Delinquency spoiled everything

If a man looks at a woman, everybody should agree that he feels attraction to her.

That should be the way, but it isn't. Woman's first thought is "Is he a thief?" And she could be right. A gracious problem could be: What does the man really want to steal? Her heart or her money? :-D ... This should be a pleasant activity, not a frightening one.

Delinquency made hitchhiking more difficult for people who want to do it for fun or need.

I understand there are people living because of delinquency, but that is a wrong system and it must be changed.

Are you concerned about losing your incomes because of stopping it? Remember: everything in life gets readjusted when change happens. Inside change, new opportunities and businesses are hidden, but please, don't choose delinquency!!

Who starts? Who enters? Love or sex?

A relation starts with Love, and then Sex enters to the game.
or it starts with Sex, and then Love enters to the game.

It is inevitable. We are humans. We have feelings and our body has reactions. These two things move us to seek this sensual contact. But the problem is that Sex is not enough to satisfy Love, and vice versa.

Some writings say Control is needed to keep us from seeking Sex only. But nowadays it is hard to get an image of a couple who lives together until both die, without knowing how intense sexual attraction is. This is another Utopian thought that must be removed from our current level of development.

Love and Sex are two different needs, but some people (specially women) tend to tie them together.

Hierarchy of women

I find that is easy to have a talk with a woman if you go towards a defined hierarchy to reach her attention:

- Talk to people she respects (parents or tutors).
- Talk to people she will listen (work or class mates).
- Talk to her friends first.

It feels like Token+Grammar programming, like Government, like Army, like the theory of filters in the universe... A message will pass through people which filters it, and then answer is filtered back to you!

This excess of beings between you and she is annoying, but is good path, because they may help you to convince her, although they may have their price...

Although I don't like to use intermediaries, I can't deny this path makes it more probable to have a contact, and is less painful to receive a NO in this process than to receive it directly from her. :-(

Symphony or Trance?

Some months ago, I started to perceive something about the type of songs I like, specially songs without lyrics. In my case, I feel some songs try to transmit feelings of Struggle, Sadness, and a never-ending action to improve your actual situation in life. I feel this because I find inside some songs a mix of sad and happy phases, as well as an ending phase on which there are elements related to one those first parts. Even more, I perceive this quality not only belongs to classical music, but modern music as well. I will bring some contrasting examples on which I feel this equilibrium between happy and sad tunes:

David Wise - Stickerbrush Symphony - Donkey Kong Country 2
(Michiko Naruke) Bramble Blast - Smash Bros. Brawl

Claude Debussy - Clair de Lune (I really like his piano skills)
Basshunter - En Porrig Sommar (Great song, but bad title)

Beethoven Vs. ATB.

When I knew that 'Donkey Kong Country Returns' was in development, in 2010-06-18 09:00 GTM -4, I was marveled when I thought about how the song was arranged. The first part seems like a crying phase, the next part looks like resolution-building phase, and all the next sounds are the long party phase.

Also, "Louie Devito - Take your time", has a similar structure. I think there are plenty of songs with contrasting themes. Maybe my taste is rare. :-\

Insomnia Dreams

"The Dream is not what you see in sleep; Dream is the thing which doesn't let you sleep."
-Dr. APJ. Abdul Kalam-
(Found in codingforums.com, used by abduraooft)

Really true. I really need many of these insomnia dreams. I recall when I knew what cartoons where, then movies..., then video games, then woman attraction ... , then programming ... I had insomnia the first time I met with each one of things I have previously mentioned, but sometimes I wish I can control the way I feel about things I like.

Some people say we should sleep only four hours a day, but is hard for me to keep up with it. Also, I hate when I do something because there is someone (parents) or something (homework) pushing me. I would like to bring my insomnia naturally, just like those "first time" moments...

When I think about it, it is the free sample that God gives you, in order to get you addicted to seek Happiness, just like some people get addicted to Drugs.

Dancing inside the storm? Pain is the fault

Don't fear the storm. Dance in the rain.

If sky drops lemons, make lemonade.

From imdb:
Green Goblin:
Spider-Man. This is why only fools are heroes - because you never know when some lunatic will come along with a sadistic choice. Let die the woman you love... or suffer the little children? Make your choice, Spider-Man, and see how a hero is rewarded!

- I always try to do my best, and obstacles keep appearing again and again. Is it my fault if I fail because of them? What if I am risking my life too much for that silly goal? If my life is not that important, why is so painful to lose it? I know its value, so I should be relieved from pain...
- But pain is the greatest alert you have, because it is very private and it brings too much of your attention to that painful event.
- Ok. Pain and Torture are similar. But would be possible for me to temporally turn that useful system off or in stand by, until that dreadful event passes by? When I got an injury, the greatest source of pain are its creation, and cure methods. Between those moments, there is no pain. Sometimes you injure yourself even without noticing it (like the little cuts you get when you run in shorts inside a reedbed) How could I do this? Drugs?

About martir stories

Lelouch, John F. Kennedy, Darth Vader, Jesus, ... All of their stories goes around the motivation to try to save or fix a country, planet or universe. Even though their motives were full of rightness, somewhat, their means to achieve those goals were not seen good enough for some people. That opposite point of view became hate towards them.

That gives us a nice constant: Anytime you try to do what you think is the best thing, there always will be someone or something that will oppose you. ALWAYS. FOREVER. Sooner or later, it will always appear. It is so sad to get opposition, isn't it?

The only sad way to counter it is to keep going until that dreadful moment in which that opposition becomes great enough to destroy you.

Of course, you can stop what you are trying to do, and try to excel in another area, but then, it will appear again...

Miracles #1

There was a moment in One Piece in which I only knew that Monkey D. Luffy will live because I knew the chapter I was looking at was not the last one of the story. Even in that moment, he affirms that he got wasted! But then, some "miracle" appeared.

This moved me, and now I believe why: It is because there were moments in my life when I accepted my loss, and then an opportunity for me to make a little more progress appeared "miraculously".

When I think deep about One Piece, I believe the author is trying to say we should live like "Living la vida loca". Well, if not, at least he is clearly saying that we need to change some convictions about our way of living if we want to achieve a specific kind of progress in our life.

Only Power moves people?

This is a thought inspired on One Piece.

Right before the execution of Gold Roger, instead of saying "All Hail Piracy", somebody asked him "Where did you put all the money you found?", and this motivates to answer this: "Do you want everything I got? Then go there. I left everything there!"

Wow! this phrase alone made more people to become pirates, than a silly praise about piracy. It seems people need a goal, a clear benefit for them to be willing to move to the right direction, or to the direction that Someone Very Famous And Powerful wants to.

Well, to live our life seems to be a Great Motivation by itself alone. What do you think? I think it is not enough!

No easy path

I extracted this dialog from One Piece, after that meaningful Monkey D. Luffy Vs. Laboon fight, and before leaving that place.

- There is no a defined route! It is possible that you get lost and need to come back here!
- No problem. Then I will return and take another route.

What?! How simple and easy does he takes things! Don't you think this way of thinking looks crazy? Well, after many struggles in my life, I have come to a conclusion: There is no easy route! If there is one, then it is too risky (like being rich with drugs or robbery). If you take it easy from the beginning, then you will lose courage when it starts getting difficult (like when you meet Calculus, Derivations and Integrations in your studies).

Remember: an easy and simple path is not always that easy or simple.
