Carpe Diem, Today!

So here we go...! It's March already and I still can't believe it. In my mind I am still trapped somewhere in between Christmas and the New Years Eve. Isn't it strange? People get to go after everything: Fame, wealth, relationships... Yet the ancient demand and one of which leaded the alchemists to set the very foundation of science still remains, often passed unnoticed by the modern age Homo Sapiens. Time. The other one though still remains: gold.

There are moments when I look back and I feel as if my whole life until now was nothing more but the glimpse of a thunder. Just a sudden flash of light, disappearing without leaving any evidence of it's existence in the raging storm. I often feel as if the thread of time slips through my fingers so fast that forces me to run behind every moment. It's as if I am racing against the future while the past is vanishing behind the veil of oblivion, and I am just too busy worrying for all the things to come and the plans I am trying to make based on the unknown. Therefore, I forget that the only thing I have for certain is the present and the scrapbook of memories I'll create from this. I believe this is a common feeling for many other people as well.

Living in the past or the future; either way you cannot enjoy the moment. It's easy to fall in this trap. But it's about time to stop planning the unknown things to come and take action in creating our life based on all we have. In other words: Carpe Diem, grasp the moment, live now - don't leave it for later cause it may be too late by then. That's why I always thought that the greatest gift one can offer is his time, cause it's a part of their lives they'll never get back yet they are sure that it's worth giving it to us.

What is that engages life to beauty? All the little things that hide priceless treasures: The love behind every kiss, the friendship behind every hug, the kindness behind every smile... So, while you walk down the path of life remember: Fight whatever frightens you. Chase anything you ever wanted. Dream big and hunt those dreams until you catch them. Grasp every opportunity. But most importantly; never forget that life only credits the brave ones.

And remember to enjoy every moment! Cause it's unique in it's own special way!

A Strange Post

Well, these days I  don't really get to have a lot of free time... It's exams season, which means that every kind
of hobby has to be put asside and the usual "exams pattern" of studying all day long becomes the main - if not the only one - part of your daily routine. As a result I neglected a lot of things I usually do in my everyday life...
Such as...

     
           


             ...Beautiful, long walks...







   
   
                   




                      ...Reading a book...






             

 





   
                             ...Writting...

                            ...Playing the quitar...

 
                        ...or trying to learn to play the piano ( Always                                                                               failing, by the way :p )

               ...Movie nights and series evenings...

 
   Yet, life does not have to be perfect to be                                                         wonderful! So...

       
             ...even when studying there are so many                         beautiful things one can enjoy! Such as...

     




       ... Tea ( well, that's great for all times! :p )

    ...Justified Overeating ( actually we might regret          this part every time we step onto the scale :p )

 

 

    ...But most importatly we learn new things!            Knowledge is indeed power ( <--- Funny quote                 on the left :p Well don't be evil though! :p )
           Learning new things is a wonderful thing!                 Understanding them... well that's priceless!
           Not to metion the satisfaction if succeeded!

   

                                         




             Plus, exams don't last forever! :)

                                             


       Sooo... Study hard! It's woth it in the end!








                                                          Well... Better get back to study...!
                                                                     Wishing you a wonderful day! :)

PS: Thank you for reading this! :)                                                                                                                           -E.   

Introduction

Hello everyone,

I 've created this blog without really knowing what am I supposed to write... Shall I bore you with details of my everyday life? Or should I write down thoughts that cross my mind from time to time? I am not really sure...

     I believe the first question that should be answered is "what a blog actually is"? Is it something like an online diary? People tend to dislike writing by hand these days since typing seams to be more popular. Personally, I prefer writing cause it is more sincere while typing is a kind of impersonal way of expressing ones thoughts...This is kind of ironic though since I am actually typing right now...!

    Well, back to the main question "What is a blog?" . Like I said before it could be some kind of an online diary where you share thoughts and experiences. But, since we live in a world where technology seams to rule every single detail of our everyday life and therefore consumes most of our time, real life human communication is falling apart. Yet, this does not mean that a human being does not feel the need to communicate. So in order to satisfy this longing we create these blogs - our blogs - and use the same technology that imprisoned us in a lonely life as a channel of interaction. Of course this is a rather hyperbolic description of this particular technology drawback. So let me state here that I am not against technology evolution. On the contrary, its a very useful tool in our everyday life, a great ally in knowledge and a funny way to spend some of your free time. But really now, how many of the modern age children know how to use a map instead of a GPS app?

     By re-reading my text I can see that I said nothing at all and I definitely did not answer the simple question I asked. That's maybe because every one of us sees the subject from his own perspective, moved by his very own motivation and therefore there is not a standard answer to give. I still haven't decided about my personal reason of creating this blog, but it could have been a bit of both...

     Wishing you a wonderful day! :)
