About Me:
Hello! I'm Robs, another lost soul trying to find his way. I'm interested in life and all of its aspects in a degree uncomparable with my friends, who might aspire to become doctors, and that doesn't sound bad at all. What terrifies me slightly is being locked up doing the same thing my entire life. So who am I? A person who would like to become as good as possible at as many things as possible. I want to break free of the bonds that society has put on me from birth and become all that I can become, for benefit of all.
Favorite music:
Queen
Favorite movies:
Gandhi
Favorite books:
Into the Wild
Goals/Projects/Aspirations:
Gain as deep a understanding of as many things as possible, and believing that the only limit is the time I have left, the result can only depend on how fast my motor's spinning. Today I've just begun this quest, but I envision a future where I can do whatever I want in the moment, and feel limited only by the lack of understanding.

Re: your recent status msg/question -

I would say that learning to write with both hands would be a very useful skill to acquire.  I broke a knuckle in my writing hand several years ago after hitting somebody in the head in a fight, and I was unable to legibly write anything for a few weeks!  I had my hand in a cast, etc. and I had to have my girlfriend do all of my paperwork for my job, including signing my name for me.  I felt very handicapped during that time.

Being right

In a sense I want to blow up the words “right” and “wrong”.  I want to banish them from my vocabulary.More specifically I do not ever wish to BE right.And I do not ever want to say to someone else “you are WRONG”. What is the purpose of being or proving oneself to be, right? And what is the purpose of proving someone else is wrong?Apart from some sort of ego based sense of satisfaction what is the purpose of these things? Can anyone give me an answer to this question? If someone says something…See More
