I recently stumbled upon nine posts made for its Student Festival by the Computer Science department at Tsinghua University, the top CS department in China. They are all very inspiring, clever and funny.
Piszę ten post leżąc w łóżku obok mojego syna, śpi sobie spokojnie. Przed snem pograliśmy trochę na Apple TV, wcześniej poczytaliśmy książkę. W ciągu dnia rozmawialiśmy parę razy na FaceTime a na święta ruszamy w podróż zaczepiając o 3 miasta, będziemy pewnie jechali polskimi…

I am alone in a sea of darkness. I am wondering, how did I get here? How did I find my way to this place? I reach out in front of me. I can’t see my own hand, I feel nothing. Yet, I hear the world going on around me. I hear my children, my husband, all living and…
Dear Future Self,
I, currently 19 yrs of age, write this letter to you, to read at the age of 30.

Dear Hannah,
Four years ago I was a freshman at Bryn Mawr. You were a junior. You saw that I was the new girl from Hawaii, trying to survive the cold PA weather and eager to draw nearer to God. You would study with me, eat meals with me, and leave me notes of encouragement in…
As madrugadas são meio que minha zona de conforto. Gosto de pensar à noite (e como penso). Pensar, trabalhar, produzir, ou até mesmo não fazer nada: contemplar. Há uma certa calma no silêncio solitário da madrugada, é quase como se o tempo parasse ou talvez passasse mais devagar.

The poem below was written some 20 years ago. It’s still fresh for me. I offer it now in homage to Heather Nann’s post, “Right or Wrong? I Don’t Know. I Am A Work In Progress, After All”.

Thought provoking. I read it 3 times. I’m thinking that maybe we are on a changing course. You love her now. That’s it. Appreciate her, enjoy the love. If humans are ever changing, love is fluid that moves according to the wind, the moon, sometimes it runs it’s course cliche, it just runs away. Maybe your next human will be a he or someone…

From the beginning, we’re conditioned that failure is a terrible thing by associating it with negative outcomes. Schools tell us, “Fail this test, and you won’t advance into a better school”. This enforces fear of failure being a primary contributor behind not wanting to fail; instead of wanting to succeed. Not…

I’m angry, and emotional. I want to let it all out but I don’t know how. So, as always, I will write it out. Our choices are what makes us angry.

A schoolmate once proudly said to me: “My mother is perfect. She can do no wrong.”
I said: “My mother is not perfect. She makes mistakes. But I know she tries her best.”
I understand the game is about leaving on your own terms, and as long as your happy who cares.
That’s my life, and the lives of many others, in a sentence. And you’re right: inclusion can’t be divorced from empathy. Without inclusion, empathy is just lip service.
Really insightful, thanks.

Rise and be at peace with the world for it is where you reside, your only home. For even when you die the earth will be like a womb waiting for the D day when it will all be made clear to you what you have done on the earth before it embraced you in it’s arms. I never imagined death as a punishment. I always…

I think many of us can relate to what you have written above. And your words do justice to that feeling.

I don’t know, man… it was an honest mistake. And calling the top two contestants “victims” sounds a bit out of touch. It was, I’m sure, confusing and awkward and disappointing and a roller coaster of emotions, but they handled it beautifully. I doubt either of them have suffered any actual harm from this. Give them a little credit. And if they did, I…

Its really great that you have realised that love is opening heart to humans irrespective to the gender, proffession, money, status. You must have realised it after a great struggle in life, your soul must have been hurt, broken and cheated to get you this realisation. The pain has turned your soul into a human. And after this you know how to connect…

it’s amazing that reading about your relationship with your partner got me thinking about my relationship with myself. I’ve been frustrated a lot lately, what with all the failures, and probably have been needing a different look on life. it’s amazing the kind of triggers you find in everyday life. your writing is amazing. do keep at it. 🙏🏽

Good one!
Planning is important, but have clarity of mind is way more beneficial than this, maybe you should try doing both and if you life change with this it will change even more with a little of more time for you.
What if not getting what you wanted (or not getting what you want when you want it) is actually a sign that what’s in store for you is much bigger and better than you could have ever imagined?

That’s maybe because you only give yourself 5 minutes, and you think you have to think about Something. Give yourself 10 minutes to start with and see what comes up. Then over 12 weeks add a little more thinking time 3 times a week.

Wise suggestions for a newborn in this complex world. Thank you.
People interest me, especially those that people have a pre set idea of. A lot of people look at Ninjah and assume he is a mad man, with nothing more to him than what people see on a day to day basis.
Happy is the word. Who needs to be a billionaire? We all need to be happy. Keeping it to professional area, funding a company that allow you to be millionaire clearly means you have achieved a great goal. So you can also balance your energy to other areas essential: you, your family, your community.

America is the land of testing.
Here in the States you can test if a product will sell, if an art piece will create change, or if an idea will spread and the worst thing that can happen if you fail is only more testing.
As time pass by, I look out the window. Just only waiting, for the only person I want to see, my dad. My dad was the only person who took care of me. Looking at the driveway I wait, to see his little grey car but time has pass. I sigh and look at the clock ‘5:25' the clock said, he was supposed to come at 5:15.
