    The Philosophy of: Anna Karenina’s Karenin on Misfortune

    December 2, 2018 - By Dave

    It is a fortune that may befall anybody. And this misfortune has befallen me. The only is how best to endure the situation. Any shitty thing that can happen can happen to you. But if any shitty thing that can happen can happen to you, then it’s likely that a similarly shitty thing has happened to somebody before (and probably…

    The Philosophy of: The Shins’ Simple Song (On adversity)

    November 11, 2018 - By Dave

    It’s not a stubborn strength that gets us through the tough times. Not showing a toughness and invisibility that allows those close to us to help us. It’s vulnerability. I know that things can really get rough when you go it alone Don’t go thinking you gotta be tough, and bleed like a stone The thing that truly connects us…

    ‘Remember all the things you tried to forget’ – Can you ever move on from things in your past if you just try to forget them? (The philosophy of: Tristan Prettyman)

    November 10, 2018 - By Dave

    If you’ve had shitty things happen in your past, can you ever truly move on from them if you don’t first embrace the hurt, acknowledge what happened and truly face up to it? Does trying to forget about how someone fucked us over, how we got screwed or the mistakes we made just make them happen again, or perhaps even…

    Live like a warrior – The philosophy of: Matisyahu

    November 5, 2018 - By Dave

    No matter you might be going through, if its happening to you, it’s probably happened before. And you are capable of handling it. Adaptability is invincibility. What’s the thunder in your chest? The flame dancing within you, like a lion roaring… – The Philosophy of: Matisyahu

    The value of catastrophe in our lives

    November 3, 2018 - By Dave

    If you look back at the calamatous, disastrous implosions that occurred within your life, did they change things for you? Did they make you who you are? Positive events can lead to great bliss, but near-apocalyptic occurences such as a death of someone you love, disease, divorce, break-up, failure not only shapes us to who we are today, but they…

    If you stumble, what if you turned it into a (sexy) dance? – The philosophy of : Flight of the Conchords

    October 18, 2018 - By Dave

    Any calamity that befalls you… what if you somehow not only moved on from it, used it to your advantage or even found something within yourself to have a laugh out of it?

    When it feels like the worst has come to the worst, and you feel like you’re suffering the worst of the worst alone, you never are.

    September 17, 2018 - By Dave

    If someone had a knife to your throat, and you were certain they were going to go slashy-slashy … what’s the one thing you’d wish for? A good job? To be happy? To be rich? Or just to live?… To live a bit longer? Well, luckily that’s (probably) not happening to you… so, when times are tough, you at least have…

    Just when you think things are shitty… The philosophy of: Hassan, the airport prisoner.

    September 6, 2018 - By Dave

    In those times when one thing seems to go wrong after another, and particularly those times when bearaucracy and superficial decisions made about your status or ‘worth’ are decided by others, just check out how Hassan lives… A man who, in the eyes of bureaucracy doesn’t actually exist… (and just when you think you’re not lucky enough to live in…

    How can we best deal with life’s sucky times?

    September 4, 2018 - By Dave

    By embracing it? By saying Yes to it all? All the sucky shit? Can you cope with it in a range of positive ways? Can you easily realise that if this is happening to you, then it’s probably happened to someone, somewhere before? That if everything is temporary, so is this? That may be far easier said than done. And if it means…

    What’s your dream? Imagine never realising it. What’s your goal? Imagine never achieving it. Who do you love? Imagine they left you (or died). What are you grateful for? Imagine you lost it all. – If the worst came to the worst… (& The Philosophy of: The School of Life)

    July 31, 2018 - By Dave

    It may not be useful, or a life worth living, if you go about your usual day imagining the worst is going to happen. That sounds like a bullshit kind of life. But imagining tragedy–the things you most don’t want to– can lead to you being prepared for (and happy with) anything that happens in your life: Don’t know what…
