Bogdanism

Bogdanism (from old Slavic name with the root Bogdan) is a stream of philosophy, which is influenced by Ukrainian and German culture but is by no means similar to either; the core of Bogdanism is to refuse or resist any forms of arrangements, planning, schedules, and is to act as one's wish at any time and space. Bogdanists are more likely to be found in remote villages, abandoned locations or forests rather than modern cities.

Good Advice

Recently I've been thinking a lot about "the ultimate question of life, the universe and everything". Suddenly I remembered the advice which was given to me at, probably, the hardest time of my life so far by a man whom I admire for his intellectual rigor.

... there are situations in your life which you hate like nothing else because things are not going the way you want it… and worst of all is that you probably can’t do anything about it. In situations like this you can stress yourself out or do the only right thing - relax and take it all in as it comes. We all live in chaos and according to the chaos theory all things will take their place at the right time... regardless of the fact whether you want it or not. So lean back and take it all in as it comes...

At the time I was given that advice, I didn't appreciate it since I considered it as inappropriate for my particular situation. Only after some notable time I got behind it, what a genius advice indeed it was.
