philosphorescence: December 2009

http://philosphorescence.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html

8216;tis the season to be expletive deleted. Christmas can kiss my arse. Yes, this is a rant. I am over it. I just want to go away somewhere and enjoy being happy. By myself. No commitments to anyone else but myself. Why the fuck do we put ourselves through this every single year? This is the most stressful time of the year. Suicides, depression, deaths, misery, divorce, road rage, shopping rage; people generally going psycho. Is it like one final worldly purge of karma for the year? Links to this post.

philosphorescence: October 2010

http://philosphorescence.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html

Day 26: What do you think about your friends? My friends are awesome. Again, resisting the urge to write “The End” here because that’s what I think about my friends – they’re awesome. You. Are. All. Awesome. Instead I’ll tell a story. Once upon a time, a girl – recently adrift in the world of friends (owing to unfortunate incidents already discussed), started forming connections online with people she found interesting and entertaining and inspiring. Links to this post. Day 25: What’s in your bag? On the...

philosphorescence: 30day challenge: 29.

http://philosphorescence.blogspot.com/2010/11/30day-challenge-29.html

Day 29: In this past month what have you learned? Owing to one of the goals I set myself earlier in the month of trying to learn one new thing each day, I’ve learned a lot. Did you know there are 58 Maori tribes? Did you know that copacetic means fine, excellent? Did you know that before the 1670s, clocks only had one hand? Did you know there’s a cylinder in a vault in France which determines how much a kilogram weighs? To borrow a quote from Ice Cube: I can do it put my back into it.

philosphorescence: August 2010

The philosophy of grammar nazis. There’s nothing like seeing someone do something similar to what I have done in the past to teach me important lessons in life. Yet, because I’ve been there myself, I can empathise, and hope that one day they too will see how damaging it becomes. And so, tonight, in a perfect example of contradiction, I find myself outraged at the trivial things other people become outraged about. Like grammar and punctuation. People should be allowed to paint their sentences with whateve...

philosphorescence: the philosophy of friendship

http://philosphorescence.blogspot.com/2011/03/philosophy-of-friendship.html

The philosophy of friendship. It’s only been over the last three of four years that I have had friendships physically dissolve in front of my eyes. Before then friends just drifted away to lead other lives in other places; not ending a friendship, just suspending it due to distance, and then time. No, lately I’ve had friendships die in the arse because damaging situations – irreparable, or so I assume; I’m still not sure. How do you decide whether there’s anything left to hang a friendship on? I don&#821...

philosphorescence: January 2010

http://philosphorescence.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html

Price check on me please. I don’t know what I ever did to cupid to piss him off so much but that little cherub has been kicking my arse for way too long now. Time to stop. Seriously, how much more bad love karma can I have? I really am over being made to feel like a chump, hanging around purely for someone else’s amusement. I belittle myself to put up with that. I sell myself short. I am worth more than that. I’m worth wooing, dammit. A person is worth love. A person is not worth indifference. I’m ...

philosphorescence: 30day challenge: 28.

http://philosphorescence.blogspot.com/2010/11/30day-challenge-28.html

Day 28: You, last year and this year – how have you changed? This is supposed to be another photo post: me last year and this year. NO MORE PHOTOS. Anyway, physically there aren’t enough changes worth banging on about. The biggest change is that I look more worn out, my complexion is duller and my eyes less sparkly. In short, the blush of youth has retreated even further away and I just look consistently ill. Hardly worth mentioning, really. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.

The philosophy of integrity. I wonder if you have to reach a certain age first before you start learning more from the actions of others than what you learn from your own? Is there a point in time where the bulk of our learning switches from “ok, I did that wrong” to, “ok, he’s doing that wrong. Note to self: don’t do that”. Maybe that’s what this ‘older and wiser’ thing I keep hearing about, is about? Dishonesty is not becoming. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile.
