A shift in my way of thinking.

I don’t even know why I decided to write about this…
I think I just wanted to remember and archive this memory.

Going back to my late grade school days (I was in Canada at the time, so after grade 7) and probably up to early high school… (can’t remember exactly how long this lasted) I remember times when I used to get bad marks in class. Continue reading

Happiness (and your mind)

Why Are We Happy? Or Not?


How the Mind Affects Your Happiness

“…In the state of a quiet mind the virtual reality is silent. The visual images and projections are nil. You see the external world as it is. When you do you find out that it is beautiful.”

I know I get this feeling seldomly, usually after sitting through 2hr movies.
Need to figure out how to achieve this more often.

I find this very interesting…. I’ll have to find more stuff to read on this topic, especially on how the mind works.

Feeling weird

Feeling odd today.
It’s a good feeling. Kinda high on life? Super aware, lots of energy…

What had I done to get this?

Last night:
Went in the attic to look at the bathroom exhaust fan.
Did a bit of work in the basement.
Had dinner when I came home from work at 5pm. Had a Pizza Pizza slice (Classic : Pepperoni, mushroom, green peppers) and some chips and dip. Had a pepsi with that.
Later that evening, I did some work on the website after coming in from the setting evening sun, where I was running the power cable for the trunk electronics. While working on the website, had a denerous amount of Sweet Chilli Doritos, along with 2 glasses of 1/2OJ, 1/2 water mix.
Took an echenicia just before going to bed.
Went to bed around midnight.

Next morning
Woke up at 6am.
Got to work at 6:40am
Had 2 granola bars, glass of water, and 2 apples (golden delicious) before lunch.
I think I started feeling a little like this before lunch… I think. Do remember not feeling hungry in the same way I normally do. Just felt like I do now.
Had chinese for lunch (spicy peanut chicken dish)

Still feeling at time of writing.

Allergy?

Last night I got that lump in my throat that I occasionally get when I’m sick. Normally I chalk it up to being sick, but I mentioned it to my wife and she mentioned allergies. I never thought if that… I bet you that’s what it is! Come to think of it, this has happened a few weeks (maybe month and a half) ago, but didn’t think much of it.
The feeling is of a lump in my throat, and I salivate a lot.When I swallow it feels odd, and painfull. probably a restriction of my throat. My breathing is unaffected.
It muct be something I ate, so I’m gonna list everything I ate:
