Thus spoke Nietzche

I woke up in the middle of night startled. It was a thunderstorm. All I could think of is who killed Jack. I suddenly remembered he quoted Nietzsche weeks ago.

He had said “Of all that is written, I love only what a person has written with his own blood.”

I have fits of inspiration to write something obtuse after reading 36 pages of "Thus spoke Zarathustra". But I am so drenched with the book that all I can think of now is Metamorphosis of spirit into camel, camel into lion, lion to child. Yashu is beyond the 36 pages mark, meaning "The Lost Symbol" clearly isn't a thought provoking book.

I already know what I want to read next. "A Mathematician's Apology". The best part is that it is an essay and it's freely available on that link.

Mr. Nietzsche has something to say about "On Reading and Writing" so back to the book.

Thus spoke Kalkoholism.

Note to self: Concentrate!

Scarlet Love

DailyLit is having 50 word mini-crime-noir challenge. My first attempt with meek masala story.

Scarlet Love
---------------
It was so swift and surreal that he wasn't aware of the blood drenched shirt. But he knew in his heart that, betrayal had to end. He could hear the sirens coming for him. Only reason he lived was no more. One deep breath and he jumped into the darkness.

Good Habits!


Lately I have been having problems with continuing my good habits that I have started. For that matter coming to think of it I have had that problem for eternity it seems. For instance I started reading a book for couple of days and then I gave up on it and then I started another. Right now I have started 3 books and I can’t seem to have the drive to finish it. I didn’t realize this until Yashu pointed this to me. Looks like I am having commitment issues to my books after being committed. On related note Yashu has accused me of conning her, by telling her that I was/am an avid reader. That is another reason to finish what I have started.
The Crux of the problem is the amount of “good habits” that I have been generating per day. I am like the cottage industry of “good habits”. Now that I have identified the problem I think it should be easier to limit them.

On a different note I woke up last night when a photosynthetic alien attacked me. Way better than unnecessary weird health insurance nightmares.

Note to self: Go easy on NPR and black coffee.

Opinions

I often wonder how it is to have an opinion about everything in the world. I could never imagine myself having an job in which all I have to do for living is have an opinion. Not really sure what failed in my system, whether it was just my upbringing, education or mutation. Something terribly went wrong. Another thing to fret about on another sleepless night.

Melancholiness

If I could cast aside my bad memories like Dumbledore then I wouldn't have had sleepless night like this. Nonetheless blogging might do me some good. I have couple of memories to cast aside.

A girl backed into my car while I was parking. I am feeling low that my awesome car is dented!On another note my TV decided to die on me while I was watching Entourage! And then my phone decides to have it's way and commit self suicide.

Time to replace those memories with iPhone, 50" TV and Silver Civic in that order.
