Berkeley, Tuesday, June 3, 2025 2:45 AM I am nervious, not only for a voice message I pushed myself to sent today when I wrapped up some work at campus. Delaying replies and correspondance also add to the task to do, such as sleep well, wake up early, organize the place, and so on, file […]
Flowers and Crops
Berkeley, Monday, June 2, 2025 4:31 PM Flowers and crops only come up, for most of the cases, on a specific time of the year, and during a short period of time. Let’s say Spring, although, of course no many crops come in the spring, but most of the flowers yes. The point is that […]
Gratitude and Graciousness
Berkeley, Sunday, June 1, 2025 12:32 AM Everyday one needs to pray and to reflect, read write, have a quiet moment, to receive all the energy that is available. But also one needs to push hard to get the work done. Hopefully, then one is awake to graciously accept one comes. Also, fully aware to […]
Discipline
Berkeley, Sunday, June 1, 2025 12:27 Am I bought a meal plan at I-House. Probably convenient. But the extra time I have for not cooking on a daily basis, does not mean I can use on for instance watching the Giro of Italia. I do need to keep my fight against screens, consuming, videos, etc. […]
Shyness
Berkeley, Saturday, May 31, 2025 1:30 AM I did something for a group I was collaborating with. I committed to send a document. I did. But I sent it to one person. I should have sent it to everyone. I probably evaluate the reason that was not show off. I think that is good. But […]
Connections
Berkeley, Saturday May 31, 2025 1:25 am Things are a bit all over the place. That is of course a terrible thing. I need to find a way to get done my grading, submit an exam I need to take by mid-week next week, apply for jobs, and finish my own writing. Challenges and applications […]
Think
Berkeley, Friday, May 30, 2025 5:50 Pm I still need to turn in one or two applications today, grade 7 or 8 papers. The big question is why do I choose to delay things at times. I do admire athletes. Of course, I sometimes think on the training life from Richard Carapaz for instance, and […]
Promises Kept
Berkeley, Tuesday, May 27, 2025 Why did I missed a deadline last Wednesday. After missing it things become tougher. It is easy to find excuses, but I will remain. I set myself some promises to fix things now. I will write those on my own time.
Afraid
Berkeley, Monday, May 26, 2025 10:51 Pm The lack of confidence in a few aspects is of course embarrassing and worrisome. Trust is more than human. But it builds up with discipline, moderation, focus.
Pride and vanity
Berkeley, Sunday, May 25, 2025 11:38 PM One of the worst situations one can encounter is believing that one should be acknowledged and non acknowledging others. Envy might come from pride and vanity. OK to make errors, and to keep those in the heart and make corrections. One solution I believe is to remind oneself […]
