Comment on Who says the Earth revolves around the Sun? by Eugenie

In the past two weeks, I watched my four-month-old son learn to blow raspberries. Inspired by reading that this would be good for his language development (seriously!), and knowing that his mother can’t blow raspberries, I made the sacrifice and regularly blew raspberries at him. He was surprised at the start, then he started laughing. Then he started trying it out for himself. It took a while, and he ‘fell over’ a bunch of times. Even now, his raspberries are particularly sloppy. But he watched me and he did it – today, he can reliably exit a room and blow me a raspberry!

Comment on The trouble with whining by Daniel Smith

Fighting against your impulses directly seldom makes those impulses go away… but rather buries them.
Of course when we are able to connect to the message of those impulses, the intention behind them, and find another way to satisfy that intention, miracles happen.

Sometimes, you warn yourself stop whining, it triggers more rebellious thoughts…if you ultimately overcome the negative thoughts in no time, your ability of focusing might be extended and yourself might become literally stronger. I think most of us are look forward to enhancing such ability.

And it is good to realize that “We either make ourselves miserable or we make ourselves strong. The amount of work is the same.” (Carlos Castaneda)

Great idea, Krister – upon arriving in Brisbane in November, I headed back to the gym to train with my original instructor again… it was hard to start with, but felt great. I’ve been thinking of heading down to Thailand myself so let me know how you find it. Where are you staying?
Take care of yourself… remember to take it easy, especially starting out!

Daniel…..very funny article. As an “old, fat and lazy” karete black belt i know exactly what you are talking about. For several years now, old injuries, laziness, weight and work has prevented much practicing. This year we “took the bull by the horn”1 We just scheduled a 5 day Muay Thai Training camp in Thailand for the whole family during the Chinese new year celebration………you may never see me again. farewell…or see you later!
