another day in paradise...

Ever thought about that, for every second that passes is a part of your history.
how many live in the past? How many think of their future? It's pretty correct in saying that you can't make the hands move forward, you can watch them moving past, so your best bets living in the present and to wait and see whats coming around the next corner, without guessing?

Just a thought..

So, work is work.Frightening prospect to think that you spend more time with the people you work with than the people you love at home or friends and family, and yet you hardly know them.Or maybe not. 40 hours a week working. Depends on how late you stay up and what you do with your time.Then of course you have the weekends..suppose it evens out. However, you still spend a lot of time with people that you hardly know, (there are exceptions to this rule of course..)

And for everyday that goes past I convince myself more and more that TV has become the Babylon Whore of our civilisation and you'd have to be very naiv if you didn't understand that your being controlled to what your watching and how your thought patterns are being guided.
Throw the frikken babysitter out and breathe! You stop reasonable sense and thinking.
In hindsight I remember the major xmas sales were all based on TV's, lcd or plasma.42 inch of Big brother or O.C. Ok, maybe there is a time and a place for just switching into veggie state, but that has become abused and now we struggle to get out of it.I'm sounding old.Oh dear.

I laughed today as I walked through Göteborg listening and thinking , " ah, the sounds of Gbg" when it fact it was the sounds of amplified Peruvians playing "smoke on the water" on pan pipes, the sound echoing throughout the lower quarters..frikken dreadful
And on the otherside a new shop was being built and modified by some Polish workers who funnily enough decided to grind some girders in the polak way, which is to say the metal shards spraying all over passers-by..Hilarious.So you had Power pan pipes mixed with Grinder and a stage show from Wasp..Nobody of course would have noticed if there had been a TV switched on and hanging in the middle of the square..

I heard a comedian once say that wars would never have been fought if they'd flown helicopters over the troops with TV's as everybody would have stopped and watched TV.Doesn't matter where you are nowadays, they're all switched on, even in clothes shops.

And the worst of course, well it has to be the people who buy a gym card , put on their nano and run on a running machine indoors watching a tv with the sound off...what the fuck???
This is nearly as bad as those busy bee fathers who are "made" to take a parental day and you hear them talking business on their mobile phones whilst their kids look completely bored out of their wits..sad sad little men!

I was hoping there may have been something a wee bit more special with my last day as a 3 something.But all I got was a huge bill from TFF and a reminder to pay the telenor mobile bill.
Gotta get out of the rat race,
