Perfect Objectivity

HANZO: I'm done doing what I swore an oath to God 28 years ago to never do again. I've created, "something that kills people." And in that purpose I was a success. I've done this, because philosophically I'm sympathetic to your aim.
I can tell you with no ego, this is my finest sword. If on your journey, you should encounter God, God will be cut.

Dialog from: Kill Bill Vol. 1 (Movie)

I really love the last line of the dialog. It shows the sense of purpose and willpower that allows nothing to stand in your way.

Perfect objectivity which allows you to have a sense of purpose as sharp as a sword and the clear head to allow nothing to stand in your way is very difficult to achieve. We do get distracted in life, maybe for a good reason, thus becoming subjective.

Thinking about it, seems perfect objectivity would be so peaceful whereby you don't think deep but don't get emotionally involved. The heart is just a spectator!

I wonder how one can develop that mental and emotional sword which will cut through everything as we progress on this journey of life!

A quote

The only person you have to be honest to is yourself!

The Fall of Mr. Machwe

Under an atomic sky, I write this. I bridge a gap between two worlds. As I fall I know I have failed. I have become what I did not want to become.

the unfolding of the year, the lost season is here.....
when the words have all been spent....

like a fathers sweet embrace....
for the moment face to face with the sweetest embrace.....

I am faced with a battle without honour.... what to do? Fight or give up?

:)

A lovely quote!

Everyone is going to become a drugie except the alcoholics! :D

Why do we drink?

"I felt stupid!"
That is what a friend of mine said after a night of solid drinking.
Why do we drink?

I drink because it unlocks something in my brain.

Have you seen the Basketball Diaries (movie)? Do you know what Chasing the Dragon means (its a movie!)?

Which one did I enjoy the most? Ecstasy! Water! Take it!

:)

Funny comments from people.

Now I have to understand... why do we drink!
I drink to unlock the vaults in my brain.

What kind of housemates do I have?

Never do drug! Thats what my older housemates say!

Why not?
It is difficult to get out of!

Crazy experiences like skies turn pink when you take mushrooms! :D

Funny!
