۳۹۸ - حس‌های درهم و برهم من

 خیلی وقته دیگه اینجا نمی‌نویسم. نه اینکه نخوام، بیشتر شبیه این ه که نمی‌تونم. آخرین باری که نوشتم همین‌جا نشسته بودم که الان نشستم. فقط فرقش اینه که دسته‌ی صندلیم اون موقع درست بود بعد که باز شد برعکس بستمش.

الان هم که نشستم اینجا، انگار تمام چیزهایی که درپوش گذاشتم روشون در این سال‌ها، داره زبونه می‌کشه از توی شکمم به بالا، قلبم رو، ریه‌هام رو، و گلوم رو می‌گیره. از اون ور هم میره پایین، پشت ساق‌هام رو می‌گیره. بعد یهو انگار همه‌ی این زبونه‌ها، تسمه می‌شن و کشیده می‌شن به سمت شکمم. قلبم فشرده می‌شه، نفسم می‌گیره، گلوم بسته میشه و پاهام به یه حال گزگزی می‌افته.

یه شبی بود که من نشسته بودم تو خونه، دکتر صفری داشت میومد که بمونه اونجا برای دوران آموزشیش چون به پادگان نزدیک‌تر بود. وارد شد و دید چمدون من اونجا دم در ه. بعد این طوری بود که خب داستان چیه گفتم امشب میرم. گفت خب کی برمی‌گردی؟ گفتم می‌خوام که هیچ‌وقت. البته که از اون موقع چند باری برگشتم ولی خب حس می‌کردم که کنده بودم خودم رو از ایران. یادمه حتی یک بار به بابام گفتم که دلم می‌خواد برم یه جای دنیا، پاسپورتم رو بندازم توی صندوق پست. دلم می‌خواد ایرانی نباشم. از همه‌ی این کثافت من خسته‌ام.

و من هنوز هم خسته‌ام. ولی الان هم خسته‌ام از ایرانی بودنم، هم خسته‌ام از این‌که «این کار دله / گناه من نیست / تقصیر دله» و نمی‌تونم براش هیچ‌کاری بکنم. خسته‌ام از این که هر روز یک بخشی از وجودم به این میره که بزنم این جنگ خودم رو با خودم پایین توی وجودم. خسته‌ترم از این که حاضر نیستم قبول کنم دو سر این جنگ باخته. و خسته‌ام از این که هر چی میشه، بلااستثنا، کنار نمیام.

یه روز با خودم جنگ دارم که چرا هنوز انقدر زبون فارسی رو دوست دارم. یه روز با خودم دعوا دارم که چرا برام مهمه توی ایران چی می‌شه. یه روز هم با خودم ستیز می‌رم که چرا هنوز ارتباطاتم توی ایران رو نگه می‌دارم.

هر چقدر این رو فشار می‌دم پایین، باز یه بگایی پیش میاد. یه روز توی آمستردام از خواب پامیشم و می‌بینم شب قبلش اسرائیل حمله کرده به ایران و مردم دارن فرار می‌کنن. یه روز دیگه توی آمستردام دارم راه می‌رم و اینترنت‌های ایران قطع می‌شه و من وسط یه خیابون در یک محله خیلی دور از خونه‌ی خودم می‌شینم یه کناری و شروع می‌کنم مثل بچه‌های سه ساله همین‌طوری اشک ریختن تا یه پیرمرد ترکی که داره رد میشه بیاد یه شیشه آب بده دستم و باهام حرف بزنه تا برگردم به واقعیت.

یه روز دیگه توی استانبول نشستم تو خونه‌ام و توییتر و اینستا رو بالا پایین می‌کنم که ببینم چه خبره توی ایران، و انقدر عصبی می‌شم از همه چیز که یهو به خودم میام می‌بینم قلبم داره صد تا می‌زنه حال آنکه همین‌طوری که نشستم ۶۰ تا هم نمی‌زنه.

هر وقت هر چیزی می‌شه، دندون‌قروچه‌هام شدت می‌گیره شب‌ها. هر وقت به هر کدوم از بچه‌های تیم پیام میدم و چند دقیقه دیرتر جوابم رو می‌دن دلم هزار راه میره. هر وقت زنگ می‌زنم به مامان یا بابام و تو سه چهار زنگ جواب نمی‌دن قلبم میاد توی دهنم.

بعد در کنار تمام اینها، یک سری اتفاق می‌افته توی داستان‌های سیاست ایران که واقعا با عقل سلیم که هیچی، با یک قرون عقل ناقص خیلی از آدم‌ها هم میشه در موردش نتیجه‌گیری کرد که هر کاری غیر از این پنج رفتاری که رسیده به اینجا درست‌تر بوده ولی خب گویا عقل سلیم خیلی محلی از اعراب نداره برای اکثر عزیزان.

این میشه که من می‌مونم و حوضم. من می‌مونم و این احساساتی که سال‌ها روشون درپوش گذاشتم که یهو می‌زنن بیرون و من رو این‌طوری برده‌ی خودشون می‌کنن. من از این بدم میاد، هرچند که بهم یادآوری می‌کنه که زنده‌ام و تعلق دارم به جایی و چیزی، ولی من از این تعلق متنفرم و خسته. و بلد هم نیستم که کاریش کنم که بره، و بلد هم نیستم که باهاش کنار بیام.

۳۶۸ - تهران

من به تهران علاقه دارم، شاید هم داشتم. قسمت اولش بر کسی پوشیده نیست، اینکه این فعل تبدیل به گذشته شده یا نه، اینجا نشستم با یک شیشه آبجو کنار دستم برای پر کردن شکمم و یه سری آهنگ پاپ در حال پخش برای پر کردن گوشم، که بنویسم و این رو بفهمیم.

من برگشتم تهران، خیلی وقت پیش، برای اینکه یه گهی بخورم، یه چیزی بسازم، و برای یک سری آدم مفید باشم.
گه زیاد خوردم، چیز میز هم زیاد ساختم، یه سری‌هاش رو تنها، یه سری‌هاش رو با کمک بقیه، تو یک سری چیز هم که بقیه ساختن صرفا مشغول کمک بودم. این وسط آدم هم زیاد ساختم، و البته مشخصا یه تعداد آدم رو هم از ریشه زدم خراب کردم به دلیل علاقه‌ی بیش از حدم به دخالت در امور جاری و تجربه‌ی کمم در دخالت در امور جاری.

احتمالا مهم‌ترین نقطه‌ی پایینم توی دورانی که پیاپی تهران بودم، این بود که یه جایی دیگه انقدر بهم فشار اومد که روابطم رو با اکثر افراد خانواده‌ی مادری به صفر مطلق رسوندم، و در مورد بقیه هم روی «دوری و دوستی» تمرکز کردم. نقاط اوج هم که ماشالله یکی پس از دیگری. با این همه آدم خفن آشنا شدم، کلی مهمونی باحال رفتم، باشگاه رفتیم مقدار زیادی، و خب چند تا رابطه‌ی عجیب و غریب و تعداد کمی رابطه‌ی «منطقی» رو تجربه کردم. کارهای عجیب، شراکت‌های عجیب‌تر، خروجی‌های به‌دردنخور یا خروجی‌های شدیدا خفن.

شاید تنها چیزی که بگم توی تهران همیشه رو به جلو بود و همواره خروجی رو به بالا، دوستان نزدیکم بودن. نمی‌گم اتفاق‌های عجیب نیفتاده در اون زمینه که بالطبع افتاد، ولی همیشه آخرش همه چیز درست شد. ولی خب بعد یه روز به خودم اومدم و درصد خوبی از اون دوست‌ها از ایران رفته بودن و بقیه هم داشتن می‌رفتن.

خوش گذشت توی تهران به من، ولی از یک جایی به بعد، دردش هی بیشتر و بیشتر و بیشتر شد. اولاش فکر می‌کردم به خاطر این داره دردش بیشتر می‌شه که روز به روز از اون چیزی که متصور بودم داره دورتر می‌شه با کثافت‌های سیاسی و اقتصادی‌ای که نظام مقدس داشت به شهر عزیزم می‌زد، ولی بعد یهو به خودم اومدم و دیدم که نه، هر چقدر این شهر با من خوب بوده، هر چقدر اکثر آدم‌های توی این شهر با من خوب بودن، ولی اون‌هایی که بد کردن، خیلی بد کردن، طوری که دردش به جونم مونده، خیلی عمیق‌تر از چیزی که از اون خوبی‌ها و خوش‌حالی‌ها روم گذاشتن. حالا من تا جایی که خودم فهمیدم، و احتمالا اگر دارین این رو می‌خونین شما هم فهمیدین، خیلی کینه‌ای نیستم. شاید حتی کلا نیستم. نمی‌دونم. ولی خب گویا اون بدی‌ها خیلی بدتر از چیزی بوده که در نگاه اول دیدم و فهمیدم.

یه بار داشتم با خانم دکتر حرف می‌زدم و گفتم «تهران برام شده مثل یه شکست عشقی بزرگ. بین فلان کار و رابطه‌ام با فلانی، انگار همه چیز تهش یه خط گنده انداخت روی من» البته که ایشون در اون زمان صحبتی نکردن ولی حس می‌کنم در پس علم زیاد خودشون به جمع‌بندی رسیدن که خب من اون موقع نرسیدم. چند بار دیگه هم فکرام به همین‌جاها رسید، و این چند روز که مامان پیشم بود، خیلی حرف زدیم در مورد مسائلی که این چند سال پیش اومد، و خب که دارم این رو می‌نویسم حس می‌کنم که گویا اون جمع‌بندی خیلی هم بی‌راه نبوده.

من دوست داشتم تهران رو، و گویا از یک جایی به بعد دیگه انقدر اذیتم کرده بود که دوستش نداشتم. حالا اینکه چرا و چی شد و اینها، دیگه گذشت ولی خب، این جمع‌بندی باید تایید می‌شد یک بار.

فکر کنم با توجه به اوضاع فعلی تهران، با همه‌ی گندهایی که بهش خورده، صدقه سری جمهوری فخیمه‌ی اسلامی، احتمالا جمع‌بندی ذهنیم در مورد تهران این دو بیت اول غزل شهریار باشه

از تو بگذشتم و بگذاشتمت با دگران / رفتم از کوی تو لیکن عقب سرنگران
ما گذشتیم و گذشت آنچه تو با ما کردی / تو بمان و دگران وای به حال دگران

367 - Weakness

"To err is Human, to forgive divine"

I have no problem with making mistakes. I know I've done so many, and I know that I've committed so many mistakes that I'm not even aware of. I never had problems with making mistakes, I just tried to forgive myself first and then try to understand where what went wrong, go around asking people about what went on and how it could have gone better. I was blessed with a high count of high calibre family, acquintaces and friends, so those searches were nearly always fruitful.

So, one mistake lead to another, and I learned how to land safely, and developed good sense of forgiveness towards myself, and towards others as well. I went on and became divine, when errors happened. And don't even think for a second that mistakes rarely happen, cause they don't. They happen in bunches, and sometimes I see my self dealing with a large brigade of mistakes, but well, forgiveness grows as well.

Decisions are made in the brain, with a touch of hormonal activity and a dash of reflexes commanded by spinal cord. Brain is the king, and as I've mentioned this funny, but overwhelmingly true sentence a thousand times "Brain is the only part of body which chose it's own name". So, naturally the brain running this body has put a heavy force behind making sure it's forgiving it's own mistakes.

The process is very different when it comes to other parts of my body. My brain has developed a zero bullshit tolerance policy for when it comes to other limbs of the body. A typical short dialog in my brain when there is something I think I should not be doing, due to physcial weakness

- the spirit is willing but the flesh is weak
+ SHUT UP and do it.

Enter, the physical limitations. The flesh is weak, the brain is forceful, and then there are limits to it, physically enforced. Sickness and tiredness, the physcial banes, are there and I can't do something. I'd sit, rest, eat healthy stuff and get on medication to get better, but the brain is not willing to accept the given physical limitation and facts. And what does that leave me with? A really pissed off mind, while the body is suffering elsewhere as well.

That, my dear, is the recipe for the disaster that has been taxing me.

Let me clarify with a recent example that lead to this blog post. I went over my left ankle around 10 days ago, while I was walking out of the gym. I was just sitting there, in front of our homie gym with a cold pack on my left ankle, sweating cold from the pain, and I could just hear my brain shouting "Get Up, Get Up!" and then when after 10 minutes or so I got up to walk home, I was limping ( Daaah! ) and I could just sense the frustration building up in my head. The cold sweats turned normal, and by the time I got home, I was over whelming pissed. Did I take an "L"? You bet your ass I didn't. I went to have it checked, to make sure I didn't break anything because the cold sweat was rather unprecedented, and while doing checkups, I just walked over the ankle up and down the hall to do the payment and go to XRay and back to doctor and all and all, rejecting any help offers.

By the time I realized nothing is broken and got back home, I was furious. I was flat out red, and I wanted to break things ( Spoiler: I didn't ) My ankle recovered fully in around 5 days, and it took me one day on top of that to get a hold of my brain again.

I've been going over this for the past couple of days, even when I was busy elsewhere, the clock kept running behind my head, And I'm just trying to find a solution past this. To make my brain respect my body and it's problems, as much as it respects it's own capability of producing errors.

366 - 30

 ( Context : What I wrote for turning 20 can be viewed here )

So, I turned 30 today, and I look as young as I looked back when I was 22 [Nice!] It's been ten years and half a day since I wrote about turning 20 on this blog. This decade of mine was the heaviest so far. I've returned home, had a couple of nasty arguments with friends and a couple of love arrangements and breakups ( yeah some of those were nasty too. ) Lost a couple of family member, as well you know how people just straight up die, and lost a couple of friends to this weakness of humans too.

I've failed in a couple of professional edavours, succeeded in a couple as well. I managed to run a small company to the ground with help of two other friends, and I managed to run a small company with a couple of friends and make it big through the years.

I had two main agendas for the past ten years, and I think I have achieved both in the 90% score division.

  1. To expect less of others, and in the final form to have zero expections from others and always be ready for being let down.
  2. To ignore peoples small mistakes and to make sure others small mistakes won't stop me from being nice to them
Yeah, the first agenda made me lean less on others which kinda sucks, and the second one made me rather vulnerable at some points, but so is life and so it goes on.

To put it all in retrospect, I made some critical mistakes but they all played out for the best, so I really did enjoy my 20s.

Here is to a decade filled with laughter and joy that passed, and to one filled with more laughter and joy that is to come.
Cheers

365 - Far from Anything Good

.... is what this life is.

Yet we eat, sleep, work and commute to reach some made up, idiotic and shallow goals of ours.

We rush to our destinations like arriving a minute late is just gonna shake the earth to its core. We follow targets and meet OKRs like it matters in the grand scheme of things. We talk to people like our lifes change theirs and like theirs changes ours.

۳۶۴ - اوقات خوش آن بود

 با گروهی جمع بودیم و می بود و نشاط می‌رفت و همه خندان بودیم. صحبت از دوستان و زیبارویان و رفقای قدیم و جدید و گذشته و آینده بود و نام‌هایی از پسران به دور می‌گشت. صحبت از بزرگواری شد که چه خوش‌تیپ بوده و آفرین و اینها، و افسوس بسیار خوردیم از اینکه شکم «عرق‌خوری» تیپ و ظاهر زیبای ایشون رو بهم زده. یاد دورانی شباب کردم و خوشحالی‌هاش و چند بیتی که برای من نوشته بود پیش از عزیمت به غربت.

مقام امن و می بی‌غش و رفیق شفیق / گرت مدام میسر شود زهی توفیق

دریغ و درد که تا این زمان ندانستم / که کیمیای سعادت رفیق بود رفیق

363 - Why [ In the Blue Hell ]? Why?

 It's been nearly a year since I last wrote here. I mean, if I was writing this a week later, it was a day over a year since I wrote 362.

This has been how the past 4 years have gone on. I've become ever more closed to sharing with people, and more and more open to opening up discussions around bullshit, just so that my mind keeps at ease, knowing I'm "talking" to people.

It's not like I don't care for people, which I fucking do. It's that I just don't get tangible results of so many people caring about me, I've started giving up on people. Yes, there were countably many people who helped through the way, some more and some less, and if you are reading this first handed, you are one of the countably many [ while one of you definitely does not read this first handed ], but I've came to terms with the fact that I should not be having expectations from people around me.

Truth be told, I've been through shit for the entirety of 2021, and I've been helped by so many dear to me, and that was just so and that is past now.

I should work on opening up a little bit more, letting people know a bit more of valuable stuff about me, and hope for the best.

P.S : I know this probably has errors, but I just didn't give a rats ass.

362 - And then, there was one

It's been a while. I barely recall the last time I opened this page to write about something. I barely even recall half of the people whom I know used to read this blog.

I have changed through the past year, so has my goals, so has my circle of trust, and so has my thoughts.

I even changed the way I sleep at night, like literally, even the way my body poses while I sleep. That and the fact that my teeth grind against one another throughout the night. Last time I had that for this long, it was back when I was five. And then it got fixed, no one knows how. I had this coming and going for the rest of my life since then, but it was on the moments of stress, first timers, crap like that. But damn it has come to stay this time, and I don't recall a night through the past year which I didn't suffer from this, and I sure as hell don't recall a morning in the given time which I woke up without my jaw trying to keep away from my body, since it aches so bad.

It's been a while, for some so many things, and some I don't even miss.

But this last one I miss. I miss having a fine night sleep without grinding the hell out of my jaws. I get good enough of a sleep at nights, and my mind is relaxed, and I'm happy and energetic in the morning all right. But "O Good Gracious Lord" does my lower jaw hurt in the morning? And I miss that. I miss not having a painful jaw in the morning.

361 - Early Morning Rituals

You wake up in the morning to the smell of freshly brewed coffee, turn around to the sound of her steps before you open up your eyes, just to catch her shiny smile, first thing in the morning. Then you just realize she is wearing the shirt you were wearing the night before when you both got home. The smile on your face brightens. She come closer, mornin' she says, while leaning in to kiss you, tasting all the dreams you had the night before.

360 - When We're Gettin' Done

We are not here to last, since that's physically impossible.
But we can make something that lasts, for ages to come.

So, we are here to make something that lasts for ages.

I believe in that, and for that I try, I sweat, and I wipe them tears off, till I get it done.

Put it words in the song by Sick Puppies.

Define your meanin' of fun
To me it's when we're gettin' doneI feel the heat comin' off of the blacktopSo get ready for another one

359 - Sucking

You know, sometimes I feel like "I suck balls".
I mean, in the sense that I'm not even good to suck any dick out there, and all I can do is sucking balls.

358 - You've Gone Away [ Soon, to be! ]

I can't recall how many times I left you alone with this city. I can sit and count, but my mind just does not work that well right now.
But out of all the times I left you with this town alone, when I was gone for a semester, or when I was gone for a work period in Genapsys, I can sure recall how each time you looked forward to me coming back.
Now you are leaving. You are just leaving the town, and I'm not sure if you'll ever come back.
I can not stop you. I will not stop you.
Just please remember, if there was ever a storm around, and you were scared, I'm always going to answer your calls and calm you down.

[ Not my typical blog post. Heartache going on. Best I can do ]

I wanted you to know I love the way you laugh
I want to hold you high and steal your pain away
I keep your photograph, and I know it serves me well
I want to hold you high and steal your pain
[ Seether , Amy Lee - Broken ]

۳۵۷ - ورق

آره
راست می‌گی..
شاید یکی باشه که من خیلی دوست‌ش داشته باشم و هیچ وقت نفهمه.
آره لعنتی سبزه‌رو.
شاید تو باشی که من خیلی دوستت دارم، شاید تو باشی که من با خنده‌هات دیوانه‌وار فریاد می‌کشم، شاید تو باشی که وقتی حرف‌های منطقی می‌زنی دلم قنج بره و وقتی پای چت میگی «بغل» من خل شم.
و شاید، فقط شاید، تو هیچ وقت نفهمی که چقدر دوستت دارم احمق.

356 - I hope ...

It happened. I'm going to remember, it finally happened on a Tuesday morning.

My grandma can barely breathe now. She has been fighting with all kinds of sickness that comes with age, and recently she started getting weaker and weaker every week. I never believed, never wanted to believe that my one and only caring grandma is getting sick, is not able to live the life as she used. Never did I want to realize that she might be gone, sooner or later.

When I woke up on Tuesday morning, she couldn't breathe well any more. My mom took her to hospital, where they took some water out of her lungs, and hooked her on a device to help her breathe. She has devices strapped to her, helping her do the fundamental acts of a living human with ease, not having to put all her energy to breathe in or breathe out. When I was told about this, that moment I knew that my all powerful granny is powerless now. That moment I realized that she might leave us soon, way sooner than I always thought it might happen.

I can look at the past, and be happy for all the times I've shown her how much I loved her. For all the days that I payed her a visit on the way going home from school. For all the times I had a small change in my pocket as a kid, and I bought her some bread, so she can have dinner with some freshly baked bread. For all the days in the past months, leading to this hellish Tuesday, that I've been visiting her, although her ears barely heard any thing I said, although I had to shout every freaking single word.

I loved her, before it was late. And I'd be happy, with all I have done, for the rest of my life. I'd never look back, saying "Well, I should have shown my grandma more love."

But I sure as hell would be sorry for my uncles, for my cousins. For all of them. Over the past years, over the past 23 years, I've been the only grand child around. I've been the only grand child who actually gave her enough attention, after all she has done for all of us as children. Make no mistake, all of them are here in Tehran, and a lot of them live close by. My mom has been the only legitimate child for her over the course of past 5 years, and although two of her brothers are living in the same town, and one leaves in the same neighborhood, my mom has been the only child who has been caring for her mom.

So this is to you, my dear cousins and my dearest uncles. YOU SUCK! You didn't deserve a bit of the respect I've shown all of you as the youngest person in the family over the past years. You've left this poor old woman, your mom, your grandma, and when it finally happens, all of you would come around, wearing black, saying that you're sorry. But all the time she was alive and awake, did you ever think about her? Did you ever think to take an hour off your precious days and pay her a visit? Take a penny of your precious pockets and buy her a flower?
Non of you, and I mean non of you ever knew how to love, and none of you have ever deserved the smallest amount of love I've given you. Non of you deserved to call me your nephew, or to call me your cousin.

I hope, I just hope, that when all is said and done, I still have the strength to not punch any of you right in the face, asking you out loud in front of every one, that what on earth did you do for this person, for this person that you are crying for in her funeral.
I hope you all rot in your dumb ways of life, in this loveless, crappy life of yours.
And I hope, and I pray to God if any is out there, that I never go down the route of this loveless life of yours.

355 - Transition/Back

Is it destiny, is it accident? Do we even care?

I know I don't. All I care about these days is simple. I wake up, and the very first thing I feel is motivation. We all did awesome until now, and we are going to be more and more awesome as days pass. We have one direction, upwards. Upwards is all I care about right now.
It's all I should have ever cared about. But sometimes, just sometimes, I forgot what is important and what is not. But now, I'm all focused. All back on track. Don't you love it when this happens? I do.

I'm not planning to see what happened to me, why was I losing motivation. But I know right now, I'm all back on track, all planning to go Upwards, and not anywhere else.

So, this goes to all my awesome friends/colleagues here in Chaapaarak.
Thank you, for all the life you've put back in me.

353 - Brainless

We, as humans, have survived all the decades and centuries, and sadness has not gotten us and our minds down to dirt only because we have learnt how to counter what we don't like. We all know why we have survived this long. One word, "Brain".

Our brain is a fantastic machine. It knows how to make us happy, how to make us sad. Hell, it even made us call it "Brain" and not "Banana" or "Arsenal".

Through centuries, those of us who had stronger brains have been using it more than others, thus have achieved more. Our civilizations as parts, and the Human Civilization as a collective community has grown on the back of those whose brain has worked better.
Among our smart talents, those who have managed to fill their entire brain's capacity, have managed to live a fruitful and peaceful life. But those who failed in filling their brain, have suffered a fruitful yet not peaceful life.
If we let a fast brain to it's own device, it would make sadness out of any thing around, and it would make way to it's own fast and inevitable demise.

۳۵۲ - میر مست و خواجه مست و یار مست اغیار مست

صد و هفتاد پنج نفر رو بعد از این همه سال برگردوندند.
دلمون ضعف میرفت با هر کلمه ای که در موردشون می شنیدیم. با هر لحظه ای که بهشون فکر می کردیم.
هنوز هم نمی تونم تصور کنم اون مادرها بعد از این همه سال، وقتی بالاخره فهمیدند که چی بر سر بچه شون اومده، چی کشیدند.
ولی دم همه شون گرم. روحشون، اگر سرای دیگری هست، شاد.
من و هزاران هزار نفر دیگر، مدیون اونهاییم.

351 - Luis Suárez

I have never been a fan of his. Hell, I've never been a real soccer fan, after I got introduced to the pure sport, Basketball, and the pure competition in the form of NBA.

Recently, I've seen Suárez's picture around town a lot. He has been part of the Adidas campaign, #ThereWillBeHaters. [I can't congratulate Adidas enough on their awesome choice of him. We all know how hater-prone Suárez is. ]

This is it. This is all there is in this world. If you get a pair of new shoes, people are jealous, cause they want them to be theirs. Same goes for literally anything else.
You got a new, awesome job. Guess what, there are some of your acquaintances and friends, who are jealous.
In a world full of competition, this is the result. People start as being jealous after a competition, when they don't finish first. Through days and years, being a hater becomes normal, and people get used to it. Before you know it, you are being jealous, hating on people, for a competition you were never in.

Being jealouse, Hating, is not the way of good people. At some point you need to stop. Well, if you never started, that's perfect. But if you have started already, you need to stop. At some point, you need to stop being a part of a huge and wrong culture, the culture of hate.

It's dumb to hate.
Thanks for reminding me of that on daily basis, Adidas.

350 - Crazy

I have to admit, I've never felt this strong affections for any one. It just takes me around, in a spiral, higher, higher, and higher. Takes me high to such level that I lose track of time. I just come to my senses, realizing that we've had spent 4 hours with each other, driving around town, grabbing a bite somewhere, and a long hard discussion about a mixture of our topics of interest.

And what happens next? An old friend comes knocking. Knock Knock. Here comes the fucked up part of your brain, and he wants to screw all the things you made today. It comes, out of nowhere, and fucks everything left, right and center.
Part of my mind is going to spend the rest of the evening, finding reasons for me to blame myself, on what I did wrong throughout the mid-day with her. Then, when it is sure it has found it all, it goes back throughout the days, throughout people, acts, and days. Blames me for every piece of simple wrong act I had.

I fought you so hard, I kicked you out so bad, and now, that I started feeling better from all the pain you caused, suddenly you are back from hell, you freaking THOUGHT TUMOR!?


P.S: Title goes both for the state of mind, and for the awesome song by Aerosmith.
