Pretty please with butterflies...

...and flowers. Asta e una din vorbele celei mai bune prietene a mele, si daca ar stii ca functioneaza ca argument suprem pentru a ma ruga ceva, as fi in mare bucluc. Dar ce bine ca nu stie, si nici nu va afla vreodata. Si asta pentru ca ea intr-adevar este omul caruia i se potrivesc fluturii si florile, dar nu in stilul flowerpower, ci unul fain, al ei personal. Insa nu, nu o sa vorbesc despre fluturasi si gaze si alte imagini de genul. M-a dus gandul la altceva, si anume la efectul de fluture. Teoria spune urmatorul lucru: "The butterfly effect is a phrase that encapsulates the more technical notion of sensitive dependence on initial conditions in chaos theory. Small variations of the initial condition of a dynamical system may produce large variations in the long term behavior of the system." Dar ea mai spune si: "The phrase refers to the idea that a butterfly's wings might create tiny changes in the atmosphere that may ultimately alter the path of a tornado or ...

Trenule, bagaj mare!

Acum cativa ani, o prietena buna mi-a spus un lucru fain. (Doar in caz ca va mirati, prietena inca mai exista, si inca e prietena buna; numai timpul e trecut, nimic altceva.) Se intampla sa fie o vreme cand aveam multe pe cap, gen decizii, probleme. Ce mai, intr-un cuvant erau "griji". Si erau cele mai mari fiindca erau ale mele. Si vazandu-ma asa abatuta, m-a luat cu ea la gara, cand trebuia sa isi ia bilet pentru un drum ce urma sa il faca. Eu am vrut sa intru, dar ea m-a oprit spunandu-mi: - Nu intri cu mine, stai aici afara, te pui pe banca si astepti pana vine primul tren. Apoi incepi sa te gandesti la tot ce te apasa si "urci" acele lucruri in tren. Si cand pleaca trenul, sa le lasi si pe ele sa plece cu el. Zis, si urmat, ca de facut nu prea poate fi vorba. Pentru ca stiti si voi, teoria ca teoria, dar practica ne-omoara, tova... , prieteni! Dar in timp am mai facut lucrul asta. Principiul e simplu: devii constient de ce se intampla cu tine si triezi cele bun...

People

People are fascinating. All you have to do in order to see this is to sit down and watch them. See how they behave and hear what they say. People are contradictorial. They can lecture you for hours on how you should have done or handled things. But they don't do it themselves when they should. People are surprising. They behave in the most unexpected way when you least expect it. And sometimes it's the contrary of what you had been expecting. People are deceiving. After having spent some time with them, you have a certain image about them. Then suddenly everything changes 180°. People are mind readers. Sometimes one look is enough to understand what the other one is thinking about. Looks tell more than a thousand words. People are dreamers. Some of them are living in fantasies. Even though they know that fantasies never meet the real life, they try to do this. People walk on the edge. They like taking chances and doing things about which they don't know how they will turn ...
