Island Lounge

Someone asked me a simple question recently - knowing the person I am, I can be blunt when I don’t want to entertain the person. Its considered to be uber-rude to not answer questions people ask, especially so when you’re in Asia and the questioner in question is 200 years older than you, but I’m beginning to be less ‘Asian’ these days .. despite having lived in Malaysia for almost 18 years.

In Asia, you’re supposed to be soft, docile and clueless - the perfect woman in a male dominated society. I believe my educational and upbringing background have directed me in many ways to think otherwise instead of being the {perfect} woman who is clueless, and submissive. Asian women can be submissive but that’s when pleasure is part parcel of living. Minus the idea of pleasure, any Asian woman would just turn into totem poles waiting for the rain to drench the arid earth.

I seriously am considering getting my own island in my next life, or when I strike that trillion Euro mark - it can be terribly daunting living amidst imbeciles proclaiming being ‘human’ when they’re clueless to what they are in reality.

Bien souvent on fait une telle séparation entre l’esprit et la matière c’est comme un abîme qu’on creuse entre eux, et il devient difficile de trouver le lien entre les deux. II n’y a qu’une seule chose: qu’on l’appelle esprit ou matière. Je préfère l’appeler esprit. Je l’appelle esprit parce que dans chaque chose il y a la vie, soit apparente, soit à l’état latent. Celui qui les voit comme deux choses différentes les voit comme les deux bouts d’une ligne.

No seriously, a human being would know exactly what they are and how they’d generate the cells within their system and how to heal without having to rely on drugs to solve their incapacities all the time right ?
