Are Our Lives Just WoW Characters?


Or is it a series of  spinn-off movies from one-another?

I bet you wonder what the “F in H with sprinkles out the what not now” I am jabing about now, so let me go a little bit back in the thought process.

I have with many friends and other people discussed what out lives can be structured like. We have philosofyed much about this through time. One point of view is that we are all a role-play character like in WoW. In a deeper explanation; we are here to fulfill quests. The computer character is us, the people, and the player is our soul. When we die, some comes back to play trough the game, others make reincarnations (creates a new character) and others go on in, i guess, another story of quests.

Think about this for a while. Many aspects will fall under this belief of life. It did so for me anyways :)

Another point of view is this (my favorite one so far). We are all a star in our own movie. I know this has been said before by someone I don’t know, but this is a really good analogy for life in my eyes.

Try to view your life from the perspective of the audience. If your life was a movie, would it be a drama film? an action movie? a comedy? In most cases I think a life dipps through most genres by time.

My movie synopsis would be like this: “A boy, unknowingly walking a path that he has laid in a randomized pattern, only to find out later on that his path was drawn before his birth started. Through life he goes up and he goes down, little did he and everybody else know that he suffered from a number of, what the society calls, ‘psychological disorders‘. He tryes to act like the others to fit in but none of the pieces seem to fit one-another. After a while of goofing around the greater meaning, he decides to do something drastic. Luckily he fails and turn the unknowing mind of himself around to open eyes of the two, soon three. The struggle hardens each day as well as it softens in a never ending loop of gaining knowledge of the Universe. Where will this all end down the road, or will it ever?”

Just by reading what i just wrote allmost makes me want to watch that movie, so I close my eyes and rewind.

What insights do I reach by rewinding the tape of my life? One thing that is most likely for me, is that it all seems to actually follow a manuscript where all the characters of my life are insanely good actors. Even though we never really lose anyone, we still cry and often curse the heavens for these situations, just like a good actor when a role in the movie dies. The actor knows that the actuall person is not dead but they can “fake” a great cry when its needed.

Now that it is said, What if you unknowingly played a part in a movie where every line was, sort of, downloaded to your mind in a matter that makes it seem like your own idea? Just like the character in a movie. The character doesn’t know what its about to say, but the actor does.

So, What if we, the people as we know each other, is actually just characters in a very long movie and the actor is our soul?

And in stead of reincarnations to another person, the actor just take on another role when the movie for now is done?

I bet some of you think im out of my mind, but you are right. I am out of my mind but not in that “crazy” sense of the word. That being said, I am just doing what a script I haven’t read tells me to do.

So if it is like this, then we are all movies who spin-off each other? Pretty heavy thought for some, even for me at first. My movie span-off from another movie who span-of another movie at the same time my movie is the center for me as well as your movie is for you and all the other movies are for them, but we spin-off each other in a matter that makes it the most heavy DVD collection ever produced.

In all this phylosofying a question apears in my head. Is God simply the best “Multi-Movie-Director/Producer” the Universe has ever seen?

Thank you for reading. I hope I didn’t freak you out :)

Untill next time:

Keep the Director happy, do what he would like you to and he is good to the hard wood through the fire up till water and around again:) When He gives you a scenario with no heads up, just say “Yes, Sir!” Ain’t nothing else to do or say.

I would like you to think about my concept of “life Synopsis” and share your synopsis with the rest of us. I bet it would be a really interesting movie.

If you feel it is hard to write a synopsis, you can think about it like this. How would you write a short movie summary to be placed on the back of a DVD-cover without giving away the ending.

Here! Take some popcorn and enjoy the film. No, not you, the reader, but…

The 5 Elements of you, me and everybody else


In the post “Addiction Aid” I said something about the 5 Elements; Water, Tree, Fire, Earth and Metall. I really like thinking about the concepts to them. I will not go into the whole Qigong and Taoism of it now, but this will also trigger an interrest i believe.

As well as balancing the body, mind and soul to their default settings of your being, the 5 Elements can also describe how you should behaive and in order to be the person you are destened to be. “How?” I bet your asking me through the screen… By looking at your face.

You’ve probably heard that a persons face can tell all. Well… its true. The face, in my opinion, is the doorway to oneself and ones knowing of potential.

Let me start pinpointing the different elements in order of the circle:

(standard human sizes are of the golden ratio)

Water: One with big ears is borned to have lots of water in its body. Now what does that mean and why is it neet to know? Amung a huge number of thing, water contains your identity. In other words, if you have lots of water element in your body, you know exactely who and what you are.

Tree: How to see if a person has lots of tree in its body? by checking out the size of the eyes. Are the eyes big, then the tree is large and it is strong. What this means is that, that person is great in making choises and sticking to them, while a person who have smaller eyes might dwell longer by each decision.

Fire: Does a person have a larger head than what is standard, then that person has much of the element of fire. This means that the person with big head has a nac for saying or showing what that person knows or think. Those with a smaller head than standard may be found quiet in most situations about their beliefs and thought.

Earth: Here it depends on the size of the mouth. If the mouth is big, the earth is of great amount. This means that the person is good to forget meaningless things and remember what is important. As the one with a smaller mouth remembers anything that is categorized as a bad memory or an accuard, irritating momentum of frustration. They may also remeber positive aspects, but not as good as the negative parts.

Metall: This is where a person with a big nose has lots of metall, which means that the person is less uneasy about the past and the future. He/she lives in the now and takes every second as it comes. The one with a small nose is often very melancholy and vurries about the future and past.

Now you know how to pinpoint a persons born elements and its main behaviors in life. If you take a couple of test subjects in the discreet and match the head and facial forms up towards the 5 elements of the face above, do their behavior match what it is supposed to? In many cases they do not, but in other cases they will appear more visible and you will feel you know that person more than ever.

What is “off” if the person does not behaive as they are born to? well… the thing that should be fixed is the balance. For example; if a person with big ears and eyes act unsecure about choises and them self, they need more water and tree in their body. They can add more of the elements they lack by doing the qigong routines (more about this later) or treating some acupuncture points that represents the right element channel.

What happens to a person that do not live life as they are destened to? There are many ways to see if a person is moving in the wrong direction with the “wrong footware”. As soon as a person steps in the wrong place, they will feel some sort of discomfort in their body. If a person live life not according to the characteristics of the face, their life will plummet in different areas. For example; they can become depressed, overweight, sick, lonley etc. They will become more unhappy than if they lived by the characteristics of their face. I know this from my own experience.

I didn’t follow my face’s characteristics for many years and that braught me drugs, deadly habbits, pointless relationships and a not-well but sweet-living relationship, many depressions, anxiety trips, short friendships and lots of other unfortunate happenings. I tried to be someone I was not by acting bad and showing an untrue side of me to satistfy my view of how society viewed me. In other words; I did not live by lots of water and fire, which is the two strongest elements I am given. I now try to uphold my key-elements and I must say it has changed a lot of things.

Even though a person has for example large amounts of metall or earth, it does not mean that they can never have much of the other elements. This just means that these are the elements that describes the way that person  is ment to behaive or live. It is more of a direction-arrow to how you should be to get to where you must. You will also not get bigger eyes by adding more tree, nore a bigger mouth by adding earth. *FYI* Many asked me about that, but it does not work so.

So if you feel like you have a terrible life and is generally unhappy with certain aspects. Check yourself in the mirror and see what your key-elements in the face are and see if you live by them.

Thank you for reading. hope you found this helpful on the path of knowing you. I did anyways.

5 Elements; Water, Tree, Fire, Earth and Metall

A short summary of the elements and characteristics:

  1. Water: Big ears, much water – strong knowing of identity.
  2. Tree: Big eyes, strong tree – good in making decisions.
  3. Fire: Large head, much fire – likes to show who they are and what they know.
  4. Earth: Big mouth, much earth – skilled at forgetting meaningless happenings but remembers important stuff.
  5. Metall: Large nose, much metall – lives in the now, do not think much about future or past.

There are more to each element than what is written about here. In a later post I will write more about other parts the elements play in us all.

Smile When the Time is Right


For a little while ago I started thinking about the “rollercoaster of moods”, and that not everybody experiences it. I know some people that have few swings and people that never stands still in an emotion, like me. I wondered why it was like this.

Yes, the statements about bipolar disorders and similar mental diseases and sicknesses came to mind, but I felt that was a little vague of an explanation even though its many of the medical terms and such and such. The theories of taoism and chinese cultural understanding fell in a more logical thought pattern for me.

We are all familiar with the consept of kontrasts (white – black, big – smal etc.) and that where there is happiness there will exist sadness, where there is hate there will exist love and so on. So I started playing with the idea of that if I am over-enthusiastic I will experience the opposite some time after, if I am over-happy I will become über depressed, if I am over-caring I will become careless and so on. As Yin/Yang would place this; where the top is high, the bottom is equally low.

So in other words, if I don’t start the top-end I won’t have a reason to experience the bottom-end, but being completly neutral resulted in no happiness and no sadness. I fell on the conclusion of that there is no reason to smile or laugh if it is just to please someones hope of reaction, nore the opposite, laugh to get a reaction. The same goes for the negative sides, why be mad or sad just because someone else is it? So I decided to start being completly honest about my reactions and not follow what I think others would like me to react. I tried to match this up with my friends who did not have so drastic mood-swings and it actually fitted in. I found that they don’t laugh to please anyone else, and so with their cries. If they think something is funny they will laugh and so with their cries if something is sad. This thought brought me often the word  “Focus”.

I think that most moods swings happen when one place its focus wrong. I have some weeks now been doing the “Shong” Qigong routine. This routine gives you a picture of where your focus should lie, by striking over where it sholdn’t be. The Shong routine is the image to the right. Below you will find instuctions and an explanation of the different lines.

Instuctions:

  • Draw the sign in the air with your arms.
  • Follow the numbers as illustrated. Odds (1,3) are the left arm, evens (2,4) are the right arm. Allways start with left arm.
  • Breating: Inhale when you are positioning your arm to draw a line, exhale while drawing the line.
  • Do this in slow motion everyday for as long as you feel it is usefull for you.

Explanation :

  1. this line represents the spritual aspects of life.
  2. this bow represents the emosional and social aspect.
  3. this line represents the material and physical things in life.
  4. this is the striking line that represents where your focus should be.

Now, what is the center focus? as the theory of this Qigong routine goes, the focus should be your reason of being on this planet, your mission. I haven’t heard the whole story behind this, but I think that line 1, 2 and 3 are the aspects of our cultural habbits that distracts us from our mission. Not to say that having nice things and lots of friends and other partners is wrong, but is it clever to focus your center on aspects that most likly will fade after a while?

If you lay all your happiness on your partner in life or a close friend, and let that person controll your smiles and cries through their mood, responses and reactions. What would happen if that person suddenly left your life?

Or an even better example: What if you lay most of your daily activities on the television, lets the TV controll your mood, happiness and cries, spend most of your time in front of the “box of entertainment”. How would you feel or what would you do if the TV suddenly didn’t work?

I guess that both scenarios would result in long time unhappiness for the most of us. I don’t remember where I heard this next line but its a great one: “If you own more than 7 items, your items end up owning you”. Thats a thought-starter for me. I think Yin/Yang would place this situation something like this: if You own everything, then you will own nothing.

So my final conclusion on this topic is; Smile and cry when its natural for one self, find the right focus and walk the line that has been drawn, to every high there’s an equal low so do not push anything over the top or under, then one would have no reason to have unstable moodswings.

Thank you for reading this post!

I really hope you do the “Shong” Qigong routine if you feel your mood is a swinger, or if you’d like to correct your focus in life.

Addiction Aid!


As I said in the last post, “Yes, Sir!” I would reveal my methods of quitting with diverse habbits in a later post. Well, this is that later post:)

What I was addicted, or had a nac for using, was smoking Cigarettes and Marijuana. I had smoked cigarettes since I was 14, I think, and on and off from weed since 15. Well I also drank a lot, but stopped with that once I got more and more taken by highness. I also drank a Lot of coca cola and was eating unhealthy with a capitol U. Thats short told what I wass addicted and had habbits of doing.

I started doing a Qigong routine that was a series of 5 chinese signs; Water, Tree, Fire, Earth and Metal. For those of you who do not know what Qigong is – It is drawing chinese signs in the air with you arms in super slow motion. By doing these 5 signs, you balance Yin and Yang in your entire body and soul with whats important and with what default setting your body must have to complete your task on earth.  I did this for a short week and discovered I had to stop smoking weed if I was to move on in life. I kept on doing Qigong, and I still do. It is anyways a great work out and meditation tool.

I had suddenly started thinking like this: How can one become positive while freely inserting negative factors into ones body? This thought put a lot of aspects in my life in different perspectives.

One day I learned an acupuncture point from my mother. This point helped take care off addictions. I had actually heard about it for a long time ago, considering that my sister attended an acupuncture school for a couple of years and taught it to my mom, who now attend the same school BTW. Well, anyway. I guess I didn’t use the point before because it felt like too simple off a sollution for something so controlling as nicotine. But I came to my senses and started rubbing my nose tip for about 20 minutes a day. It would be foolish off me to not choose the easy way out in this case, I felt.

Sounds kinda wierd when I say it like that. hehe. As if the nose is a lamp that which is rubbed you can quit habbits :) Never the less, It worked after a while. This point is called “Su liao” in chinese, I don’t know the translation. It gives best effect if you stick a needle in the middle of the nosetip, but works also with rubbing. I taught early in the process how to use needles propperly, so I used them.

Don’t think that after just one session you will be cured. The thought behind the treatments are that you should continue treatment for one month pr. year you have been, for example, smoking cigarettes. So if you have been smoking for 5 years, its regular to keep treating it for 5 months. But it is not like this for everyone. I just did this for a few weeks, and that was enough for me. Remember this works on all types of addictions.

Truth be told, I had also began reading up on Jose Silva and the Silva Method. This is a thought method that connects you to the nature of the Universe, much like “the Secret”, but I would say that it is more advanced and covers farr more grounds with the “power of thought” concept. I can’t say that it didn’t influence the rehab process, but I never focused consciously on quitting anything like that while executing the Silva exorcises.

I hope you find the “Su liao” acupuncture point as usefull as I did. Remember to not use needles if you are completly new to this area of medicine. It is safer to rubb the tip of your nose for about 20 minutes a day:)

Thank you for reading, please think about this line.

How can one become positive while freely inserting negative factors into ones body?

If you are interested in any Qigong tips and review, feel free to drop a comment with a request. I will write a post about it one time in the future anyways, but it would be swell to get some questions or requests so I know exactly what to write and answer:) Not that I am any expert in any way, but if I know the answers I will tell you.

Yes, Sir!


In the past months, I have completly turned my life around. I’ve stopped smoking, and “Smoking” and started eating right and exorcising (I will talk about how and what I did later on). This I must say I owe lots to the Universe. I started with acupuncture and doing Qigong, which brought me to the state of mind that made it acceptable for me to change so many negative aspects of my life.

The topic for to day is about 2 simple words that gives so much insight and enlightenment, these words are as following.

Yes, Sir!

My 16 year old niese tought me the meaning and theory behind this, now I must share it with the rest of you.

I am a proud Universalist. This means (to me) that I do my best to honor and respect the universe and all that it contains. I do not believe in one God, I believe in All the Gods, even though I do not practice their belief. I believe in all of man kind, and all that there is to offer. I accept alle the pain in the world and around me and I know that there is a Higher meaning behind everything that happens. Many may find this similar to other religions, no buts, but I just try to keep an open mind with love towards any situations I may come across on my path towards enlightenment.

Our life, everybodies life has been written, but not in stone. We all have a divine calling, you can call it a mission, that we are driven towards. So if we have a mission we can’t controll, isn’t the mission giver our “General” or higher ranked officer (the Universe)?

I view every roadbump in life as a test from the Universe. A test that is given to help me overcome a roadblock in my path. To help me become the being I need to be to comlete my mission. Not knowing what it is, makes me more curious. Being a Humanbeing Therefore I need to follow the path to cure my curiousness. Often I am tested, so are you. Can we controll this? No.

So what can one say when a situation accures that you do not like? I only say “Yes, Sir!” and move on through the test.

Why is it so important to move through the test, and pass it? Well… out of experience, if one do not pass a given test, the person will be tested again and again untill the test has been cleared. The next test will be similar to the one that have been failed, even though it can be completly different, it will teach you a valuable lesson.

Thank you for reading this post.

Love Everybody and Soul on your path

There will come more about my belief when the time is right.

Head Position and Depression


Hi and welcome to MyThoughtsForYourTime (MTFYT) blog.

This is where I will just spill some thoughts and theories that I feel needs to be shared. *BTW* I am A. William Olsen aka. Awillo, and I am the administrator and author of bigbluehamster.com and saaho.net.

But that is not so important in this case.

The Topic for today is “Head Position and Depression”. This is something that I found out for a little while ago, but it is amazingly true.

Ever heard anybody say, “keep your head up”, “Straighten up little soldier” and similar phrases? I have heard it a bunch of times. Why would that actually be a vital point to keep a good mood, or being glad? well, there are lots of reasons probably, but here is the reason I picked up.

When our neck is bendt forward and our head hangs, it prevents (I guess) Endorphines to reach the brain properly or not at all. If our system do not execute this procedure when needed we feel blue, and starts to think bad thoughts that often triggers depression and anxiety and other sicknesses. This position is actually called “depression”, according to kyropraktors (I think).

Do or did you ever feel down on school while leaning forward and studying (with head down) or stearing at something on your desk? This is likely a reason for why.

Or if you often walk around with your head and eyes pretty much facing the ground, like many of us does this when we allready are depressed. This way of walking actually make you feel worse.

This is something I feel can be a little problem for many of us tall folks, bending the neck large parts of the day.

I did not know this for a short month ago and was suprised to hear that the reason for many depressions often was so simple. Well there are many things that can make you feel depressed, so do not think this is the reason for it every time. But it helps to know how to not make it worse :)

Sitting with a good posture, or generally be straight in the back and neck is something i think will allow the endorphines flow through the body like they’re supposed to.

If you feel down or can’t smile for some reason you can’t explain. I would check my posture and the position I face my head in my case.

Think about this for a while and try to fit this in your daily routine or something, and please give me a feedback on this theory.

Thank you for reading, untill next time

“Straighten up little soldier!”

I’d love to get suggestions on something to theorize on or read anything you have a theory of you’d like to share with me. Please Give me a comment.
