In My Water

Chinese philosophy

2009-01-12T06:55:00.000-08:00

It seems strange. I wished to write about those cases which has happened with me today. Cases when you want to name the drivers idiots. So strange they behaved themselves on road. But having thought properly I decided. In ancient Chinese philosophy there is such thought. If you speak about something so this mean that you support about these thoughts - you want this or not. Even if you abuse something - the part of your energy leaves on maintenance of that person for example which you discuss. For this reason I have decided not to write anything that i've just seen on road. I do not want to support them.
So I will write only about the good. Always to speak and think only about good and all will be super!

My Phone

2008-07-09T06:32:00.000-07:00

The fact that I don't have a phone is quite unexpected by me, the funny thing is that I've wondered all day long how is this possible that no one calls me? Only after I have searched my bag realized that I have lost it this morning. I am not going to buy a new one at the moment. Maybe after I'll come back I'll decide which one to choose from Apple 3G and Samsung - i 900, of course if the price will not be the same as of a notebook.

Summer Holiday

2008-07-09T05:25:00.000-07:00

I am packing up my things, as on Saturday I'm going in Summer vacation. The most important thing for me at the moment is to be happy and enjoy the trip. In order to do this i have to control my inner energy as Chinese teachers of martial arts do.
My trainer says that I still have a lot of things to learn, I want to do everything that he learns me, and I hope this trip will gonna help me. I will be there late in the evening but I want very much to go this tour, in general I want to spend this vacation very active.
Of course I will not manage to visit all the places, as I do not have enough time for this besides this is not my purpose. I want to change all my life and this require power and energy.
The results will show up after I come back, now I am mettlesome for everything.

Traveling

2008-07-01T23:44:00.000-07:00

My friends just returned from Caribbean sea with a lot of impressions and of course a lot of photos. I find this marvelous but such kind of trips are not for me. Thou I like Caribbean sea very much I don't think I'll enjoy staying all day long on the boat, with the sun burning on my head, I like to walk and wonder through different places, from all the countries China is the one I would like to visit the most I even imagine myself having a walk along the Big wall of China if I'll have such a chance I would not even comeback to the hotel at night, Also I would like to visit Santorini, there in order to go to the sea side you have to get down on very long stairs and in order to return to the hotel you must get up on them, next day your feet will be aching so bad like after skiing. I like to move rather than stay.

2008-07-01T07:30:00.000-07:00

I like sports, Incredible where people can get up to!!!

2008-07-01T02:34:00.000-07:00

I just read what I wrote few days ago about my wishes and understood that actually I want two things: to be healthy and able to lead with my emotions.
The first one - To be healthy, was caused be the fact that yesterday I spent few hours at the dentist's surgery I will not describe what I had passed through there. Concerning the second desire - of being able to lead with my emotions, well this is a more interesting subject. I noticed that as soon as I begin to worry about something I loose the power to control myself.
I still dream about traveling to Japan also i would like to go for a few days in Ayia Napa and this is quite workable but due to the fact that at the moment there are high temperatures I will not go, can't stand dog days.
Sea is something wonderful! But this weather is killing everything around. Of course the best way to enjoy maritime beauties is to buy a yacht and float to a place where the sun is more friendly.

Colours

2008-06-19T06:24:00.000-07:00

Make up is an art, it takes talent and a precise imagination to emphasize that part of the face or body in the way you want other people to see it, because when you look at some beautiful red lips usually you think about the person who wears them that is elegant, extravagant or exotic, red is a color that provokes, so does each color, creates an effect to your eye, mind and imagination.
Did you ever ask your self why the sky is made blue and the leaves green? I did, and do not know if my answer is right, this is the reason i will not tell it.

Music

2008-06-09T01:53:00.000-07:00

I like music of all types, even at work i can not do my job without music. Most of all I like Sade, and Enigma. I met people who do not like music, they are very rare. Yesterday i traveled out of town and forgot to change the batteries to may MP.3 player, at half of the road the music stopped i felt so bad because of this, i think i become addicted.

Wish

2008-06-09T00:09:00.000-07:00

I want a new mobile phone, a car and red shoes
I want them so much...
I want to go in Hawaii or Japan possible in Protaras but this is not so interesting, i want something exotic. I want to eat in a restaurant where is served sea food. I want to jump with parachute.
I do not want to sit at home prepare food and after a i eat to clean the table. I do not want to go at work and walk in common transport. I'm gonna change my job to that of the student of a wizard, then i will do all that i want.

Books

2008-06-06T06:33:00.000-07:00

I come back from a long vacation, during it I read a book that want to talk about
The subject is a plane couth by terrorists, what I learned from it is that they think different because they grow up in a world where you have to kill for living, or there maybe another explanation, that they just can not find what the sense of life is, and decided that life has no sense at all.
What do you think? I just try to understand better what causes such an attitude towards life and death.

2008-03-27T20:56:00.000-07:00

Getting a light from this man you can be left without eyebrows. )))

2008-02-28T20:11:00.001-08:00

Why everything is so difficult in this world? I know that my friend has financial difficulties now and I do not understand why this happens. Why good people are compelled to go for any work and all the same they catastrophically do not have enough money. Help, God, to everyone who asks you!

My Friend's Wedding

2008-02-07T19:59:00.000-08:00

My friend has on this Saturday an event of huge importance – it will be her wedding.
She has got acquainted with her boy-friend almost half a year back in Italy. He is a handsome guy.
I am so glad about them! Today I shall go to buy a wedding gift. After a couple of weeks they will leave first for London in their wedding journey, and then they will cruise by a huge ship. It is a pity only, that then they will depart to Italy and we shall meet only in the summer.
My congratulations to future young marrieds!

middle of the winter

2008-01-22T20:05:00.000-08:00

It’s already the middle of the winter. And this is so good - as spring will come soon!
My wish now is to buy tickets and to depart somewhere to a silent place. I want a lake nearby or it is even better - falls.
My dreams. We most likely will go in the summer to our friends on a visit and we will sadly wander on vicinities.
The most pleasant will be sitting in a pub.
Why this happens in my life – I want such things that are unattainable for me, but at the same time I don’t want those things that I can easy to get?!

2007-12-24T20:17:00.000-08:00

I wish you a Merry Christmas and happy New Year!
I wish you every success! Be happy!

It’s a good idea!

2007-12-09T20:15:00.000-08:00

A man can be a fool even without knowing that, but only if he is not married.

I absolutely disagree...

2007-11-21T20:26:00.000-08:00

I absolutely disagree with Melden that people are afraid to fly by planes. I think, there are few of such people. The majority of people presently spend almost all their forces and time for earning money with the purpose to spend them for their pleasures. I don’t speak certainly about Africa and other poor countries where many people just have nothing to eat.

But person’s fear is before something unknown, unidentified. I for example can be easily persuaded to dive to the seabed or even to do some flying in a spacecraft of aliens. The prospect to lose my job is frightening me more! Americans for example continue to spend huge money for entertainments and for Iraq war, but very few people from them worry that the huge economic problem is already knocked on their door!

2007-11-04T03:03:00.001-08:00

That’s a joyous life! Probably it would be profitable only to insurance companies if to shoot a movie or to write a book about this person.

I'm fine...

2007-10-18T20:06:00.000-07:00

It’s an auto-suggestion. I do not love changes - when my life goes not under the plan. I do not like, when something unexpected happens. Probably in my previous life I was a frog and lived in a bog....

Fearless

2007-10-04T20:36:00.000-07:00

2007-09-19T20:17:00.000-07:00

Today my daughter categorically refused music lesson. It was a jolly morning. I had to give a educative talk and everything has took its place.

Today I have found a buyer for my old car. If I’ll have luck I’ll sell it till the end of this week. Unfortunately I have to part with it.

Good Santorini Hotels

2007-09-05T20:30:00.000-07:00

My daughter saw today a terrible dream. It was something frightful with worms. But the most important was that in the morning she saw a good dream and consequently we have met morning in good mood.

But I had to spend several hours to find a site on Santorini hotels with prices for 2008.

This is a real disease for Greece! There are almost no prices for the next year and everybody is sent to the spring when there will not be places in good Santorini and Mykonos hotels. And this happens every year.

In general, it seems to me that Greeks do not know how to get rid of tourists that come and come!

Who knows, may be my daughter will fly for her holiday somewhere to Mars:)

2007-08-30T20:36:00.000-07:00

Today my daughter had a very good music lesson. I am happy, because her last three lessons were just terrible! I talked to her last night and today in the morning. I tried to dispose her. Probably I’ve managed to do that and therefore today is a very good day!

However it is very important to find necessary and kind words!

It's Over

2007-08-16T06:23:00.000-07:00

So my holiday has come to the end. It is a pity.

But I have firmly decided to reconsider my working schedule to make work more effectively. It is necessary to reconstruct my work for more free time which I wish to devote to my son.

He needs more and more time and care. I think, I will manage to do everything on the highest level!

2007-07-30T20:11:00.000-07:00

Today I have read through this article about how difficult is invalids’ life.

It is just severe so to act like that. It’s ok when healthy people pay money for the goods or services - they always have a choice. I, for example, never drive on free-of-charge roads and do not buy cheap products. But to rook invalids in such way is improbably impudently. They do not have choice unless absolutely to cancel a trip.

There is not enough kindness and care to feeble in our world.

Probably for these people money is the most important thing in the world!

The Wolf and the Goat

2007-07-20T20:30:00.000-07:00

There was once a goat who built herself a little house in the woods and gave birth to a family of kids. The mother goat would often go out to seek for food, and the kids would lock the door behind her and never so much as show their noses outside. The mother goat would come back, knock at the door and sing out:

"My kiddies own, my children dear,

Open the door, for your mother is here!

By a stream I walked, on a grass-grown bank,

Of fresh grass I ate, of cool water drank;

I bring you milk which is rich and sweet,

It runs from my udder down to my feet!"

The kids would open the door and let in their mother, the mother goat would feed them and go off to the woods again, and they would lock the door behind her just as they had before.

Now, the wolf heard the mother goat call to her kids, and one day when she had just gone out, he stole up to the house and cried in his gruff voice:

"My kiddies own, my children dear,

Open the door, for your mother is here.

I bring you milk which is rich and sweet,

It runs from my udder down to my feet!"

And the kids called back: "We hear you, whoever you are, but that isn't our mother's voice. Mother's voice is thin and sweet and the words she says are different." The wolf went away and hid himself, and after a while the mother goat came back home. She knocked at the door and sang out:

"My kiddies own, my children dear,

Open the door, for your mother is here!

By a stream I walked, on a grass-grown bank,

Of fresh grass I ate, of cool water drank;

I bring you milk which is rich and sweet,

It runs from my udder down to my feet!"

The kids let in their mother and told her about the wolf and about how he had wanted to eat them up. The mother goat fed the kids, and, before leaving for the woods, told them very sternly indeed that if anyone came to the house, asked to be let in in a gruff voice and not used the very same words as she they were not to let him in on any account. She had no sooner left than the wolf came running up. He knocked at the door and sang out in a thin little voice:

"My kiddies own, my children dear,

Open the door, for your mother is here.

By a stream I walked, on a grass-grown bank,

Of fresh grass I ate, of cool water drank;

I bring you milk which is rich and sweet,

It runs from my udder down to my feet!"

The kids opened the door, and the wolf rushed in and gobbled them all up save for one little kid who had crawled into the stove and hidden himself there.

By and by the mother goat came home, but call and shout as she would no one answered her. She gave the door a push, and seeing that it was unlocked, ran inside. The house was empty, but she glanced into the stove, and lo!—found one little kid there. Great was the mother goat's grief when she heard what had happened to her children. Down she dropped on the bench and began sobbing loudly, saying over and over again:

"O my children dear, î my kiddies own,

Why did I ever leave you alone?

For the wicked wolf you opened the door,

Never, I fear, will I see you more!"

The wolf heard her, and, coming into the house, said: "Why do you make me out to be such a villain, Mistress Goat? I would never eat your kids! Do not grieve but come for a walk in the woods with me." "No, Mister Wolf, I'm in no mood for a walk." "Please come, please!" the wolf begged.

They went to the woods and soon came to a hole in the ground with a fire burning in it. It had been used by some robbers for cooking gruel in and they had not doused the flames. "Come, Wolf, let us see which of us can jump over the hole!" said the mother goat. To this the wolf agreed. He leapt across, but tripped and fell into the fire. His belly burst open from the heat, and out the kids hopped, safe and sound, and ran straight to their mother. And they lived happily ever after. The wiser from year to year they grew and never a day of misfortune knew.

Australia

2007-07-03T07:44:00.000-07:00

I support Australian aboriginals. Besides the fact that they have lost their lands and the government force them to live as it wants they don’t have any possibility to choose. When people have a choice they become more kind.

2007-06-29T20:43:00.001-07:00

Finally yesterday I’ve understood how to make pictures with my new camera! Often happens that I want to make a picture of one thing but something in front of that thing hinders me. For example to photograph a parrot in a cage - the cage is always hindering. But yesterday I’ve managed to do I wanted. It’s so nice to realize that I can achieve that I’ve planned.

Rodos

2007-06-23T03:42:00.000-07:00

Yesterday my old friend called me up. We have met last time long time ago. He’s moved to Rodos (Rhodos). He is very glad and happy that he lives there in his old age. And now I became very interested in this island. I want to find more pictures about it in the internet.

2007-06-12T20:37:00.000-07:00

My friend has shown her page ad I want to make something like that too.

2007-06-01T20:50:00.000-07:00

Finally I started my account in this eShop. I like it!

2007-05-25T01:59:00.000-07:00

This Santorini picture is wonderful! Thank you Timfarmer!

Athens

2007-05-22T05:34:00.000-07:00

What an ineteresting picture on blog, are you going to post more?

2007-05-11T02:54:00.000-07:00

Adin opened new blog! That's great!

How We Spend Our Money

2007-04-13T01:16:00.000-07:00

Finally we have collected enough money to buy a new car instead of our old Ford. It’s interesting what for people spend the most part of their money? Is that such expensive cars or may be they pay a lot for the fuel. Or may be people spend more money for clothes? But I think most probably we spend too much for food. Or may be this is something else?

my future trip to London

2007-03-17T01:39:00.000-07:00

Very soon I’ll go on a conference in London. My boss always books rooms in the Novotel City South hotel, but this time this hotel is fully booked. So he has booked another hotel – the Mostyn hotel. As I know this hotel is better then another one. But in general this is unimportant. But what is really important is that I will have a possibility to see my friend! I haven’t seen her from school. Finally I will talk to her not through the internet but may be somewhere in a small London café. I also want to see her daughter so I have to buy some presents for them.

microbes

2007-03-06T22:30:00.000-08:00

Today my daughter asked me about the microbes. Children have been scared at the kindergarten with saying that those who does not wash hands have thousands and even millions microbes on hands.
Well, in fact they could have explained what the microbes are.
And how to explain that some of them are not harmful for us but instead useful.
Those ones, for instance, inhabiting our bowels, but how did they get there if not from the dirty hands?
Well, I am lucky the school is only in some years.

Appropriate Mobile Phone.

2007-02-12T01:03:00.001-08:00

I have chosen one good mobile phone after searching the whole of the Internet and visiting a lot of shops. Everybody tells a story about how good is that or another phone.

Somebody needs a phone with good camera; another needs a phone with big memory size. But I’m interested in a phone that will let me know about discharged battery in low tones and not yelling in the middle of the night!

I haven’t found any mobile phone with that function to be settled. It’s a real problem for me!
