Itโ€™s all just โ€ฆ a perception


Me and Arij โ€ฆ try to define life.

We do it โ€ฆ almost โ€ฆ as a hobby.

We became without even realizing โ€ฆ what some people would define as โ€ฆ philosophers.

But we feel more โ€ฆ just โ€ฆ ordinary persons โ€ฆ that simple canโ€™t stop thinking of the meaning of life.

Our own lives โ€ฆ but also of life in general.

And all we write โ€ฆ itโ€™s kind of a philosophical dance.

A mix of perceptions โ€ฆ. very well synchronized.

The perceptions of an โ€ฆ ordinary man โ€ฆ and the one of an amazing โ€ฆ young โ€ฆ feminine spirit.

And the question that might come into your mind โ€ฆ could probably be โ€ฆ what itโ€™s the purpose of this book?!

Why did you bothered to write it?!

Well โ€ฆ first of all โ€ฆ cause we love talking about philosophy โ€ฆ but also give the others the impulse of realizing anyone has the right and the power to talk about the existence of the human being.

Starting the philosophical journey โ€ฆ talking about contradictory issues โ€ฆ. might be โ€ฆ weird โ€ฆ difficult โ€ฆ but

also โ€ฆ annoying.

But time will pass โ€ฆ and continuing walking into this path โ€ฆ we get used โ€ฆ

We start enjoying it โ€ฆ

And then โ€ฆ. we believe โ€ฆ we found the absolute truth.

I smile โ€ฆ cause i did that one million times.

On and on โ€ฆ and on.

Later โ€ฆ changing my perceptions โ€ฆ into a totally contradictory direction โ€ฆ i realized the illusion of all those thoughts and believes.

Today โ€ฆ all i am doing with Arij โ€ฆ itโ€™s almost for fun.

Itโ€™s like we would tell you that we decided to go fishing and enjoy the day โ€ฆ but โ€ฆ. our hobby itโ€™s not about fishing, but about โ€ฆ philosophy.

Itโ€™s about a path โ€ฆ that we believe that will reveal us the meaning โ€ฆ of life.

All we write about โ€ฆ are simple โ€ฆ perceptions.

โ€ฆ our own perceptionsโ€ฆ from a certain period of our lives.

Nothing more โ€ฆ

โ€ฆ nothing less.

But โ€ฆ we continue doing it.

Nobody could judge us โ€ฆ cause itโ€™s all about a hobby of ours.

And you all โ€ฆ have this fundamental right of analyzing and defining the world too.

No one is allowed to โ€ฆ judge you.

Express your self โ€ฆ

Dare to do it โ€ฆ in silence or โ€ฆ very load.

Even Kantโ€™s ideas โ€ฆ or Rumiโ€™s ideas โ€ฆ and all the other great thinkers โ€ฆ were just โ€ฆ perceptions.

So โ€ฆ.

Join us โ€ฆ on this philosophical path โ€ฆ and โ€ฆ.

Who knows?!

Maybe the real secrets will be revealed to you โ€ฆ quite soon.

Much sooner as you might expect โ€ฆ.

Iโ€™ve started to write my first book at 16 โ€ฆ but then โ€ฆ realizing i could not publish it โ€ฆ iโ€™ve abandoned the idea of being a โ€ฆ writer.

20 years later โ€ฆ iโ€™ve started to write again โ€ฆ believing i will finally succeed โ€ฆ but iโ€™ve failed one more time โ€ฆ not getting the success i was chasing for.

Another 5 years later โ€ฆ iโ€™ve started one more time to write โ€ฆ but this time โ€ฆ more as a therapy.

Itโ€™s what iโ€™ve defined as โ€ฆ self therapy.

I was analyzing and defining lots of weird ideas โ€ฆ that were a lot related to me โ€ฆ and my own soul.

I totally forgot that i was chasing for success.

I was simple writing my thoughts โ€ฆ in essays โ€ฆ becoming this way โ€ฆ maybe not a writer โ€ฆ. but what many define as โ€ฆ an essayist.

This is not a poet โ€ฆ and not a writer.

Or maybe is kind of a poet that is incapable of writing poetry โ€ฆ but is still expressing his thoughts โ€ฆ into a similar way โ€ฆ as a poet.

And is not a writer โ€ฆ cause have not the ability to write for too long time โ€ฆ about the same subject.

But maybe i am not an essayistโ€ฆ either.

I am just an ordinary person โ€ฆ that could be better defined โ€ฆ as a thinker.

Analyzing โ€ฆ and defining my life โ€ฆ practicing this process called โ€ฆ self therapy โ€ฆ i started to understand life โ€ฆ and the way to better paths which i should follow.

And iโ€™ve wrote โ€ฆ and wrote โ€ฆ and wrote โ€ฆ realizing one day that iโ€™ve published tens of books โ€ฆ. not really understanding how the hell Iโ€™ve succeeded doing that.

Today i dare to recommend writing โ€ฆ as a therapy.

I could even say โ€ฆ itโ€™s a simple way of understanding who we are โ€ฆ but also a process that could help us โ€ฆ heal our souls.

I personally continue to โ€ฆ write.

Itโ€™s in fact โ€ฆ a non ending story that โ€ฆ at least for myself โ€ฆ will probably continue for the rest of my life.

But over all โ€ฆ i am glad โ€ฆ i am doing it.

I continue my philosophical journey โ€ฆ not being able to define myself for clear as a writer or an essayistโ€ฆ but โ€ฆ

Well โ€ฆ. most probablyโ€ฆ i am on a good path.

And โ€ฆ i would dare to recommend to everyone โ€ฆ all what i am doing today.
