Connections

I feel like tons of things have happened in my life in the last few weeks.
That's the reason of my missing in the blogsphere. But here I am, to write about connections...
I can't remember right now the details but the inspiration for this post is a report about Steve Jobs, from Apple.
Since I read it, a month ago, I've been thinking of how much it has to do to what I've been living right now.
In this report he says something like we aren't able to make all the connections in our lives (in the present for the future), which means, we can't figure out what exactly is going to happen based on what we do. We just know something is going to happen.
I've had a professional opportunity lately (the reason of my lack of time to write) that I believe to prove this theory.
The theory that future is made by ourselves.
But, hey, I am not talking about great things... I believe that little but powerful details build our destiny. For the good or not.
Quoting a good friend of mine (that quoted someone else)... "God is in the details".
I believe the results are in the details.
So don't avoid doing things if you can't make these connections to your future, because this is something we don't know much about.
Try new things, be open minded, do good stuff. You'll see how helpful it will be to you one day.
Have a good week! (am back!) :o)

Hello, New to your blog....I just read somewhere that

"Your today is the tomorrow that you worried about yesterday."

So may be if we just stop thinking a lot and enjoy every moment of life as it comes, there will be no need to predict future. What do you say?

I like your previous posts as well..They are very thoughtful.

What's the difference of being different?

Yesterday I felt like Shrek... not belonging to the world. I felt like a stranger and that made me feel really sad. But you know what? Today I see a positive side of it. I mean... what is the point of being like everyone? Being different doesn't mean, in the first place, being wrong. Being different means being yourself. How many brilliant and talented people have contributed to the world? Weren't they different? That's why they could make the difference. From this point of view, I kinda like the idea of being different. In fact, I love that! Check out what people think about being different... "In order to be irreplaceable one must always be different." (Coco Chanel) "Be daring, be different, be impractical, be anything that will assert integrity of purpose and imaginative vision against the play-it-safers, the creatures of the commonplace, the slaves of the ordinary." (Cecil Beaton) "Share our similarities, celebrate our differences." (M. Sco...

Changing your perspective

A few weeks ago there was this huge blackout in Brazil, caused by a technical problem in Itaipu dam, the second-largest hydroelectric power producer in the world ( Yahoo news here ). It was very weird and a bit scary to realize how dependent we are on eletricity. For hours there was no TV, no radio, no computer. Some cellphones weren't working and despite my notebook being ok, it seemed useless without internet. I was at home when it happened and I prayed for those people who were out of their homes at that time. I imagine how many of them were in the subway, in the elevator, at the office, alone on the street. I remembered people in hospital and all kinds of situation in which people are highly dependant on electricity. I took that time to think and I realized we should be always ready to live with little, even though the media keeps saying we need more and more, in this endless consumption world. I remember the day after the blackout some people would complain about missing a...

Priorities...

I am impressed by the fact that most people doesn't know what is really important in their lives. In fact, everybody knows what is best and could make their own top 10 list, but theory sometimes is far away from the reality. I myself have had a hard time trying to balance my priorities. And it seems that I never get it. I had a teacher in my master who used to compare economy to a short blanket. He used to say "If the country reduces the interests in order to acelerate the economy, it will suffer from inflation. On the other hand, if it increases the interests in order to control the inflation, it will suffer from stagnation". From that I want to make a parallel to our lives. To cover all we need or want we sometimes change our priorities. In this way, we are constantly trying to balance our lives, though not always with success. Since the last few weeks I've had some struggles. I've had no answer for them or maybe I just couldn't see their real importance. Th...
