Just like Terra Nova

Ok ok,

Lots of people go through rough times. You maybe have gone through a rough time yourself or someone you know may have. A little bird once told me that when people are going through bad patches, they tend to appreciate anything thrown at them. This “anything” includes badly home made sandwiches, stale non alcoholic beer and a dead dog for a pet.

There’re just so many things that we have no control over. Things that we can’t decide over. Things that we can’t change. Things that we can’t stop from happening. Things that we can’t turn around. Things that we can’t help. Things we can’t do anything but throw our hands skyward and ask “Why Me?”.

Life has taught me to be open-minded about many things. Accept the facts, easy or hard. Accept the truth, painful or not. Accept it, whether you want to or not and to move on after that. We have to keep moving on no matter what happens. They say to keep moving is to be alive. I can’t tell with certainty who “they” are, but i have a pretty good idea this time. In truth we can move on even if we lose something so precious that we think we couldn’t live without but it’s just that it would be too painful to move on. But if we do move on, someday you’ll turn back and feel much stronger, with no regrets. This is the point where we will pause and appreciate the mind control exercises practiced by the Jedi.

To put things in perspective without sounding overly condescending, in reality there is only the present, because the past no longer exists and the future does not exist yet. Of the past, only selective images exist. Just what the mind wants to and can retain. And of the future there can be only fear or hope, whichever is your cup of tea. The future, like the past, is but an ‘extension’ of our minds. The mind cannot comprehend an existence locked in stasis and so the past and the future are coping mechanisms.

Children have neither past nor future; they enjoy the present, which very few of us do.

Cheers.

Archtomato

Archtomato . OxyMoron .
Laughing at Gilded Butterflies

Archtomato works in the IT security industry and has managed to convince his bosses for the past 10 years that his best work is yet to come.

Archtomato is a coffee nut, a photographer without focus, a traveler who can't read maps, a diver who floats all too easily and a champion of world peace.

He is an avid practitioner of the dark side of the force; admires Chuck Norris, Paris Hilton and collects vintage Batman comics. Just like the Horizon, Time Dilation, Flying pigs, Tax Reliefs and possibly, the "Opposition", he believes he is more of a concept than a corporeal being.

Archtomato believes that the true nature of man is decided in the battle between the conscious mind and the desires of the subconscious and that the evil of man's subconscious is often too strong to resist. The only way to win is to deny it battle.

He now lives in a world of pollution, profanity, adolescence, smelly beavers, zits, herpes, broccoli, racism, ozone depletion, sexism, conscription, yellow bananas, stupid people, nightmares, dog whisperers,Gamma Ray Bursts, Nuke Baddies and sings badly but regularly in the bathroom.
