The Ever Changing 4th Dimension

By 4th dimension I mean 'time'. The 'ever changing' implies that it never stays still, it's changing, updating, moving, evolving. At least compared to the other 3 dimensions

Of course, one can argue that all matter is not standing still either, the atoms are moving, electrons are spinning, so the solid matter is ever changing also. Yet, this argument is difficult to see with your own eyes, unless you have a powerful instrument, of course.

The time, though, is easy to see, and how it changes. Yet: how does it 'change'? It seems that the 3 dimensions are directly related to the 4th and one cannot be expressed without the other. The solids cannot exist without movement of the atoms, movement needs to be expressed with time, and time needs the solids to be viewed. You need all 4 dimensions or nothing exists at all.

My Audience - Yes, I do mean: YOU

Well, Hello, there! For anyone who's reading this, I would like to know: 'Why?' There's nothing deep or philosophical here, or ever will be. These are simply words, put together in a sentence form, that mean nothing to anyone, especially me, and I am hoping, you. The nothingness and meaningless of words is all you'll ever find here.

Happiness - as I see it

Lately, most mornings when I wake up, I feel happy. It's not a very unusual feeling for me considering that I am a positive individual. I smile as I get out of bed; and then get on with my day.

There's nothing wrong in being happy. Yet the society of today might not think so. I should be seeing a therapist, taking drugs for my depression, finding things wrong with my life, etc. Whatever happened to enjoying life as it is right now? When can one stop and smell the roses?

By no means am I dismissing the importance of choosing good actions that will improve ones future. By 'enjoying life' I am not implying to start doing stupid things right now that might potentially hurt you in the future. So, why am I labeled as weird for being happy right now?

When someone asks me 'How are you?' and I reply 'Excellent', I get a double-take, as if the person asking the question would rather hear about my horrible day. There's nothing wrong for feeling good. So, here goes nothing: I am happy right now. There, I said it. Take it or leave it.

A beautiful sunset and a purpose

I saw another beautiful sunset tonight in St Pete. I should say that I was fortunate to see it - it was breathtaking. Rich reds, blues, purples, whites, covered the west this evening, as I biked amongst the houses in my neighborhood.

Today, I decided to start yet another blog - this blog. This was not planned, thought out, or put on my to-do list. It was a spontaneous decision. This is extremely rare for me to act on instinct, very out of character. Which brings me to the purpose of this blog. Perhaps blogs don't really need a purpose, they just 'are'. But I should state mine in any case.

Some people keep blogs to express themselves, to write down how they feel, what they think. These will be mostly my reasons also. Yet, a part of me wishes to be someone else here, to pretend, to act. My serious nature doesn't allow me to be anyone else; yet here, I can be anyone I wish to be.

Interesting numbers:
5 - (number of cats I saw on my bike ride)
2 - (number of people I saw mowing their lawn)
1 - (number of kittens I saw play by the road, then be adopted by a woman exercising)
