Die With Zero - Does It Make Sense? » Tawcan
After readign Die with Zero, it gave me many interesting thoughts.| Tawcan
I wrote this during the first days of autumn here in the Netherlands while looking out of the window from my desk at the library. There is this pond next to us, full of waterlilies and a big tree which I still need to find its name. But as I stared that quiet morning, I tried to do an exercise on writing. I wrote what I saw and felt with as much clarity as I was allowed. This is the polished result.

I was thinking of how easily our safe world is shaken. We, who live in a ”safe” part of the world cannot understand the horrors of those in unstable countries with war, devastation, starvation. Where people, nature and wild animals pay a high price every day. But we can imagine. We see it every day … Fortsätt läsa Thursday Thoughts – Dear Jane,| Leya

Those last few days were like a taste of freedom. After months and seasons of going to school every day, we could see the light at the end of the tunnel – and boy, did it feel amazing. I have incredibly strong memories of the last days of school throughout my elementary years.

My wife and I are celebrating our 35th wedding anniversary this year (and 38 years of being a couple). While on a public ferry in Luxor, Egypt we quizzed each other on the many other ferry boats we had ridden together. We each remembered examples the other hadn’t. It was a fun walk down memory lane from the British Columbia ferry we rode on our honeymoon to a recent public row boat from the cities of Rabat to Salé across the Bou Regreg river in Morocco [see photo above]. | Living The FIgh Life

When you think of Apple, the company and its history, what images come to mind? Perhaps a black-and-white photograph of the two Steves with the Apple ][, the beige Macintosh of 1984, Jobs on stage unveiling the iPhone.
