37. what goes around comes around

From New Year's party I came back without one of my earrings. I was kinda sad cause I had them since i was 16. "Oh well" i though. There are worst thing in life then loosing something.

Yesterday I found it! It was lieing on the parking for 3,5 months. In rain, snow and sun. Waiting for me to come and pick it up :)

36. Sleep

My parents, among many things, thought me two:
to respect my money and to work hard.
I do sometimes buy things that i don't really need or are way to expensive.
I do sometimes feel lazy and like doing nothing.
But at the end of the day I earn my good night sleep well :)

Fun fact Saturday: Give-up-itis

Some prisoners in Dachau camp were called "Muslims" by other prisoners. The name was a results of "give-up-itis", mental condition where person has no more hope, does not react on stimulations and gives full control over himself to others, which in most cases was ending with death of the prisoner. Those were called muslims, since it was common opinion that muslim calmly accept their fate.

More about it you can find here: give-up-itis or in Zimbardo's "Psychology and life"

35. Compliments

A man from my gym complimented my body the other day. He said I look much slimmer and that i have nice shape now. I got some compliments from my relatives when we were in Poland but it's kinda extra nice when someone you hardly know pays you one :) Such a shame he is 70 years old :D
