I am hooked, nailed down, but I am not a tree. So why am I here? Hooked and nailed? Travel is not only going to other places, new places, exciting ones. Travel is also about enjoying every single moment, even if stuck to the ground. Like the tree, it always looks ahead, its branches travel, looking for the sun, growing further. I want to travel within my own imagination, creating fantastic worlds again, all mine. I want to travel in time, hell, confuse time itself! And break all the rules of physics. I want to destroy all of these shells, get rid of them all. Start breathing again, and let the sun look for me. I want the Earth to be awake, and travel with me instead.
"It's like if they don't understand my words, and yet I said them, clearly. I wake up everyday not looking forward for the day. I wake up everyday and all I want is for the end of the day to come, so I can crawl back to my bed, and that maybe, that night, unlike all the others, will last for years"
I am very much tired of all these posts listing all the excuses women give not to have sex, or the ones they always talk about men suffering from the lack of sex in their lives because of women. I want to say one thing: can I - in my lifetime - read an article or watch a video that relates the lack of sex for women and give a list of men excuses not to have sex?
50 shades of grey is releasing a movie next valentine's day.
I did not read the book. I watched the trailer though.
From that lousy 2:26 video*, I have already built a... let's say "historically transmitted fury from genes carried since the beginning of times" on this book / movie.
And that is how it went:
Friend: I couldn't hold myself and watched the trailer! It looks fantastic!
Me: Hahahahahaha is it really THAT good? Let me check it out... But why coming out on Valentine's? Friend: Valentine's day is THE day Me: Does it have anything to do with love? XD i thought it was about LUST Friend: looool Well of course! there is a bit of love in the story, I've read the whole book! loool Me: ooooooh too bad Friend: Bad? BAD GIRL! Me: Well yeah lol lust and love are different
Friend: Oh yeah?! No, no, no... Me: And what I REALLY wanted to see, FOR ONCE! is that a book loved by women and FOR women's fantasies is FINALLY splitting the 2! Friend: I really disagree Me: Why can guys simply enjoy lust while we ALWAYS need to link it to love? It's really pathetic! It's like a Cinderella story all over again, made modern by including some sex scenes! It's all about the poor girl who is not confident in herself and wait for a guy to make her feel sexy and confident... waits for that rich handsome (?) guy to show her how to be satisfied in bed... at the end of the day, it's still the pathetic girl fulfilling the whims of the guy... and falls in love with him... REALLY? and they marketed it as THE sensual book for women? The feminists of the 60s has really revolted for nothing! since women are still being used as sexual objects and their own satisfaction is always defined by what men want them to do... even in bed... Friend: Well that's reality sweetheart, for women, love and lust go hand in hand. Me: Nope, I disagree... it's not reality i bet that for us too, if we could actually act with as much sexual freedom as men do, then it will be very clear for us that lust and love are different things
Friend: I don't think we understand each other on that point Me: And it is pathetic that at the end, it's him enjoying and not her... she is like a docile cat pet, he teaches her what she needs to do and she needs to like it... oh boy! Friend: Women can desire as well without love... But love cannot exist without desire. Ideally, it should be both Me: This is idealistic thinking. love can exist without any real or strong lust (lust being way more powerful than desire) Friend: Well, love, lust, desire... what do I know really.
Just to be sure actually, here are the definitions of each: - Love: a strong feeling of affection. - Lust: strong sexual desire - Desire: a strong feeling of wanting to have something or wishing for something to happen
"The desire of love is to give, the desire of lust is to take"
"Money is the most universal and pluralistic system of mutual trust ever devised. It's the only thing in the world everybody trusts"... and yet, it's just a piece of paper.
And although cash is still king, but thinking about it, only 8% of all the money of this world, including governments, companies, the whole of the economy, only 8% of the wealth is "cash". The rest is "numbers" on an account... owned by the banks. And we trust banks, because we give them our most valuable belongings. And yet, we have signed a paper stating that they own our money and, in case of crisis, they have the right to block us from withdrawing our money... which is basically the remaining 92% of the world wealth.
This did not end yet actually, so hang in there.
Not only we actually own paper money that has no value except the "trust" we put in it, and not only the safest place to save your money actually has control over it, you pay taxes from your own income to institutions that exist only to sustain that "trust" in money... and that are only holding still because we have "trust" in them: we trust "security", we trust "leadership", we trust "capitalism" and human rights.
Humans are the only species in this known world that create concepts coming from their pure imagination and make them sustainable by the only concept of trust.
Understanding that even with change, nothing really changes
But also understanding that with time, everything changes.
It is the plurality of our singularity that makes us experience the void within us
And makes us discover... finally and truly
That what makes the stars, also makes the grains of sand.
