When Gerdi smiles,
you feel ecstasy,
your chest expands,
with love, uncut.
When Gerdi smiles,
you run to him,
to hold that smile,
to take it everywhere,
as proof of happiness.

the printer
soft gray with a few dark spots
sleek design with bumpy areas
it works well when u treat it gently
if you overwork it, it jams up
it speaks only when you initiate conversation
it has buttons you can push
ink runs out, needs to be filled again
it has holes for breathing
u have to know how to work it
once u know, it's simple
each one is slightly different

amazing video about the brain
This is an 18 minute long piece on how the two halves of the human
brain work, told in a profoundly moving first-person story by a
Harvard research neurologist who had a stroke and lived to tell the
fascinating story.

You have probably never pictured what it means to have a stroke/hemoragji cerebrale. Here is it with more clarity than I ever thought possible. This is just too amazing to pass by.

Fear vs. Love
...
Every action taken by human beings is based in love or fear, not simply those dealing with relationships.
Decisions affecting business, industry, politics, religion, the education of our young, the social agenda of our nations, the econimic goals of your society, choices involving war, peace, attack, defense, aggression, submission; determinations to covet or give away, to save or to share, to unite or to divide - every single free choice you ever undertake arises out of one of the only two possible thoughts there are: a thought of love or a thought of fear.
Fear is the energy which contracts, closes down, draws in, runs, hides, hoards, harms.
Love is the eneergy which expands, opens up, sends out, stays, reveals, shares, heals.
Fear wraps our bodies in clothing, love allws us to stand naked. Fear clings to and clutches all that we have, love gives all that we have away. Fear holds close, love holds dear. Fear grasps, love lets go. Fear rankles, love soothes. Fear attacks, love amends.
Every human thought, word, or deed is based in one emotion or the other. You have no choice about this, because there is nothing else from which to choose. But you have free choice about which of these to select.

the quality of the steps you take...
I found this interesting:
...
Let’s say that you are a business person and after two years of intense stress and strain you finally managed to come out with a product or service that sells well and makes money. Success???!!! In conventional terms yes.
In reality you spend two years polluting your body as well as the earth with negative energy. You made yourself and everyone around you, miserable. And you affected many others you never even met. The opinion of the masses is that success is a future event, and the end justifies the means. But the end and the means are one. And if the means did not contribute to human happiness neither with the end. The outcome, already contaminated by the actions you took to get there, will create further unhappiness.
What the future holds for you depends on the steps you take now.
