"If I Were Able to Live My Life Anew"
"If I were able to live my life anew, in the next I would try to commit more errors. I would not try to be so perfect, I would relax more. I would be more foolish than I've been, in fact, I would take few things seriously.
I would be less hygienic. I would run more risks, take more vacations, contemplate more sunsets, climb more mountains, swim more rivers. I would go to more places where I've never been, I would eat more ice cream and fewer beans, I would have more real problems and less imaginary ones.
I was one of those people that lived sensibly and prolifically each minute of his life; Of course I had moments of happiness. If I could go back I would try to have only good moments. Because if you didn't know, of that is life made: only of moments; Don't lose the now.
I was one of those that never went anywhere without a thermometer, a hot-water bottle, an umbrella, and a parachute; If I could leave again, I would travel lighter. If I could live again, I would begin to walk barefoot until autumn ends. I would take more cart rides, contemplate more dawns, and play with more children, If I had another life ahead of me.
But already you see, I am 85, and I know that I am dying."

If I don't do it then nobody will.
I waited and waited and tried different lifestyles, just to realise that I can change, that I am able to adapt.
But what I love most is probably just marketing, plain comercial sh*t ,as cheap as it sound as cliche it is.
Now I have to live with it, do most @ it. Change the opinion, help to promote ideas that really matters.
WORK HARD. EVERYDAY. Don't stop.
Actually keep going, keep innovating. Keep pushing me, thing around me, people who let me.
I was thinking for a long time about our world, that it has to change. That it is not right.
There should't be suffering, injustice, corporate greed, child's hunger.
I can't let go.
But still stick I am in a corporate job. Yes still I am. This confession is for me, to push myself.
To where I 've never been before, but always dreamt to be.
My world is mine.
I was waiting for my chance.
Just one person in my life told me that I was a marketing type, always non-conform. I was already 22 or so.
Last year 3 more people confirmed as well. I guess marketing is not popular or nice word to say.
Everybody hates it.
Great, that makes it easier on me.
No, I believe it is not that easy to be a great marketer. It is not.
You have to be smart, new, energetic, emphatic and hard working.
I take it from here & now.
Born in 1981 in communism, realised who I was in 2010 in changing times in economy.

Be proud of who you are
Should be natural though.
It is the same with loving yourself before waiting or expecting that others will love you first or more than you do.
I think things start from here.
I had to add this definition from answers.com of the word "yourself".
pron.
That one identical with you: Used reflexively as the direct or indirect object of a verb or as the object of a preposition: Did you buy yourself a gift? very acurrate now :)
Your normal or healthy condition: Are you feeling yourself again?
ARE YOU FEELING YOURSELF AGAIN?
What do you say?

Why XMAS doesn't matter to me
But shopping, yes they care, yes they spend unnecessary money, time, energy, because they are worth the worthless products made in China.
There is something fundamentally wrong.
It might be the media, it might be the corporate marketing.
I want to change the world a bit.
I really want to.
Hope you do too.

A relaxed mind is a creative mind
I was always an outsider who knew a lot about everybody else, but was not interested in them
I see potential for me everywhere I look.
Of course I like to look into places I like.
See the world through my eyes, my worldview.
I hope you share few things with me.
Like cubicle jobs are not for confident and creative people, who have their own opinion, their own ideas.
Who like to think a lot.
Everyday about something new.
Therefore:
Don't stop to believe.
Don't stop to dream.
Don't stop to think.
First post
Have to blogg.
Need to connect to same-minded people.
Can't live without them.
Can't live without you.
I have a need to communicate things that I truly care and believe in.
Hope this will enable me to be happy and satisfied.
