The Blog War

Somewhat challenged in all things technical, the furthest I’ve gone is to regularly visit a few that I found interesting enough. Never had I the urge to have my very own – until the blog war. Some friends have been waging major war against each other for the whose-is-the-better-blog-award. Hmm.. what’s the excitement all about? One HAS to be curious after ALL THAT. My friends are a wonderful crazy bunch, let me tell you that much.

So here I am. Blog virgin. Perhaps this beats the conventional type of writing that I only normally do i.e. paper and pen. Who knows?

Yesterday I was alerted that if you’re on diet and you’re thinking “I should not have that yummy slice of chocolate chunk cheesecake”, you’re actually concentrating on the goddamned cheesecake – which ultimately makes your diet a tad more arduous to stick to. Which makes complete sense.

How then do you explain why psychiatrists make their patients revisit their life-scarring experiences -- the ultimate goal of which is to stop thinking about those experiences?

Perhaps understanding is the key here. Once you truly understand, then you are able to see things for what they are and would be able to make better judgment in order to move on. Sounds easy enough doesn’t it?

Sometimes we are stubborn for the wrong reasons. In effect we are actually subconsciously digging a deeper hole for us to plunge into when it all falls apart.

But then again, the “wrong” reasons will only reveal themselves AFTER the catastrophe has occured.

I’ll take my chances. Now where’s that lovely cheesecake?
