  • on Love - On Rainbow Stylin' - Why you listen to it

    Um, did the lead singer of The Similou even know he was being filmed here? This isn’t ‘Dance like no one’s watching’, this is ‘Dance like you don’t even know you’re actually filming a music video right now.’ (& Another reason why this is the greatest Love/Breakup song in the history of all the musics ever)

    August 10, 2018 - By Dave

    This is how to NAIL life… Just be in your own zone, happy to do whatever you do, regardless of what people think of it (as long as you know, you’re not hurting them in some way). That is the lead singer of The Similou doing exactly that. Just doing what he does. And freaking NAILING IT (and all in…

  • on Love - On the Absurdity of... - Why you listen to it

    This is the greatest Love/Break Up song in all the history of all the musics ever – The philosophy of: All This Love (and Rainbow Stylin’)

    August 9, 2018 - By Dave

    There’s nothing more absurd, while being amazing at the same time, as love. But the closest thing is art. And there aren’t any other things we dive into, embark upon blindly or get completely swept away by. But nothing connects us to each other than those two things. And love (and break up) songs do both at the same time. Watch this: How absurd…

  • on Love - On the Absurdity of... - On the philosophy of... - Why you listen to it

    These are the two greatest love songs in the history of all the musics ever… The (ridiculous, desperate, but beautiful) absurdity of: Love Songs [pt.1] – ‘Baby I Love Your Way’ & ‘Happy Birthday Helen’

    August 8, 2018 - By Dave

    How can there be 68,000,000,000,021 love songs (and even ones where the guy says he’ll ‘jump in front of a train for ya‘) in a world where people still find making love work at best a mystery, and at worst, a labour? Because there’s only 2 ways we can truly come close to knowing what it’s like to be someone…

    Do you love yourself? And is it only possible to truly love someone else after you first truly love yourself? (The philosophy of: The School of Life)

    July 19, 2018 - By Dave

    I’m in California or Mexico right now (probably), so for a few weeks, this is a collection of all my favourite questions I’ve thought of in the last year and bit since I started this blog. You have the answers to everything you want to know (about the world or about yourself) inside of you, all it takes is to ask yourself the right question. And…

    Who are your friends? And do you truly love them (in terms of Montaigne’s kind of love)? In the sense that if they decided to not talk to you ever again, would you still want the best for them?

    The Philosophy of: Tom Robbins – On Adaptability to whatever’s thrown at you and challenge you’re faced with (& On Love)

    June 16, 2018 - By Dave

    I guess I’ve always been interested in adaptability. In taking whatever life hands you and running with it. – Tom Robbins You can try and be invincible. In any situation you can try and believe that nothing can beat you. And this may be a useful mental strategy, but when unexpected shitty things occur, it may be more useful, realistic…

    Are you a good listener? The philosophy of: ‘Go On…’, the value of Verbal diarrhoea, and listening without judgement, & The philosophy of: Tao Te Ching [pt.3]

    June 14, 2018 - By Dave

    How good a listener are you? Simply be aware of what actually is without giving it names and without judging it, for you are now feeling out reality itself instead of ideas about it. – Tao Te Ching    One of the absurd things in life is that you can never know me. And I can never know you. You, as…

    A Deep Dive into: Love [pt.7] – The Philosophy of: Being in a relationship

    June 7, 2018 - By Dave

    This is a deep dive into the one word that may be more confused or have a greater subjective meaning than any other in the English language: Love. So what does it really mean? —– Every relationship (and friendship) must end. Which is why is it absurd that we must go into every relationship hoping it will last forever. But this is…
