Respect and Fear : Had a string of thoughts that occurred early in the morning, thinking about the Teachers who really commanded Respect because of who they were as teachers, inspiring and encouraging. And then the majority of the rest of pretentious teachers, who are worse than toxic waste and worse than the politicians who ruin other peoples lives.
Many people think that because they have power that they command Respect, but no, its not respect, all they got is Fear from others and fear growing with in themselves.
When you command true Respect, you have nothing to fear. Its there to stay because you earned it. Unlike fear, which would disappear the moment you loose your power or position.
It was great 3 days of hiking around Philly, New Jersey and New York. loved the people energy in NY and visiting the museum. Wished I could have spend more time at the museum.
It was good (not great) going to the indian restaurant for lunch buffet. Drank about 4 to 5 cups of Masala Chai (tea). was hyper after that and was not able to sleep at night.
Still feel the hyperness induced by caffine.
Wanted to go out salsa dancing at the Vang yesterday, but after starting off felt discouraged by the rainy weather and drove back after a couple of miles. It sucks that all the dance places are about 40 miles away and takes about 1 hr to reach.
Vang seems to hold special place for me, meeting some new and good gals there. Last week remember the Russian gal, who seemed to be a professional dancer, was kind of scared asking her to dance as she seemed to be so technically perfect. And she looked at me expecting me to ask her to dance and that caused more pressure on me and did not have enough emotional power to ask her to dance. But have to give it to her, she looked so naturally beautiful. Like a movie star with the perfect face. Wonder what her story is.
She seems to be nice and seems to dance with everyone who asks her to dance.
What a day, full of rain, rain and more rain. Actually seems to be more rain than when the hurricane Irene came visiting last week end. This they said is the remains of hurricane lee and it is pouring non stop. I am sure if this continues, we are going to have some severe flooding.
It was kind of DE-motivating and depressing to wake up again and not have anything productive to do. Almost 2 months. With couple of hope, one in India and another in Dallas. Hope I can get the one in Dallas and then be able to get parents on a trip.
