The Prophet 2
And a youth said, Speak to us of Friendship.
And he answered, saying:
Your friends is your needs answered.
He is your field which you sow with love and reap with thankgiving.
And he is your board and your fire side.
For you come to him with your hunger, and you seek him for peace.
When your friend speaks his mind you fear not the "nay" in your own mind, nor do you withhold the "ay".
And when he is silent your heart ceases not to listen to his heart;
For without words, in friendship, all thoughts, all desires, all expectations are born and shared, with joy that is unacclaimed.
When you part from your friend, you grieve not;
For that which you love most in him may be clearer in his absence, as the mountain to the climber is clearer from the plain.
And let there be no purpose in friendship save the deepening of the spirit.
For love that seeks aught but the disclosure of its own mystery is not love but the net cast forth:
And let your best be for your friend.
If he must know the ebb of your tide, let him know its flood also.
For what is your friend that you should seek him with hours to kill?
Seek him always with hours to live.
For it is his to fill your need, but not your emptiness.
And in the sweetness of friendship let there be laughter, and sharing of pleasures.
For in the dew of little things the heart finds its morning and is refreshed.

Fact !
If you leave your rubbish for 2 weeks meat starts growing WORMS and it smells like chemical weapons should smell!
School of Life
Few weeks before I finish my degree. Took me ages to get it. Although it may not be my dream degree, and I'm not going into the details of that, it has been long waited and I'm sure glad that I'm almost there.
It's interesting how a piece of paper can transfer someone from almost nobody to something. That piece of paper is nothing in its self but it implies that a person has had a certain experience in a certain field and this is were its value come from.
What's more interesting is where I believe I gained more knowledge and experience during the last few years. It certainly was not sitting in lecture theaters or digging into book in depressing medical library, but rather in the school of life. The type of people one associates with and the variety of situations one have to deal with. Not having daddy around has had a big role.
I wonder if one can get a piece of paper that says that their qualified in life one day.
