The Human Instrumentality Project

Getting home at 5am after a whole night of activities is something I should not be doing too often, at my age. I slept both before and after lunch, and I'll probably head back to bed after dinner as well.

So I just woke up to Windz's latest post, and it got me a little angry, and I posted a comment on that.

PF said last night that if you think a person is worth it then you have to wait for them, for as long as it takes for them to accept you. I agree with that in basic principle but I insist that the line has to be drawn somewhere, that there has to be some point beyond which waiting becomes silly. The next question, therefore, is: where to draw the line? For that I refer to one bit of pure wisdom that my granddaughter shared with me: When you love someone, you'll just keep doing things for him/her, and even if you get nothing in return you won't stop until the day you don't feel anything anymore. And there's no point trying to make yourself stop because you cannot help yourself.

Well actually it's possible to make oneself stop, but there's a lot of pain involved. Because the feeling cannot be made to stop. But that's another topic for another time.


I don't know why my brother has to mod every single game he plays, not to make it more realistic but to make it easier, to allow him to make a uber character with which to pwn the world. To each his own, I suppose, but it ruins the fun for me when he then happily shows me his pWnXoRs game where everything in sight gets wiped out in seconds. It makes me seem silly, spending hours and many tries to accomplish something that he does simply with the hack of a blade or the blast of a laser. And I have no one left to show my achievements to, either, because he ain't impressed at something that is, to him, effortless.

Yet another case of people doing things I don't agree with but no, PF, I don't ostracise him because of that (hehe I just had to say that =P). OK, maybe just a little bit..
