siddhartha

well its about time i finished another book. always difficult to find some quiet time without falling asleep in this heat.

here's what i got out of it:

* Siddhartha points out "When someone seeks, then it happens all too easily that his eyes will see only the thing he is seeking, that he cannot find anything, cannot let anything in, because he is always thinking only of that thing he seeks, because he has a goal, because he is possessed by the goal. Seeking means: having a goal. But finding means: being free, being open, having no goal."

* "One can convey knowledge but not wisdom. One can find wisdom, one can live it, one can be borne by it, one can work wonders with it, but one can neither speak it nor teach it."

* "Time is not real.... And if time is not real, then the span that seems to lie between world and eternity, between suffering and bliss, between evil and good, also is an illusion."

now if you're interested in these key points, i'll be glad to explain and elaborate on them. after all each point can be a book on its own, but none the less VERY insightful.

friend vs acquaintance

so i'm looking at my chat buddy list just now and realized how misconstrued my definition of a friend was before i got it organized. why did i start to organize my buddy list you might ask? well one reason was i couldn't see who was online without having to scroll up and down even on the highest resolution. i've met a lot of ppl in my time. naively enough though, i presumed all of them to be friends. at some point though, i think they were. but being a friend is a two way streak i think.

i'm tired of being the only one reaching out to some of these so called friends. some i know are busy, but that's no excuse to not be able to drop a quick message or email or phone call saying what's up. i have true friends that do that even if they are busy with life you know what i mean? i mean, i reach out even if i'm busy myself. i think ppl use the term friends too loosely these days. just like love and a few other words i'm sure you can think of.

so when is time for ppl to reassess their definitions of certain terms? well for me, as i'm getting older, it's a matter of convenience really. i only need to talk to and spend time with friends that return the same sentiment i feel towards them. after all, i'm not a kid anymore where knowing lots of ppl meant that you are cool. i'll leave that game to the kids to play.

this is not to say that shut myself out from making new friends. ;) i'm always open to new friends, i'm just more selective is all. my buddy list now consists of maybe a handful of names i would chat to often. the rest are a collapse acquaintance list.

i apologize to my friends now if you are reading this... because now you get ALL my attention! ;)
