The Butterfly Effect



It's amazing how sometimes one small decision can have so much of an impact.

This has happened to me many times, one example would be how one day, this was long long time ago, I had just gotten out of marine corps active duty, and this was my first weekend back, I decided to go to church, the one my parents went to, I was late that morning, who knows why? but, when I walked in the church it was packed, and the usher found one seat for me, in a crowded pew, right next to a young lady...Martha, and the rest, my friends, is history.

Bed Time



I don't know what's up with these kids, they used to go to sleep at 7:30 PM, now it's almost 9:30 and they are still running around, even after we bathed them, dressed them, fed them, read to them. I don't know where these kids get all that energy from.

Any ideas? My cousin recommended this book to me. But pretty much all it says is that I should follow a routine, and we are doing just that, but the kids somehow fell out of that this week. I wonder what could have caused it. This week is no different than any other.

I am thinking about starting a new blog.

They say write what you know.

I know a thing here and there about computers and engineering, I'd like to write about it.

I like to to think and talk about politics and religion, but those things can get people in trouble. Plus, I really don't like to write about stuff I don't know much about.

I'll keep this blog alive because I really had good times writing in it. I stopped because I don't want to reveal too many things about my personal life. Plus, it's weird to always write about myself, and writing my thoughts on things I don't know much about is pretty pointless after all.

I do like self-reflection. But I rather keep it private. I don't like the whole world to know all the things that go through my head. Plus, the bloggersphere is already filled with such nonsensical, blog noise. I don't want to do that.

I know that writing a technical blog is not the most exciting thing in the world to most people, but I like it, it's what I want to do.

However, I still believe in the power or rational thought to make this world a better place.

So long. Good night.
