#876 Faded Daydreams...


Over the years, I have always wondered how life would be without the massive technological inventions of today. Perhaps everyone wonders the same thing.  

 Our everyday life has changed immensely due to the advent of technology. It has become faster, dynamic and more comfortable. I think many of you would agree that we are relying upon our smartphones and tablets as our sole mean of communication with the rest of the world.  

We rely on a push of a button to run our washing machines without handwashing, we rely on our stoves, microwaves without using a good ole campfire. We rely on our water heater to keep our water warm..  

My life would be very different without technology. I am pretty sure I would go insane, because I cannot survive without technology.

#621 If a man has not discovered something that he will die for, he isn’t fit to live.... 'Stand for Peace'




I was reading an article the other day in the Time Magazine and wanted to share the below with you. It is basically what we all are thinking when it comes to ‘Standing for Peace’.

“The moment someone punches you in the face might seem like a strange time to figure out your philosophy. But in fact, being threatened or hurt is an opportunity to re-examine what you are made of”. As the Paris attacks reinforced, we face a foe who has no doubt about what they believe, or how committed they are to that belief. ISIS is a fanatically devoted cult. To counter such a challenge with pusillanimity is to court disaster. It is urgent for the Western world to ask itself anew—what do we believe? Why except this behavior.

Confronting the dangerous ideological foes of the past—Soviet communism or Nazism—the West was clear and firm in its counter-narrative. We have to be just as clear today. We ask Americans, Australian’s, Europeans and so on to fight and die for the ideals of this nation, and one of the ways we honour that sacrifice is to clarify for ourselves and for the world what those ideals are. An unarmed side loses even in a battle of ideas. Primary among the beliefs that are a pillar of our Western monotheistic heritage is that every human being is in the image of God. Our declaration of Independence secularized this into every individual having the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. You need not believe in God to agree that the first ideal for which we fight is the dignity and worth of every individual, regardless of the envelope of life circumstances that surround them. The second ideal is freedom. Freedom means more than “you don’t get to tell me what to do.” Real freedom presupposes a society that both removes obstacles and provides avenues to human flourishing. A group that dictates religion, dress, intellectual inquiry and artistic expression is not only violating freedom in a negative sense—”you may not do this”—but in a positive sense—”I will not provide ways for you to educate yourself in this field.” Freedom is not only the right to close your door, but the chance to open your business or write your book, or blog in this case.

The third ideal is the solidarity of free people. The spontaneous declarations of unity with France express the sense we have of being in this together. Not because we were both attacked, but because we stand for the same things. The solidarity of freedom will ultimately prove more robust than the uniformity of servitude. Dignity, liberty and the alliance of those who choose their lives—these are the underlying ideals with which we confront the enemies of civilization.

Rev. Martin Luther King said: “If a man has not discovered something that he will die for, he isn’t fit to live.” In a struggle against evil, we have to cherish the sacrifices made for the ideals of goodness. We draw on the roots of our traditions for the fruits of our freedoms—the dignity of people, the solidarity of the free, the hope that one day the whole world will come to see those blessings not as a gift, but as a universal human right”.

#611 Nearly forgot my broken heart, it's time to remember what we have..


I was listening to a song the other day aka (name of title) and the singer when creating the song was asking himself “What happens when someone suddenly realises that they’re moving on with their lives? Whether they had a bad experience, or got fired, or are suffering with their self-esteem, or got dumped – whatever it is – feeling like life is going to be dark forever, and then you realise one day, it is not going to be that bad after all.

We are all in an age of wanting reassurance, wanting things right now, as he calls it “a weird age where there’s more and more immediate distraction and we’re all getting used to it,” “The distraction is just absurd – watching a YouTube video of a guy falling off a skateboard, this kind of crap! 

Our eyes are just sort of buried into our smart phones now, so I think we’re going through a period of getting further and further away from recognising what we have, appreciating life for what it is, giving thanks for all the awesome moments in your life whether good or bad, but appreciating all “that the crazy planet can provide and all these amazing things.”

As they say in the advertisements... it is remembering to look up once in a while. 
Appreciate what you have right beside you....<3

#592 For there is nothing lost that may be found if sought...




We have all heard this story in one fashion or another.  For you guys you can tune out if you wish this time. In the beginning, she falls in love with someone who seems to be the end-all. He sweeps her off of her feet; he turns her world upside down and seems like the perfect man. He nearly is, but not quite. He breaks her heart, shatters it into a million pieces. She is overcome with distraught; she can barely breathe when she thinks of all that she gave and all he gave back. She then thinks her life will never go on, how can she live any longer and drowns in her sorrow.


Just when you think that she cannot cope, she gasps for air, breaths again, and the heart begins to heal. Her life goes on.  I think we have all experienced this in some type of version first hand and truly believe that time itself heals all wounds. You just have to have faith and a little hope.

Towards the end of these mushy love stories, the real prince charming comes along her path and they live happily ever after.  The person may not necessarily be someone who she would have pictured herself with earlier but they make her feel special and loved, he makes her feel so special and takes care of her and loves her completely. It's just perfect. Okay okay, cheezy, I know.


As it is written – “For there is nothing lost that may be found if sought”. Lost being the one that left and found is the new person that comes along and lifts you off your feet.  Love is a crazy thing, you never know what the future holds. Reading stories like this can give you hope that yes, even though they are fiction, true love can exist. It is real and it is possible to find, it can be just around the corner.. (found if sought).
