Who's Lazy

I've been lazy of late I have to admit but aren't we all?

It doesn't take a noble prize winning genius to notice the world is far from the lovely future we keep painting on the sci-fi channels.

Funny thing is when you ask someone what they are doing about it the answer almost always comes back to what can I do I'm just one person!

Well frankly you can do everything, it just takes one person because it's that mindset that is the real problem, you're looking for the crowd to help you but you feel alone. However if you start you'll soon find that the crowd finds you, but you have to get off you arse and change the first part yourself the power is in your hands and always has been.

So stop being lazy and get to work on changing the world or some that isn't running the way you like.

Why be normal when you can be better

I hear it allot that people say to one another that's not normal or your not normal.

Normality is made up by the masses so for me to be normal I'd have to be nothing special about me in any way so that I fit into this normal group, frankly this is something I just can't do because this would mean closing my eyes to the world around me.

Almost not a week goes by without me being called not normal, this is something I've come to accept and even come to like it as I like to stand out so much so that I've started pinning notes to my office space "why be normal when you can be better"

Being normal is to be nothing special, and I don't know one person that doesn't want to be special in some way.

So next time you feel yourself about to say "your not normal" say something like "wish I could be as cool as you" and see the response ;-) I promise it will be better.

Friendship

We are often slow to trust people with everything and friends are no different.

Making a new friend is like crossing a frozen river, at first you place your foot very softly on the ice testing it will hold, in the same way, we often say something to a new friend that might not be true or is quite interesting to see if it will be spread.

Just like the ice the more steps you take with this friend the greater your trust in them.

Sometimes the ice breaks other times it cracks and lots of the time it's deeper than you can see.

Security

I've worked a long time in Information Technology and in that area of the world security means allot but I find myself asking today is there anywhere security doesn't mean allot?

As people, we are always looking for job security to know that tomorrow if we go to work the job will be there.

We look for emotional security to know that the people we love also love us and will always be there, and of course physical security, that no one is going to harm us.

So as you see we really aren't very complex when you look at it, there are only a few things we want, so why is it so hard to get them?

The simplest answer comes in the form of emotions, hate, fear, envy, jealousy, spite, selfishness, greed.
These more negative emotions also drive people to do things that will result in making someone else lose their security.

I find it amazing that we talk about right and ethics yet most people no more understand them than they do the physics.
Both are simple subject if you only stop to think about them, but sadly we never give ourselves the time to think.

Adults?

In the dictionary, the definition of an adult is a person who is fully grown, but if I think closely about this I don’t know any adults because if you take someone to be grown to the level of meaning mentally then there isn’t one adult on this planet.

This I think might explain why when we look around is we see such childish behaviour, countries acting like children pointing at one another and say “be he started it”
But this is just one example, another example is the emotional blackmail that is placed on people by family such as but if you move away we won’t see you, It’s been my observation that people don’t seem to ever seem to see what is best for others might mean doing something you don’t want.

So I ask a simple question is it too much for us to grow up mentally as well as physically?

I don't believe I'm asking for the impossible just the reasonable.
