I just miss you so much but I don't matter to you anymore I will to tell my heart that It is not cooperating at the moment
Gathering thoughts…
Gathering thoughts…
A world of little thoughts.
I just miss you so much but I don't matter to you anymore I will to tell my heart that It is not cooperating at the moment
Hoje uma amiga querida me deu apoio em duas situações. Uma sobre um caso que ela sabia e outro que ela não fazia ideia. O caso que ela sabia diz respeito a falar inglês. Com anos de estudo, eu consigo entender 80% do que falam, escrever bem, mas a fala ainda arrasta numa performance medíocre. Hoje, especificamente,…
you keep shouting my name on the sidelines so much so, that - unconsciously, of course, and probably without intent - you became my biggest cheerleader, even when i don’t do things exactly right i’ve never had that. then, i noticed that you apply the same softness in other aspects of our… acquaintance the first to ask…
People study for many different reasons, be that exams, getting a new job, or getting into a university. However, what we often miss is the end goal, the big picture, if you will. If we do not keep that in mind, then studying becomes meaningless and spirals into an unhealthy aspect of your life. But first, what is the…
Creating is hard - so much harder than consuming. Sometimes I find myself trapped in a consumption hole, paralized by the amount of blood, sweat, and tears it takes to create. Consuming might be way easier and more stimulating in the short term. However, it is not fulfilling; it's a trap. Creating is hard, but it is…
Today, it’s easier than ever to live the life you want. It doesn’t take long scrolling social media to see words like intention, mindfulness, and goals. The question is, do you know what you want? “Nothing will bring you peace except yourself.” -Ralph Waldo Emerson You must know yourself to know what you want. With…
Hoje eu vou escrever dois textos pq me atrasei no dia 9. Não escrevi por conta da ansiedade pra um amigo secreto que eu não queria ir. Bora pro primeiro. Cara, que assustador viver neste país sabendo que a qualquer momento um louco pode fazer qualquer coisa com você, com patrimônio público e praticamente nada…
The doors open wide And you see the light Finally after a long long time And your heart rejoices In glee and delight It dances to songs that it never had the ability to hear before And now it has forgotten the pain Of the chains That bound it from becoming Who it was always anyways It danced and danced As if there was…
Hello Folks, Today I write about the story of football and its significance in our history & the impact the sport has had around the world. As I Write this, one of the greatest players to ever walk on the field is probably playing his-LAST DANCE match. (More on that!) Football is probably the most democratic sport, it…
If you're observant of how you live, it is easy to realize that most of us live on autopilot. We're usually getting by every day, figuring stuff out on our own. On most days, it is rewarding to be self-sufficient. However, the more isolated lives we lead, the more difficult it is to know when to seek help from…
All great people have gone through hell. All great individuals have endured their share of challenges. In our world, where we constantly compare ourselves through the touch of our phones, we've forgotten the effort it takes to achieve what we see on our screens. History repeatedly demonstrates that life consists of a…
the startling, borderline terrifying -- yet strangely comforting in its reassurance of purpose -- ephiphany: this is FOREVER, this writing gig, this cook & tell revival. like the jarring middle-of-the-night realization in early sobriety. and then, as it did almost a quarter century ago, the universe gave a little…
There are myriad of ways in which one can claim that a person has lived a good life. After all, isn't what we are all aiming for ? To have a "good life". Obviously, the definitions of the same may differ. It maybe defined by certain achievements, familial bonds or a hundred other ways. But this writer just wants to…
ahhh dont let design go around in circles, indefinitely. it must stop at some point, when is that point...
i have never done anything in my life i've hated as much as thinking about boat work not even working in a psychiatric hospital or sitting through tantrum fits of children who don't want to play the piano but who are anxious when i suggest that they stop taking lessons i hate this so much and i hate sebastian for…
Despite my scientific background, education, and critical thinking skills — I am extremely superstitious. I am not religious. I love the contrarian viewpoint. I am able to think for myself. Yet I am incredibly superstitious. It is primarily because of witnessing too many improbable events. In healthcare, some of the…
Last year, I worked on a little project to figure out what we needed to do as a society to prevent us from making our planet unliveable. I took an inevitable deep dive into the climate crisis only to realise that fossil fuel consumption and the resulting runaway warming of our planet is a mere symptom. That trying to…
Today a short chapter of my life ended But every ending is a new beginning I'm looking forward to the new chapter I will fill the pages one by one Always searching for the right path to take ...
A good engineering manager should prevent knowledge hoarding. Knowledge hoarding happens when an individual contributor mistakenly believes that it is in his self-interest to be the only person who knows how to do something on a team. This increases his value to the organization; if he shares his knowledge either…
Então, fiquei aqui em casa com a minha dor, fiz uma bolsa de água quente e dormi. Acordei brevemente pra comer salada de beterraba com tomate e farofa de banana, voltei a dormir. Abri o whats e vi que um grupo que eu sou adm estava pipocando, não consegui responder nem ajudar em nada. Voltei a dormir e acordei pro…
looks so much like my cousin that i'm not allowed to have a crush on him but old keanu reeves...
I went to dinner with a group of strangers. After each course, I was paired with someone new. I met three interesting people. There was a stack of conversational cues on the table if we didn't know what to talk about. We were allowed talk about anything we want, except what we do. This wasn't about dating. That's not…
I have spent an obnoxious amount of time asking myself, "what should I do with my life?" Not because there is anything necessarily "to do" or because I have an inherently unsatisfying or distressing life. In fact, it's quite the opposite. I have a cushy, work-from-home, tech-adjacent, golden-handcuffs, kind of job. Me…
Eu me sinto um ET quando depois de um dia inteiro de trabalho intenso, não tenho energia para ir pra bar e ficar bebendo até 22h, sendo que eu sei que preciso acordar amanhã de novo às 6h e pouca da manhã... Onde essas pessoas (a maioria) arranja energia para fazer isso? Sinto que vim com um defeito de fábrica. Hoje…
Had such an amazing and cathartic session with Omar. 1. We looked back at and appreciated the journey I've been on this year. 2. He gave me the external validation I needed - what I felt was real. My pain was real. What I went through was indeed emotional abuse. Omar said that abusive people need to do a lot of work…
The self-help genre is the second most addicting substance that is fully legal in the world. In case you’re wondering, coffee is first by a long mile. The self-help industry is worth over 10 billion dollars, and I imagine will continue to grow as we search for more answers on how to improve. We read books and listen…
Now its 2024. Vibe coding is here. Its like telling the computer to make what you want - mobile app, web app etc and it will create for you. You do need to know some basics and sometimes a lot more than basics depending on what your idea needs to come out and feel alive. Even I, I am also learning this. I am vibe…
L’inconnu est le champ d’exercice idéal de l’imposture, pour l’insoutenable envie de croire que l’étrangeté même de certains phénomènes induisent en nous, pour la posture de faiblesse et le manque d’arguments qui nous laissent désemparés face à des discours extraordinaires, mais surtout, parce qu’il n’est rien d’admis…
"Stephen Wolfram proposed to let people choose their own Algorithm: the social platforms could still host your data and provide the interface, but the way the data is aggregated, sorted, and displayed to you would be customized by pluggable algorithms. If any entity were allowed to create and share an algorithm, they…
Got a scan today. Baby's doing well. Growing fast with a good heart beat. I, on the other hand, have been told to take it easy. Little sub chorionic bleed but hopefully it should be fine in a few days and nothing to worry. Morning sickness is through the roof but settles down in the day. Mother's TLC, puzzles, books,…
the problem with creative writing is that it messes with your "serious" writing. when you're in creative mode, you can do whatever you want. there are no rules. you can get away with a hand-wavy explanation of something under the guise of being an artist or whatever. it's not that creative writing doesn't have well…
Depois passar a segunda-feira pós-natal, também feriado na Alemanha, em companhia do meu pijama no sofá, fui tomada por uma energia inesperada. Foi no banho. Lavei os cabelos muito curtos e os olhos, que se recuperam da cirurgia, com cuidado excessivo. Aos poucos, a água quente jorrando com força no meu corpo me…
as for the history of black amerikka, they are & have been in plain sight. over the last 500 years, we just did not have on the correct lenses to see the whips & chains evolving. the programming that took place over 500 years ago during the creating of amerikka worked so well that we don't even know what went on with…
My grandfather's 66th death anniversary was a few days ago. My sister and I never met him, but we join our mother in lighting a small lamp in his memory. A recurring thought on death and bereavement came to mind, perhaps a truism for anyone who has experienced deep personal loss. No matter how empathetic a person you…
I think the hardest thing I’ve had to do is to decide who to be as a creator. Helping others explore and develop their creativity felt much easier than developing my own. There is such joy in standing with another creative and helping them t o aim their creative arrows toward their desired target.…
I recently bought an electric fly swatter to handle the flies in our house. It felt satisfying to quickly zap them away. However, today I encountered a fly that exhibited surprisingly clever behavior during its escape attempts. It almost seemed as if it knew what was coming and was afraid. Killing this particular fly…
One of the most vivid memories I have, of witnessing violence in cinema comes from a Malayalam film called 'Karumadi Kuttan' where the mentally disabled male protagonist is being physically abused by a bunch of goons to the point of him being stripped in public, laughed at, hit-all because the protagonist was trying…
When I was a kid, when guests come home, I would be so painfully shy, to go and just lock myself in the other room. I couldn't understand why my parents were angry and upset with my behaviour, i just liked to be by myself. My son does the same thing what I was as a child, when guests come, he runs away of recedes into…
The same scary thought haunts me It could be the brightest day or the coldest dark night The same thought haunts me It's something I've lived with for years It pops up in my dreams, my daydreams It creeps up on me when I least expect it The same thought haunts me "Why me?" We all have our own version of "why me?" Yet…
Two young fish are swimming along, when they come across an older fish swimming the other way. He nods at them, saying, “Morning, boys. How’s the water?” The two young fish swim on; eventually one of them looks over at the other and goes, “What the hell is water?” David Foster Wallace narrated this parable to…
do you remember when you were 19 and called 28 year olds "silver foxes"? you are now 30.
It’s me…again…here bc I’m wondering what will resonate if/when Twitter really does shift into a place I no longer want to be.
Covid came and Covid went (well, not really). There was isolation for a long time. Then there was not, as long as you wore masks in private spaces. Shortly after I started going out, I began having these recurrent dreams. I would dream that I entered someplace (the bus, the shopping, whatever) and suddenly notice that…
hoping for a universal salvation. hoping that up and above, his mercy is so immense, that though every human soul, when even when they repent, is forgiven and chooses salvation. yet when every human soul is forgiven, teachings are useless and what they preach is disregarded as every sin is still forgiven, no matter…
I have a love and hate relationship with fud. In general, I think it's necessary, especially in a space where 95% of the projects are going to 0. It's good to have some skepticism, but sometimes it's just too much. I've been a cool cat supporter since September. Mainly discovered it through Andrew Wang and a few of my…
Why is it that you see most of the philosophers talking about high performance rarely act upon them and are high performers? Philosophers tend to romanticise life in their heads and yet dont see the beauty of the world they live in. Here, is something to note that I have read some of the works of alan watts, Jiddu…
When we feel displeased with someone, we make every effort to stop any interaction with them. It is liberating to see the difference it makes. In fact, once we have managed to master this detachment, we tend to feel bouts of motivation. The real tragedy is when something that causes us great pain is nothing alien but…
Taking a shower does nothing if you put on dirty clothes afterwards.
