www.Go To The Mountain - Musings of a Potential Guru

Continued.....from Part One... We cycled and stop at some places to soak in the serenity and sense of the place. As always, I like to see things from different angles. So I went under a bridge and this was how it looked. I learned that whatever is past is gone, they are water under the bridge. Who knows I might catch a fish in the water? A blessing in disguise. Or get a view between tall grass on what's on the other side. They say the grass is greener on the other side. What lurks beneath when you see such waters?  She flows out here in its own splendour. When you drink water, always remember the source. What are these? Chili? Never seen this plant before. Maybe a cure for cancer? Don't believe me? One day the plant and insect world may come to our rescue. Watch "The Medicine Man": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gOQOpuD2b3M This is why we have to protect and preserve nature, the ecosystem and our environment. There is design and purpose f...

I wanted something to call my own. I want her to be with me wherever I go. Sit down to watch a sunset or witness a sunrise without saying a word. I do not know how my friends will think of  her. Is she high class or too simple and will they despise her? What will the wife think if I brought her home? Pandemonium? So I release two levers, fold her up and put it into the car boot. The new lady of my life. I went to some more upmarket shops that peddled modern bikes and test rode some of them. They were really good bikes such as the Tern C7, D8, etc., Dahon, Flamingo and US Military covert types but they will cost you an arm and a leg. Most of these bikes are made in China. What isn't? From an entry level of almost $600 to more than $2,000 or more is now the norm. Some bikes can cost your car. If you have an expensive one do watch out. Do not just leave it outside to go into 7-Eleven because when you got out it could be gone in a jiffy. We could not even affor...

How much exercise can one do as oppose to how much we eat? Never enough to be able to catch up with eating. Some of us may not like to waste food so you polish up whatever's left over. Bad mistake. Many tend to overeat because they were hungry. Others because they are just greedy. The right way is to finish with eating and wait ten minutes so that data to your old CPU is duly processed before knowing if you have had enough. Food remains one of the world's most poorly distributed essentials for basic human survival. Yet for many in this world we just partake, burp or fart and go on with our routine life. But it is better to burp and taste it then to fart and waste it. I do not eat a lot and tend to apply the three quarter tank rule so 80% of what we think we need is enough. I do not feel guilty after eating but just so very lazy. All pythons that just swallowed a goat would feel the same way. On Sunday night on the way home, I saw a couple of police cars near my home, I...
