Samurai encountering! Some sort of monster that is not there yet.
Call me a bluff, but I couldn't figure out what I wanted bursting through that opening.

Comments should be working now, my carelessness exceeds me at times.
Ace job Toniko on the two posts :)
"068. Make others understand.
It is more excellent than making them remember, for intelligence is much greater than memory. Sometimes you should remind other people, and other times counsel them about the future. Some people failed to do things that were ripe for doing simply because it never occurred to them. Let friendly advice point out the advantages. One of the greatest gifts is to size up quickly what matters. When this is lacking, many successes go undone. Let the person who has light give it to others, and let those who lack it ask for it, the former with prudence, and the latter with discretion, merely dropping a hint. This delicacy is especially necessary when the person giving advice has something at stake. It is best to show good taste and to be more explicit only when insinuation is not enough. A "no" has already been given, and you can now search skillfully for a "yes." Most of the time things are not obtained because they were not attempted."

If you know the movie, you know what role the rose petals hovering play!

Mech Pilots, got to love them. Mechwarrior was the first game that tingled both my brain lobes in ways I simply cannot write in words. It was the first series I fell in love with and with the new announcement of mechwarrior 5, my inner child has been reborn.
Mechwarrior was the sole reason to me buying a joystick, and now it seems that I have to save a little bit so that I may purchase one once more.

And here we go, another great hybrid that has always peaked my interest. The soul combination of East meets West. The samurai knight or what ever lofty titles people dubbed this magnificent hybrid of culture.
This is a combination of photos and being painted on. A good friend once told me why create something that has already been created? Instead just improve on add onto it to fit your vision.
I was listening to the Yoshida Brothers - Erghen Diado (#30 on playlist)

Life, quite a mysterious entity that come with quite a package to handle with all it's
musing and realities. I'm finally editing this template and will further do so in hopes that I can fully customize it to my liking.
I've mostly been reading the grand teachings of Baltasar Gracian and will take it upon myself to post a few extracts every now and then. Think of it as a sort of "a better you" a day at a time, that is, of course, I continue to do such frequent updates.
In the mean time enjoy the "Mood Enhancer" with select pieces that I hold dear to my heart due to one reason or another. They are that of the trip-hop genre,ambient and just generally what I,myself, consider good music, as most of us have to come to realise that good music has died off many eons ago and only pieces of it are scattered and compressed by the sheer demand (dominance) of mainstream music, but when we do finally find them its value matches that of a diamond.

A Proteus of discretion. Learned with the learned, saintly with saints. This is a great way to capture the goodwill of others, for similarity generates benevolence. Observe people's temperaments, and adapt yourself accordingly. Whether you're with a serious person or a jovial one, follow the current, and politely transform yourself. This is especially true of those who depend on others. It is a great stratagem for living prudently, and it requires much capacity. It is less difficult for the person with a well-informed intellect and varied tastes."
