Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book is trying to define the beautiful and the dark side from a man and a woman, that are in love of each other, but not as theory ... but as a result of analyzing facts that are happening on the timeline of the love story. It’s a book about a fairy tale, with 2 lovely characters that are not understanding, but also are not accepting that the meaning of an abstract love ... or an imposible story is to enjoy only the beauty of what is going on. The 2 people from the essays get lost so many times, that not even the people around them can’t see if the story itself is real or not. But it’s all a journey of accepting the beautiful and the dark side from the person that you love so much. After the first period when you are blinded by love, it comes the second episode when you see that you are not in love with a god, but with a human being ... and just as you have millions of imperfections ... the same has also that magic person that you fall in love with. It’s a book that defines the fact that we should accept the things just as they are ... and love with an opened heart ... no matter what is going on. The nice part is that the book is not a collection of imaginary stories ... but essays that talks about a real story between 2 adults that wants to redefine and also restart their lives ... but in the end just enjoy the fact that they met ... losing any expectation at all as the story to become a real one. Today you are happy, tomorrow you are not .. and the essays describes this in a very honest, but also beautiful way ... all those amazing moments spent togheter.

Download or read book PHILOSOPHY OF NOTHING written by Adrian Gabriel Dumitru and published by Adrian Gabriel Dumitru. This book was released on with total page 103 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book “PHILOSOPHY OF NOTHING” is a collection of essays that are trying to send the message that in a relationship you can be happy even if you don't have a real relationship togheter, in a clasical way, but also be unhappy when you have everything togheter. Having everything, but actually having nothing … having nothing, but actually having everything is an idea that we should meditate on it. We live in a world of unhappy marriages, that should be totally redefined, but actually are dying little by little, day by day ... with no change from any of the 2 partners. Wainting for NOTHING for years, doing NOTHING … but expecting everything from the other side. Love is not math and will never be. Love is not a business and will be never be. Philosophy of NOTHING is trying to define the beautiful side, but also the dark side of the love stories. The book does not have any architecture and is just a collection of essays. And maybe the only message of the book is quite simple: to be happpy you probably need NOTHING, but enjoy the present moment with the person you are in the story. Daring to do it … you don't need anything, cause you actually have everything, the love story itself.

Download or read book ABSTRACT LOVE written by Adrian Gabriel Dumitru and published by Adrian Gabriel Dumitru. This book was released on 2020-12-06 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are lots of books published every year, with all kinds of theories, but not so many expressing the concept of abstract love. I would define this a reflection of our thoughts into the real life. We call it abstract, cause have nothing to do with the normal dogmatic way of seeing the love stories. Real love, that perfect scenario with the perfect partner, can be seen at any age, depending of the luck our karma allows us to have. But we want it so much, that the Universe allows us this meeting, with only one obstacle which in many cases makes the love story imposible. Thinking in a positive way, we redefine the imposible story as an abstract one. Being a reflection of our dreams, the story itself is a perfect one, except the fact that you cannot enjoy the story into the real word, creating the image of an illusion. Imposible love stories are present all over the world. After posting a long time in social media, i received messages from people from all the continents telling me about them. The word “love” being present near the word “imposible”, creates this strange, illusory and abstract way of seeing the magic of love. The book is a collection of essays, my thoughts about the interconnection between the illusion and reality. I used a lot the term illusion, cause we all look for perfect scenarios, especially when it comes to love, but the truth is that perfection is far, far away of reality. We can interconnect illusions with the real world ... just through imposible love stories. In the end, the book is a personal development writing, that allows us to understand the magic of love but also a method that teaches how to enjoy life even if we dislike the word “imposible”.

Download or read book David Lynch written by Greg Olson and published by Scarecrow Press. This book was released on 2008-09-29 with total page 749 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For nearly 40 years, David Lynch's works have enthralled, mystified, and provoked viewers. Lynch's films delve into the subjective consciousness of his characters to reveal both the depraved darkness and luminous spirituality of human nature. From his experimental shorts of the 1960s to feature films like Eraserhead, The Elephant Man, Blue Velvet, Mulholland Drive, and INLAND EMPIRE, Lynch has pushed the boundaries of cinematic storytelling. In David Lynch: Beautiful Dark, author Greg Olson explores the surreal intricacies of the director's unique visual and visceral style not only in his full-length films but also his early forays into painting and short films, as well as his television landmark, Twin Peaks. This in-depth exploration is the first full-length work to analyze the intimate symbiosis between Lynch's life experience and artistic expressions: from the small-town child to the teenage painter to the 60-year-old Internet and digital media experimenter. To fully delineate the director's life and art, Olson received unprecedented participation from Lynch, his parents, siblings, old school friends, romantic partners, children, and decades of professional colleagues, as well as on-set access to the director during the production of Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me. Throughout this study, Olson provides thorough analyses of the filmmaker's works as Lynch conceived, crafted, and completed them. Consequently, David Lynch: Beautiful Dark is the definitive study of one of the most influential and idiosyncratic directors of the last four decades.

Download or read book Looking for Light from the Dark Side of the Moon written by Gordon L Ewell and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2015-09-23 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is the hope of both authors that everyone who reads this book may relate personally, in some way, to some of the poems contained in this book, and know that they are not alone in their feelings. Whether good feelings, or bad, the intent of this book of poetry is to let others know that their feelings are genuine, real, and they are not alone in the way they perceive any given situation. That there are others who share the same feelings that they do; and for better or worse, no one has to endure or suffer alone, nor keep quiet their feelings of success and victory. We all share common threads of emotions and are all lifted up by hearing of someone elses experiences; both successes and failures. Each of us has something to share, something we can relate to, and something of ourselves that we can pass along to others to make the road they are traveling on a little smoother than the person who went before them. We all indeed have something to share with each other. We all indeed have knowledge that someone can benefit from hearing about. It is to that end that we have composed this book of poetry and stand-alone thoughts; that someones day may be a little bit brighter, just knowing that they are not alone in the way they are thinking or feeling.

Download or read book PRACTICING THE NONSENSE AS AN ART written by Adrian Gabriel Dumitru and published by Adrian Gabriel Dumitru. This book was released on with total page 73 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is the non sense? What is behind it? What is hided in the things that makes no sense at all?! Why we have them in our lives?! Who’s responsible of generating that?! Are we attracting the non sense ... or we are the ones behind the creation of it?! Should we accept it ... or simple smile in front of it ... and actually understand that the non sense itself is the expression of the fact that we are on a journey on a pathless path?! Lots of question ... and maybe no real answer. Or maybe lots of answers ... but none of them is satisfying us. I was reading tons of books ... with the hope that one day ... i will find the right algorithm so that i can totally remove the non sense from my life. Until one day ... when a lady friend of mine ... that i consider an expert into dealing and understanding the energies of life ... told me ... “Why do you think the nonsense is keep appearing yourself .... but is not present at all in my life?! Why those situations are appearing on and on and on?! I am sure ... you can accept ... at least for a while ... that the problem itself is not life and circumstances ... but you.” As always ... she was tough with me, but each time i was speaking with her ... i was clarifying for myself lots of things. But the ... nonsense ... was still there. It was indeed a part of my life ... and i had to learn how to deal with it. Somehow ... i was in the position of being forced to learn to practice the non sense as an ... art. It’s quite a ridiculous concept .... but there was nothing else to do ... cause it appeared on and on and on. Each day i was waking up ... i’ve been asking myself .... what the hell is going to happen today?! What else ... could it be?! I felt trapped in a prison with invisible walls ... and i could not find any way out of this story ... so all it was left to do was to see the message behind all what was going on. And until then ... i had to redefine my perceptions about any circumstances. Somehow the Universe was forcing me to become an artist .... in dealing and practicing daily nonsense ... but i was still hoping that one day the awakening moment will appear ... and the illusion of life will be revealed for me ...
