It sure has been a long time since I wrote anything. The topic is something I had a chance to first analyze a few years ago. I had reached a good balance at some point and was able to keep it that way for a while. Recently my balance was temporarily broken and I refined my thoughts about the topic. Here they are...

A well balanced lifestyle is something, which is very important to every human being. A lot of people live all their lives trying to get to the moment of bliss, where they are happy about every aspect of their life. Some people succeed partially, some fail. While I think that reaching perfect balance is impossible, one should try to come to it as close as possible. Understanding how to do it and the process of reaching it can be very useful in gaining a perspective on your life.

The subject is way too controversial and mind-boggling for many people and it is very easy to provoke a fight and cause misunderstanding. This is my own outlook at what love really is and if you happen to disagree, I would be glad to discuss the differences in our points of view in a calm and polite manner.

I have been thinking about the topic of this article for a long time. There is too much to say but everything is quite obvious. Even though most of the things are pretty obvious, I would like to mention them here along with my personal opinions on the subject.

Bad Students, Good Students and Individualists

nospam@example.com (Igor Grinchenko) — 2007-02-20T20:55:18Z

I have lately been thinking about why people differ in their attitudes towards their lives. I came to a conclusion that there are three major categories of people which have pretty distinct characteristics. I'm calling one category "good students", second - "bad students" and third - "individualists". Continue reading "Bad Students, Good Students and Individualists"
