Lying aggravates interactions

To everyone his own truth, his own beliefs and perceptions on this world, we are all different, we have to recognize it, accept it, and respect it, but if in an interaction with someone (and to a bigger extent with our surrounding) we consciously decide to conceal our truth, if we don't assume a thought or an emotion passing by us (and most often we are well aware when on a moment we are hiding something), then we are crudely lying to the other and so spoiling the connection that could be born of this interaction.

drop your chains

Do you think you will be bored and idle if suddenly you were to live let's say in a remote village near the ocean?, not many people, not much technology, not much comfort.
We're so used to a materialistic way of life that we can't imagine it to be different, and if we ever try to imagine it we convince ourselves it must be hell.
I think that's bullshit!
Humans are adaptable, if there's no tvs or cellphones to occupy our brain, why not going an adventures, to collect rocks, or learn about flowers and plants, or climb trees, going for a swim, a walk, a run in nature, with a little more items available why not read a book, or ride a bike, build a shack, sew clothes, in fact there's so much to learn and i believe we are able to make do with what is around us, whatever it is, let us be on a deserted island or in a busy city, let us see the goodness around us, we don't need much material stuff to be happy in fact, being healthy (and not much food is required to have a healthy body, just the right amount, prefer fresh food because manufactured food is shit and drugs, in our modern world we are just so used to overconsume, it's such a pity!), having few sincere friends (one or two are enough) to talk to and get comfort, and the mind to be fascinated by whatever we choose around us, picking up a passion for something, on our own.
I think we need to realize that, living happily is not a race to an hectic life-style and crazily hoarding stuff.
It's all in the simplicity to perceive the good in and around ourselves.

At the core

What's important is the message that you carry around,
this is not your face, nor the style of the clothes you wear, nor your personal taste and hobbies, nor your nationality, nor the color of your skin, nor your political ideas, nor your family, friends, and partners... do you understand me?!
What's important is your interpretation of this world, that will flow throughout your whole body and influence every one of your interactions, with others, with nature, with the matter, with new concepts and novelty;
it's either positive or negative, you rejoice or you suffer, in the end everyone knows what is good for oneself, choose to respect.

Too much realistic

Do you have sentiment for an image?
("are you in love" will be the imprecise and romanticized way to put it)
It is said women are more inclined to fantasize and stay attached to an ideal in their mind.
In my opinion people functioning entirely through that way to feel are up for great frustrations, it's living in a dream, an unreachable fantasy, you need to snap out of it, imagination is good to create but not to lose yourself in.
It is said that men are more grounded, more attracted to the bluntness of reality, the animality of behaviors. I think it's better to sense things for what they are, a human being is no fixed image, it's not a slick painting, on the contrary it is shape-changing, and dirty, and smelly, like nature, try to see it, and try to appreciate it, don't deny who you are deep down, it's bad to be lost in the brain, it creates ennemies and leads to frustration.

Are you one to be attracted by the pictures in magazines, on tv, the models, the rock stars, the actors and actresses? So you can read again from the start that short text until you understand.
It's all a parade, an imaginary world, that you are conditioned to love, expecting that it will make you happier, it's all a lie and in that junk created by your brain you are wasting your money and your energy.
You'll ever miss the love of a real person.

Guys like me are despised in this world for being too much honest and realistic.

I came to visit that friend. The house is huge. Silent and empty for now. We occupy our time together, talking, playing, watching. Suddenly a clank and the whirring of an engine is coming from the underground garage. Steps in the stairs, then shuffling in the living room. A short moment passes, i don't shift my attention and continue doing what i  was doing. At that point my friend goes (and it's always the same scenario) : "My parents are here!" watching me intently in the eyes, waiting. I get the message and i'm saying now, that annoys me greatly. I want to say : "And so what? I don't care about your parents, i'm not here to see your parents, i'm here to see you (it happens that you live with them), i don't like to feel pressurized to greet someone when i estimate it's not the right time, when i'm not ready, or when i'm simply busy doing something else, it's my own choice to say hello, i don't like to feel commanded to do it (even implicitly), it's not a lack of respect, i evalutate the situation and decide if i feel to be polite right away, i have to feel it's the good time and that i want to do it so that when it happens and i present myself to someone i am entirely sincere, fluent, and joyful." So please stop imposing on me the fear of what your parents could think and want or what you could think and want, it's not of my concern i must respect myself first, i don't have bad intentions, i'm not a spiteful person, you know it (it's not like we just met), but i need to be the complete master of my actions and words.

And when you do that to your girlfriend when i come along and say hello to her through the webcam, i feel the weight you put on her and i pity her, because i don't care if she doesn't answer back to my waving hand, she's got her own choice to make, i won't despise her because she's not replying, if i decide to say hello, it's free, it's sincere, it's the gift of unconditional love that doesn't require anything back, people must be responsible only for themselves, and as long as we all see the world with respectful eyes no harm will be done.

Got interested in the work and life of Francesca Woodman. 
Found the one photograph that means more to me than the others.
