Is it true that unsolved issues turn into big snowballs with time?

Google returns "48 700 за unsolved+issue+snowball+time" for 0.22 seconds only!
The first result is:
You can carry maximum of 3 snowballs at time unless you find ballbag ... There are unsolved issues with bot pathfinding-system, so bots will get stuck. ...

1. It's true. If I tell to my consciousness: solve the unsolved issues because with time they'll turn into huge snowballs and fall over you, then who will tell it to my subconsciousness?
2. It's not true. Correlation problem? a) Time doesn't affect the transformation into a snowball => snowballs can get formed even in the beginning. b) Snowballs are something too relative when trying to define the dimensions (different people - different measurement) => one cannot tell with certainty that an unsolved issue is a big one or not. c) There is no correlation between unsolved issues and snowballs at all so no matter how long it takes, the correlation is 0 (because unsolved issues are simply unsolved issues, nobody cares what will happen later on)

If go back to the lines where I've quoted Google, so then there could be 48 700 versions of a), b), c), etc.
Then why bothering? :)

Boredome and other funny stuff

Where did this boredome come from? I haven't invited it! I'm 100% sure!!! Well, it's almost certain that clocks don't get bored of repeating one and the same procedure each 24 hours.
Nevermind the machines, I'm not a machine. Therefore I decided to join a small group of friends and to climb Cherni vrah! It will be pretty soon - hopefully this Saturday!!!
That's what I call real fun! :) Vitosha, here I come! :-D

Inch by inch...

So what if everytime we hear something like that it's only on words? What if we hear the words but don't get the meaning? What if our souls are not able anymore to feel the truth?
What does "winners or losers" mean without the internal motivation for winning? And is there motivation without understanding the real purpose of victory?
How can we even visualize what it would be in the end of our lives in order to decide what exactly real living is?

No need to mention the questions require a lot of time to answer...

Quiet, still, you feel there's nothing going on until you realize the space behind your eyes is filling up with something like peace...

This is the path where I start...

Am I preserving the environment?

YesterdayI watched Al Gore's documentary "An Inconvenient Truth". I saw and heard nothing new and yet I was bewildered by the fact that although I've always known that we have a serious environmental problem, I haven't done anything in particular to minimize the negative effect of my activities.

Do I save energy?
No. I keep my laptop turned on during the night in order to listen to the music. Can't I use the mp3 player with rechargeable batteries insted? Or simply set the laptop to be turned off in 30 minutes as in the meanwhile it's running on its battery only?
No. I leave the lights turned on in a room I'm not using at the moment. There's some improvement though - recently I've started noticing and turning it off.

Do I save water?
No. I waste water when having a shower. Can't I turn it off when I'm not under it?
No. I use loads of water for cleaning and dishwashing, also for washing clothes (which ar eonly for hand-wash). Can't I close the tap when no water is needed?

Do I separate garbage?
No. Although containers for separation of waste are already placed across the city, I don't collect the garbage separately. Is it that time and space-consuming to do it?

There are a lot more things to say and do, but I guess if I just do these simple things, I might really make a contribution.

And so it is
Just like you said it would be
Life goes easy on me
Most of the time...

Two drivers for a change

Two things happened just in 30 minutes which made me make an unusual decision. I was walking on the sidewalk near my block when I came up with an idea for a change. I know so many people and I haven't seen or even chatted online with some of them for such a long time! And from friends many became just acquaintances. I want to change that. I want to keep them. I was thinking of the idea every day to talk to someone who I haven't seen for a long time, and try to make them smile.
When I got back home and turned on my laptop I played a CD with relatively old mp3's from my collection. "Stagger" by Underworld started and it remineded me of times which I've thought had almost faded away.
It's decided. It might sound silly, but I take it quite seriously. I already did it once and it feels great to chat with people I haven't seen for ages.
Say hello! :)

Dreams (Post #100)

Every person has got dreams of their own. The feeling of unhappiness because a dream hasn't come true remains until i s fulfilled.
No matter whether you do something or not in order to fulfill it, the feeling of emptiness and dissatisfaction is there.
And while most of the people believe that dreams don't ome true, that they are only part of our imagination, there are some people that act. They persist and make at least a pert of their dream a reality.
The constant feeling of dissatisfaction is he main driver through fulfillment of dreams.
History has shown that many people who believed that their dreams will come true and persisted to make them real suceeded. Such people have always been the driver of progress.

Each one of s has at least one dream in life. Some dreams are measurable, other are not. Some dreams can be seen, others - cannot.
But all dreams have one and the same characteristics: they are achievable. No matter to what extent and when...

Memories.

Early morning.
The rain is falling, making small puddles in the cracks between the yellow pavement in the Sofia centre.
Cars are making their way through the traffic jam while the traffic policeman navigates their movement.
The wind is blowing heavily and the umbrellas serve better for weather-vanes than for keeping the rain off people's heads.
Among these noises and chaos there is one place which is always silent at that time of the day. A place where so many decisive moments have passed that it is almost unbelievable why sounds of voices don't return as echoes from the corners of the room.
Time may pass but good memories never fade.

A return to the roots

Appreciation of beauty and excellence
Humor and playfulness
Kindness and generosity
Forgiveness and mercy
Spirituality, sense of purpose, and faith

These are my 5 biggest strenghts according to the VIA Signature Test which was done exactly 1 year ago by the MCPs around the world and by the MCEBs some time later.

I've already done it. I don't remember all 5 strengths then, but the top one was again "Appreciation of beauty and excellence".


Life is dynamic but some things never change.

My goal could be to strenghten the areas with the lowest "score". One year from now I will have to have found the right people to help me improve and find the ways how to use my biggest strengths to help other people in return.
This is probably my first serious goal since a long time.
If I succeed, then the 4 years spent in AIESEC and the things I've learnt before that in my life wouldn't have passed in vain.
If I fail, these 4 years wouldn't be in vain yet, because this would be the starting point of evaluation: what have I missed to do?

1 year.

About a coincidence and a test

It's been a sad day, a true Saturday 13th (not Friday 13th, unfortunately). I've been wondering whether I really can't feel empathy and sense my frieds' feelings and give them exactly what they need. I'm not good in that yet.
And here comes a test to which Sve gave me the link.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/science/humanbody/sex/results.shtml

It's about defining the type of a person's brain - whether it's "male" or "female" or something in between. Well, I couldn't find the final answer - and, of course, this is not as important as the details.

So, it turns out that my brain is more systematic than emphatic (what a surprise). Yes, I even have got sound proofs for that - even fresh ones from yesterday... but nevermind. The point is - if people know that about me, would they be more symathetic or just the opposite? What would YOU think of people who reveal their true personality which is not always pleasant for the others? Would you cross them out of the list of friends or greet them about the courage to admit it?
