More specifically about my life.
Every now and then an event happens that makes me think about my life, how's it been, how is it now and how will it go on.
This time the trigger was http://topdocumentaryfilms.com/kymatica/ which is your usual conspiracy/alternative fantasy "documentary".
And what better time than the start of a new decade!
So!
Slowly i'm realizing what my life values and interests are becoming permanent.
Let's start by
Health:
-In the past i generally didn't give a **** about it, now it's coming to bite me in the ass.
-Now i'm alot more careful and starter doing healthier habits (less trash food, sleeping on the floor, exercising, don't do stupid shit you know it will **** you up)
-Plan to practice healthy habits and same carefulness if not more than now
Job:
-In the past i didn't work for money alot and i generally wanted to be successful
-Now i'd rather like a job that is "less" paid but also less stressful and gives you more free time (right now i have two jobs that fit with said, i also self consciously turned down a potentially lucrative job which would be very demanding)
-For the future...i think this practice suits me well, but of course this field is very uncertain
Relationships:
-In the past had some serious and some casual relationships (nothing to brag about)
-Right now i'm single and pretty lonely if not almost miserable (need to improve here)
-Yeah... a family is not something i think about that much, need sex urgently! :naughty:
Friendships:
-neglecting friends because of girlfriend in the past
-Old friendships stabilized
-NO girlfriend is worth neglecting friends!!!!!!
Sport:
-Always been a regular
-I still am
-Yep, this is a keeper
Music:
-I knew i liked it but never focused too much
-I'm becoming very active (barely a day goes without listening to it, playing guitar, creating music)
-Has great potential to become a permanent habit
Hobbies (creativity):
-I always made stuff (either mechanical, computer stuff,...)
-I'm considering starting blacksmithing again
-I hope i'll have time in the future to do shit
NEWER LIFE GUIDELINES
Self reliance:
-I was always questioning my decisions
-I want to be as much as reasonably possible self reliant (as in off the grid, grow food yourself, energy,...)
-My future plans would be modest (lol)
Note: i think the only non violent way to not be a conformist sheep is to relay on yourself rather than on the government/society.
Practically i mean to achieve this by:
-Growing non-bulk food myself (vegetables, fruits)
-Continue to use wood as a primarily heat source (we own some forests)
-Keep energy waste down (insulation, low energy lights/appliances)
-If photovoltaic panels become really cheap i might consider them since we live in a generally sunny region.
-Give up on the latest technology (if not limiting my basic needs) and wasteful transportation (that wouldn't be so hard since i'm not a big fan of them in the first place->my main PC is 6 years old and my mobile phone is 4 years old)
I think that sums it up for now, bare in mind that these are just general trends and guidelines...it's not something i'll change over night. Hell, it took me all this time to just figure it out. Even if it seems too much it really is not, most of you probably have the same palette but not really think about it.
And most importantly...i'm not trying to be self righteous.
You're welcome to share yours, or laugh at me...whichever suits you better. :thumbs:
