I am fully alert.
I think I'll continue reading the Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck. I think I should not forgo reading. It surely is therapeutic.
I feel like listening to Secrets:
Maybe I hate Mark Manson because he reminds me of myself. I'll give him another chance. If after this I still hate him I start reading Unbroken.
Right now I feel like setting myself free, Just floating aimlessly like a plastic bag caught in a twirling gust.
I realized that while I need to [] (keep) shrinking my perimeters to the minimum, I need to expand my mental horizon. That means I can keep on adding to my personal experience or I expand my mind based on the experience of others. The best way to do that is by reading. I have so many books to read.
Not all books are worth reading. But if I am to follow Ray Bradbury's advice, I should keep reading as much as I can.
I enjoy writing to you Sarah. It is not so much an intellectual discourse as it is a casual conversation. I realized that with books I don't need to go through mindless acquisitions. For example I can read the 100 Legendary Knives and don't need to own 100 knives. I have so many books to read. One whole library of them.
What I should not do is let my mind vegetate. Writing to you keep me alert. I am learning every day. I learn new vocabulary, grammar and I learn to spell correctly. Of course I need to search for inspirations.
I figured I should totally do away with Tweeting TraXX. I'm just making a fool of myself. If I have a shred of self esteem left inside me, I should stop the crazy Tweets. After all I want to go for 3 years isolation.
My Google storage is running low. I might have to subscribe pretty soon.
------------------
The buying has to stop. I was a consumer all my life. Where does that get me? Nowhere... I tend to have things in access. So many things I do not use. Now, money is a different thing. MONEY CAN GROW! Things cannot grow. I sho[w] (should) seriously start saving money. Not for anything but for the sake of saving. For sure I need these things in the future:
- Biannual dental checkup
- A new PC every 5 years
- A new handphone every 5 years
- A running shoes every 3 years
- A nice meal every 3 months
- Going to the movies occasionally
Most importantly I should stop buying books. I should read eBooks. They are free.
Even with eBooks I should treat them as commodities. After I finish reading I just delete them. That saves me a lot of storage. I know it's a matter of time before I start subscribing to Google storage. I had utilized 80% of my storage capacity. The only way to do it is to delete the eBooks.
OK Sarah, I'm ready for tennis. Let's go easy today. After this I want to read. So I'll touch base with you again in the evening.
Bye darling...
