Right to be wrong

Do you have it?
Do you have the
Right to be wrong?
If so
For how long?

In the age of information
Accesibility
Communication
When you have all the means and capability
When you are drowning in it
When you are molded by it
Do you still get to say
“I didn’t know”

Is being informed obligatory?
Is calling shots and facing unwanted results
An act of god?

Ignorance really comes from inside
When the eyes wide shut
An the man can’t think for himself
No matter what
He is doomed with his ignorance
With no rights to defend his actions

Fin

There is no promise
For a closure
Even though expected
Nothing is certain

We tend to raise our spirits
Create an imaginary world
Where everything goes our way
Where we have the final laugh
Where we are loved
Where we are happy

This is not the case
Not every ending
Goes in our favor

And sometimes there may not be an ending
The story may just cease to exist

And even at that moment
It’s important
To accept it as it is

No time loss

Slow down
Sometimes there aren’t any shortcuts
There aren’t any shortcuts to a good movie
There aren’t any shortcuts to a valued friendship
There aren’t any shortcuts to a better you

There is no time loss
In the path to
Discovering
Growing
Healing

These take time
And each second spent
Is sacred
Take your time
You got plenty

Sharing is caring

In a new connection
We may hold ourselves back
We want to be protected
We don’t want to show our cards
Soft spots, scars, views, beliefs
Experiences that ended in a catastrophe
Lessons learned
Traumas lived

But here’s the issue
One puzzle piece connects to another
Not because one likes the other
They connect because they fit
If you, as a puzzle piece
Do not show yourself
How come the matching piece will see you?
How will these two pieces match?
Stay out there
Stay visible
And never be afraid of who you are

Time goes

Time goes by
And it goes fast
Whatever your plans or achievements are
If they rely on a time unit
You have to do it know
As the Chinese proverb goes
The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago
The second best time is now

Every once in a while
Take a step back
And put your time-relying plans on track
Otherwise you will be left empty handed

Act fast
Act now
Time is here
And time is now
And it won’t wait another second

Deep down

Our feelings are a big thick coat that covers our true self
When we are angry, sad, nervous, scared
We give an answer, take an action
From the top layer
The question or the need doesn’t even come down to us
It’s automatically answered either to prove a point or to protect us

Even in time of crisis
If we can take of this coat
And embrace the question as a whole with open arms
Then we will give the most pure answer that will fit our soul

And at that point it doesn’t matter
If our answer coming from the deep down
Is true or false

Friends

1 is less 2 is a lot
Core friends
Childhood friends
Friends from highschool
Friends from neighborhood
Thin line that separates
Friends vs. people you know
Friends are already people you know
But people you know aren’t always friends
In tough times
In desperate times we tend to overlook this fact
We want to believe that we are in fact friends
Even our social connection doesn’t go beyond knowing names

Don’t go into a self-created delusion
Acknowledge you are in a tough spot
And you need a friend
Don’t try to make a friend out of someone
Just because you need it

New names

Coffee but not
No caffeine not collected from high altitude trees
Full organic lab made
Meat
Not from lamb
Not from cow
Sticky something
Cars
400 horsepower
No engine insight
No grill no exhaust
Actually a modded 800 watt dyson vacuum cleaner

Maybe it’s time
To create new names
For new things that uses the names of the earlier inventions
At the end
Can you call it an innovation if you can’t even name it?

Drop out capitalist

Earning and buying at a lower class was an achievement
You could mow lawns or deliver newspapers on your bike
And within a reasonable amount of time and dedication
Your earnings would reach to something tangible
With that money you could have bought
A brand new walkman at 100 bucks
Your neighbors clapped out moped for 30 bucks
A concert ticket for 15 and 3 bucks to watch E.T. on a giant screen

We just don’t have it anymore
The shiny capitalist dream has lost it’s glamor
It’s not part of anyone’s dream now
We went full circle and came to an halt
Now living in an era where we pay monthly for a new phone
Buying a car with years of saving
Which probably won’t even last a generation of our kin

Let’s go back
This is wave that you don’t have to ride
You can head back to the beach
Change your swimsuit with dry ones
And enjoy the life with different givings

Test mode

Being emotional creatures
We fly from one feeling to another
Most of the time without smooth transitions
In the moments of despair, anger, guilt
It gets tougher to control yourself
Because these spark up fast

A solution maybe a suggestion
In IT world before something goes live
There are tons of testing
User acceptance testing
Business simulation testing
Quality approval testing
And the list goes on

In these testing areas
As a duty, the operator goes wild with the tests
Goes above and beyond of healthy scenarios
Why?
Because you can never  predict all possibilities
That’s why we go monkey and slap all buttons at the same time
To see if the machine or software will go crazy
But we know by heart that this is test environment
Which means nothing is real
It’s all a big delusion
And everything will be alright once the session ends

This is what we need
A switch button for test mode
We know it’s real life so you may say
Isn’t this declining the real life facts and happenings?
Which obviously not healthy at all
At least in a well functioning society

Test mode is here to delay
Your immediate, impulsive and unhealthy responses
When someone starts pushing your buttons
Get into testing mode
Since that person is obviously slapping every button going wild
Why not see it from a perspective where their approach
Have no power over you
