came up he commented that it’s not good because it will inevitably end. That caught me a little by surprise and I felt a little sad. For those of you who know me and know of my past relationship failures, you know that I believe in them even when I fail at them. When single I have a strong belief that I will find love. Now for example that I am in love, yes it’s difficult, exhausting and a lot harder than being single but it’s so worthwhile. The thing is I believe in love more than anything and my past relationship failures are generally because of a lack of commitment to sort things out. But anyway, love to me does not expire. It can, but only if you allow it to. I still love everyone in my life and have never stopped loving anyone. Ok, ... More About: Love

Sometimes
2008-04-02 11:52:00 One of the things I have realised (well actually I’ve always known) is that life is like being in the ocean. You can get in and the water is generally calm and smooth. Then at anytime you can hit by a wave. It’s usually ok when the wave hits. It may throw you a little ... More About: Life , Relationships

Crazy
2008-03-25 22:03:00 Sometimes I honestly think I’m crazy. In fact sometimes I know I am. But over the last little while my confidence has taken a battering. Not due to anything or anyone in particular but simply because of a series of events. Along with the lack of confidence I began to think I was going nuts. ... More About: Relationships , Crazy

Perceptions
