In a Melancholy Mood

Today I was in a rather melancholy mood and contemplating how many things in life that can go wrong. And also how many things in life that actually go right the way they should!

This doesn't mean I was in anyway sad or down, just thinking about stuff that happened in life while I was chillin´ to great music. (Thank you, Balp Allen!)

It´s good not to be in constant IM when you are in SecondLife, it gives you time for thought.

Living the Life Fantastic

It´s definitely not easy being a SLebrity these days. The Linden Lab has told me they cannot take responsibility for my safety as Chairman of the Board of The BMcM Corporation if I didn´t hire some lifeguards, especially considering some of the sims I visit.

The guys accompanying  me on the picture were the only two I could find in a rush. They look sorta cheesy but are rather sweet and make me feel safer.

The blond one is Michail, he is Russian and an ex-hockey player on their National team. The Latino with the beard is Pepe, he used to be a professional wrestler and "actor" in the adult film industry before he recently decided to go into a career in security.

Gary Moore - In Memoriam

Robert William Gary Moore (4 April 1952 – 6 February 2011), known as simply Gary Moore, was a musician best recognized as a blues rock guitarist and singer from Belfast, Northern Ireland.

Reagan Centennial

Ronald Wilson Reagan (February 6, 1911 – June 5, 2004) was the 40th President of the United States (1981–1989), the 33rd Governor of California (1967–1975) and prior to that, a Hollywood actor.

As a European this moment is what I will mostly remember him for. This and his trip to China.

Oh yeah, I almost forgot, he looked awesome as a young man and on a stamp also.

Synopsis

"Let us suppose that we're all just a temporary mishmash of dots on a screen. All of our energy, personality and uniqueness is just a collection of bouncing color dots creating seemingly meaningful patterns we call a virtual world. Zoom in and you are a sea of dots with no form. Zoom back and you're just a spot on the map."

I Am Backing Off

The hurt feelings, the upset emotions, the rehashing of memories of old wrongdoings and the constant scratching on the scabs are a formidable Gordian Knot that hurt and hamper the Swedish community in SecondLife.

For a long while I have tried to understand what it was about and even perhaps to assist in healing it. This will end now. I have now come to the realization that I was not born to bring the Alexandrian solution to this festering mess and I have better things to do with my life, my time and my limited resources of empathy, love and understanding. Especially since I now suspect that none of them really want it solved, it gives them something to do.

I am now backing off and bowing out of this. I will leave it to the involved parties themselves to solve it or die with the bitter taste of hate in their mouths. Keep me out of it!

The Important Things

Focus on the important things in life, all else is a waste of time and energy and is only useless drama. Don´t ever let yourself be sucked in and dragged down by the Celeste´s of your world.

The most important things in my first and second life right now are:

1. Freedom


2. Sanity


3. Love
