I have come to take things alot less seriosly as i used to – ive realised the sensless and irrational uses of stress.The things that come to light in the most obvious way is that what is done is done.It not going to happen, or perhaps its not what you think it is.Whats done is done.Nothing can be done to prevent the past from being, and their is no whay to change the past – so why try and eqaully why have hope to, for this this brings me to my next point:hope.
Hope can really cripple you when you give yourself too mush based on visions that are imposible and false, like “maybe this….” or “somehow that…”.
I think i have come to make the distinction between what is worth stressing about and what isn’t and most of all, knowing when it is too late.Becasue knowing when something is at the end, you can give yourself false hope – this is good to define – the distintion between that.
Again, as my mother has told me endless times in my life : “you can’t cry over spilt milk” and now it rings true in my mind – i have given substance to that expression – i have redefined it, personally.One lesson i take from this is done is done – and their is no need to worry about the effects of whats done, or rather how you can reverse these effects – sure in most cases the resulting ineviatable effects may no change and can feel perhaps daunting and make you feel bad, but you cant change them – you must face them.If anything deal rather with the effects than +try+ to change what is unchangable.
But even the effects you will know that are certain and nothing will change them at all, so why worry about something that no matter waht you do WONT change – you just have to get there and when you’re there( and KNOW that you’ll get there) just face it.
This is how i feel about losing all this data that is critical and will lead to many months of problems…but hey, i’m writting this right?
Im just going to face the results of my actions, the consequences may not be pleasant but i will have to deal with them – this i feel is the attitide to have in any situation.Its just not worth it, stressing.
oh my god! I’ve delete it all.I finally fixed the problem, then i deleted it all! I still can’t believe it.Deleted it all.Oh my god! Well thats life for you 🙂 .I started off by finding the initial problem with the multimedia application not running – dcop server not runing and thats becuase some files in the homedir became corrupt or unreadable someone,.All this i found out by adding a new user then using that user to run the media application…all fine – all works, then i know its my users home directory thats at fault – since each user gets its own home directory.so then i add a new user and tell it to use my home directory as my its own- Doesn’t work – my home directory IS at fault.Then i delete a dcop file after seeing a suspect msg from startup and it works, i have all my files media apps running smoothly….then now i decide to delete those newly created users…so i do and delete their own home directories…all good, just my user left.Then i try to log in and i cant — i delete that one user that used its homedirecory as its own ( which was my home directory!!!) Ahhh.So i lost my entire 33Gigs of home directory contents – worst is – i didn’t tell it to do that directly….
Im stunned – all that information – gone – no undelete in linux EXT3 filesystem.
Shiat! I can’t belive it…now im cursing the O.S for not telling me that i was removing a user that had links to my home direcory ! No use – worst it i was root to do all this.
Forget ‘check trashbin’ solutions – they don’t work up here in linux!!
Oh woe undo me – you bladdie fool.
