Vice Free but Vicious

-


Yes, honey, like it or not, admit it or not, most of us have vices. I am not only referring to the “hardcore”, common ones such as gambling, drugs, alcohol, cigarettes, porn, blah-blah. I am also talking about the “innocent” addictions such as social media, excessive shopping, coffee, salt, sugar, fast food, nail-biting, gossiping, complaining, and yes, that yum-yum sexy body oh him or her…

All those bad habits or addictions have weaknesses as a foundation, and some of those weaknesses are moral such as arrogance, greed, envy, anger, lust, or laziness.

Ok, we have vices, what now?

#1. Own it

Yes, admitting it is the first step to cure it.

#2. Replace it

Reinstate a new healthy, good habit to replace the current bad one.

#3. Moderation

Reduce it to a point when it’s no longer dangerous or damaging.

Eventually, be vice free but be vicious... figuratively :)

RANDOM: Jealousy, Intentions & Co.

-

Since nobody owns anyone, one thing is for sure, there is no valid reason for someone to feel jealous, ever.  Jealousy is a useless feeling born out of fear and insecurity, that will eventually drain out the energy of the person who feels it.  If someone worries that someone else might come and steal away their partner, then maybe they should not be in that " situationship " in the first place. If you cannot trust your partner, the foundation is already broken.  Disclaimer: To avoid any fucked up feelings, look for someone who has the same intentions or goals as you do.  Want a relationship? Look for someone who also wants to commit and has a real interest in you. Chose someone willing to be loyal to you despite the fact that you both are surrounded by other "hot, take me to bed" alternatives. Get to know each other, build up respect & trust as those are the foundation for love. Butterfly feelings come and go but a moral foundation and strong character remain. S...

It’s just one of these days when all I want to do is to be LAZY… Lazy in bed, lazy on the sofa, actually… I want to be lazy anywhere I can be lazy, as long it is cozy & comfy. Guess it’s the season outside that got me in the mood that makes me want to stay under the covers, read a magazine… read? No, actually check on the fashion photography in there for self-inspiration. Yes, I am in the mood for jazz music playing in the background, lit scented green apple candle & drinking wine... Yes, white & dry for me, please. Even when lazy, I need something to do, something to keep me away from boredom so…  Here are some of my ideas on what to do when lazy: #1 Declutter phone, agenda, apps, photo gallery, etc. trust me, I bet that at the end, the phone will feel lighter :))) #2 Cleaning the Facebook friends list could be an idea… don’t want any “surveillance cameras” there :P #3 Another go-to is reading about stuff that you are interested in. I am currently learning more about ...

Horror Love Story

With  Halloween in just two days, I wanted to say that I was never a horror movie genre fan as I hate to get scared or feel frightened.  But I remember that there was a time when each Friday night, ProTv was streaming after the X - Files , a horror movie. So… I remember watching Poltergeist when I was a kid, I believe I was around 7-8 years old… and I watched it from the top of the living room table, holding both of my hands, each one on one of my eyes, staring at the screen between my fingers… I was afraid for the next two weeks after that, that the TV might suck me into it. I hardly wanted to watch any TV. :))) I don’t even want to mention The Ring … I stopped watching it in the first 50 minutes… Still, there is one horror movie that I love, it’s Francis Ford Coppola’s Dracula (1992). Besides that, it has Gary Oldman, Keanu Reeves, and Anthony Hopkins in distribution, and their acting is mindblowing, the movie it is a mix of romance as the plot builds around Dracula’s obs...
