Thrive

A few days back I was watching a documentary called "Thrive". This was about how living entities are all created to thrive and about how the whole cosmic manifestation is based on one mathematical formula called the torus. 

The torus is nature's way of creating and sustaining life and it can serve as a template for sustainability. Knowledge of the pattern is already advancing fan and propeller technologies, powering clean, "new energy" devices, informing non-violent self defense, and helping us better understand the nature of the "unified field". (http://www.thrivemovement.com/the_code-fundamental_pattern)

I actually really liked the whole documentary. However when Foster Gamble, the man behind the whole of the documentary and who has dedicated his life's work to this theory, starting to "pursue the money" in order to evaluate why most people are not able to thrive, he came upon a rather shocking occurrence. The whole of the economical system of the entire world is basically dominated by just three main families. Who are ultimately trying to pursue world-dominance. I know it sounds rather cliche, yet after hearing what Foster had to say, I have come to really believe it's true. Even though there is a slight possibility of mistakes in his theory. But I was wondering why do these families not just produce money for themselves, and starve the rest?

Love is much like a wild rose, beautiful and calm, but willing to draw blood in its defense.

As Mother Teresa said: "The hunger for love is much more difficult to remove than the hunger for bread"... It's funny actually how this type of emotion is actually almost as common as any other. Yet it is such an elevated state of being. Being in love is for most people almost impossible to do, because how do you define it? Is being completely passionate love or just lust? Is being shy and afraid to talk to the person and just getting butterflies in your stomach sufficient to be called love or is that just a crush? Because you never know whether you really love someone until the situation calls for action isn't it? Well many people have said that love actually doesn't really exist. It's only possible to love parents, children, or God. Although I certainly do not disagree with that, I still think that it isn't impossible to fall in love with another person. 

People since time immemorial have done many unspeakable things in the name of love. I think just as there is hate, there is the possibility of love. Just as hate is flickering, according to my opinion love is as well.. It's like a fire. Starting with a mere spark, after feeding it with the correct materials, becomes a strong flame. "Love is much like a wild rose, beautiful and calm, but willing to draw blood in its defense." (Mark A. Overby) Love becomes so strong that it can overcome obstacles with its power. Love is one of the most driving components in the nowadays otherwise misguided society. 

Many are just living life because they have to according to the guidelines that are stated already. Yet what makes them, these mere powerless and hopeless beings, achieve big things? It's LOVE for their country, for their friends, their family and their partners. Love is capable of changing a person for the better. But I think that not just any "butterfly-emotion" can be called love. Sometimes it's indeed lust, or just jealousy. "My friend is with that guy who is just too good for her" and so on. I think that love in it's pure sense is nothing but good. Love with the basis of lust, jealousy, having a common enemy, or anything besides the pure feeling of wanting to always see that one person happy, is not love. 

Too much! haha

Big changes in life are there for everyone, yet everyone's choices differ like heaven and hell. However somehow I don't feel obliged to choose anything. Although there are pressures from all sides... Art, Music, Academics, and who knows what more. I have been watching this drama series called "Gossip Girl" which is a little like the lives everyone is living.. Minus the amount of cash they throw around of course. "Sugar and spice, and everything nice" that's what we think of the life of the rich, and that's what we all aspire for. Just look at the series, of course you have the occasional puffing up of the topics involved, but nonetheless that's what life is all about. Every single person is living their own life, but not only that, they feel that this life they are living is only about themselves which is not entirely true... We're just a part of the reality called life, and the real main character in our life story is.... big surprise... dum dum dum duuuuuum! not us.. 

The Grass is Never Greener on the Other Side

Just this night I was thinking of the famous saying "the grass is never greener on the other side". I don't think this saying is true. I think that the grass can actually be very much greener on the other side. Your grass-field may be a little more dull, but this doesn't mean that the grass-field on the other side is any better than yours even though it might be healthier. However grass can always be made healthier. So even though the grass on the other side is greener, it never indicates that the grass on your side can't be made into green. And with enough effort your grass-field might even get greener than the one on the other side.. ;)..
