Unbalance mode

Which weight should be given priority to, in order to develop some more balanced strategy?
(yes... still on Europe with Greek focus matter).
I mean,  by one side there are hidden agendas ( not talking about conspiracy whatsoever! , mainly greed as key motivation) institutions, bureaucracy, agreements etc, by the other (perhaps) ideals, political agendas.... in the middle citizens. If there's some sort of communication problem, its urgent to keep talking preferentially with a genuine translator, with no preconceived ideas (if its possible)





Poor you, if you are lack of ideas and ideals.... but poorer if you have put trust in bad leaders.

To B or not to B - King

if everything was as simple as music..... there are persons who perhaps should be Presidents, Ministers, Kings, and unfortunately are not. Today the living King of blues left us, with the burden of so many blues lyrics that life brought to him and to many other outhere.

Culture is a value to be treasured, governments should definitely pay more attention to it.

Long live the King.

Eg(g)o

Mental note ... to remind myself that easter, should be a time for reflection and refrain consumption voracity.... we really can't tell what is beneath our skin until we get to the next layer.... at this onion peeling like lifetime, where each layer is taken faster than the previous, there's seems to be an amorphous rules set for humans, that more than ever, doesn't seem to fit  or adapt easily to person mundane needs. Being or remaining original not easy due to constant marketing bombing (almost) all over;  Just get real.

POeTRY day - Black old death

Black old Death
It smells like mold here
My unrestless thin fingers
Carved through my skin
With swiveling eyes in fear.

Perhaps I didn’t care
For the burning body
That alone left its soul
Lied in the misty despair.

It took a long while
Until the black cloak
Covered my sight
As concealing my smile.

Patiently felt my bones to walk
And shacked up the dust
Brought from the deep
Where voices slept scream and talk

Who was that unknown shadow?
The worst seek nightmare?
Or merely a passenger fellow?
That simply stood and stare.

I flew over and around
Felt against my face a breeze
And drops of blood I found
They were thoughts I squeeze
From a cold freezing night
That insisted to come in a dream
At the dawn over the light
As a black mask in Venice stream.

Through such oil dark paint
I let it join and sing for me
For nothing: just sound and faint
As an owl, I waited and intent see.

Time


As Aristoteles foresighted, in my personal point of view, and as a conclusion, all citizens should have, by default, an highly degree of freedom and for that should be responsible and their leaders as well. The problem is that we can't have unbalanced weights in the same scale. Lets take tyranny forms/shapes in any way, mostly have resulted in decayed societies; Even the greatest empires didn't last, because at some point someone lost their focus on what was essential at that time, being that efforts on technology development, army defense, or leisure. Whats the point of having power in the hands if that  sames hands are full of dirt and disrespect for the basics.
I don't believe in fairy tales, but todays disproportions can only bring suffering (.... ) Drucker (management consultant) seen it in the industry context, where he discoursed about the huge salary gaps between workers at a same organization in the XX century, that would undermine the path of such unit and hence, globally, societies. ( and this just one bit of an issue....)
So what could be done? How to teach someone to refrain its power and greed desires, if even the controlling institutions can't assume their role and  mostly have doubtful and promiscuous relations with their pairs. By the way, what is a modern society? Where do go democracies? Are citizens aware enough to get empowered to be heard?


Even the great leader and visionary has to be humble to see by the citizens eyes.

EU ( means I in Portuguese )

New changes on the way, as new thinkers get inpowered. (lets take Greek example)
What is the meaning of such changes? what will this bring to people?
I really don't have a formed opinion about Syriza (far left wing greek party); for what
i've seen in the news, i'm not very keen on someone that promises to break international
commitments.
One could question if present economy models are society/state sustainable,
or deeper, if markets should control much of societies (this is just a personal conviction) .... but...
couldn't there be some new good ideas to make persons independent of such exploiters?

My true billion dollar question would be "what would be a credible alternative, that could develop economy without jeopardizing people's wishes and requirements?" - well, this would demand at least an honest answer.

I believe that this will have repercussions on EU countries, some early followers will have their chance to call themselves to the process where some populism will prevail, nevertheless of the major buzzwords they have.
Austerity has many faces.... if by one side there are public/private overweight on spending, over credit, by the other controlling institutions, markets, banks and other .... let this happen and it was under the legal umbrella. This promiscuous relation between give and take should be balanced ....
Well mentalities have to change....current rules are not enough and sin for being arrested by old fashioned models.
I vote favourably for economic development to achieve peoples wishes (general growth, better wages, employment, education, healthcare, protection to unprotected elderly, children and disabled), but no citizen should be arrested for its supposed good demands.
Watching the overall scene and  north european countries behaviour.... more then ever EU will have the Portuguese meaning of "I", the selfish optic side of the europeans.... which in fact is the opposite of what the European project should be..... as i've said before true leaders wanted.....badly!

2015, ARE YOU THERE?

it seems that a new year began ... there are some uncertainties on the way
such as oil and currencies balance, critic politic and diplomatic affairs and decisions are on schedule. USA has become independent from middle east oil, and is now exporting, also unfortunately to europe.... they still can't figure a way to safely drive EU... a bunch of countries that can't stick together as a sole institution/ nation.... will never have the strength to set their international agenda.... neither the resources....at least will take too much time and money.

So much more standardized ways of thinking are expected ....... hope this doesn't affect the innovators and entrepreneurs!

WELCOME 2015 - forecast for 2015 (see also 2014)
1st people are more aware-- social networks and new media support are spreaded ... more than ever.... spread of knowledge or stupidity.

2nd these same people for themselves realise more that 
can't rely and be so states/ government dependents -- new movements that can be citizens genuine representatives are on the way and be shaped by left and right wingers (.....?)

3rd New players are creating their agenda and with it societies will have to adapt to it, for instance "new" foreign languages teaching - my 14 year old niece asked my opinion if she should select mandarin or german as 2nd language... so this is a fact.

4th New tech advances in hardware (nanotech advances) and augmented reality will bring new breakthrough opportunities in how people relate with machines  and with each other. Increasing tailored made productive systems.
--- sure... we can 3d print almost everything ... thats an huge advance in product development.

5th There are also some uncertainties in what consumption concerns. --- Can't figure if BRICS can sustain world economic grow.... corruption undermine the path (for all present societies) and can easily change BRICS to brics


all in all .....i'm still pessimist .... bah..... to me :P

Word (wordossaurius).... the values extinction

"you have my word"
"lets handshake"
"i promise..."

This could have several readings, and of course everyone (depending on its environment)
has its own conception, but to keep it simple, although it can have different contexts,
i'm referring to the business one... its incredible how easy it is nowadays, to change commitments under the promise, or the "word" for it..... so it is worth very little.... even from the people that you can actually know, for instance friends.... (or supposed ones)....
yes to those ones who like to stab each other in the back....guess what? you can go all to mars, or to the Mariana Trench!
At the end the result is pretty much the same, which is the break of commitment....I guess its alike in any picture.... politics ... deals.... you name it.... of course its a jungle.... but i hate to see "predators eating their own cubs"..... watch your back...

Bubble breaker

i just remember when bubbles only represented to me summer water soap cups and with it to make floating empty thoughts which could fly high and high..... though it has been a time since that has happened, the bubbles seem to perpetue under several shapes. Lets take Roubini "Doom" analyst bubble.... according his own predictions,  2016 will be the stock  market crash year... because of the public debt "thought" that flown so high that, as other bubbles, it explodes in stratosphere. Is difficult to accept, but the gears just rolled free, there's possibly no mechanism that can oppose to the path of a crash... (personally i thought that it would happen sooner).
So, how to grow GDP in such a way that you could sustainably spare, to pay debt, or how to create enough commodities as royalties that you don't need to increase production, but rather only recognized added value for what you've already have, in the short term? I really can't figure how, but the "wild card" named corruption (the lack of it, actually) would certainly produce strong results in the most severe foresights / scenarios.
At the end, all "PIGS" or not, like to play in their own mud....

Design

The question about design,  I may say, it's about its objectives... design of politics, strategy, process, methods, auto, furniture .....whatever; And one point that remains transversal to it all, is creativity, rather being towards functional or "look" purpose.
What happens is that nowadays there's, in my opinion for sure, much more looks purposes than functional ones. So i could simply conclude that the lack of creativity lead the reasonable thoughts towards the looks and not the functions, having actual politics as example , a lot of it are just fait divers, fireworks. But what has constrained creativity? Does environment issues influence the way to inpower creation hence design ? Sure it does. Surrounding factors do influence the way our thoughts flow rather being noisy or not. So the way a country is being directioned, can be strategically leaded regardless the amount of noisy, or foggy "stuff" ?  So do designers, should be and stay as much as possible independent from the "world"? Perhaps, if that conducts to inspiring thoughts.... and that should be treasured, as i see it, it doesn't occur so often... look at europe for instance....

searching for intelligence signs.....

"After  (....) years of searching the skies for signs of intelligence beyond Earth..." 
- ah ah ah- this is too presumptuous....try to find any in earth first .... that would be an hard challenge!
All of this media fanaticism and pseudo regulated markets.... there is hardly a way to escape from the so called modern society's web.

Citizens-Interest Groups,Lobbying - Politics - Laws - Citizens

this closed circuit trends to lead to few persons interests.... which might not be representative, but still somehow legitim. 
This circuit could be in did, a good thing if you considered that the intentions  of these groups were "pure", or at least far from egocentric needs and feels.

Its like taking our own medic prescription knowing that the side effects are no good. So, how to introduce true values at this well oiled gear machine? Are there so many blind sheeps, that simply prefer to accept their path as dogmatic with no alternative? ("please, cheat me 'cause i like it so badly"!) Or are citizens just so arrogant to the point to think that they own the truth and dominate all info already available.....

evolution is a strange way to cross by, but ignore it, is even stranger....

Engineering...

We've been watching interesting evolution throughout the years, but none, yet, have
been capable to answer the ultimate(s) human desires, which can typically possibly be....

who's the creator
where do we came from
where do we heading to
can we live forever
are we "alone" in the universe
... and much other

of course and although there are lots of multi level research, it all serves the purpose of cumulative experiences towards awareness (i think) and to keep us also distracted during our small but hopefully interesting journey.

We are so small regarding all universe events, that makes me feel annoyed watching everyday world news or mundane events. I understand that societies are complex and overlap these "tiny" pseudo philosophic questions.
We live in a engineered world as seen by Messer Leonard Da Vinci, but ready to be sold at any cost, with strength of the Marketing (well oiled up) machines;

I can effortly live by the rules in which our average societies so far conquered or evoluted to, but that doesn't mean i can't go on and keep question it, or even propose to modified it, although everyone has to realise that when it comes to it..... the basic laws stand i.e. we are just in raw state jungles, and no philosophy questions apply. Knowledge is everything as i've stated before...


at the end..... and surely mostly.... who gives a F$€$ ?

The True Scotch

What is better? Single (malted) or blended... is it a matter of taste?
Perhaps the inner tradition, the subjacent culture and history, the memory preservation.
Surely the facts are always supportive to understand the state... of art.
But rather than discussing a state of art or even trend, it would be much better to achieve an ideal...
Is it to risky to go for an ideal?

The True Scotch .... Only for the ideal.

Bankless

Much i've been telling about essential values that should make part of our lives, or deeper .. written in our DNA. Unfortunately there are purposely awful mistakes and misunderstandings that keep the world constantly beating itself for some of the same challenges. the early 20s crisis took some of its causes from political and economic power and greed. Although todays markets interdependency and business speed are definitely a key to prospect and foresight, one must not comprise society stability based on fast and extremely high return rates. What makes a market truly volatil is in my opinion the undefinition and lack of insight  key regulations. Undefinition, because of the obscurant products and how they are achieved (does an end justify the means???). This can get expression in every market, but it gets clearer when it comes to financial systems/ products. We can negociate statistical products that are only numbers, no added value here, and no one seems to deeply control it. So there's a black thick cloud where some gets access and makes unimaginable fortunes. Please notice that i'm not against huge fortunes, i'm against corruption in any kind and shape to obtain it, and in the way to make such fortunes that innocents must be sacrificed for the sake of a bunch of thieves. Every average bank deals with offshore accounts to launder toxic (poisonous i may say) deals, funds hence financial products, and bankers who own it have their assets safely hidden in several countries... So where is regulation for these cases? Although this is widely "accepted", politicians are very tied to this matter and so the system hypocrisy and promiscuity doesn't allow to go much further than the state of art. Is just not fair that so many people and nations are sacrificed in the name of GREED. I cant believe that there were toxic assets in some banks (Lehman Brothers, Greek banks, Bank of Scotland, BPN, BES, BPP), because they all practice the same game and deal with the same procedures.... if they are all toxic... lets contain them and spray a bit over their heads so at least they can regain a bit of consciousness....

So here it goes.... again!

Arbeit machts .... Arbeit mach nichts

Work, labour, job ...  does it really make on us a purpose?
Since ever men had to face challenges in order to sustain itself and in time learned to apply
its knowledge to get profit about it; initially with goods exchanges and latter by means of time measurement, and  specialized applied working force... (W=fxd [Joule])...
So does work, gives you purposes, and strength to carry on, helps you to get focused on your life (and mundane) objectives, makes you independent, or a prisoner, gives you an everyday burden?
 Are we near from the 80's kraftwerk "we are the robots" or from the tom petty  "free fallin"?  ....
We are just vague sand in a sudden wind blow... so how much your work absorves you?

HOPE

hope, faith, belief .... are some of the many ways that keep people pursuing their objectives.... of course the need is the outmost compelling trigger that enhances your strength. What if the need has external causes, and are driven to achieve less noble  targets? What if the need isn't really a need, but a mere greed; What if the world was ruled in the same wrong direction, and anyone (societies) couldn't see, because was accepted almost as dogma, as been told so by the current leaders.... too philosophic? perhaps....
perhaps i'm wrong.

the EURO thing

There's something in the way that simply puzzles me;
For instance, this last sunday there has been elections for the european parliament, yet,
so few subjects have been discussed about europe.
As so many have wrote about it, these are mere local intermediate elections.
Lets see: there hasn't been public debate, the usual marketing flyers are composed by internal slogans, public appearances of the main candidates, are just fait divers ... its a mind game, which citizens don't approve at all. If you look at the results will notice that the winner with majority is : abstention.  With a mean participation of 43,09%  in the whole of the EU countries thats too low, facing the advance of some radical left and right wings movements. So what to do now? Do we want to take the (peace!!!)  destiny in our hands or maintain continuous distance between citizens and politics? Being european, means achieving consensus within a long term true strategic project, in order to keep the countries bonded..... so where's the glue that stick this together? has someone run out of glue????  The euro flag should mean something ..... otherwise is just some blue scarf....with random spreaded and alone (lost in the universe) stars or even "black dwarfs".....

Mindless.....

Mindless

What a fade in and out
All this noisy rumble
All this speechless shout
That makes crawl and stumble

What a fall in and out
That wipes away the mean
Because our body's so heavy
And   mind so unclean
And  paradise so steady
Floating above the water steam

Where  golden  fishes  plunge  in dance
In the white whispers  at night
Where the moon hopes her chance
For the wind to blow light

No one's there to enjoy the paint
Just tiny waves of reflection
Just the dark glow faint
Echoes of laughs intersection

Among the listless  warm breeze
That rides towards universe  infinity
There are random thoughts release
That flow throughout pure insanity.

an Euro vision...

I'm no one to judge .... but did you heard about the eurovision song contest?
Who has won that night?, did the singer won? Did his marketeer won? Who really own this winning?
Should this stage act, be so political as it is ... ? OK,  at the end, it can be what spectators, audience, media want, so should we be entitled to question what criteria could be placed to evaluate such contest.... because this is starting to look like everything else.... lots of rules, no effects .... all misunderstood... and big shots on the loose, lots of it...  this are just fire works...... let the circus continue.

FREEDOM

This is the time where citizens should be more aware than ever.
Are we forget that freedom implies a true responsibility? Have we been responsible enough
to deserve that "freedom" or are we just mere audience of "tv shows"?

A true change (revolution) should start in citizens minds, hence thoughts, then in anything else,
so I bow to the ones that are strong enough these days to leave their comfort zone, to achieve
something better.

as i said before o conhecimento é liberdade, knowledge is freedom, conocimiento es libertad, connaissance c'est liberté, Wissen ist Freiheit, знание это свобода,  知識是自由

(btw these sentences above have nothing to do with political ideology, since i can't recognize myself in any)

Education (bad and good)

How does the education influence or determines habits and behaviours in a future,
namely in the labor market?
does it comes randomly along your all life or does it grows and then matures by itself, and becomes
obsolete as time passes?

Perhaps its a mix of variables that determines this equation result (at least is my opinion)
Really it seems not easy to define methods that are consistent through times and specially
that follows our evolution as a society. It appears to be the information (since we are at that era) that
now, for instance, commands the destinys of education, since is a strong surrounding environment  variable.
If you go back in 80's and were a teenager at that time (or search 80's info ah ah ah ) probably you'll check that your surrounding behaviours were the connections with people, and experiences that you had ( teachers, family, working, home .... ).
If you hopefully have had good teachers or mentors (or even if life for itself taught you) during your path, then probably the odds of getting a "bright" professional future increase greatly. Then what? - you may ask... well, then you'll influence even grately the ones that come behind you, mentoring them as well....

So, who in the world as taught this in power generation of people, that seem to be so unaware of what citizens wants?????, (besides themselves of course) meaning: requirements, desires......

oh by the way.... educated people are not so easy to control.... Pixies at "trompe le mond" album in Umass track have a peculiar vision about it...

Truth - seriously?

Another day I was actually talking to the barber, when he referred to politics (generally) as a bunch of truth omiters .... as i've argued that its a propagation effect that came from a long ago..... so its almost in our DNA
In fact Aristotle has stated, regarding is mentor Plato, something like " I am a Plato's friend, but i'm even more of the truth"....
This sentence carved my mind, and despite of this time gap from that ages it still does apply..... because there are so much opinion makers, so many noisemakers, so many fait divers, that one can't filter so much volumes of info, and by the way, opinion maker should be now considered a profession ..... (being ironic)

It's just like the Matrix movie of the  Wachowski Brothers (nice metaphor), there's a pretending world and a real world.... wars, conflicts, earthquakes, health, countries bailouts, airplanes ....
 no I'm no conspiracy lover whatsoever.... and what's in the middle of all this? the usual: greed and the madness of wanting to control mankind....

yes we could probably be ants in a predicted path..... but let just us to be the ones who do this path prediction.
As i said before, i'm no conspiracy lover, i'm just an Aristotle old friend....

The journey: life emergency kit

There's a certain idea about life possession, and how tight we are to it.
My questions/ answers about it are very ordinary, and probably random or shallow...
Probably (if you've read some of my other thoughts) you will think that this pseudo-analysis
is more from the same..... but there are some details though.

a) What is important in life? (what values should you truly cherish?)
b) How patient you are, to accept your human condition?
c) Is it worth to be unhappy if you are healthy?
d) Too many distractions make you unfocused?
e) Where do your focus should be pointed at?

I think that it is consensual that our lives are fragile and brief, and of course its up to us
to decide how to manage our seconds in this time lapse. So, life can be an opportunity
if  perhaps health, luck and preparation meet together in a certain moment;
By marketing books, we are taught or at least impeled to live the moment and appreciate
all the goodies that we possible can or even cannot....

Answering (it really depends on so many things; i'll try to stick to the average, and add a personal view )

a) your priorities will determine the importance for it;
for instance all your main connection, relations/ creations and dreams should be cherished.
(meanwhile don't forget to keep in shape mentally and physically!)

b) Patience is one of those characteristics that can gives you clearness,
and also time to think about, and perhaps an opportunity to make things
relative... patience to do, listen, to learn, to wait, observe and enjoy.

c) To be happy and embrace life as it moves forward in time, will be contagious, to you
and the others that deal with you. (spread happiness, you'll receive happiness).
If you think there's no reason to be happy, then try to relativize (as i stated before)

d) Sometimes we think we are in such a rush, that we are not able to absorb any more information,
but if you consider to have a good 2nd thought, then you'll probably realize that most of that
information or occupation, is rubbish and don't even make part of your priorities... the ones that
can make you really happy.

e) Focus what you enjoy, probably this step we'll take you right to the first one a)

in sum, i know that we lack some seconds .... but .... one day at a time.

Can you learn from experience? 5 steps

We all know that our behaviour reflects our life in what experiences concerns about;
So how could we learn from those experiences? is there a procedure for it?
This can take us to the point where is mandatory define good and bad (to filter).
e.g.
Good - what impels you go further without hurting anyone
Bad - hurting someone to achieve your desire

STEPS
1 Live and do (interact)
2 Invoque and remember
3 Select (accordingly to your own concepts of good bad)
4 Apply ( in every moment)
5 Check results (constantly)

If the results match to your interests, that leads you to improvement, then you are learning..(?)

POETRY DAY - a thought about it

As i see it, Poetry is like a life metaphor .... a subtle look from a deep conscious state, which can be whatever the author or reader wants.... so here's my small contribute. (got done a new sound also.... please just click "play" if you want to ear it)


Days

Through images seen
Through thoughts I gather
Some truth where I lean
Read it in a bird's feather

All that it is
All that it has been
Perhaps doesn't makes sense
Because landscapes are thin
And they can be so dense;
By the touch of a finger
By the sound of a ear
Where you can finally rest
Where you can finally linger
Lulled by a journeys quest
Only with peace, with no fear.

About to find a new sky
Maybe its a dream at sleep
Probably just a quantum leap
This path at a blink of an eye.

THE PASSENGER XI - tribute to my missed loved father

So the beasts approached  and started small talk with the trees...
"Nice leafs you have there....." - said the Bear . "And what gorgeous flowers" emphasized the Wolf; The Bear and Wolf look each other and the Wolf continued - " we have some flowers of our own you want to see them?" - asked the Wolf showing some brilliant things with heavenly perfume....
(to be continued)

The Trees were much aware of such offers and so they stood together, facing all the adversities such as of that snicky wolves, or the gigant strong bears, which every time were trying  to get off the fence, though their many tries....
With the careful tired eyes  the owl and passenger crossed by to take a look, repair some of wrecked fence portion... but every each time were amazed and proud for their glorious achievement; now they really were splendorous, magnificent, could be seen from far..... and more and more animals noticed it .... even the many birds were not indifferent and just picked some leaves without any permission..... "what for ?"  they claimed..... " there are so many... and these are so much tasty"..... 
The Trees were really warned about it, but just let them.... because they would like to have their good connected neighbourhood in a balanced fashion, they thought.... still there was some abuses...
The Trees were now on their own , the Passenger and Owl realised that was time to just let them take care....let the nature follow its path.... there were so many adventures, advises, experiences... that risk was almost null... they have had a good tuition.... 
It happens that one day, there were some lumberjack crossing by the forest.... and gathered with the wolves and bears as an invitation from the last... " so as you figure it hasn't been easy for us to get there .... " explained the wolves.... The lumberjack showed their strategy for cases like this... " and then you can get as much leaves, flowers as you want.... what do you think" They all laugh and agreed for the strategy.
The strategy was fire.... with the menace they would accept anything... so they did started a fire from the surroundings... ... soon the greedy bears and wolves thought that the flames weren't high enough so burnt some more fossils.... and just laugh with their shiny teeth and slobbery mouth ..... 
The Passenger and Owl couldn't believe what they eyes were testifying ..... all the efforts, pains, and joy were being consumed now in flames..... anyhow their mission sense, made them fought the irated and ruthless flames till exhaustion, even more that they could bear..... they cried together, none has see that coming.
The evil had been spread around the fence, over the trees.... the consumed area was extensive, the only smell in the air now, was from the ashes mixed with raw of the black coal left...  
The Bears and Wolves sniffed around hoping to get some share .... but there was no flower, no perfume left..... even the lumberjack turned away when realized that the wood wasn't good enough as their intended. Slowly all that fuss turned off.. All the spectators left the show, there was nothing left to be seen or even worth to take away.... The remaining Owl and Passenger just stood there waiting ... repairing the damages as they could..... just trying to figure what went wrong .... 
The Trees were alive though.... 
The Passenger took a long look towards the Trees , and stated to the Owl....
" Its time for me to leave, i can't go on here anymore..... my strengths are gone; I did more than I could... everything were at the nature own path, we did know that from the very beginning;b I know that we travelled so far together.... and the way will always be long and difficult .... but i promise that we will find each other in another journey". The Owl willingly accepted it.... although in a costly fashion; she couldn't believe that this journey just went to an end... and for that .... couldn't understand, so stammered...... " Maybe is for the better"
And with an embarrassed smile and a fading sun in the landscape.... the Passenger said goodbye and walked alone the hill with no thoughts this time.... just  peace on his mind waiting for the next journey to come.

Did your heard about my movie?

I remember when i was in University, when i missed 1999 "Fight Club" movie with  ... and my friends came to me telling how overwhelmed they were with the whole film ... they had reason.
Later I saw it and became also very surprised for the ending, (specially the end). I was very sceptic about it, because of movie's title.... "Like the 80's martial arts movies" (i thought); It happened that the whole movie development was amazing; David Fincher made an interesting metaphor for society rules (for the time and present) and how schizophrenic it can be to accept being mainstreamed or standardized without any aware of it... cherry at the top of the cake... "where is my mind " from the Pixies




Nevertheless if I made a movie, a sort of an action/drama one,  i would like that would end with Lou Reed's "perfect day"  which could actually suit to the end of the fight clubs movie with the implosions..... hey, is just an opinion....

World buzz latest

Ukraine, Venezuela .... escalates on violence and death.... is this what governors want, pain for their citizens? Although in different paths in what have caused such violence, the results appear to be similar.
 As i write before, what about citizens own interest? Who as legitimacy to determinate how a society should evolute?  Nowadays everyones has an opinion about everything (even I do!!!), but as long as these opinions won't dictate rules, or spread fear and terror....
As long as a territory and gov seeks for true peace, and well being to achieve citizens will/ desires, I guess its sovereignty shouldn't be threaten or even questioned for anyone. But in these cases, freedom has some side and human costly effects, and as we can see, when everyone wants to influence or force a path, turbulence just grows as an hungry loose beast....
So what to do then? In democratic societies, if citizens decide and want a different desires than govs, they should be responsible for it; Govs are citizens mandates, or "employees" they should entirely respect that issue, else, it will be endless fights, in a chaotic scenario.
