This blog will remain paused for some years, unless something highly unforeseen and relevant happens in my personal life, or in the world in general. Extraordinary does not imply unforeseen.
The purpose of the recess consists in allowing time to—
- Widen my own horizons. The challenges of the 21st century acutely (or critically) demand such action.
- Focus on fulfilling basic life goals such as finding a proper wife and raising a family with her. With a moderately successful life, in a minimally acceptable and functional country, I would accomplished these aforementioned goals about 15 or 10 years ago. Took me many years to realize (or understand) that I actually do not belong to the society where I grew up. Accordingly, right now I find of little personal interest to improve the world.
At the current rate of events —which I find still unsatisfactory—, assuming moderate success, I estimate that it will take about 10 years for me to see my own children growing healthy. Then I will operate in a completely new life stage.
Hence, I invite all parents to improve the world where your children live. And, at all times, remember that someone else's children result not my children.
