My first thought thought is commonly. ...



........

mine is 'seriously again? I have to wake up....?'

Life is like wearing a backpack and walking through a large open field strewn with rocks. Some of those rocks are very big and others are small.

Our journey in life is the field, the rocks are our problems and the backpack is what we do with those problems.

Everytime we have a problem we have to pick up one of those rocks and put it into our backpack and carry it around with us.

Every time we deal with a problem, resolve an issue, correct a mistake, etc., we get to remove a rock from our backpack and throw it back onto the ground.

The object of life is to reach the other side of that field with an empty backpack.

My first thought is always to make sure fields are clear of rocks so sheep don't trip up on them.

I hear ya Fred... ain't nothin worse than a sheep stubbing it's dainty cloven hoof.

I contemplate the realm of the pure forms but, if his other stuff is anything to go by, it'll be a pile of old rubbish.
I mean, really, The same daft dude defined old age as:

A great sense of calm and freedom. When the passions have relaxed their hold, you have escaped, not from one master but from many.

Rubbish - I fully intend for my more extreme passions in total control until I snuff it of old age or get shot by a sheep farmer.

Anyway; if you want to do a bit of real thinking, you must train your mind first.
You may wish to call it meditation or whatever else you like but the goal is to order your mind as you would tidy a room.
Let's be straight; you can't work at your office desk if it's full of rubbish and the leftovers from the curry you ordered last night.

You have to keep your mind tidy if you want it to work reasonably.
You don't need to sit in darkened room, nor stick your legs in some daft position that makes it impossible to go to the toilet in case of emergency (after the afore mentioned curry) but you do need to look into your own mind, not blunder about with a couple of bits of it as most people do.

Allow your mind to control your heart rate and blood pressure (That part is great fun when you want to really annoy a doctor doing a 'well man' examination) and allow your consciousness to live outside your physical form.

Only when you achieve that, can you start to think.

Tart (Charles, not the sort you visit on a Saturday evening after a skin full of booze and another curry), wrote a few interesting books on the subject.
Have a read when you get a free moment.

PS - I must apologise of I sounded intelligent for a moment back there.
In fact I'm somewhere between a Philistine and a Vandal or Genghis Khan with a headache.

Here's a thought - Imagine Genghis Khan with a headache.
No paracetamol back then so I would imagine he would have been a dude to seriously avoid.

Today's thought: the people of EB can take a one word OP and turn it into a full discussion.

thinking about what should i think about thinking

You should be thinking about ice cream, chunky monkey, specifically.

Wow...you know me so well,Hailey

When it comes to ice crea, it's just common sense, really.

Well..I just wanna make it looks cute!

I though, why am I awake?
It was because I wanted  pee pee.
Back to bed now.

Get high get pissed afterall its TGIF and everything will be fine

My today's thought is to have fun in mall but sadly going alone again hehehe

I had two thought today and both cost me cash.
That's real, hard, stinking, love of it is the root of all evil, cash.

My first was after a breakfast in McD's.
I usually eat a rather pleasant portion of bubur ayam but there was a massive queue this morning and I couldn't be bothered to wait so ate a sausage Mc thing instead.
Anyway, upon riding out of the car park on my very gay looking scooter with a windscreen, I saw an old girl (must be at least 80), still working by collecting plastic bottles.
Oh, I pondered, I've just eaten an indescribable meal that probably cost more than she earns in a week so I stopped, asked her directions to somewhere I knew anyway and slipped her a bank note by way of a thank you for helping me.
The second foolish thought can just over the road but a few hours later.
There was an old girl, pushing a home made wooden trolley with a really old girl in it.
I stopped again and did the same daft trick.
That made today a bit expensive.

My thought. I must be a better capitalist and allow people to live in suffering so I can be richer.

hhhmmmm well, my thought today is, why mas fred is  thinking always about white sheeps?

Forget about the past.  You can't change it.
Forget about the future.  You can't predict it.
Forget about the present.  I didn't get you one.

think nothing to think then..

Just like when I concentrate to lose my concentration?
