"I had a friend once who told me that the worst mistake that you can make is to think that you are alive, when really you're asleep in life's waiting room. The trick is to combine your waking, rational abilities with the infinite possibilities of your dreams, because if you can do that, you can do anything "
[Waking Life]
Supermarket shopping done. The car keys fixed. The car washed. Slept for over 10 hours in one take.. Watched TV. Nothing of interest though. No book left to read. No chores to be done. That’s my weekend gone. I wanted to write about my simple weekend in simple words. and looks like I've accomplished it. Pretty boring words for a pretty boring day... Surprisingly didn’t bother me. The other times I would never write an entry if I haven't got anything meaningful to say...Must be one of those moments in life, you’re your mind hibernates for a while before the hyper phase of crazy summer kicks in…
Thinking process also slowed down, degrading to the basics. Sometimes you think, but can not really identify your thoughts. It feels as if you are floating inside your thoughts, hence unable to see what they are in reality. I thought of something subtle and uncertain, but could not quite catch the thought…something about being close to one another and being distant the same time…then I remembered I’ve already had this thought in the past…so there is really no point to re-think the thought you've thought about already...I wrote on 24th of April 2003:
We like to build our own world and live in sand castles, we've created. It's like an - obsession - the more imagination you use, more unreal world become around you and lesser you wish to break it back into the real one. It is "virtually" safer in there - against any logical arguments, but it does fits me well. Guess, everyone has his Sand Castle in personal design. That's why, perhaps, we always - strangers to each other's inner little worlds, but - neighbours - in the world of dreams…
I think, I want to go and see that Brokeback Mountain movie - I've downloaded its soundtrack and liked it very much. That hasn't got anything to do with what's written above, by the way, just a random thought, happenned while I was typing...(and you can see how thoughts that come into our unsuspected mind do so very accidentally indeed)
