I think I have it

Did a bit searching on happiness.... especially after my friends called me common. I realised the following. Even though I don't have a house on my back like the tortoise, or can run as far as the cheetah... or have a beautiful voice like the parrot, or feathers like the ostrich... I'm am special in my own way, and I don't have the approval of the people I work with or love with to be just that: special. with this I am content... but looking back I often wonder if I ever progress beyond this point?

Read this cool story that I would like to share: Maybe you heard about this story – It’s quite well known. I love it and gives me a smile every time I read it. It’s all about doing what you want in life and being happy. Enjoy!A boat docked in a tiny Greek village. An American tourist complimented the Greek fisherman on the quality of his fish and asked how long it took him to catch them.“Not very long,” answered the Greek.“But then, why did n’t you stay out longer and catch more?” asked the American.The Greek explained that his small catch was sufficient to meet his needs and those of his family.The American asked, “But what do you do with the rest of your time?”“I sleep late, fish a little, play with my children, and take a siesta with my wife. In the evenings I go into the village to see my friends, dance a little, drink a bit, and sing a few songs. I have a full life.”The American interrupted, “I have an MBA from Harvard and I can help you. You should start by fishing longer every day. You can then sell the extra fish you catch. With the revenue, you can buy a bigger boat.With the extra money the larger boat will bring, you can buy a second one and a third one and so on until you have an entire fleet of trawlers. Instead of selling your fish to a middleman, you can negotiate directly with the processing plants and maybe even open your own plant.You can then leave this little village and move to Athens, London or even New York City! From there you can direct your huge enterprise.”“How long would that take?” asked the Greek.“Twenty, perhaps twenty-five years,” replied the American.“And, after that? Afterwards?”“That’s when it gets really interesting,” answered the American, laughing. “When your business gets really big, you can start selling stocks and make millions!”“Millions? Really? And after that?”“After that you’ll be able to retire, live in a tiny village near the coast, sleep late, play with your grandchildren, catch a few fish, take a siesta with your wife, and spend your evenings singing, dancing, playing and drinking with your friends…

Communication is the key to most things.... just a pity we all speak different languages...Facebook

What do you do when life hands you some bad stuff on the way, when you loose stuff, do not feel happy or content in your environment - and try to change it, but it twirls just down and down the spiral of almost self destruction.

I wonder. This is happening to me at the moment. No matter how many good confirmations I repeat, what I do to adjust my feelings or emtions, the universe just come and knocks me down, and kicks me a time or two when and if he/she can?

I often wonder about new beginnigs. Is the new beginnings only on a calander, as so the end of something... or is the new begnning only within yourself, and so also the end? That means: I can start and end every split moment I breathe!

Read alot about everybodies wishes and dreams for 2012.... and it all about living. WHAT MAKES A PUPPET REALLY HAPPY? When you are happy within yourself, then all the other things will fall into place!

I often wonder what would have happened 10 years ago I I wasn't at the house I was watching, if the specific man did not come over, if the Internet did not exist.... would i be here at this spot now? I think sometimes the truth my dad taught me as a teenager - simple as it may seem - is more than a philosophy... I have to mow the A rugby fields lawn during the holidays: my dad used to say: the way you mow the lawn, is the way you will live!/do you job. If you try to cut corners, you'll have to come back and do it all over again.

I wonder if the corners that Ive cut, or the corners that I didn't cut is not always a recurring flaw/weakness that comes back every time... and if I change the pattern now, will that edges of life stay away or make another turn?

Read a letter I wrote to a friend in Perth in 2009 and wondered what changed? And was shocked to really say: nothing.... Maybe my weight, cause the gym was non exciting, or the fact that I did not get a letter from my dad this Christmas because his dead for over a year now... but other than that: nothing. What did I achieve in the year or two past? Or is the fact that I did not achieve anything significant, an achievement on its own ... breaking the pattern to prove that i am bigger, better ... at least something of worth. Maybe this is just that: I am worth enough to just be.... (and as a puppet) hang when I'm hanging, and move when I'm moving! Only difference in being moved by a manipulator is that I can make the choice, to move or not move, (a puppet cant), to use or not use, to cry or not cry, to phone or not phone, to be!

Question is, am I going to be fully, or cut the corners and miss the small pleasures in life.

Its been a month...

since i last chatted to ... myself, realy? I was so busy that i realy did not even get a change to hang around here ever so often. I often wonder what is the purpose of thus running around.

Opene a new show with a friend of mine, Willie Wakkermaak. Was a bit of a desaster, but what can you expect from amateurs. He'll get nto the swig of things.

In the meantime I read an article about God.... and let your mind go n this one: God does not exist, he acts...

He is in word and action, not in being. If I do not live my arm, I am dead - and so is God.

have a great one

I often wonder

how much longer we have to tolerate bad karma.... and yes, itis advidable to just ignore the animals we do not like, bu what if me as a puppet needs to hang next to someone that is out to make my life hell.

when is it ego, and when is it a need of love?
