Ego vs Love

 This is as ancient, as it could get.

From ancient monkeys, quarreling and screeching for one last banana, to modern people.

I am curious why was all that mess and fuss in everyday conversation?

Why do we have the urge to dominate the conversation with people we love or who are close to us?


"Vanity. My favorite sin."-said Pacino in "Devil's Advocate".And he was right.

When two people meet, and one is more powerful than the other, vanity takes over.

The one feels entitled to belittle the other, so he could feel better, smarter, and special. And that ruins relationships.

"Humility is the opposite of ego. It's the state of not thinking you are better than others. It's also the willingness to deal with things that come up in recovery"

People need to compare themselves with others. But, when they do that, others can't help but feel smaller.

So, what can cure this awful feeling, that alienates people?

Love.

Solely love.

And shutting off that reptilian brain of ours, that screams, Me, me, me!

Today Mood:Tree in the wind



 Watching the trees,

just watching the trees,

from my window, so pale,

The branches are moving,

like moody dancers;

They are free, 

they are so free,

how they let the wind

change their shapes,

moving back and forth,

so rapidly,

so free...


Independent



 I lately grasp one important fact about my musical taste: It was most of the time alternative music.

The word alternative comes from (source, Google)

noun. : music that is produced by performers who are outside the musical mainstream, that is typically regarded as more eclectic, original, or challenging than most popular music (such as conventional rock, pop, or country), and that is often distributed by independent record labels.

And there is another word: "Indie". I often used it, but till now, I didn't know what it meant(somehow I linked it with Indians :).

But no.

It is derived from "Independent".

What a beautiful, fantasy word, and meaning!

People are striving to be independent, to get freedom in life, because the whole conception of this world is to be enslaved, codependent, especially financially, and it became exhausting to live like that.

I guess indie music represents that rebell voice where something can be free, different, like it should be.

Musically speaking,if observed, alternative music has sponatneous rhytms, unexpected harmonies, and evolving melodies. It doesnt follow the stereotypical musical patterns of commercial but rather has its own unpredictable flow.It is spontaneous and unique.

Phrase :"The music selection is soul reflection" is really true.



 







How to not to get job on internet

 


After months of searching for some kind, any kind of job on the internet, I felt, well, exhausted.

All those shiny commercials, promising jobs, salary, money.

Not to mention all the grandiose titles on how to stay positive and grow, management, management, and engagement.

Well, I did engage, a lot. Job hunting can be tedious :

Creating cv, and resume, learning new skills, adapting, etc... It's like easier to go hunting in wild, for some animal, than this.

I searched and searched. Of course, I ignored jobs with "Senior Developer" and "Marketing Management adapter "(Irony).

Are those some kind of robots?

So, I turned to myself and wrote. It isn't really hard, and nobody will ignore your application.

Out of millions, tons of titles "How to get an internet job", I decided to make a U-turn: "How not to get an internet job". In three steps.

First step: Don't google "How to get a job on the internet".

Second: If you are not some kind of CEO, how do you think you will get a job?

Third: Practice mindfulness

If you are still struggling, feel free to comment or email me, I would gladly consult you on your journey.

Still, he gives me hope:




Towanda!
