Dreams

Ok, scap cam greu de obsesia mea dar promit ca pana la finalul acestui post o sa gasesc o alta melodie si o voi atasa, asa, cado!

Ce mi-a mai atras atentia in seara asta? Pai uite versurile astea:

“Tell Me What You Know About Dreamin’ Dreamin’
You Don’t Really Know About Nothin’ Nothin’
Tell Me What You Know About Them Night Terrors Every Night
5 Am Cold Sweats Wakin’ Up To The Skies”

Si nu, nu voi sta sa le analizez dar ascultand melodia asta acum, inainte de culcare, am ajuns la o concluzie:

Cat de tare ar fi sa ne putem propune si sa reusim sa visam ce vrem noi. Programarea viselor as vedea-o ca in Total Recall, filmul cu gagica cu 3 sani si nu numai.

Actiunea se petrece in viitor unde lipsa timpului liber a inlocuit vacantele reale cu amintiri artificiale, implantate in memoria clientului. Eh, si detaliile acestor aventuri erau potrivite in detaliu de catre vanzatorul de amintiri, in conformitate cu dorintele exprimate de catre cumparator. Cam asta e povestea pe foarte scurt.

Dar sa revenim la vise, pana nu ma scufund si eu intr-unul.

Totul a pornit de la ciudata mea dorinta din seara asta de a trece printr-un cosmar. Unul care sa ma faca sa transpir tot si sa ma trezeasca tipand sau eventual plangand ca un bebelus. Si am realizat ca probabil, azi, va fi o seara ca toate celelalte, cu vise plictisitoare si cel mult usor aberante.

Vreau sa am o aplicatie pe mobil care sa imi seteze visele pe care urmeaza sa le am, desi probabil ca patch-ul pentru cosmaruri m-ar costa o avere. Imaginati-va o casca de dus, plina cu electrozi conectata la mufa audio a telefonului, o aplicatie compatibila atat Symbian, iOS, Android dar si Maemo, un pat si pe tine. Ai visa tot ce vrei tu, pana la cel mai mic detaliu. Desigur pentru cei aventurosi, puteti sa folositi functia: shuffle. In definitiv, uneori vrei doar sa visezi ceva, orice.

Ca orice aplicatie de pe piata, normal ca va exista si varianta “demo”. Dezavantajele utilizarii acestei versiuni includ cateva bug-uri precum udarea patului in timpul noptii. Totodata, folosirea acestei variante va insemna ca sunteti de acord cu reclamele plasate discret in desfasurarea viselor. Dorintele arzatoare de a achizitiona un produs de care nu ati auzit inca sunt frecvente si de neoprit.

Eu cred ca exista o piata pentru aceste produse iar singurul obstacol este unul minor: inventarea dispozitivului minune. Parca si vad reclamele la Teleshoping:))

Si melodia,

credeati ca am uitat?

Vise placute, norocosilor:P

The Pursuit of Happines

For once, I’ll try to write a post in English. I don’t really know why, but what the hell…anything that gets me to post sooner is a good enough reason, right?

So another new thing I’m trying to do tonight is using a title that has something to do with what I’m writing about.

The “The Pursuit of Happiness” is actually the title of a song I’m a bit obsessed about these last couple of days.

Although I’m not a big fan of rap, I really like this song and a few others by this Kid Cuddy guy. A Youtube comment even got stuck in my mind. It reads something like “Kid Cuddy is not a rapper, he’s an artist”

Well, I’m not really sure about that but who am I to judge?

What I like most is this part right here:

“I’m On The Pursuit Of Happiness
And I Know Everything
That Shines Ain’t Always Gonna Be Gold
I’ll Be Fine Once I Get It; I’ll Be Good”

And  so, as I normally do, I started to make connections between this chorus and what people aim for in life.

Then I remembered my number one motto. The thing I try most to live by: No one is the same! So I don’t even try to categorize people. That’s why in my posts, I usually talk about myself, and the stuff I realize over the years.

I started the process again, only now, the only subject I’m analyzing is me.

And I guess this whole idea of chasing happiness, while avoiding the things that stand in your way, is kinda my goal too.

It’s easy to get distracted by things that seem important but actually are just obstacles in your development. But then again, aren’t all the decisions you make part of your development? I mean, without the luxury of seeing the aftermath before you act, can you really say that you’re making the right choice? I say you can’t, but it’s really important to keep in mind that “not everything is gonna be gold”. That way you will be prepared when, the shit hits the fan and you do the wrong thing. And you will.

Before I quit bugging you with this stupid interpretation of a rap chorus, I would like to ask another rhetorical question, like the many before in this post: Once you get it, will you be happy? I mean, my understanding of the human mind leads me to believe that once you get it, you will want a bit more…to be just a bit happier. So…it’s ironic: do you want to be happy if you know that it will only lead to problems you never even thought about until now?

Let’s just try to be pleased! I mean, it’s a milder adjective, and for me it implies enjoying the smaller joys in life, being contempt with what you are able to achieve and stop giving yourself a hard time for things you are never going to be able to change.

I say contempt, but, by no means do I suggest that you shouldn’t aim higher…you should, I do! But some things will always be out of your reach and worrying about it will only make you unhappy.

Contrary to what you may believe, this post does try to only refer to me, but if you identify yourself with my random ideas…maybe it refers to you too. Who knows:)

Good Night!
