Esther Perel Mating in Captivity Book

Esther Perel's book made me think about several things. Most importantly, about the way we could preserve intimacy in a marriage. It's not a secret that after a few years, sexuality and intimacy fall to the second place after stability, family and daily routine. However, Esther Perel offers a few ideas and examples on how to avoid disillusionment and frustration.

The book entitled 'Mating in Captivity' (you can read the book here) is fascinating and inspiring. Readers have the chance to learn more about the way intimacy disappears and the tricks we can use to preserve it. The difference between a harmonious relationship and sexual compatibility or pleasure is HUGE.

I wanted to share with you my admiration for this revealing book. I hope this post will convince you of the importance of intimacy and harmony in your relationship or marriage.

Vanilla Sky, Open Your Eyes....

Choosing between a chaotic still controllable life and the cruelty of the real world is the main theme in the Vanilla Sky, Open Your Eyes blockbuster movie.

The prophetic vision of producer Cameron Crowe and the unforgettable performance of Tom Cruise and Penelope Cruz in this hypnotic love story could wipe out all our old-fashioned convictions about a linear story-line and the presence of science fiction in our life.

The lucid dream of David Aames with New Age references is the amazing symbiosis of an imaginary world and the memories of a young media tycoon ready to sacrifice the world of the rich and famous on the altar of eternal love.

Vanilla Sky, Open your Eyes is the movie that changed the life of millions with its pioneering worldview and the visionary soundtrack which could lure us into the magical realm of life extension.

I don't want to offer too many details about the plot....watch this trailer as the best appetizer for the movie...:)
AHHHHHHH.....and the amazing soundtrack....I adore Cameron Crowe and his team....:)

The Diving Bell and the Butterfly….

Trapped in your own body, trying to offer the world a vague sense of your state is literally backbreaking. In the movie The Diving Bell and the Butterfly we’ll have the chance to get familiarized with the story of the late Editor of ELLE magazine, Jean-Dominique Bauby. In 1995 the famous socialite suffered a severe stroke also called a ’locked’ syndrome. Leaving his body completely paralzed and his mind working miraculously precise, was indeed one of the greatest dramas a man can ever face. The movie directd by Julian Schnabel and starring Mathieu Amarlic is a modern day masterpiece. 

The audience hears the thoughts of Bauby and has the opportunity to share the most delicate moments with this person imprisoned in his diving bell. Soon it turns out that this story is more than just a biographical production. The universal story of pople who are stuck in a pretty hopeless situation and they have only one super-thin string that ties them to this world. Memories and imagiantion are the only values that keep us humans as the movie suggests, and we hear the words of Bauby in our ears…..

„Whereupon a strange euphoria came over me. Not only was I exiled, paralyzed, mute, half deaf, deprived of all pleasures, and reduced to the existence of a jellyfish, but I was also horrible to behold. There comes a time when the heaping up of calamities brings on uncontrollable nervous laughter - when, after a final blow from fate, we decide to treat it all as a joke.”

It seems humor is indeed a solution to everythings and can free us from the huge loads of stress accumulated through the years of low periods…..Give yourself a break and see how hard it is to stay sane in a world that practically drives you crazy, while you’ll left completely motionles and impotent…..

Venus Project, the world has never been so edenic….

Imagine a brave new wold in which you’ll have the chance to experience a complete re-design of modern culture. The Venus Project is indeed a comprehensible symbiosis of humans, nature and technology at its highest form. In the pursuit of happiness, Jacques Fresco the futurist mastermind behind the idea of Venus Project as well as the modern Zeitgeist movement managed to come up with a revolutionary fantasy that busts all myths of the dark and threatening future of mankind. Instead Resource-based economy is what could solve all our apocalyptic dilemmas…

If we wish to simplify things it is the ambition to take full advantage of our resources and the re-evaluation of our values. While Social reformers stick to the realistic perspectives and are afraid of taking a too far-fetched position on our future, Jacques Fresco is all we need to open our eyes to a new approach towards future and how we can contribute to the improvement of our society.

The main objectives of Venus Project:

·         money is gradually eliminated and we learn to work with our resources.

·         use technology to produce goods in abundance for mankind

·         money is not all we need, in fact it is the access to all the important necessities of life.

·         money is not important…imagine if you’re profession is teaching you offer it without asking for money, whereas you can get free medical service from doctors…as you teach their children without having to deal with financial issues. Give and receive without complicating things with money.

·         the main objective is to develop without thinking about financial issues and wealth as it is perceived today.
