I have just released a tri-lingual tool to conveniently count characters and words in a text you’re writing.
You can easily access the tool through the menu item “100 characters”.

PlusPlus – the positive inner voice
and feel that life sucks
The that inner voice will tell me “You’re OK!”,
“You can do it!, Try again!”
I may feel that nobody in the whole world loves me
“-But what about me?
And, if you make sure that you love yourself, then there’ll be at least two of us.
And, besides, the voice continues, if you just dare to believe it,
you’ll soon notice that you’re highly loved by all living and the whole universe.” Continue reading PlusPlus – the positive inner voice
Why are you here? (100 characters)
I had no answer, despite all the times I’ve asked myself the same direct question.
On the Swedish poetry site poeter.se there’s a rather popular short-story format :”100 words”, i.e. you should write something interesting in exactly 100 words.
I decided to try a new format for poetry, to use exactly 100 characters, including spaces. In the process I realized that Word doesn’t count the “new paragraph”, so neither do I 🙂
What do you think? Is this an interesting format?
Nightmare?
Somehow, I went the wrong way, and ended up on a construction site. Or, so far, they were rather tearing down, than constructing anything.
A guy in protection mask showed up and walked up to me. He asked how I could have missed the fact that everything was changed more than a month ago and this way was closed. Continue reading Nightmare?
Playing as requested…
Someone told me the hour for requests just started.
So here are some requests of mine. Hope you’re OK with them.
Help me to understand people.
Help people to understand me.
(or help me to express myself better,
if that’s easier. Or maybe you can do both)
Help people to understand each other better.
I hope this will make wars end.
Otherwise, please help to finish all wars, too. Continue reading Playing as requested…
Fiction
it won’t limit me, when I want to tell the truth about life.
Victory Day
Over myself.
May every day be a Victory Day!
Can I love, even if I don’t like someone?
Is it even possible to like each and everybody?
I don’t think so.
But then there are people, who are a piece of my life, whether I like it, or not.
Do I have to like them?
Don’t think so, neither. Continue reading Can I love, even if I don’t like someone?
Summing up to solve the equation
Day is turning into night.
It’s time
to solve today’s equation.
What have I done?
What did I miss?
What’s ready?
What’s left?
What did I learn?
What learning did I defer to some other day?
Wait, the sums don’t match,
I must balance debit and credit.
What to do,
Since I know that all the different between plus and minus
is to be paid by restless sleep. Continue reading Summing up to solve the equation
Introduction to User Manual for “Life 1.0” beta
We’re convinced that you will be very satisfied with “Life”.
Please observe, however, that “Life 1.0” still is undergoing
so called “beta testing”.
For you, as a user, this most of all means that
things sometimes don’t go as planned.
In rare cases, things may totally “f-k up”.
If that should happen, try to find some other way of
reaching the desired outcome.
The developers specifically declared a strategy
to allow a large number of alternative paths to
do basically the same things.
(See, for instance, the discussion of similarities
and differences between the major religions in
chapter 2.) Continue reading Introduction to User Manual for “Life 1.0” beta
