Helsinki

I just got back from 3 days in Helsinki. This was my first trip to Finland.
I did not see much, but I was not impressed with what i saw.
Maybe it was the weather, or the fact that the architecture did not
do much for me. I am going back so I guess Helsinki will get a
second chance.

Middle ground travelling

I do not get couples that have to travel together at all cost. Traveling together most of the time is great, but if he wants to go skiing and she wants to go visit friends- why not. If she wants to visit her mom and he wants no part of it, let him stay home and come the next time...
And the traveling with kids thing. Before people have kids, travel is no problem, as soon as the kids arrive it is all supposedly difficult? I don't have kids, but have traveled with some enough to know with a tiny bit of preparation it is not a big hurdle.. It is just an excuse to not go.

Can you tell I just spent an hour listening to someone creating all these problems for themselves... my god.. find a middle ground people....

Fundamentals

What is most important in your life?
Have you managed to reach your goals?
on a scale 1-100%, how happy are you?

I am 100% clear about my priorities. They are simple,
and boiled down to a few fundamentals. Problem is, I have
discovered that I will never reach a satisfactory score.

So, my question is, how do I remove some
of the most important priorities in my life and find something
to replace them with?And will I become a member of
the 100% club in doing so, or am I fooling myself?

Basics

What are the basics? I believed in Love, knowledge, kids, health- the pursuit of happiness.
What happens when those legs get kicked out from under you?
I am travelling the road without those legs now. A sick involuntary experiment.
If this is the road less travelled i'd opt for the highway.

On boys


I seem to be a magnet on guys I have absolutely no interest in. We are talking
unbalanced misfits.
This raises a few questions:
a, Am I a unbalanced misfit myself - maybe I am in denial?
b, Should I start being rude to unbalanced misfits to not attract them?
c, Should I just ignore the fact that this keeps happening to me?
d, But what about the balanced normal ones?

Answer: d, When I find a somewhat balanced normal person I actually
like -(don't hold your breath, It
occurs once or twice in life and will probably
never even happen again) he quickly head off in the
other direction (see question a, )

So we have established the fact that normal balanced guys are not even
considered an option,
but how do I keep off the misfit radars?

I think I need to go stealth...
