Dedicated to Steve Jobs

“Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.”

Don't forget

Too often we forget where we come from; worse, we forget that one day we'll die.

What of us will survive?

Life

One life is not enough to embrace all the aspects of Nature and Physics.
One life is not enough to love all the loves we have.
One life is not enough to hug all the friends we meet.
One life is not enough to read all the books we would like to read.
One life is not enough to appreciate the little hands of our sons or our parents when they caress us on the arm.
One life is not enough to understand how much we throw away.

But.

One life is too much when you're badly sick.
One life is too much when you're bombed from the sky and you don't even know why.
One life is too much to hold your mind when you're mad.
One life is too much for those who throw it away with drugs.
One life is too much when you spend your time mourning.
One life is too much when you lose a son or a daughter.

Insomnia

I suffer from insomnia, from time to time. I've never found a good definition. Until now.

Insomnia:

"It's the cost of being human and having the capacity to worry about the future and chew over the past."

Rudeness

We've been invited by the neighbors for a birthday celebration. We sit on a sofa trying to talk, eating sweets, while our neighbors were ... watching TV.

That's one of the worst cases of rudeness I've seen within the walls of a house. My ancestors were used to say "O tempora, o mores!". When the bell rings, at home, the TV is the first thing that we switch off, but maybe I'm a white flyer, nowadays.

Amazing photo

What you see here is a detail of the Saturn's rings. The shadows are left by the debris orbiting around Saturn.
This photo is amazing not only for its intrinsic beauty, but also for the dimensions involved.
The Universe is a huge and marvelous place and it's where I was born, so I have to understand as much as I can before to leave.
