When life seems a little ordinary - reminisce...

Life Medal :)

Like a sporting activity, even some tough day's have a medal at the end  :)

Some obstacles.............

My medal at the end of it............  

Moral of the story: Bad things always happen in 3's, but then at the end - you get a milkshake - one of the best :)

Read other's stories and understand life....

Your thoughts become your actions, your actions define you, what defines you determines your destiny....
So.. Master your thoughts, which will allow you to master the mind, which will allow you to master your happiness and then you then you will have mastered your destiny........

No one is in an unfortunate position.... we are where we are because we choose to be. Weakness is not a family trait, its a choice. Anyone can overcome anything if we choose to. Our mind controls our outcomes.

You want to be happy? Choose to be.

It's all relative

The Law of Relativity decided to have an affect on my thoughts last night. I guess when I think about it.. what is time really? Is it the literal amount that exists for everybody or is it more the amount it feels like and holds for you individually? If I am losing sleep waiting on a result for an exam for example where I'm counting the days, vs the person who did so well that their mind has gone to other places already in a casual wait for the result. Am I waiting longer for the result than them who is surprised at how quickly it came? Is time only actually in our minds? Or wait, let me rephrase.... is time's length, only how we interpret it according to situations we encounter day to day?

But then I beg to question the law of relativity where when you're doing something you enjoy - the time is shorter than the amount of time spent doing something we don't enjoy. So in theory...... in our minds...... if we're constantly joyous.. we're living shorter 'felt' lives than those going through struggle in life? 

For some people remembering a date a year ago feels like yesterday and for others they can't even remember it, so what's better? And we ask why? I'm asking why dammit!! The reason why it crossed my thoughts is because I understand the emotion of time when I'm not happy, but the moment I am, time doesn't matter or exist...Well not that it doesn't exist - but the literal time converts to relative time... and in a good place, relative time is what I make it to be.. which is shorter than literal time. It makes sense that when we're happy - time doesn't matter, but when we're not - every second counts. To focus on time lengthens it, to forget it - shortens it... So what do we do? Do we, in a good moment - focus on the time so we experience it fully? And in pain, or discomfort do we rather take our mind elsewhere and not watch the clock or count the days - occupy ourselves in other words? It's the only way I can imagine that we'll get it right to remember how long the good times are or were, and to shorten the bad ones in our mind. 

It's all strange... and time..... well it's all relative to the time spent...

And our happiness - we actually control it, by choosing how we'd like to interpret it.. 

It's Heart Day :)

out with the sad, in with the glad

(rhcp) Thanks to you -

Sometimes I feel
Like I don't have a partner
Sometimes I feel
Like my only friend
Is the city I live in
The city of angels
Lonely as I am
Together we cry

I drive on her streets
'Cause she's my companion
I walk through her hills
'Cause she knows who I am
She sees my good deeds
And she kisses me windy
I never worry
Now that is a lie

I don't ever want to feel
Like I did that day
Take me to the place I love
Take me all the way

It's hard to believe
That there's nobody out there
It's hard to believe
That I'm all alone
At least I have her love
The city she loves me
Lonely as I am
Together we cry

I don't ever want to feel
Like I did that day
Take me to the place I love
Take me all that way

Under the bridge downtown
Is where I drew some blood
Under the bridge downtown
I could not get enough
Under the bridge downtown
Forgot about my love
Under the bridge downtown
I gave my life away

Bring the heat
