Man, if I had that when I was younger I would be so much better at concentrating now! I always loved the idea of the force and having something like that would have just set me off! Being able to physically move something with my mind, oh man my parents would have never seen me, I would be in my room trying to move that little ball haha

Today it finally arrived. I tried it and the ball went everywhere but not where i wanted it. I tried to relax and the ball went down, to suddenly go up again without feeling that i would have been interrupted in my relaxation. I thought this game is crap.

Then my girlfriend and son tried it, and they had absolutly no problem to control the ball through their relaxation or focus. This tells me something about my mental state...

It also says something about your attitude, to blame it on the game first, and look at yourself only when proven wrong by your girl and kid

hehe yep, but what should i do... im going in circles with that and i gave up. Theres no me who could force something like an awakening. I just can watch this movie and maybe sometime, someday or now im gonna disappear into something bigger.

Its like waking up from a dream... it doesnt matter what i´ve dreamed, the only thing that matters is, that im awake. I can imagine, the only thing i could do is let go... of anything. Then again, that implies that theres someone who could let go.

Useless, isnt it?
