You Think I Want Your Life?

YOU SAID IT ALL

After this article of yours , there is not much more left for me to say about this “start up” philosophy of life — and obvious need to convince , that is, to sell this “model for aspiration” , this particular “key to happiness” the methods and techniques of it, to the rest of the population. I guess that every new convert to this idea will be the increased unit of value , or something such to the brave young start up enterpreneurs.

According to my own ideas about the values in life and my definition of happiness, these are also not at all to be measured by the size of my bank account or the yearly income.

But since you said it all so well Kell , maybe a bit more directly and to the point than I would, I better keep it short, as the sun is getting too hot — and I am about to go for a swim here on my beautiful beach In India (It is not my property, but after 4 months of living here , it feels like “my beach”. I think it says enough about my aspirations in life and ideas of happiness..

In these months I have read so many books , that I am starting to worry about my eyes… A good book read , being one of my value units for measuring the quality of life. You know how it is : when you read a good book , you teleport yourself in time and space , while lying in your hammock — zero energy spent for the most amazing journeys. So , dear Kel we meet again . I guess it is because we seem to live on the same side of the tracks. Ideologically speaking, of course.

Life is precious and quite short — at least that part when one is able to live it to its full extent . Then we are done . We take nothing with us . All that is left is the naked soul to continue it karmic cycle , or however each person chooses to see it. As I see it , it is only our karma we take with us , while the definite fact remains: no material posessions go with us, once our time is up. That should be a consideration when one chooses a certain lifestyle and goals during our brief passage through this world.

Now I am off for a swim and a bit of sun, to strech my muscles and feed my bones with some vitamine D.
