- nu, labi, tūlīt jau viss beigsies
- tai skaitā vasara

reāli lepojos būt daļa no kolektīva, mhm.

fuck yeah

domāju, nav ļoti brīnums, ka vakar dabūjām pasākumā grand prix. kā vienmēr, protams, ja grib, var atrast, kur piekasīties, bet kopumā sajūta bija laba un sajūtai adekvāts sniegums.

I was a lower class boy who made it big in the middle class world. I am not impressed with either one of those provincial states of mind. I don't have much respect for other cultures either. Bullshit abounds everywhere the world over as far as I can tell. When I am in Rome I do not want to do as the goddamned Romans do because they are just as fucked up as I am, or worse.

We all lie like hell. It wears us out. It is the major source of all human stress. Lying kills people. The kind of lying that is most deadly is withholding, or keeping back information from someone we think would be affected by it. (..) Keeping secrets and hiding from other people is a trap. Adolescents spend most of their time playing this hide-and-seek game. The better you are at getting by with playing hide-and-seek during adolescence, the harder it is to grow up.

The mind is a jail built out of bullshit. This book tells how the bullshit jail of the mind gets built and how to escape. This is a "how to" book on freedom. Withholding from other people, not telling them about what we feel or think, keeps us locked in the jail. The longer we remain in that jail, the quicker we decline. We either escape, or we go dead. The way out is to get good at telling the truth.

//Brad Blanton, 2005, Radical Honesty: How to Transform Your Life by Telling the Truth

bāc, man liekas, es varētu vienkārši pārrakstīt katru otro rindiņu, šis ir tik ļoti īstais brīdis, vajadzēja kaut ko šādu, lai neiekristu atpakaļ baiļu slazdā, kur godīgums nozīmē nepaceļamu risku un neizbēgamas sāpes, un nav tā vērts.

"I work to relieve their suffering, primarily the suffering of deadness. Deadness is a low-intensity form of suffering. It is the result of staying on guard against imagined greater dangers. The greater dangers we imagine are based on memories of how we have been hurt before. Many of us learned as children that being fully alive was bad and you got hurt for it, so we deadened ourselves: partly as a defense against the big people, and partly to spite them. Deadening ourselves was our way of hiding that we were alive in improper ways, and the only thing to do was to keep it a secret."

nekas no šī visa nav radikāli jauns, bet ir daudz drošāk, ka kāds gudrs cilvēks, kurš ir publicējis grāmatas, tā netieši norāda - klau, bet tu tagad esi uz pareizā ceļa, griezties atpakaļ nozīmē atgriezties pie Ļoti Lielās Kļūdas
