Random Thoughts

I love mornings like this morning. You can hear the rain falling like a thousand tiny water falls on the tin roof. The house is quiet because most houses are at 5am. And I have time to reflect and think and scheme a little. As I do that my mind is drawn to a couple of quotes I read recently that are quite deep but v cool.

"The best way to predict the future is to invent it" – Alan Kay

"The kind of thinking that will solve the worlds problems will be different to the kind of thinking that created them" – Albert Einstein.

YOUR FUTURE

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbour. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.

Mark Twain
