even this got smaller

You need to make the best of things . Just change your name to John (or Bill or whatever ) Toblerone ... Mr Toblerone . That way, when you apply for a desk job, you can say " Look, I even bought my own desk name plaque ... Think of the money you will save in not having to make one if you give me the job .

Yeah but look what it said ! ( I never bothered to read it until you mentioned it ) Seems in line with what I just wrote about niceness at the threat of gun fire ; " Occasionally my conscience will put a gun to my head to clean up bad attitude. "

Maybe some of us just CAN ' safely and openly be themselves ' . And the nice part is NOT faked at all . It might be a cultural problem in the USA though ? I have worked with a lot of Yanks like that, OVERLY fake nice and polite , but different under the skin when the pressure is on . They seemed a little shocked at some Aussies, who dont give a fuck about that ; not actually 'nice' and certainly not politely fake ' . Then again .... in USA you never know who has a handgun under their shirt .... so maybe fake niceness is a good idea ?

Unbeatable ? Only if you will NOT fight someone that CAN beat you from 2:30 .

Wow , what a statement after reading the above ! I guess you are referring to your PHYSICAL 'good health ' ? Osho ...... meh ! 'Osho products' . Just take 250 micros of pure white light LSD, 1/2 hour of hatha yoga, to get any kinks out , some time in pranayama to adjust the internal 'gas levels' and visualise going to your own autopsy . ( In my case the visualisation was helped by previously assisting in autopsy during my hospital work . At one stage an incision is made across the forehead and down the sides of the face and the forehead 'flap' is grabbed and pulled down, this exposes what is under the skin, and the face hangs down from the chin, upside down and inside out , with the eyes still in the eye sockets , it also makes a .... 'specific sound' when done . Seeing that happen to yourself is a very effect form of meditation for non attachment to the physical . )

.... but then again .... I dont have 'smelly flawed skin' .

That seems a type of 'competitive get what you want from other people' ..... mhe . I have got what I want .... what I really want and need ... from other sources , and I didnt have to be 'Mr Uniceguy' to get it . Getting what one wants via other people is like getting energy from others . Why would I want to do that ; get energy that is tainted by others, when I can gather my own from an untainted source.

Women have to attract men now ?

" So shalt thou gradually develop the powers of thy soul, and fit thyself to command the Spirits of the elements. For wert thou to summon the Gnomes to pander thine avarice, thou wouldst no longer command them, but they would command thee. Wouldst thou abuse the pure beings of the woods and mountains to fill thy coffers and satisfy thy hunger of Gold?... Know that with such desires thou canst but attract the Weak, not the Strong, and in that case the Weak will have power over thee. "

Spirituality , is practising, advocating and exploring systems that develop our spirit. Now, all we have to do is define 'spirit' .

Dont worry .... the above post is better .

This Bum agrees .... to an extent. Yes, our whole 'psyche' is " more in the nature of a society of relatively autonomous subsystems " . In many cases, there is no need for such a 'master' to make all those decisions. Like a smoothly running machine, we may not be aware of it running, and in a healthy system, in many areas, we dont have to give attention to the systems that run rightly. But they do not always do so. So I advocate a 'psychic map' that incorporates both aspects. really, IMO, this is the reason to study and practice Magick ..... to become, or 'identify' the King of one's own psyche. I have written about this before here, in a few posts .... everything from Leary and Lilly's 8 circuit 'Exo-psychology' model , through to Swedenborg's 'man is at the crossroads' (of a hierarchy of 'spirits' ) - cross referenced to more recent findings in psychology regarding good and bad forces / 'identities' in the psyche by Dr Wilson Van Dusen and cross referencing all of that to a model in the more recent western initiation system . In this system, the organisation and 'constitution' of the system is also a guideline for the development and 'ruling' of one's own psyche ; some 'levels' (parts of the psyche) are autonomous, some have a say in the governance of the whole, some do not. Its a complex system, but so is the human psyche . ( Its all in the Esoteric and occult forum here, somewhere . ) 'Man' is a host of 'entities' ... all clamouring for some type of control or avoiding responsibilities ... that is a bit confronting for most ... it best for some ( they say) to just function under the idea that is just ONE 'I' .... most seem to get by like that ..... or do we ? Is it all a big mess .... or not ? The wider picture of the world - doesnt seem to be too much awareness of or control of human base desires. What when these forces are not controlled; the king is unworthy or the peasants rebellious ? That's anything from 'normal life' to full blown psychosis or neurosis . I prefer the 'magical life' or 'the royal road' . Many have advocated this approach ... let the sleeping dog(s) lie ... we get by alright. .... ? Others ( Swedenborg, Steiner, etc ) , although acknowledging the 'danger' of opening this 'Pandora's Box' are of the other view ; one should be educated about this, knowledge can be power ... if you know how to manage it .

.... or not depressed . I am the opposite ; usually elated , constantly thankful and appreciative , of 'just life' . It took some time and effort to get to that space. So maybe I am not sane . But I am happy and grateful - the local town here is very pleasant, healthy environment ( pristine world heritage areas) , good local produce, a lot to do and enjoy, a pop tourist place, rivers, forest and pristine beaches, good facilities, even free medical when you need it , etc. etc. Yet the local pharmacy has one of the highest distributions of anti-depressant drugs per population in the state. What's with that ? Peeps be takin so many down in the 'Big Smoke' their bodies saturated with it - in their piss, so in the sewer and the leaks from that ( which is really a small proportion of it ) be fillin up the harbour ! https://mashable.com/2015/07/07/painkillers-antidepressants-sydney-harbour/#zYELAhPoyZqX and Antidepressants from urine are making fish less afraid of predators https://phys.org/news/2017-11-antidepressants-urine-fish-predators.html

(apparently it will also 'improve my appearance' - my lawyer said I 'Look like someone that would stab someone' Then a few from my club went to visit another club (martial arts ) , and their instructor says to me " You dont need to train with weapons, you just shoot people and then bury them in the backyard. " WTF ! ? Gotta work on my smile ! A few weeks in Thailand might do it ! .... whoa! ummmmmm ......

I gave up on that . I am going to see a smiley Thai dancer ... in person . Sit on the beach and then ...... one of these .

Dont worry .... its not the size, its how you use it .

A little bit of this ..... a little bit of that .

Turn that 'finger frown' upside down

Cheap entertainment . But if you were taken in by the title of this thread ... try ; &

That is correct , and no single one represents Germany as a whole, so there can be no 'first in Germany', except for within the context of ONE OF THESE 'logs' . Can you log votes for yourself in numberonemusic.com ? - just curious
