Yesterday in a completely crammed tram I witnessed an impressive interpretation of this phrase.

Next to me a woman was sitting, listening to some music (not exactly my style, but never mind ;). Opposite was another woman, which suddenly turned towards my neighbour, asking: "Sorry for disturbing, but where did you get this nice player? It's so cool and small, just to clip it to the jacket!" - The other one was a bit startled but told her this was the ipod shuffle and the shop where she got it from.

The woman took out some really colourful book and a calligraphy pen (with violet ink!), wrote down "ipod schaffel, saturn", looked a bit doubtful and showed it to the other one - "Like this?" When the other woman corrected her, I expected her to cross out her 'silly' writing, as i would have done. But instead she smiled to herself, chuckled, and drew a heart shape around it!

Sounds very trivial, but the moment was so impressive that the woman next to me and myself exchanged surprised glances. It's just not so common to deal with these kind of mistakes in that way, even though some wise people keep advising it very convincingly.

don't worry?

I wonder if it is any use in life to worry about small things (and maybe even big ones?). I mean, there are certain things that might happen and that won't be nice. But if they need to happen, they will if we worried or not. (Actually, sometimes i guess they might happen even faster..)

So if things happen anyway, the difference lies in our own attitude: do we enjoy the good things we have and the possibilities in life, or do we spend all this time with worrying?

Actually, i wonder if it is about what one believes in; if one is generally optimistic and seeing chances at every corner, or if one is afraid of new things, trying to keep the familiar as unchanged as possible?

it should be some multicomputer operating system... but as i found on wikipedia, it's also the name of a water device with the curious name Advanced Multiple Organized Experimental Basin with which you can write letters in a water basin...

off track

sittng in the underground or train these days i get funny thoughts about life. i don't know why, but somehow at times the world just seems to pass me by. it is as if everything is moving in a certain way, just i don't know the rules so i stay where i am. very strange feeling (but then very much the feeling of being in transit in a train for example. you stay still but still everything around you is moving on..). i wonder though if this effect is coming through in the rest of my life? maybe being on the train is deeply influencing my subconscious?

maybe i should stop breaking routines all the time. it just causes confusion, because nothing can be relied on. but then, going accross all the time could also be a way of getting along - just always as a stranger.
