If you wished for 1 thing in your life to make it better



I'll tell myself, and anyone who'll listen, that it is perspective that matters most in life. That to be happy, it's enough to be satisfied with simple things in life.
Accept what happens with ease - always realising that there are creatures throughout the world and its' history that do, and have suffered so much that it makes any foibles I might have, so incredibly trivial.

As much as I realise that to be completely and utterly true, I wish I could incorporate it into my own every-minute perspective, and enjoy everything about my life without bemoaning anything or looking darkly upon anything. I believe with that outlook, I, and many many other people in this one-time-around life, would be a lot happier, at peace inside, and laugh out loud a lot more often. No accoutrements or belongings would matter, nobody else's madness or pinballing against my microswitches would effect me one whit.

I want to be, psychologically, like this :yahoo: all the time.

richie blackmore....awesome

I never really got into Hendrix, although the older you get the more you come to realise just how influential he was.


Carlos Santana is still me all time " Guitar Hero"

Hither (sometimes Thither)
I'd accept almost anything at present, it feels, but best of all would be a sense of physical and mental security that meant i could leave my house, my job, my own incessant company. Walk from the door one day soon, say good morning to chosen passers-by who'd nod and not feel about-to-be-attacked in reply, go on a course or 4 to learn another language and how to structure writings and tales. On such a course i'd meet a woman i go for drinks with at times, our relationship becoming that of habit, challenge, compatability and a sport we share interest in in our imaginings like Table Dennis, Rolf and Dougby. She'll feel funny about a bodypart, maybe just how obvious one breast is larger then the other, or her nose she finds too aquiline and wishes to distract attention from with over-rouged cheeks and possibly-bruised eyes. I just tell her that my forearms are the least of my worries, and quite admire the roadkill scars on my left-hand's back. Slowly we're entwined, unbullied by each other's relish or intent. Admittedly, one of us, or the love that's bound to soon sprout, will die at another time to the other, but that's ok, we might get a thing or two done in the meantime. I'll learn something about the wild and make stupid jokes about cottaging and dogging and owling like a wolf and fishing for compliments that she'll affectionately giggle at for the first couple of months of our legal union, until one day just leaves me a post-it note with a "Please stop LARKing about." written on there. I'll laugh, but take it seriously anyway and stop (hedge)hogging more attention. Yes, we'd meet each other's families on occasion, answering questions about why we haven't reproduced as yet and me being ignored over the comments i make of the novel i'd penned 5 chapters of, her auntie Gladys holding a yawn down for almost 22 seconds before feigning the desperate need for a toilet visit or that's choking on a loose nut. I'd rather she'd just had a heart attack or said I DON'T FIND YOU INTERESTING instead, walked away and spoken to one of the eager children bound in tucked-in shirts and leathery ties second-cousin Barry has drunkenly dressed them in to show his pride and their shame in equal measure.

When this thread started I was going to write £100k would be just fine at the moment, but reading what a few others have gone through, I'm pretty lucky with my lot...

I'd like to be able to speak EVERY language. To be able to travel and converse with people in their native tongue - or welcome visitors to this country and talk to them in their own language would be the COOLEST thing ever. Can't help feeling that the world would be a better place if we could all do this.
