A Sheikh from Saudi Arabia.

i went to a meeting with a group of Muslims here.

the occasion: a Sheikh came to Aix.

So, we took the opportunity to profit from his abundance wisdom.

So much that was enlightened to me.

It was a good experience.

A phrase that hit me the most,
which unexpectedly didn't came from the Sheikh but from the house owner, was;

There are things that Philosophy cant explain,
but Literature can.

i love philosophy.
If philosophy can make tons of money, i'ld have become a full-time philosopher now.
To me, being able to think freely without limit is a great bless from God to humankind.
i dont see how there are things that Philosophy cant explain, what's more when even Literature can.
im sorry, but i just dont see the benefit of Literature in advancing human civilization unless u want to spend most of your life time describing something that can be said directly.

Little did i know,
literature, which i barely look with both of my eyes because solded in my brain board, Literature means old long poem that's just boring, and boring, and boring, is actually a good medium to share your philosophy ideas.

Without Literature, it is hard to explain and make-know to the people around you.

i guess, there's more to Literature than meets the eye.
atleast to my eye.
infact, the best way that i've used to share my thoughts,
is basically; Literature.

for example the use of a story, a history, or a way of speaking to help u describe something, so that even an infant could understand u.

Gosh,
like i said,
little did i know.

i believe you guys know more than i do about literature,
so this stuff must be just a breeze wind to u guys.

a Strange Phenomenon.

i dont understand this.

i have a second account in Youtube by the name cahayailmu for a particular reason.
through that profile, i uploaded a 27-second video titled "Re: sumpahan ikan pari" showing a fish that i saw in Monaco which has been accused of being cursed by some i-dont-have-a-work people, probably because it has a face that does not resemble an ordinary fish.

Anywho,
that video,
got viewed 13,034!

that is 10 times more than all my videos summed up in my real profile! ok maybe not 10times, i was just exaggerating, but it is way much more!

i...
dont know how to...

explain...

lost..

word...

how is this possible..?

i should have put that video in my real profile...

Should i just put my videos in a few seconds without even edit it?

My cool formula mug. =)

a story

i saw a bird today,
it had three wings.

i went near to take a closer look and i said, "Dude, u have a 3rd wing".

"Oh really? thanks for telling me that, all my life, since the day i was born, i never realize that attached to my body is a 3rd wing, gosh, u have changed my life."

"Are u being sarcastic?"

"Yes."

"Are u having a bad day?"

"Well, you've scored another yes."

"Why, what happened?"

"Well, i met this other female bird, she was so beautiful that she resembles a beautiful piece of art created by the famous Gaudi, and most importantly... she was sitting on that branch, all alone..."

"oh, so u're a male bird."

"Duh.."

"Sorry, im not so good in sexbirdiology-(his own made up word for the skill to determine the sex of birds. So, no need to Google it.)."

"U are one ignorant human."

"And u sound like my mom!"

"So its not her fault then.. Anyway, i flew to this beautiful bird, such beauty that reminds me of the arts by the famous Gaudi"

"You already said that..."

-ignoring the boy- "And i landed right next to her. I was being cautious not to frighten her. As she looked like she didnt mind the present of another bird on the same branch, i opened up my beak and asked her what happened that eventhough it was a beautiful day, she looked so sad..."

"i will just listen to your stories since u'll ignore me again."

-truly did ignore him- "She answered, saying, life is so complicated, that she cant decide her mind on what is right and what is wrong.

i felt intrigued, i never expected this as a response, i was waiting for the words "boyfriend - died", 'boyfriend - accident', 'boyfriend - coma' or 'boyfriend - left'.

i didnt know how to respond, all my life, i've never read a book, except for the thorn out news paper that wrapped the food i found on the street, so how can i gave an intelligent respond to that..

But she continued and said, -making a softer voice to mimic a female as if to make the boy to really feel the story-

'Life is funny, you want to be yourself, but u cant,
u dont even know how you should act, so u let other people to take over, u think about what they want, what will be good for them, that you forgot, to just live your own life.

i feel sad, to care so much about what others think,
what would please others,
that u can no longer hear your heart talking,
u got confused,
and sometimes when u thought u're listening to it,
u are actually thinking of other people.

Its sad isnt...' And she looked at me.

And i... i was trying to keep up with her words,
but as i watch her gaze, sadness overwhelmed me too,
and so u had two sad birds on a branch, from what started as a strong male bird trying to comfort his soon-to-be mate."

"Is that why u're sad then? but where is she now?"

"Boy, you shouldnt put your feet in other people's shoes too much, sometimes, u have to be in your own.
If your action doesn't include them, why you have to worry about what they think?
If its your true friends, then they will support you no matter what.
You cant please everybody, dont put too much thought in it, they wont be the ones to question u later.
You have only yourself to answer and soon to God.
Feel happy, just for the simple fact that you have followed what your heart wants."

At that time, a car passed by, stealing the boy's attention and the space where the bird stood, became just an empty space when the boy turned his head to look back at a talking-three-wings bird.

Chevrolet gets its own dancing robot car

France24

French viewers will never get to see Chevrolet's not-so-cool parody of the Citroen C4 dancing robot, as comparative advertising is banned in France. Too bad, because taking the piss out of your competitors is all above-board in the US, and the result in this case is hilarious.
