For this week’s theme, Johnny chose “RACE AGAINST TIME” to kickstart the New Year!
Student: Why is time so ephemeral? I’m falling in love, and time doesn’t exist. When taking my exam there’s immense time pressure, and yet meditating for 20 mins feels like an hour?
Master: Glances at the clock. Making time in our minds, it can be perceived that way. But does that make it so?
What are we really racing against? Is time just a byproduct of mind? How has it served us, or are we perpetual slaves to it?
Massive Attack – Paradise Circus Lyrics
♪It’s unfortunate that when we feel a storm
We can roll ourselves over ’cause we’re uncomfortable
Oh well, the devil makes us sin
But we like it when we’re spinning… in his grip♪

Happy New Year! Plz don’t be grumpy. 🙂
T’was dodgysurfer who introduced Sainkho Namtchylak to me.
Velly intellesting collection ….. rubbing long boney hands with very long fingernails together …
The bird-head clip reminded me of a scene in COCO AVANT CHANEL … I did not find the particular (on You Tube) scene I was thinking of, but did get reminded of how amazing Coco Chanel was. Good movie, when you have some free time. Happy New Year again.

Yes many thanks to Dodgy, but i always find amazing & unique artists from your music themes. Bear are you still playing the Grinch? But u’ve already given us so much, more than u’ll ever know.♥
Thanks for the recommendation, i couldn’t find that specific movie title on the web. I did enjoy “Coco Before Chanel” starring Audrey Tautou as Coco.
Also found: Coco – Inside CHANEL, informative vignettes
And a wonderfully painless New Year to you! 😀
