    Wants.Blog is now a (founding) member of the PHLAT.net online catalog network

    As some of you might have noticed, I have been “taking a break” for a few days. I guess I needed some “time off”.

    I didn’t simply just sit on the porch, put my feet up, sip on a long drink, whatever.

    Instead, I decided to switch it up a bit and got a little more involved with the back end tech of the internet. Unlike in real life, dealing with bits and pieces of computer technology can seem quite challenging without any prospect of rewards in sight … until it works!

    So I indeed did manage to work it out and after I jiggled the wires and flipped the switches and wiggled the knobs and shook the handles and whatnot, Wants.Blog has now become a founding member of PHLAT.net!

    PHLAT.net is (IMHO) a new and improved approach to the WWW … and one Wants.Blog readers should (I feel) definitely check out.

    I do not have great expectations, though. I expect only a very adventurous few people will even venture out onto the site — which is situated in a rather remote, uncharted territory. All kidding aside, PHLAT.net — as well as most PHLAT.net network sites — do not use data encryption … and therefore also do not use data encryption certificates … which is completely no problem because these sites do not collect any sensitive data. Companies like Google (and most other “Silicon Valley” upstarts), which collect TONS of data about their users DO NOT LIKE anything without data collection and so such companies are VERY BIG about campaigning against anything which doesn’t collect data about users. This is why many Internet browsers present warning messages whenever a site does not use data encryption certificates — because there is a huge mob of 800-pound gorillas breathing down their necks to do so. I will write another article about this problem (on another site, and I will be sure to post a pingback link here) … in a few days or maybe a couple weeks. I wrote this here and now mainly as a WARNING about the possible WARNING messages.

    If you want to know more about PHLAT.net, you can also visit the PHLAT.news.blog (proudly hosted @ WordPress 😉 ) … and read all about how Wants.Blog is now supporting this project (in “Founding members of PHLAT.net (network) — Unite!“) … you could even interact, ask questions, get answers and all sorts of fun stuff like that! (but please don’t let me distract you in case you are also busy vacationing 😀 )

    I can now say (which I honestly didn’t think I would) that I’ll miss this experience.

  • My expectations are high of what I want / need to achieve to feel good about myself

    I generally have a day list a week list a weekend list and a month list! So Sundays list went a bit like, spend quality time doing some work research and have a nice bath to nurture myself rather than another punishing long run.

    I have failed yet I am so young to many people. Someone said remove the age limit in your dreams and goals and get them done no matter how long it takes. This was a good thing to say but that doesn’t mean that the age won’t cross my mind and I will feel like a failure. The pressure sometimes comes from seeing younger people than me do so much and succeed yet I’m still here.

    After my interview, I was told to expect to hear back in about a week. Six days passed and I was getting ready to take graduation pictures when I texted my roommate that I was upset and felt like I wasted my practicum time because I felt like there was no way I would get a job in L&D. Twenty minutes after I sent that text, I got a call where I was informed that A JOB OFFER WAS BEING EXTENDED TO ME! I was so overwhelmed with joy! I accepted that job and am currently waiting on my temporary license to begin working at my dream job!

    I have suffered with anxiety my whole life, for most of this time I wasn’t aware what was happening was actually anxiety. I just thought it was me, I’ve always been a worrier, there are definitely periods in my life where it has been a lot worse than other times and I am starting to be able to decipher which is which. I am learning that the more I allow myself to just be, to chase my own dreams and to allow the universe to guide me, the less anxiety I carry. Once I start putting myself under the pressure of what society expects of me, I move out of alignment. And each time I think of something I’d like to do, I tell myself there’s no way I could do it (including starting this blog). While I will be spending a lot of time telling you all to trust your gut, that process is always on going and each scary step that succeeds takes me one step further from that self limitation. Nothing happens overnight, but with a little bit of faith in the jump, a lot of wonderful things can happen.

  • I want is from “myself” and I expect is from “others”

    Keywords: expectations , love , relationships

    Just take a different approach here to maintain the relationship – for example: We love each other so deeply, there is no doubt – no trust issues and I still wait for his message or call, I still want him to see my all status and respond BUT now by replacing my thought process I just want THIS to happen and I stopped expecting this. Expectation means – other person has to do this else it will hurt us. And Want is mine own – other person is not responsible for this. The time we realize that its not the other person who is hurting us, its us/our feelings which is the cause of all this. Our mind became more relaxed and then we start appreciating whatever little or big things/gestures other person is doing/showing for us. We start value them more than before. Now, its only love, love and only love…
