The other day I realized that my website can only hold ~1 million files. I’ve hit the limit several times, and had to go back and delete old files to free up new space.
But came the question to me:
Do I feel OK with having “only” 1 million files as an upper-limit?
Which made me think more about the philosophical notion of limits vs unlimited.
You’re free as a bird, the third eye looking into the sky
Why do you feel so chained? Is it in your brain, or in your hands? Are you addicted to the marks and brands? Do you doubt, or do you can?
You can do anything you want. But how bad do you want it?
You’re free to pursue your passion and what makes you feel alive. You’re free to thrive— beyond survive. What you need is a dose of naive thinking, without the weed and drinking.
Embrace the mind of a kid and child— have fun, play, and go wild.
You’re free my friend. Live your life today as if you could live your life without end!
When I talk about art, I consider it extremely loose and open. Art as anything which is superfluous in life, which brings us aesthetic joy and delight. Art as non-utilitarian.
While legislation to set a standard “8 hour workday†was good to prevent workers from being exploited to have to work 14+ hour workdays, if also seems to have been a huge detriment, making it the standard to work at least 8 hours a day (not less).
One philosophical notion from Taoism I find absolutely fascinating— that of “wu weiâ€â€” which means “action without actionâ€, or “effortless actionâ€. Here is what I think it means and how I apply it to my own life:
Uber small, always with me, super close macro ability, phenomenal dynamic range, the most sublime JPEG for high contrast monochrome, even smaller than Ricoh GR II (more pocketable), and convenience of charging USB-C (same as my MacBook pro charger).
Necessity is the mother and the source of all innovation. When we need to innovate, we will discover new innovations. We don’t need to force innovations — seeking to innovate for the sake of making money, etc.
Perhaps this means:
Don’t seek innovation for the sake of innovation. Perhaps it is better to innovate for the sake of dealing with problems or issues which actually affect our real lives.
For too long philosophers, thinkers, and common people have believed the body and soul (spirit) to be separate. But what if the body and soul were one in the same? Two sides of the same coin.
Striving to be “goodâ€at something. But instead, I believe we should strive to be GENUINE— authentic, real, naked, exposed, transparent, and courageous to own your own opinion, thoughts, and beliefs!
