In China, they say it is far better to travel a thousand miles than read 10,000 books. I believe them.
You could say it's an accident that I was ideally suited for the work I am doing. It's the feeling of a bowstring being pulled back for 24 years and suddenly being let go. I've always been attracted to ideas that were about revolt against authority. I like ideas about the breaking away or overthrowing of established order. I am interested in anything about revolt, disorder, chaos - especially activity that seems to have no meaning. It seems to me to be the road toward freedom - external revolt is a way to bring about internal freedom. Rather than starting inside, I start outside - reach the mental through the physical. I am a Libran - if astrology has anything to do with it... - JM
Love is right. It starts in my body and then moves to the sky. Every so-called mistake is sacred. Every false lead is a blessing that brings me closer to the real. I keep watching my illusions go up in flames, truth soon cools me in its indubitable way. I don't ask anybody how I should live my life. I just live it my way. I am not saying that I will not make mistakes, I will. But I will try not to make the same mistake again and again. That's enough. I'll try and find a new mistake every day, and make it. That is the only way to learn, that is the only way for me to come to my own inner light.

Dianna
stubborn, optimistic me!!
~2nd trip of the day :)
ooh! somebody's grouchy today. why, i wonder...
I am so fucking glad this worked anonymous. have a great life... Buh bye...
whoever it was... thanks for deleting the comment. I wasn't intersted in it anyway.
Anonymous: You again huh? What, can't live without me. Why don't you go buy a few kilos of guts and post your identity along with your fucked up comments? What you think was a post was just Dateline Qatar. On my blog, it's not considered a post.
Thetis: That's a sad face I am assuming. coz it's the opposite of :) which I was told is a smiley face.. so :( has to be a sad face. Well... whatever.
Anonymous: You again... huh? I'm glad you won't come here again. Love you for this. Get the fuck out, are my final words to you.
PURSE: U r ever so sweet. Hugs... you have a great weekend too.
RAVEN: Just an off day... but even if you make zero trips a day this blog won't stop... not even an ounce of its attitude and character.
TEL: You already got your answer.
Yours Truly Conman: You the man... I like your attitude. Who the fuck cares about who likes you and who doesn't anyway. Lol... Muah.

PMS, dude?
lol... almost...
If you're writing to me: I'm doing research for an article on blogging in the Gulf. You know, multiculturalism/cross-cultural communication in cyber-space etc. So I'm afraid that you'll have to put up with my presence for a while.
If you're interested in the idea(s) of freedom, have a look at the writings of the Russian artist Ilya Kabakov.
But btw: it seems a bit of a paradox to claim privacy on a blog that's open to everyone. What's the post really about?
anonymous, I am doing exactly the same story. In fact, it will be published next week. Blogging out here. Analysis on the blogs.
And about the paradox you're talking about... this is a place where I take out whatever I want to. I don't think before it. I wanted to ask people like you to screw off, so I did. Didn't think about it.
God, when will these people get some sense...
About me reading up... not intersted thank you.
Anyway... screw off. I don't like anonymous comments...
Mine won't go to the journal until next year. Time is one of the factors I'm including.
Sorry for remaining anonymous. Eventually I'll create my own blog. Until then... well... I remain an anonymous Saudi.
I must say anonymous: you are really putting off. just get yourself a life...
What is the matter with you?
Saudi
Like right now one anonymous has done, e mailed me (e mail address on profile) and left her name, address, phone number, every single thing to prove her identity, you do the same if u expect me to show u less crap here...
get it? I do not like people who comment on my blog but don';t reveal their identities...
I prefer your "crap" to the alternative you're suggesting. Judging from your reactions, the problem seems to be greater to you than it is to me.
- But I will be visiting your blog frequently until my article is done.
Saudi
ur welcome...
refrain from commenting though... or passing any sort of judgements.
