Philosophy, life and painful things. Let's go on a journey…….


Life

  • Was this always a tactic?

    Was this always a tactic?

    Ok, so I’m not saying I believe this is going on, but I do wonder, and I do like to speculate. The case is a prominent musical icon who is enjoying a rather purple patch in her career right now. One where it might be almost impossible to avoid her in media. I remember this Continue reading

  • Let’s play conspiracy theorist…

    Let’s play conspiracy theorist…

    I don’t buy this stuff 100%, but like you I suspect there must be some truth in it or it wouldn’t convince so many people to act and to also suspect. In this piece I wish to speculate, I suppose that’s not really doing anything different than I do for the rest of my writing, Continue reading

  • Wrongly aimed sympathy

    Wrongly aimed sympathy

    A farming lad or lass, she grows up in the countryside surrounded by nature, the job is hers for life if she wants it and is willing to work hard, the house to live in is free. Her parents will build a bungalow on the land somewhere, no planning permission required just building regs, and Continue reading

  • The things we are born to do

    The things we are born to do

    We are inspired by all that we read to think about ourselves in both fantastical and critical ways. I often wonder why someone is no good at something that seems easy to me, I’m sure that thought has hit you too at some point where you’re maybe watching another member of your household trying to Continue reading

  • Time – clocks that don’t tick

    Time – clocks that don’t tick

    Is a clock a clock if it does not work? A deliberate intervention prevents the mechanism from having the potential energy to move the hands, the batteries are removed, maybe it is just broken. My pal did this with a nice timepiece, a carriage clock his mother owned that she was bequeathed from an ex Continue reading

  • Our outrageous fortune

    Our outrageous fortune

    The worst person is they that would exploit, make profit from, and wish praise for dealing with, the miseries you and I cannot conquer alone. No evil exists more than that which wishes your sickness to enable it’s remedy, and no person is so depraved that their validation is not gained without the existence of Continue reading

  • You are in my tribe

    You are in my tribe

    Even though all wearable overtly labelled clothing is trying to appeal to you, the buyer, I think there may be an important distinction to be found in the motivation behind the purchase. These are tribal identifiers, no different from the bodily tattoos of a Māori or an Aztec or a modern gang member or motorbike Continue reading

  • Angry all the time

    Angry all the time

    I am an angry man, in my head I may already have killed you and disposed of your corpse… You only have to say the word yawn and I will yawn. If you yawn, I will yawn. If my cat yawns then guess what… I yawn. Apparently that is a sign that sympathy is indeed Continue reading

  • It’s only scary if you think about it

    It’s only scary if you think about it

    The decisions we make in youth are quick, we haven’t the experience to know that they may go badly, so we go boldly. Now, at this age, if I stop and think, I will access a bank of experiential data that will educate my decision to either go for it, or not, likely not. That Continue reading

  • Turn around

    Turn around

    Peter Griffin (character – Family Guy) often says that things grind his gears. I get the same, my reaction to the ridiculous things that are offered to me in conversation and media is that they wind me up, they make me angry. I could wake from a drunken sleep and rhyme you off a bunch… Continue reading
