Arrow Whispers

I don’t care where you stand socially, politically, nationally. It doesn’t matter to me if you are an atheist, a Christian, a Muslim, or a Satanist. You can dress any way you feel fit, eat meat or veggies, color your hair or be all natural, be 5 years old or 50, come from any cultural background, live...

We are conditioned to believe that “things just happen”. When things “just happen”, people say, “Well, that’s life,” implying that there are natural patterns that have always existed and keep unfolding, and so the only thing we can do is accept whatever happens naturally... and carry on. Have you ever...

If you are even slightly into researching the so-called “uncommon knowledge” in unconventional ways and from unofficial sources, you may have stumbled upon this more than once: crowds of Internet users on all kinds of social media using and abusing tags such as ”awakening, wakeup, sheeple, pizzagate, illuminati“, and hundreds of others...

"How do I get other people to pay attention to me?" Every person and situation is different. Our needs for acceptance and recognition vary to a great degree. Some people could care less while others need lots of "love". It's perfectly normal and we are unique no matter how universal some basic human behaviors are. I think that independence form opinions and approvals of others is crucial to self-development, but I am not here to judge those who need more recognition than others. However, I'd like to discuss an aspect of life more bothersome to those who do crave to be recognized and accepted (for whatever reason)...

Here is one painful truth: some of the best teachers in our lives are worse, than psychopaths. I love people who teach and inspire through humility, kindness, and love, but sometimes our paths take us the other way, and along the way come those whose lessons are a borderline with complete annihilation. For those of you who are looking for a Teacher - think twice! Difficult and scary is the moment when you realize that your Teacher, the one who guides, suddenly becomes your most dangerous opponent...

You see, I thought I knew a lot. But it turned out that I was merely a passive sponge saturated with Information. A very common misconception exists in our world; people often confuse information and knowledge, forgetting that these things, while being closely related, are not interchangeable. Information is theoretical, it's like having access to lots of data on various subjects and aspects of life. Knowledge is something more practical, it's acquired through experiencing things and actively living through them. But our brain — a brilliant machine — doesn't always differentiate. Take fiction for example...

We are all weak, and sometimes we want people to pay their dues. We think it's only right, we want to have justice. We want them to take responsibility because they promised and didn't deliver, because we relied on them and they didn't make it, because we trusted their honorable intentions and they turned into nothing. If the actions of those we count on contradict their words and promises time after time after time, it seems only natural that we reach that critical point where we want them to answer. In one way or another we expect them to pay for unfulfilled promises, deception, pain, suffering,...

The easiest way to control a person is by the presence or the absence of something he can’t live without... or simply believes that he can’t since most of our “needs” aren’t consciously created by us - they are learned from others and conditioned by the socio-cultural environment we live in. Examine it closely and you’ll see that we could live just fine without at least half of the trash that fills up our lives. The manipulative trick is designed to make us do just the opposite; a variety of methods is used to impose perceived needs and wants and attribute them great importance. Once this is...
