    Nothing Is Forever

    What advice would you give to your teenage self?

    Rejection is Part of Life

    Ask out that girl you had a crush on as rejection is part of life. The rejection is having never asked. And by all means take wild adventures outside of your comfort zone. You have no idea where it is going to take you., the rejection is in having never taken that adventure.

    But them again

    The teenage brain is is still a forming undeveloped mass of possibility. And nothing lasts forever.

    I know, I know
    That my world has grown old
    And nothing is forever
    I know, I know
    That my world has grown old
    But it really doesn’t matter
    If you say we’ll be together
    If you promise you’ll be with me in the end

    I was sitting in a meeting with my boss, his boss and our team. It was a video meeting.

    After the meeting my boss pulled me aside and said his boss was concerned because I appeared bored.

    I told my rocket scientist of a boss.

    “Sorry it was a really boring meeting”

    Capitalism bores me.

    What is your favorite drink?

    Having a favorite drink for all occasions is an inane notion to say the least.

    I believe the universal answer would have to be water. We pretty much need water to consume all drinks.

    But if we dress it up, and add flavoring, caffeine, or a little bit of alcohol, we have a different drink for different occasions.

    So for those reasons, I will say, on a hot summer day drinking water out of the garden hose is the most delicious thing you can drink.

    Who are your favorite people to be around?

    The natural response is family. It is not a given for many people and I don’t take if for granted.

    There are times I just want to be alone. We all need that. And I know I talked to the dogs and cats and to myself. But I’m comfortable being by myself. Being a grandparent is the coolest thing in the world.

    By the end of the day, we are tired and feeling good. So there’s nothing wrong with a little time alone.

    I sit here alone on a Friday morning, it’s a beautiful day in Berlin. It is so quiet and peaceful and I’d rather enjoy these moments.

    Last Night

    Last night, I went out with my son to meet some of his friends for a birthday party. It was myself and nine other people, half my age.

    It was fun just to watch them interact with each other. I remember when that social scene was what I lived for. There were so many language spoken at the table, including Spanish German and Portuguese, and its mattering of English.

    That’s not my perfect evening, but I certainly enjoyed it despite the fact that at:

    10;00

    All nine people at the table broke out their cigarettes (not me) because apparently you can’t smoke in a bar till 10 o’clock in Berlin.
