At times, it is best not to hope and not to expect anything at all. Hope is something dangerous.

And sadly, I erase mine. It's been such a ride.

To Kill Time (While Waiting for Next Week)

New on my shelf... 

And the book that I've been wanting to read, but never got the chance to buy (and I bought it last week, at last..)

Haven't read the last one, but somehow managed to read half of the first one (and still going). I personally love the twist of modern mythology, fantasy and battle in a very american way. The protagonist, Shadow, has became one of my favorite taciturn characters ever. I expect a surprising ending from this book. As for A Game of Thrones, well, the popularity of the serials is enough said, but I'm looking for a detailed, not-in-the-movie descriptions of characters and plots. Ah, remind me of how I used to sit and read LOTR trilogy, Eragon (and the following books), Abarat, and many other fantasy novel. Oh the joy of reading!

Are you OK#2?

Harmonizing ourself with reality, is a thing easy to said, but can be very tricky to be done. But still, for the sake of being content, gotta do that.

Just saying.

Are you Ok?

This website is somehow funny yet it made me do some reading on objective reality. And one of the best excerpt from many sources about objective reality is this one:

....It does not matter if you like the view of reality or not. It is how things are. If you like it or don't like it, that's your business -- it's not the business of reality. If you don't like how things are, the best you can do is to find out why, so that you can begin to harmonize yourself with it. Otherwise, you will suffer. This doesn't mean reality is punishing you. It simply means that if you harmonize yourself with reality, you will experience a sense of peace and freedom, and if you don't, you will experience discord. (Facets of Unity, pg 255)

Jleb. At the end , it is all about our perception of objective reality, really.. Everything is simply a reality as it is. Whether we're ok with that or not..that is up to us. For now, gotta do some checking on my setting of perception then. Later Alligator!
