“Everything is as it is right now… perfect… complete.” “We know everything we need to know - we’ve just forgotten” “Trust in the randomness of things, in the chaos of things.”

Invictus - William Ernest Henley
Out of the night that covers me, Black as the pit from pole to pole, I thank whatever gods may be For my unconquerable soul. In the fell clutch of circumstance I have not winced nor cried aloud. Under the bludgeonings of chance My head is bloody, but unbowed. Beyond this place of wrath and tears Looms but the Horror of the shade, And yet the menace of the years Finds and shall find me unafraid. It...

A Rant about Romania

10 Things I Learned from Steve Jobs and his Legacy
1. Focus. Whether that be in your own life or the things you create, put the few best things in and say no to the many others that are even the slightest bit less than that.
2. Use that focus to also keep it simple. Nothing, whether that be your own decisions or the things you design, benefit from excesses. Simplicity is clean and allows you to breathe and see clearly. As Antoine de Saint-Exupery...

Last night, despite having early classes, I stayed up thinking, writing, reflecting until I only had a few hours to sleep. Sometimes, regardless of real world pressures and responsibilities, I am carried away by a moment, and feel compelled to make time that I do not technically have for comparatively “less important” matters.

A school of fish swim as one
with one fish that is all and none
and a silent reverie grows to life
Just as stillness glows the night.
With water-wading to little waist
A silent mind rests aligned,
And closed eyes so mesmerized,
Will raise hands, becoming weightless.
So believe believer, fire dreamer
That you’ll wake one day, all one way
On a bed of light, inside of sight
With a soul afloat the...
