+40C during the day, and +30C during the night. And some thoughts.

You know what means? No bloody sleep! Impossible... Yesterday Sydney was BOILING. It was impossible to sleep. So instead of laying in bed I was floating around in the swimming pool while listening to Ambient music, That was nice tho! About 6 in the morning I tried to get some sleep, think I drifted of about 8 in the morning. So I have to say... I miss Swedish winter...

Today a storm is coming tho. 18+C outside, LOVELY. And this week Sydney is getting a cold front, which is awesome! I give the weather 5 out of 5 toasters! * * * * *

While I was floating around there looking at the stars my thoughts in my head started spinning around.

We come into this world alone with nothing. We leave this world alone with nothing. So why do we consume so much? Why not put that money into something that gives you wonderful memories and experiences that you can take with you to the last second that you breath? work to LIVE, don't live to work. If you ask yourself. Why do I work? If you answer is "So I can pay my rent, buy gadgets, pay of all my bills, car loan etc" and nothing more... What's the meaning with life then?

You are basically going in a loop. Consume, work, eat, sleep, consume etc. I guess that's what the world wants us to do. BUY more! so we richer folk gets richer. But what kind of life is that?

You will probably say, "But I want to get a good job so I get a awesome pension so I live my life when I retire" Do you think you can do all the things you wanted to do when you were young, when your 60+ ? And what if you died? All that hard work for nothing..

There is no "Game over" and then "try again", but wherever I look, I feel like people think there is another life... Cause they are not doing what they truly want to do. I guess we call this the "comfort zone" That they are currently in. And it's deadly...

So if you don't have a baby on the way. Like one of my m8t's said "The world is your playground, Have fun, explore etc, and when you hit your 30+. Then you have to start thinking about kids etc."

So break loose. You can do whatever you want. And let no one JUDGE you.

I end post with a Walt Whitman poem

"Allons! the road is before us!
It is safe--I have tried it--my own feet have tried it well--be not
detain'd!
Let the paper remain on the desk unwritten, and the book on the
shelf unopen'd!
Let the tools remain in the workshop! let the money remain unearn'd!
Let the school stand! mind not the cry of the teacher!
Let the preacher preach in his pulpit! let the lawyer plead in the
court, and the judge expound the law. "
