A “Perfect World” is not Perfect.

If there was nothing wrong or nothing bad about the world, then would there be any good left in it?

I mean, what we know as being good and pure is due to comparing and contrasting it to something that was bad and tainted. This is why I believe that a perfect world would be very hard to achieve with that point of view. So if we do get to that point where everything is “perfect”, it would not be due to the absence of what is bad but rather we’ve learned to deal with the negatives so well that we focus more on the positives instead.

No we don’t learn to ignore what is bad or anything like that but rather we learn to have a more positive outlook on everything.

And that is what I believe is a Perfect World.

Don’t get it perfect, Get it right.

I’m sure everyone has heard the age-old phrase “Practice makes perfect” and while nothing is ever perfect, we are able to get close enough to it that we actually get the next best thing; we get things RIGHT.

As you know I recently got an iPhone and I’ve been taking full advantage of it by getting “Infinity Blade” (among other things). This game however does have its obstacles such as the “God King“…. 

and the “Wood Jesters”.

These two enemies, especially the Wood Jesters, were a nightmare to deal with. I kept being unsuccessful with them every time and it was frustrating because they stood in my way from finishing the game. Yet, I kept going against them and each time I did, I learned something new. Mostly though, I learned what to expect from each attack; where it would come from and what were the tell tale signs before it happened.

I kept at it, I practiced at how to beat the “Wood Jesters” and applied that to the God King as well. Eventually…….. I got it right.

I wasn’t perfect, I didn’t go through it without getting hit once but I did finish him off and I did finish the game. So rather than focusing so much on getting it to be perfect, I’m much more content with getting it right.

So it looks like after this little alone time with the game, it’s time to apply it to everything else I do.

Close to me, Close to you.

Today is about getting close with another person; whether that means intimacy or friendship is up to you. We all get closer with another person when we get to know them better. When we find out who they are and what they’re all about.

But in the end I feel that there’s no greater intimacy nor closeness with someone than by knowing what their thoughts are. Now I don’t mean you interrogate them or force them to tell you everything. I mean that they trust you enough to confide their deepest thoughts as well what’s on their mind in that moment without the fear of facing ridicule nor contempt.

That is when you know you’re really close with that person.

Savior.

Music; I absolutely love it.

I love its ability to stir up happy and energizing emotions in such a small amount of time.

We’re living, we’ve got those days where it’s just groggy from sunrise to sunset. But when you plop in your earphones and play your favorite song(s), it’s like you’ve been lifted out of that terrible mood, even if it’s just for a second.

You can escape for a breather, collect your thoughts and then jump back into the task at hand.

Music is a savior because with out it we wouldn’t last very long.

Bury.

Memories and Experiences; once they enter your mind, its very hard to get rid of them completely. The more you try to delete them, the more they take over your mind; the only thing you can do is bury them under other memories and experiences.

Just want to give a nice warm welcome to my new followers over the last few days =)

Tell me what it was that attracted you to my blog? How did you find it and something about yourself.

Send a short message to me like a sentence Or you can write me story; either way I’ll read it and get back to you.

The ask box is there. http://dson.tumblr.com/ask

ALSO, this applies to people who have followed me for awhile, I would love to hear your thoughts as well.

Have a great day =)

haha well the thing with actualization is that it can be great but extremely horrible at the same time. It’s because if you can actualize any of your thoughts then pretty much all the negative thoughts that can cross your mind will become a reality and then you correct it by changing it to positive thoughts yet then you just become drawn into a ridiculous cycle since we’ll always have some negative thoughts and positive thoughts.

I guess that’s why we’re not allowed limitless power =(.

One Superpower.

Imagine what your life would be like if you could have a superpower…

Ever since I was little and I watched X-Men, Fantastic 4, Spiderman etc. and I always thought about how amazing it would be to have a superpower like them.

If I was allowed to have just one, I’d be content because really all I would need is just one that would benefit me in my life, one that I could use every day of my life.

So…. it wouldn’t be Spiderman’s powers; although swinging around the city and shooting webs out of my wrists did seem cool for the longest time when I was little. It wouldn’t be the power of regeneration like Wolverine because I honestly do not want to live forever….

Therefore, the power I would absolutely love to have would be…

T e l e p o r t a t i o n 

Like Nightcrawler and that guy from Jumper.

I can go where ever I want in the world as long as I put my mind to it. Meaning, there would be no need to pay for gas anymore or an airplane ticket or even insurance for a car! I’ll never be late to anything again and I can take an instant vacation to any spot in the world whenever I want.

Absolute freedom would only be a thought away…


The World outside your World.

Entering “Art Central” the other night,  it wound up helping me break away the world of University from my mind. Not because there was no homework nor because the environment was art orientated but because of the people around me.

When we’ve spent too much time in any one setting like work or school we just wind up getting caught up in it because it’s such a big part of our lives. But it’s only because we made it a big part of our lives.

Seeing the crowd in “Art Central”; seeing the difference in people, etiquettes, styles….. it was like I was in a different world.

No, it was that I finally stood in the world outside of work and outside of school. 

Unfamiliar faces surrounded me; young and old. The masses filled the space around me; cushioning me, pushing me,  as I moved through the night.

While the people at school may know you or of you; once you enter the world, you start out as just another person in the crowd.

There is a bigger world out there.

And there always will be.

-gasmic Moments

Eargasm: the feeling we get when listening to an amazing song; one that resonates throughout our entire body and soul.

Yet with all -gasms, the stimuli varies as we know more than one song can initiate an Eargasm, but reusing the same stimuli (in this case a song) in succession depreciates it’s impact on creating an Eargasm, until finally the song is just plain old boring.

It is just like all the happy and irreplaceable moments we hold in our minds. Every time we replay them, we can feel how amazing and memorable that moment was but playing it too many times (in succession) takes away the amazing feeling.

What do we do when our iPod’s are filled with boring songs?

We replace them with newer and even more exciting songs.

When we replace them though, we may delete those songs off of our iPods but we still have a copy of it somewhere in our computers or in a CD.

We replace our past exciting moments from our conscious mind (the iPod) with newer, more recent moments but it doesn’t mean that we forget about our past moments of glory (the songs in the CD or computer); it just means that we are taking a break from replaying them at the moment.

By adding newer memories and moments, it gives us options and a wider range to have a wider range of things to choose from that makes us happy rather than just focusing on solely one thing to be happy.

Having more than one memorable moment is always a great moment.

Note To Self: Fill Your Life with Memorable Moments.

Repetition

As I was driving down the road from my house, a car turns in and follows me from behind; it’s entire front bumper was torn off probably from an accident but seeing as how me, driving the speed limit was too slow for this person they sped up and switched lanes only to cut back in front of me.

Now you’d think that after one accident leaving a person’s car like that, you’d learn to not speed anymore. I guess they didn’t get the memo so maybe they’ll need it to happen again in order to learn?

Because with everything that we learn to do from walking to calculating quantum mechanics is reinforced by “Repetition, by doing it many times through practice.

How’d you become good at swimming? 

You did it many times.

How’d you become good at chatting with other people?

You did it many times.


Now learning not to drive recklessly may require a person to get into repetitions of driver’s ed classes but in the most extreme of cases, perhaps more accidents would be needed before they learn. 

In the end, maybe they’ll learn or maybe they won’t, I can’t control the actions they take in their lives but I can with my own.

The well being of a person inside a moving vehicle is enough reason to not drive like a  maniac and do more damage to their car. All it takes is repetitions of realizing your own safety because one accident is already too much, on your wallet and your body which unfortunately cannot go through many repetitions of car accidents.

The One

Your soul mate, your partner, your other half.

Throughout our upbringing we’ve always been led to believe that there is only One person that is for us. It is true to a certain point because if you choose to live the rest of your life with this person, then they will be “The One” in your life. But before that, when you are looking for that person, you don’t know who will be “The One” so you go around trying to find them through dating.

But if the relationship goes south, we will still try to fix it with all our might. It may work, it may not and when it doesn’t people get bent out of shape at this because they can’t possibly think of themselves with anyone else as they believe this person is “The One”.

Well think of it this way. Surely when you’ve walked around in your daily life, there must have been more than just one person who has caught your eye. Whether it’s a guy or girl (depending on your preference), there’s always been more than one person that we’ve noticed and thought “Wow, they’re cute”, showing our instant interest in them.

Yet if we’ve shown interest in more than one person, why would we assume that there’s only one person out there for us?

It’s because we take the meaning of “The One” too literally, “there’s only one person out there for us, no, because if that were the case then we’d only ever have interest in just one person and no one else. If that were the case, what if your “soul mate” or “the one” lives on the other side of the world?

You may never meet them and that’s that since if there is only just one person for you to be with, you’re not going to be interested in anyone else around you and may wind up alone.

In our every day lives, we show interest in more than one person around us because there’s more than one person out there that is great for us!!

Hence, we can move from relationship to relationship after one ends. We can find new people to date, new boyfriends or girlfriends because there is more than just one person for us out there.

Don’t throw the title, “The One” around so casually, the person you’re with isn’t “The One” until you’ve both decided ( and I mean truly decided) to live the rest of your lives together.
