Don't fall asleep...

Doomed, etc...

Well I'm off to make some lunch, then (hopefully) to the boozer! Have a great day honey x x

Single life is easy life, but then we'd all want to be in a "meaningful" relationship.

Let's face it, the only way to be happy is to be a complete idiot. Then everything is simple, either black or white, and we'd never ask ourselves confusing questions like "am I happy?", "what am I doing with my life?" etc.

Plenty of literature and philosophy about that, too, which is a kind of consolation as it doesn't make you feel completely alone....

I sooo agree with that, also remind me of the book called 'The Tao of Pooh' when they quoted Pooh
It went something like this..

Pooh to Piglet: ' you know Rabbit is very clever'
Piglet: 'Yes, he really is'
Pooh poses, scratches his head and says :'I suppose that why he never understands anything'



i.e. Rabbit is too clever to understand what a happy Wednesday means !! according to Rabbit no such thing, Pooh is simple and happy with the simple things in life, like celebrating a Wednesday or finding a pot of honey etc!!

Well, I was thinking more in terms of Hesse's "Narcissus and Goldmund", but I guess the Pooh metahpor is just as good

is happiness reflected through other people or should we mercilessly fulfill our own desires?

 

[el duder]

Actually, I just wasn't in the mood. We new age men, being in touch with our feminine side, can be even more annoying than women when we put our minds into it

GAY boy.

I would never. EVER refuse a blowie.

Didn't you know? GAY boys are what turn women on nowadays....Particularly if they can keep their eyes inside their sockets....

I didnt read any more of Hess after the Glass Bead Game - altough I did enjoy SteppenWolf and Damian.

Why cant we all just live together happily?

My lad (for example) is the best bloke in the world. H's totally sweet, wouldn't harm a fly, has every nice quality a bloke can have, and rarely does any wrong!
Yet.....sometimes I find my blood physically boiling with anger at stupid little things. I could at times have him string up outside for putting things under the sofa!!
And why? Who knows! When I lived on my own, my place was a tip - I didn't give a tulip if anything was under the sofa!!
On the other side of the coin, he knows it aggrivates me, yet still does it!!! WHYYYYYYY?!!!
GRRRRRRRR!!!!! Whats wrong with us?!!!

Maybe we should all just be single

In Freudian terms the above behaviour would be attributed to Penis Envy.



Penis envy in Freudian psychoanalysis refers to the supposed reaction of a girl during her psychosexual development to the realisation that she does not have a penis. Freudian thought considered this realisation a defining moment in the development of gender and sexual identity for women. The parallel reaction in boys to the realisation that girls do not have a penis is Castration anxiety.

In contemporary culture, the term is sometimes used inexactly or metaphorically to refer to the idea that adult women wish they had a penis, or to refer to anxieties between men about the size of their genitals.
