I woke up tired today. Tired of being Neo from Matrix. Wish I could go back to blissful ignorance and live in illusion just for one day. Illusion that everything is fine and people are good.
Daily thoughts on life, events, world and travel. Life is much more than sitting in a room and look at the screen. Instead of hitting search button, let us actually physically search and explore. And who knows, maybe we'll learn something.

Reality shows v real life
Yesterday I've seen a coverage that more people vote for reality shows such as Survivor than presidential votes? Really?! What is that? Are we so consumed with imaginary world that we are replacing it with real one?? Ok, it might be entertaining from time to time, but people get a life of your own!!
Reality shows are as real as me sitting on Mars right now!
Spending time watching "lives" of other people is sad. Make your own real reality show with you as a star! Go hang out with friends, travel and visit places you always wanted, enroll in sports (never too late for that), set some goals and work on it!
Be your own leading role!
Let's compromise
Ok young people with embedded chips. I know all these tech novelties come naturally to you. What takes me days or weeks to figure out, you do in a matter of minutes. I get that! But sometimes it is refreshing and fun to take a road trip and enjoy world without buttons and wifi. What do you think? Would you give it a shot?

Control - heh what is that?
I used to think when person is organized and put the mind to it everything would be under control. You know, work, school, friends ....Over the years if there is anything I did learn - nothing can be controlled, nomattr how hard you try.
Having said that, it does not mean we should stop trying being better and improve ourselves. Just .. when you think the world is falling apart, take a deep breath and relax.
Quiet and peace
Just for a few days (as I know the young crowd loves crowd 😁), try to enjoy quiet. Go to the beach or close to the water (river, lake), kick back and relax, a glass of wine and good company - for sure it would charge your batteries.
