A HACKER'S JOY

Simple Pleasures


Life is not really complicated if you come to think of
it. Often it is characterized and lined with pleasant and unpleasant
experiences. It's a cycle of this and that... appearing in every stage
of life. It starts when you're born and ends when you die. In between
you have years in the kindergarten, elementary, high school, college,
getting employed or running a business, middle age and then your twilight
zone.

Going through life as you travel the timeline to twilight a lot of knowledge is
accumulated  either by design or coincidence. Joy, frustrations, failures,
and success in the fields that you've been mount up and then at a certain point 
you begin to realize life is really that simple. Nothing to it. It's short no matter
how long you may have outlived your peers or anybody for that matter.

You start to seek what you've been called for. You may be a carpenter, a doctor,
bus driver, a plumber, a lawyer, a musician, a painter or anything. And when
you've answered your calling you get to sit and relax and are now able to
savor life with a peace of mind.

Now is the time to see life with better enjoyment. Life no longer bores
you even with simple pleasures. Now one becomes like a child again
playful and carefree.

That's why when i'm not doing my art I sit in a cafe and do "people watching".
Sip my coffee, watch beautiful women, listen to the music and the human noise. 
It keeps me alive and kicking. You oughta try it sometime.

that's all folks!
