Many things get changed with age.
We used to be stubborn when we were young, now we make compromises in old age.
The thing which seemed very important in young-age, today the same thing seems useless.
The thing which seemed useless in young-age, today the same thing seems very important.

With age our needs get changed, our deeds get changed, our feelings get changed, our behavior get changed, our thoughts get changed, and sometimes we completely get changed.

The other night, I poured a cup of milk using only the light from the refrigerator. No issues.
I often wonder (envision) what it would be like to have a loss of vision, or hearing. Twenty years ago, I had a monster inner ear infection and get vertigo sometimes when there is a change in atmospheric pressure. I was able to walk through my house in Miami without bumping into walls. It's different in my condo and I'll shout profanities if I accidentally kick the corner of the bed frame. In a dark room, I become a mouse and guide myself along the furniture avoiding the bed frame.

I know a licensed massage therapist who is legally blind. He was born with normal vision but genetics gave him the same deck of cards that his mother had and she lost her vision as an adult. He studied massage while he could see. He also studied karate... just in case he needed to defend himself as a blind man!
Accepting cash only, he's got a viewer that enlarges anything placed on the scanning bed. He can see light and dark and images are blurred as though he;s looking through several layers of waxed paper. Only a tiny part in the upper corner of his eye is good enough to see the enlargement from the viewer.

I think comedian Richard Prior went to visit Stevie Wonder and found the house was dark. It was fine for Stevie, but Richard couldn't see his way around!

Attitude plays a big part of dealing with a handicap whether it was from birth or something that came about through life. I think it's normal for people to go through depression.
As a teenager, one of my neighbors lost a leg to leukemia. I remember seeing him at the public pool making the best of a summer. He didn't have time to think about depression... less than a year later he died.

I was doing my normal music YouTube surfing and (typical of YouTube) some unrelated selections appeared. I clicked one to see Nick Vujicic, a man born without arms and legs giving motivational speeches. I watched. Not all. But I bookmarked it and will come back to see more. He's got a handful of other videos.
Eye opening to say the least. A man without arms and legs overcomes mountains of obstacles and does seminars to Inspire others. He's got books, websites, DVD's



While my blog is about overcoming blindness, Nick gets through life pretty well...

....Sigmund Freud was way off on most things. But he had a few things to say worth listening to. One was p*nis ENVY, present, to varying degrees, in every woman ever born. Often begins in quite early years, after first seeing one of these miracle body parts, usually in another young family member, and saying something like, "hey world, where's mine?" It typically intensifies as soon as she sees her first really angry one. But I digress. The other was early work on the possible causes of neuroses. According to him, it was interpsychic (subconscious) unresolved conflicts, allegedly from intrafamily s*xual issues. In love with mom, and thinking of ways of rubbing out dad. Sure, mostly interesting stories, but the disorders do seem to exist. In my case, lots of longevity in the family genes. So why worry? May have another thirty years to annoy the ladies here on CS. What a country. Soooooo, why have I begun to scrutinize many of my activities of daily living, which I perform in a fairly efficient manner anyway, to save time my remaining precious moments, to waste time doing other things. Such as Blogging here? NEUROSIS. Hopeless, but not serious. Can't make this stuff up.

First time I'm writing this stuff on here. Anyway I just need a place to brainstorming my head, my thoughts and my anger toward things I couldn't handle it. I posted some poems here also, you can check it on my profile.

Yeah I used to write daily in my journal. I make and creating poems, quotes and story. My first book will launch soon in my country, FOUR PIECES and it used Bahasa not English. I'm writing the second one with English and hopefully I could share some of it here.

I have duties at work. Also an arrogant Boss. My job is fine but it has lot of pressure. Sometimes I'm stuck and I can't handle my emotions towards people around me because Boss have a trust issues and He wants me to be as perfect as he wanted me too. Well, I'm only human, I am not God and it's burdened me sometimes. Not sometimes but a lots. Perfection is not human and I hate it. I hate being that person everyday.

So, here's the thing about work and my circumstances:
When you've tried being nice, no bad intention,and just showing some respect and teamwork , hell etc heaven knows what I've done for, then suddenly they threw sh*t right back to you. Like---, wth? Then you started questioning and doubting yourself what on earth happened with me?
It is me or it's just in my head?
OR--- I'm too crazy to be a part of them? Then who's the one to blame?
Most of the time I've done my best and that's what I've got? Is it fair enough?

Enlighten me because I started to hate that If you know what I meant.
As a leader I think You should have known and aware about everything that had happened in your workplace and stop blaming someone else. Because there're lots of conflagration in your space but you've been busy pleasing someone else's problem instead of taking good care of your team.

Human created God or God created human or both created each other.

The concept of God exists only in the human species while not in other species.

The theory of existence of God is only based on that 'if there is creation there must be creator'.

If there is God, there must be only one God, why there are so many Religions and so many Religious-Gods and so many discriminations.

Gandhiji said.....

the only way to end the hatred and war is through peace and love. For that reason, Gandhi is a true hero to all because of his bravery and what he did for India's independence.

“An eye for an eye will only make the whole world blind.”


“An error does not become truth by reason of multiplied propagation, nor does truth become error because nobody sees it.Truth stands, even if there be no public support. It is self sustained.”


“Earth provides enough to satisfy every man's needs, but not every man's greed.”


“The greatness of humanity is not in being human, but in being humane.”

The human body but also the human brain are able to do much more than we know and I will explain them one by one. Before that, however, if you do not want to believe what I say, you are free to save your time and use it in another direction. Now let's start with the human eye, they are able to see colors we don't know we can see, they can see in the dark, and they can zoom in or out. Don't you believe me? Test ... 1 wait for night to come and if you have a car or neighbor car with alarm on it, look at the flashing light on the car window, it doesn't seem to have a bright light, now concentrating a little look elsewhere car but so that you can see the light bulb with, a corner of the eye .. you will notice that suddenly that light is brighter. Now near, far. Sit in a chair, stretch your legs forward, and put your hand face down to your feet, but slightly to your left or right (you choose the direction) now look at your feet, then move your gaze to your hands, you will notice that the legs are slightly visible in the fog when the gaze is focused on the hands. Repeat the process and you will realize that your eyes move away or close their eyes depending on the object you are looking at (the eyes can do this with something at a great distance, but we do not know how to use them). As with the dark, the eyes can see in the dark you just need to train and use it properly but we don't know how to do that. Now, the human brain - it is our most powerful weapon, in the true sense of the word, the brain is capable of doing things hard to imagine. I will list here just a few, I will not say absolutely what it can do ... for starters, the human brain not only controls our entire body but can also program it, literally .. The human brain is able to stage a death fake or let's call it a coma for a few minutes. Specifically, the human brain is able to program the heart to stop on its own for a few minutes and then restart on its own. During this time, even the brain will cease a very large part of its functions, but a very small part of it will still be active, enough not to really die. Another function that the brain can have is to stop the function of the nerves, our brain is able to stop the functions of the nerves so that we no longer feel the pain. Also the human brain can control its own functions, meaning we can control the way our brain works, and from here there are many possibilities I will only give an example ... we can for example make the brain completely forget certain things as a kind of intentionally induced amnesia. Another function of the brain is to control the energy around us but also the weight of its body or more precisely it can control the way the gravity of the earth will react on us. So gravitational attraction will have a greater effect on us than usual. Related to the energies around us, the human brain is able to control the energy of living things such as ants, (I know it sounds SF. But it's true) the human brain can control the energy of small creatures, so insects. order the ants, beetles or other gangsters to do what we want. The problem is, we don't know how to do that. The roof of the mouth is capable of spitting saliva, throwing, shooting with saliva. There are many other things we are capable of, but we are still limited by the fact that we do not know how to control our body.
I hope that one day we will find a way to accept the capabilities of our body, and I hope that one day we will start using them.
Thank you for your attention.

Starting on July 1st, I have laid a budget, that I am going to adhere by. I made a spreadsheet, where I wrote my income and my expenditures, and when all is said and done, I will have money left. That's the benefit of moving to a place where I know my rent in advance. Where I have a flat fee to pay. I also came to realize, that I have too many streaming services. I spend $109 a month just on streaming. I need to look into cutting down on them.. But I need them all.. I might just keep them all, actually. They are pretty handy to have, and I will not run out of content anytime soon.

Now it's time for some money stuff! The biggest post I have, apart from rent, is my food budget. A massive $196 in total each month. What can I say, I am a foodie.. I am always looking for ways to improve my cooking.. Anyway.. I have three expensive months, and nine "cheap" months. The expensive months, I spend $1244, and on the "cheap months, I spend $1211. I get $1474 each month, so when all is paid, and I have put some money into savings, I will still have money left over. That's a first for me, since I used to spend all my money in 14 days.. Sometimes 7 days.. When I moved to Scotland, I got the biggest reality check ever, which I needed. Since then, I have been managing my money. Rarely have I fallen behind on bills, and it's almost six years ago since I came back home.

Speaking of saving up money.. My dream is to own a house. It doesn't matter where it is, as long as it's mine. Or maybe just an apartment somewhere. Apartments are cheaper than houses anyway.. But I would like to own some property one day. I am thinking with my trucking job, I can save up even more than I am now, because if I don't change my spending habits, I can comfortably send almost triple into my savings than what I do now.

But we'll see what happens. Right now, I plan to hold my budget for three years, minimum. I am sure it's doable!

This year has been the most crazy, dramatic, weird, upside down year ever.

I started a completely different job, from nursing for over 30 years to an IT company on the computer all day.

I went through a divorce that I had to sort out completely by myself.

Been "alone" for the first time in my life, discovering so much about what I actually like.

Found some amazing Men that I have loved, each for their own unique personalities.

I do believe in the saying "with you for a reason, a season or a lifetime", I have had parts of all these and been parts to others.

Until now I have always handed my whole self over and given all of me if I feel like this is the real thing, this is now changing and I am learning to have patience and wait, find out if it's real or something I want to be real.

If anyone wants to change me, I will now gently close the door and walk away, I like me again and "He" must do the same.

"He's" still out there but I now have a completely person/Woman to offer and deserve the same.
