Title optional....why? Is it because there are a boatload of Self help books

Optimism is a beautiful word don't you think?

So why do I type? What is on my mind? Wouldn't you like to know? Or maybe you are like who the fuck is this guy and why is he typing?

Either way if I am insane at least I am having fun. Often I look at this crude idea of normality and does it exist?
Fuck. Fuck. Fuck.
I felt like typing that  because people are going to freak. Well, in some crazy way the three fucks are for complete absurd ism. Do I prescribe to this theory? No. But as I have seen the movie I heart Huckabees it is an incredible movie about different philosophies and maybe ideologies.

Nobody ever likes the staleness of life so why live in pure boringness? Okay, where is this all going?
I have no idea.
Have you ever played with a paper boat when you were younger? Yes, you the one that is reading my writings. Have you? Well, why don't you become the paper boat and flow down the stream of life.

I am listening to Lamb of God's Omerta. Suddenly, the track changes to a different Lamb of God song 'Walk with me in hell.'

Picture that boat going down the current of life not stopping for branches or anything else. Picture you are the boat and nothing will stop you.
I have read three self-help books and came up with this. They don't take into account God. It is good and well. If you get offended or some how scared I am talking about religion fuck off! I can talk about whatever there are plenty of other writings to occupy yourself. Go fucking masturbate if you so choose, just follow me a bit. It all makes sense. I know that is a comforting word for you. Therefore, if these three books Awaken the Giant by Anthony Robbins, and the other books The Secret and what was the other one? I forgot the damn name. They just skip God entirely. It is good that you can believe in yourself as much as you want. I am sorry folks but in my opinion God is important. Then again I am a non-denominational Christian and I choose to believe this way.
So?
Did I learn anything from these books?
You bet your sweet Giusepppe I did. I learned a bunch but Awaken the Giant needed to be cut down with an ax. I understand Robbins somehow wanted to display his grandeur philosophy but it was too long. It got boring at the end of the book. That is likeable to Ayn Rand's Atlas Shrugged. Again in my opinion jump to page 400 and it starts to get interesting. My attention span is pretty good by the way so don't question it.

Ultimately self- help books change your philosophy, nay, your ideas and how you look at the world. It is an  altering perception is it not?

Now the reason I read these books is to learn. That is the only reason. The other parts I can dissect or cut if I choose to. I understand the point but  I feel I have wasted to much time reading the book.
I'd rather read a mystery book and learn about pacing.

Hopefully you the reader are having a great day.

Remember optimism is a  beautiful thing and so is the world.
You can find beauty in a grey world. You really can just keep believing in you. And if you're not Christian who and the fuck cares.
Just don't harm others and live a great life.
Oh and don't be a douchebag...for Fucks' sake!

1984 was a great book

It was sad when it was all over in the book 1984.

Although, can this not be-set man as a warning of the times we live in.

You know?

I am not obsessed with the idea of a post-apocalyptic world but it is still fascinating. Nothing is left and more often times than not there are remnants of a nuke. The world is tattered and there is always a lack of resources.
Water is always hard to come by and so is the idea of finding somewhere safe. Raiders always turn the damn corner hunting for blood. Violence is always present in a dog eat dog, fight for survival environment, kill the other man to win foreboding wasteland.
In fact, I watched a movie last night that relates to this conversation.

Strap a 1957 guitar on a hero's back and what do you get? Wait, a more accurate description is craft a Buddy Holly look alike with the horn rimmed glasses, yeah the big black ones. Ah wait there's more and by more it is cooler than that.

Now picture all this awesomeness with a white samurai sword. You have now built up a hero named the Six String Samurai.

Kick ass!

1984 hit the readers with a very dark and bleak outlook of the times. The main character Winston was really neat but it was sad.....
To be continued.....
