Our life happens while we are alive. Every moment, our actions and decisions reflect our worldview and ripple through society in many ways, shapes and forms, and with, different degrees of influence and impact. If causes preceed effects or not, it's a whole different enquiry, but,the point is, we all, truly and factually matter and we are constantly expressing it. It's unavoidable.

This constant interaction with anything other than ourselves, inevitably leads to challenges, puzzles, mysteries, suffering, pleasure and a trillion of other possibilities that manifest the magic of being alive. The inevitable unknown and unexpected, pose daily riddles from which we cannot ever escape. We age, we love, we work, we travel... we argue. At some point, we will all face events that reveal an unconfortable, but important realization: Our worldview is just one in an ocean of worldviews and our ego is the only reason we tend to favor our's more than others. It happens to us all.

What we do is pretty much informed by our worldview, yet, we need to be aware that knowing thyself is not a goal per se, but an ongoing, stumbling process. Below, some ideas that help me contextualize my experience from different angles.

• At some point, nothing existed.
• The world is beautiful but not always.
• Humans are animals hanging on a branch of the tree of life.
• Love is the universal spice of interaction. 
• Freedom is not negotiable and Slavery is not optional.
• Change is a feature of time.
• Isms are self-defeating.
• All dogma opposes reality even if some lessons have value.
• We are the Other of the Other.
• We are the center of our world but not the center of the world.
• Make someone smile today.
• Violence and war reflect ignorance.
• Language can make anything plausible.
• Those who love you, will always find you.
• Words are Pictures.
• Believing is seeing. God(s) are optional.
• Plastic is a threat to life. Refuse it abundantly.
• Humans remain a fascinating expression of matter.
• A.I. does not exist and, probably, never will.
• Refuse (microsoft, google, amazon, meta, x, tik-tok, uber)
• The world is not supposed to be perfect.
• Imagination is the key to freedom.

Big Tech is basically, advertising companies that dwell in the slave (unpaid) trading business by collecting absurd amounts of valueable information from their users, which then, they use to exploit those same users. It's a cheat show. As i see it, these companies are already in the past, but fortunately, they do not hold the keys to the technology. Search for: Enshitifcation, Slop.

From email, to chat or video editing, there are viable and professional alternatives that allow users to take hold of their privacy and information without being turned into guinea-cash-cows. The internet can be different. Search for: Fediverse, Free Open Source Software.

Note: i do use mainly apple (ai and siri disabled) and ocasionally microsoft but i am starting to get my way around linux. It takes effort but it certainly is enriching. The grass is greener outside the box :)
Below, some alternatives to get you started.
