I've seena couple of days ago in a German TV program (Beckmann) a Profi biker confessing that the whole T-Mobile biking team was doping for years. He said he had to do so. By normal training, you would go no where. The whole team had to do it. that was the system .... join them or leave them. The team had to do this so that the sponsor would sign the contract for the next year, and each biker had to do it so that he doesn't lose his job and be thrown out of the team.

During the conversation, it was clear that they couldn't just blame the physicians, the bikers or the trainers as being responsible. They have stressed the influence of the "system", and that single persons stand helpless in such situations. They are really - at least in their opinion - not to be blamed, but the whole system is to be blamed.
Nowadays, and due to the fierce competition and globalization, more and more "systems" are getting corrupted. And one really has to face the truth, "Join them or leave them" is indeed a challenging reality.
Now comes the important question, is man only part of the system, moulded by its norms? to what extent is this true? Can a human being "change" the system? or it's just that the system, due to inherent factors, comes to the point where it must change? To what extent are humans accredited for changes that take place?
bored? ... I beg your pardon, this was just haflata !!!!!!!

The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy!

In the famous book "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" by Douglas Adams, a super computer called "Deep thought" was built to answer the ultimate question; the question of life, universe and everything. Once the computer was put to work and asked if it can answer this question ........ "Difficult !"was the reply ........ and so it asked for some (10) million years to find it ....

After 10 million years, all the people on that planet gathered and in a very solemn scene, they asked the computer for the answer ...

The computer replied in a deep slow voice:
"The answer to the ultimate question" ....

pause .....

"life" .........

pause ......

"universe" .....

pause .....

"and everything" .....

pause...

"the answer" .....

pause .....

"is" .........

pause ......

"42"

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Of course you can imagine how dumbfounded those aliens were (and me too :( ) despite the brilliantly hilarious answer!!! But you know what .... I badly need this answer ....... more than anything you can imagine. I'm about to finish my doctorate and am supposed to look what to do next ..... however, I have a multitude of ways to go and needs to fulfil ..... should I go back home and enjoy being among friends and family but suffer the absolute mess and lack of perspective? Should I stay abroad, build a career but suffer being foreign? In the career, should I go for the money, or should I seek to research things that one day may be useful for humanity? Should I go back home to get married, or should I look for a muslim girl anywhere else in the world? Should I plan my life and adhere to the plan, or should I "live and enjoy" my life just as it is?

If only the computer could give a meaningful answer, perhaps then I would have known which way to go. Perhaps then I could put my priorities.

Could any one of you help?
