Corona-Virus has probably been around longer than we initially expected. (Pre- 2020 there had been reports of severe flu-type symptoms prior to the panic we discovered ourselves in mid- March) Perhaps a rising of this pestilence is punishment from a 'divine source' rather than a mutation of horrific scientific human error. A number of conspiracy theorists suggest a potential deliberation of the administration of a designer disease created to generate mass hysteria and paranoia, breaking the constraints of society in order for absolute control. I thought I would share my aspect around this mainstream topic considering it has affected every microcosm of our psychological and physical reality, and it has impaired the natural course of our lifestyles and community values explored from a deeper sense of survival (and relearning these primal skills) Instead of the habitual, "How are you?" we have now alternatively transposed, "How are you coping with the ...

1. When people share a kitchen/ bathroom and don't clean up after them selves, worse still when nobody comes clean about the mess.🍳 2. The constant fear of damage to any of the furnishings would risk losing the deposit, and you ultimately in debt.📉 3. Other tenants accumulating their gear in the communal areas so as to mark their territory, they behave like they own the place.😐 4. Having to rely on the punctuality and service of the landlord/ agency if any thing goes wrong. Even they can take the piss.📴 5. Sharing with strangers can be petrifying. Always being paranoid that your food and laundry are going to get looted, is an anxiety that weighs awkwardly on your conscience. Unnecessary small-talk in and around the property is always a bit of a 'drag.'👜 6. Cleaning duties are stricter because its not in your name to trash the place. Some fair wear and tear policies get pushed to the limit. 🔨 7. Some tenants never actually meet or become familiari...

It is not surprising to feel a little bit disappointed when we throw out food that has turned defective and not suitable for human consumption. This is because of the amount of waste we produce in Britain has been rising due to our consumerist lifestyle lead by a capitalist society. We simply throw away things with out a second thought. We do not acknowledge that our minor actions have a great collective effect on the environment and over the course of time we are gradually incurring an energy crisis that is very taxing on millions of families across the UK. Therefore it brings me a lot of disdain when I find my self, philosophising over a stick of corn on the cob, commiserating about where it came from, how it was provided and whether or not I should continue to cook with it, since it smells very funky, frankly. I cannot tell if this is a metaphor for unnecessary anxiety or literally a test of my intelligence and Earthy - morale, so it brings me no pleasure in decision making, espe...

"Hypocrite! First get rid of the log in your own eye; then you will see well enough to deal with the speck in your friend's eye." Matthew 7:5 A few words can mean a lot, especially when they are aimed at a person's course of life - never mind the thoughts or opinions we babble on another person's humanity. Hence forth, I am writing this with as much open mindedness as possible, since I have recently undergone judgement my self, I know the trivialities which critique, and what the imposing questions of another person's life path occupy. Whether it be involving image (self consciousness and self esteem issues quickly rise to anxiety, depression and in serious cases, suicide) life style choices (everything from stoners to gym fanatics) a person's perspective/beliefs or lack of. Having a job or being unemployed, having children or complete lethargy, we should remind ourselves regularly, that we are only here to focus on our own progress not to sha...

I am a smoker of the last 5 years, with intermittent breaks, meaning I have managed to quit almost cold turkey for up to and over a month. Various online resources reveal contrasting statistics claiming that it is roughly 28-60 days to create or break a habit of one form or another, so this is not exclusive to smoking. I have been very serious about my smoking addiction and have gone to extreme measures to counteract the effect, in relation to its causes on my health, lifestyle and image. I have no doubt that the iconography depicting smokers have both a severe impact on our social status (whether we choose to adopt this particular scene or not) let alone our self-esteem or ambitions in life. It was suggested in another article I found on the web that smokers are more likely to be on a lower-income or incestuous around covert issues. I think that smoking is nothing more than an addiction, I do believe that a person has personal power to quit, however rem...

I am disappointed to hear about people saying that they are in a process of ''reinventing themselves''... End of relationship, New Employment, New Years Eve, Summer season. Purely because during this transformation, in essence they could lose who they truly are. Besides, if we are supposed to love ourselves unconditionally, then why should we be attempting to alter parts of us that essentially generates who we already are? Individuals.  2009 Furthermore, I believe that we must be vigilant of what we feed our brains, not just by the products we purchase or the food we eat, the drugs we use or the people we meet, but in our private containment. The media which we digest and the company we hunt, moulds our very character from the inside-out.  2015 For example, there are certain developments during puberty. The nature or nurture debate springs up especially in concern for ages 0 - 12, alas the terrible teens as it were, would be arguably the cr...

...You interpret the world abstractly, as if your life were in a movie and you were the protagonist of your own conceptualised reality. ...The Matrix / Inception provided all the  enthusiasm  and passion, necessary to apply for Media in the first place. CGI, SNM. ...You're supposed to be technologically adept but you still heavily rely on walkthroughs on random  internet   forums and wikiHow articles to learn how to do things in programmes such as Photoshop , which you should know by now from all those hours in lectures (!)  ...You spend weeks at a time on  YouTube  consuming volumes of information from Vloggers and other non-credible sources, perchance material for critical analysis, investigating the details that these small productions deliver, such as short films. ...Then when you steal ideas from these videos for your own coursework. ...Your best friends are the coders, designers and philoso...

"The gym is a playground for grown ups, and should be used in moderation, unless you're training for a competition or sporting event. Rehabilitation in your local gym can seriously improve your quality of life, not just for your body but for your mind..."

To me, it is the same difference, only I am building my self through the atmosphere in a solitary way, with the company of waggish peers all on their own sacred journey to well-being and ultimately good-health.
