*yawn*

Good night dear guests and readers :)

I'm back, well-rested but at least a little tired... weird beginning... I like it...

Tonight, I want to talk about one of my most beloved mottos... I think Albert Einstein said it once but i don't know the exact wording.
Something like that:

"Imagination is more important than knowledge, because knowledge is limited."
I think there are some words missing... but i don't mind... that's the important part for me!

I went to school 13 years and I'm quite sure that I'm not the brightest person in the universe... i mean... I’m not stupid... but I’m also no genius. I passed my school leaving examination (Abitur) and I was happy, but I always knew I was not the best... Don't get me wrong... that did not bother me at all... What I want to say is that I don't like people which are proud about what they know...and though defining themselves.

I hope I am able to make myself clear with my wonderful school-english... :)

I respect and like people which are proud about themselves because of what they are, neither for what they are able to do, nor for what they know.

Actually the person doesn’t have to be proud about his/herself. It’s enough for me to know what kind of person he or she is.

But to get back to good old Albert… I pretty much like myself for what I am. I know… self-praise sucks! but…

The fact that I’m confident with myself does not mean that I’m a pretentious asshole. In actuality I’m quite shy… But I’m convinced that, what Einstein said is just important… Living in our world is not about knowledge… and imagination is almost everything! Not only some kind of fantasy, sitting alone in a dark room pretending to be a knight in shiny armour. It’s the imagination to read somebody’s thoughts, to know how to react in specific interpersonal relations and many more… I’m only good at it if I know the person, otherwise I might be good at it too with strangers but I’m not that overconfident to say everything in everyones face… that would be quite impolite too :)

I hope I was able to make myself understandable… if not…. write a comment :)

Besides it’s late… and I want to go to sleep…perhaps next time i will be a bit more detailed?!

Sleep well … whoever is reading this…
