Work it Out

A pure upbeat and optimistic rhythm. Given all the crap I’m handling, this is a perfect theme tune for the long weekend.

I’m faced with various degrees of bad and worst decisions as opposed to my normal tactical good or better choices.  I’ve allowed external influences to box me into corners with sheer cliff edges and can only blame myself.

In the meantime, I’m limping like a lame duck with crippling pain in my left lower calf muscles, a physical memory of reaching the Alpl 14, 8671 Alpl, Austria summit last week.

Try not to upset the pile

On the upside, one of my mentees just secured a full-time job.  Feels good to be part of someone’s happiness.

Come, my selector.

Accidental Bucket list

The words Summit and Peak will never be the same again for me.

Yesterday, I inadvertently ended up trekking 612 metres up to Alpl 14, Krieglach, Austria.  I’m a born Londoner so pretty much used to staying at no higher than 35 metres about sea level.

It was a combination of crowd trekking and sheer mental concentration to push my body to do what it didn’t want to do.  Reaching the Summit was absolutely wonderful, my heart filled up with massive waves of happiness and my aching muscles were quickly forgotten.

The mountains in Horizon Zero Dawn are brilliant but the real-life view and air from the top of an actual mountain is simply to die for.

40 minutes of hiking up blindly ended up being a really important life lesson to self.  I now know why people train for months and end up being addicted to trekking and conquering mountains.   A work colleague reached the Summit of Mount Kilimanjaro which is over 5000 metres up, now the magnitude of their achievement has suddenly dawned on me.

600 metres about Sea level

Today, I’m reflecting on my shock achievement and trying to soothe my muscles.

I WILL do it again.

Romance fraud

Probably, one of the most horrible things to do to someone.

We live and die with our mobiles in our hands, so can be both victim and perpetrator to a crime that is seldom reported and hardly ever reaches Court.

Systems for getting her to Fall for you

For criminals, this is the perfect recipe for a production line of scams with limitless victims.

Underneath, there is the genuine need to cure ironic loneliness in an always connection but emotion disconnected world.

 

Victims are systematically ignored by the authorities or accused of being naive or stupid while the perpetrator is shielded by the fact that there probably isn’t much the victim can do about it.

Not so romantic now.

Sexual exploitation is part of the scammer toolkit 
- Stealth recording the victim without consent 
- Releasing files without consent 
- Threatening to release files

The same skills needed to exploit are the ones that will help you find Real Love online….

Files restored

Making up after a break-up must produce a massive dose of Dopamine to the brain.

The answer was “Yes” and I’m being restored.  Trouble is my dysfunction is taking its time to re-boot.

So many lessons learned over the past 48 hours.

Love dependency

Any addiction is usually not a good thing.  I’ve always known that I’m actually addicted to being in Love.

The problem, like all addiction, is that going cold turkey is painfully and long lasting.  I woke up this morning still in Love but unable to contact the object of my passion.

I need a fix badly.

Wondering around the snow covered mountains in Horizon Zero Dawn brought some comfort and I discovered a few interesting side missions while harvesting 2 nice collectibles.  The view up here is tranquil and exhilarating coming down on the zip wire.

I wanted to call her this morning to beg for one more chance but pride stopped me.  I don’t believe I deserve another chance.  Maybe it’s just better to let her go rather than risk causing more damage and destroying the good memories.

All data including pictures are now safely archived.

I can’t get the Manhattans 1976 track out of my head

Many months have passed us by
I'm gonna miss you I can't lie
I've got ties and so do you
I just think this is the thing to do
It's gonna hurt me I can't lie
Maybe you'll meet another guy
Understand me won't you try, try, try
Let's just kiss and say goodbye

I am faking it?

Celebrities get caught on this from time to time and it’s seriously hilarious and sometimes criminal.

You’re in a conference and don’t realize the microphone is broadcasting so you talk freely.  In my case, my phone was on in my pocket so I naturally talked freely about my nearest and dearest.

Tragically, it’s was the root cause of the end of a relationship.  It took 15 mins of loose talk to destroy something that took months to build up.  Losing everything I have for talking carelessly is a  life changing moment, especially considering I usually move cautiously.  Of course, I could blame the technology but was my heart in the right place?

I am sincere or just another two faced liar?  A fraud, a fake….

Your own voice recorded back to you cannot be disputed or defended.  Like your phone records, logs or the millions of data you generated every day.

Right now I feel like a low life so time to go back into my bunker.

P.S. she DELETED me
