Trends

I was watching television, like I do here often, and a show was talking about how everyone goes into new trends. It is a trend to jump into a new trend as fast as possible. I found this funny yet perplexing of why people fall for trends. Now a days people here about a new trends a millisecond thanks to twitter, facebook and other social media items. So my thought process on this was, how the heck did older cultures spreed new trends, or did they even do that.

I know through history, each area had different things going on. For example during the times of Samurai in Japan, warriors had very sophisticated armour and weapons that no other culture had. While in Europe they were just developing proper metal alloys to make a strong steel for weapons. So as one can tell the trend in Japan was at a much different rate then in Europe. Years later isolation in Japan caused there trends to fall greatly behind other nations in the world and their technology looked out.

So as I am typing this, I just realized that trends are part of our evaluation. With out new trends to push towards or to find a better one, we might not be where we are today. If you look at Japan now and how they have developed after opening up to the world again they have become a technology super power. China has been doing the same collecting as much as they can from other cultures to become even more powerful. Its simple amazing.

Now there is the issue of going after the wrong trends. For example here in America we want to jump in the newest fashion trends and spend billions in catching the new trends.Yet we do not spend anything near the amount on fashion trends as we should on scientific trends. From what I see America has begun to isolate its self from the rest of the world in technology and science in exchange for a better looking jacket. If this is what older culture would have done in past we would not be near the place we are today.

Hopefully we walk into a new trend where we follow academics instead of fashion. Making us the stronger trend setter for something much better  then a shoes.

When view through a window looks bad look through another.

In yesterdays post I talked about the amount of stress that I am placing myself in and stretching myself so thin that I am actual feeling a real effect of it. I began to look at everything that I am doing and the hell that I am placing myself into which a very bad situation, one that could place my whole future in a hell. I am seeing that because I am trying to do so many things that I am actually being very shellfish and not doing the right thing. I have so much that is riding on me and yes I need to have fun, but I also need to remember there are other things that should be holding precedence over. Its time to get thing straight and see there is a definitive path in which I must follow to make sure my future at hand, the way it may happen won't be changed because of poor choices on my part. Its time to close one window, and begin to look out another to see a new view, picture, hope for the future.

Orgin II

So, you fellow readers, if you actually read recent posts I have had heart ache. Yes that heart ache is probably considered nothing but to me it was something... anyways I regress. I have been trying to figure out what is wrong and what causes me to blow up into a firing ball of boooo. (As write this I am trying to make this a little funnier then how I felt the past several weeks). So my new mission now in which I do accept is to fix my short falls. I need to look at my past and see why certain relationships go wrong. I also know I need to fix certain aspects of me, mainly confidence. I am very confident in certain things such as work, knowledge and other items but with girls I fail harder then rock does at being a diamond. I don't think to much as wrong with me, but I do recognize that I go after certain things when I know the future result. That might be because I don't push my self for that next level, that level I deserve.  I also have to understand that the past is jus...

Writing about the morning in the Afternoon.

 January 17, 2022 Day late, but not too late to count as missing an entry. Yet again another un-notable week, which could be a good thing. I also have not found the explanation to life, why we live the way we do and the answers to the future. So, like I said nothing to big here.  So with that said. I will now write something as promised in the last entry.
