The World of Lie

Beginning the blog I declared that it was possible to feel joy everyday. It was really so. Sure, everyone feels joy every day. But sometimes there's so little joy in the day... I started feeling that sometimes I lie posting in the blog. Why? I didn't say any lie! But there were times when I wrote something not important when I wasn't happy at all.

Despite the fact I would continue writing about the joys if I didn't feel another thing. All the idea is a way to lie to myself. Things are not always so good. Writing about joy helps to forget about sad things, not good things, awful things. And then it doesn't cure but accumulates problems.

I'm not going to finish the blog, now. But I'm not going to write any sweet stuff here anymore.

Jan 11, 2010 - Joe Instead John After a Talk With Your Boss ;)

Oh!

What pretty bad days there came!

Today, I had a terrible talk with the director! And what kind of joy did it give to me?

I came home, and switched on my walkman, and listened to a piece of music by Joe Hisaishi! It was Summer.

Joe's music is great!

So, don't go to the john to cry, to see into your wet ice in the mirror. It's silly to follow the sweet movies' advise. Just change your mood immidiately. (By the way, you've got to be strong to change everything done wrong, haven't you?)

Dec 27, 2009 - Walking

Sure, walking can change the world. They say, centuries ago the world was better... I think, it was that because people walked much more then.

Walking is one of the best ways to overcome bad mood. But my advise is to return after walk to a different place. I mean, not there where the source of your bad mood is or even was, but to somewhere else.

It's great if there's a place where you can always stay for a night (alone or with someone). The worst thing here is if the sourse is at your own home, and you don't have such a place or you've gotta return home because of some other reason.

So, the moral of this is that you have to take care of such kind of place, where you could always stay alone after any conflict, and that you should always try to walk when you've got low spirits.

P.S. The photo evokes the feeling of changing the life to the better as you walk from turn to turn.
