Great podcast, you are so right about it. I wait to many times for the right moment, or dont have time or money to do that thing. I come up wich excuses, its one way to delay it or dont take action. Better to take action and have a different result than dont take action and be angry about it. What do you have to lose?

@ Marina

That’s the same quote (but not said exactly) my friend said to me when I was in the hospital last year because of my first seizure. It has always been a great quote that I always cherish. Thanks for reminding me

Sorry for your loss David, and the other people who spoke of loss. It sounds like you are transforming it into something meaningful.

David – please don’t ever change. Sounds like someone doesn’t understand role-playing and gives more power to vocabulary usage than to the message itself by picking it apart. Frankly, that’s petty and small-minded…indicative of living a narrow and insular world. We can’t all be saccharin in our approach to things and perhaps this site is just not for those folks who require a softer delivery approach or maybe a motherly-type woman to coach them. I prefer the blunt approach from an honest viewpoint which I find here.

Really….

My language is vulgar.

How old are you?

And my tone negative……very strange you feel this way.

You are the only one who has said this so i am really curious what you found negative and vulgar?

I tried to listen to this. David is talking about being positive, but his tone is negative and his language is vulgar. I can’t finish it.

DTO:

whoa…
Well thats because Asians are taught to be more polite and have more restrictions thus not being easy and/or too open.

Dreaming on about world peace is nice but too unrealistic and not practical…We can all sing Kumbaya but, in real life, the strong will screw the weak, it happens every day unfortunately…

But let me turn to you Mike. I also was a foreign exchange student (I am not saying the year!) and the experience changed my life! I was an unhappy kid with issues growing up in my home country…I had to get away and coming in a foreign land I started anew (plus getting laid also helped!). Lesson: American girls fuck much easier than Japanese girls:-)

In addition, I find, IN GENERAL, Japanese women to be much colder than other Asians…winning one over is like trying to make bin laden a Christian….not worth it…again, IMHO:-)

So, Mike, I guess, you should have stayed there:-)

I think the language thing as creating world peace is cool.

But all it really takes for world peace is UNDERSTANDING eachother. And not dehumanizing a person. The 4-D’s that leads to destruction and mass murder are: dissociating, devalue,dehumanize, destroy. I forgot the order and the correct word, but its really that simple.
