But 'light' keeps you awake?


Yes. It may seem a paradox. But it takes so much work to perceive light.


He has perceived the 'light'?

I think its fluke.


Thinking and light, or fluke those are different things. Light is about sight. What do you see? Or, what can you see? Fluke?


But to see what you don't know? Know what you don't see?


Whose puzzle is this?

You have an interesting understanding of Time and Life.

What you are describing is giving attention... not time.

Time cannot be given or received or taken.

But i digress...


Back to topic!!!


Is it really a digression? How long does it take a bird to build a nest compared to a human paying for a house? Or is it 'how much attention'?

'Maisha ni mteremko', or the measures of what makes a 'good' or 'ideal' life run the risk of being too simplistic. It's better to be quiet than make these assertions.

A good starting point is looking at the 'problem of evil'. In most of our mythology evil is a cause of great concern. Do rats and bats care about evil? How does the experience of evil determine behavior?

Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.

Then I have seen a colleague of mine wolf down a whole bag of simiti for lunch in one hour.

Sad.

@Maich, can you give attention without giving time or using time to do so?

Never crossed my mind! smile

This fella though, he's nearly every bit as wrong as the materialistic affluenza-stricken workaholics. Well, at least in my book.

In my view, the ideal is somewhere in the middle. Sure I don't want to spend 30 years paying for a house, but I don't want to knock together a mud hut in 2 days and cringe every time I hear the thunder. Sure I don't need to wear Armani, but I don't want to be in tatters either. And I sure as hell want to fly in a balloon over the Mara and travel the world if I can. Balance. Life is about balance.
