Hehe, yeah my drug running post was very enlightening.

Nothing better than to live without strees it's the best thing, and I simply feel pity for those who surround themselves with the worries and then get all PRE-occupied for nothing dude just take care of it when it happens Occupy don't Pre-whatever-it!

Y'know someone I knew always quoted Kenny Rogers saying "know when to hold 'em know when too fold em'." In a way I like to think thats me. Stress can be good without it we have little motivation to do anything or change for the better. However you have to pick your battles and not worry about the things you cannot change. Know when to hold and know when to fold.

I resolved the other day to not work after 26. I am devising a diabolical plan now to get passive income so I don't have to work with stupid people.*

How's the plan going Jake?

I try not to let myself over stuff I consider to be trivial. I stress about enough already. Sometimes, a really good rant/vent is so therapeutic.

**TheJake** · 04-21-2006, 02:19 PM

It's coming along nicely... i just have yet to develop the diabolical part

Echeverry · 04-21-2006, 04:06 PM

Well my philosophy has gotten me a long way! most of my strees free motto has been taken from a french kids book called Ami, el niño de las estrellas(Ami, the kid from the stars. . . yep I read it in spanish). It explains that the worse thing in this plane is the Ego, and that pre is just trying to take control of something that has not happened yet, therefore you can't do anything about it other than strees out for no good reason. Oh I'm reading The Warrior Woman, good book!

Beware of fulfilling your dreams people beware.

One has to grasp the astonishing finesse that the value of life cannot be estimated. If it could then all our efforts would be nought and all would be lost. Every joy depends on sadness, and this is certainly no reason for despair. Everything is beautifully fated, every roll of the dice, and all good and bad acts, since everything that has come to pass has achieved the astonishing feat of preserving the human race thus far. Lets hear it for good, for evil, and for the gnostics.

Jake, I totally get that whole stress free deal. We really see eye to eye on that one. But I can't help feel like someone out there has already explored this deeply, before it crossed either of our minds....

...who could it be...

....or right. These two

Hakuna Matata, friend. It means no worries for the rest of your days.

**TheJake** · 04-24-2006, 11:08 AM

That's right baby!

It was my ringtone. Now i've been rocking Magnum PI but it was hakuna for a longlong time

Some things that I consider trivial are extraordinarily important to countless other people.* And some shit that makes me stress like crazy may not even register on someone else's radar.* That's the beauty of life:* not all the same things are important to all people, all the time.* I don't like being bogged down by the minutiae of "small" stuff either, but if all everyone ever did was sit around and look only at the "big picture", nothing would ever get done.* Ever.
