#lifechoices — Public Fediverse posts

A crossroads is not always a crisis

Sometimes it is simply the moment when the old momentum stops being enough.

Before you move, ask yourself:

"Am I choosing the nect direction — or merely continuing the last one?"

Turn the thought into a conversation.

Eight years ago today, my wife and I left Germany to permanently live in Japan. I feel grateful that things have been working out as they did so far. Learning: Go for your dream - nobody else is going to do it for you. 🙏

The post linked below is a replica of what I had posted on Instagram at the time. Preview grid attached; please open URL for bigger images.

Things I can change without losing my conscience:
My personal entertainment choices.

Things I can't change without losing my conscience:
My morals on human rights/being anti-genocide.

Well holy crap! I have been trying to set up Nextcloud on Linux for a personal cloud for MONTHS (and failing miserably). Tonight, it finally started working!!

Now I don't know what to do! 😅

@MiaMarkTwo Well that's nice! Think we got a clothing catalogue for the missus. Hmmm.

The irony... The reality...
Without knowing balance, this will always happen.
Life story! Lesson to be learned but made me laugh... The irony!

I am in the process of cleaning out my bookshelf. It is amazing how various books, pamphlets, and other stuff act both as memorabilia, as well as markers about interest and even potential careers.

I'm a bit reminded of the fig tree of possibilities by Sylvia Plath.

As I'm throwing away things, I don't see this as careers or life paths that have withered away; I still have learnings that I took from them integrated.

Today was my last day at work as a software developer. AI is not taking away my job, but I see it take away the fun I have in writing software. I will keep it as a hobby, though.

Next up from October: A Bachelors & Masters programme at BOKU University about "Landscape Planning and Landscape Architecture".
Yep, and now to something completely different. Making the world more liveable.
A new and unwritten future awaits.

🤔 So, renting vs. buying has finally been reduced to a #GitHub #repo with pinned data? 🚀 Because nothing says "life decision" like a spreadsheet from the cloud overlords. 🤖 Who knew financial wisdom could be found between the lines of AI-generated code snippets? 😂

Ah, another riveting tale of "which country is better?"—because apparently, the nuances of life can be reduced to a casual pub quiz between taxi drivers and small town folk. 🚕🏡 The real revelation: moving from a bustling city to a sleepy village just might alter your perspective.

I suspect I'm about to over-commit myself. I'm currently in one choir and do some nature-related volunteering.

Planning on joining a second choir in the fall, but I also *really* want figure out how I want to be active in the climate crisis fight, and I was reminded today as well that I would really love to host a community-station radio show (which I haven't done since my 20s).

And yes I also have a full-time job.

So... yeah... will have to make some choices I think.

From the ad copy: "Then you hear the scream and you really wonder."

:catthinking:

I bet you wonder. You wonder about the life choices that brought you to the point of buying an electronic screaming knife, and stabbing an unsuspecting victim with it. How could it have gone so wrong?

:why:

Ah, the classic tale of the #Linux "love affair" that always ends in the arms of #Windows 💔. Our hero dreams of joining the elite league of Linux wizards 🧙‍♂️ but ends up worshipping the 'Start' button. Maybe one day, he'll figure out there's no Ctrl+Z for life choices. 🤦‍♂️

MULTIPLE REALITIES: THEORY POSITS PARALLEL SELVES DICTATE YOUR PATH

The difference between the “tired face” and “weary face” emojis is so subtle that it makes me very weary and tired to choose between the two.

"In a world driven by algorithms and digital noise, it’s easy to lose sight of what truly builds a life. This story follows Julian’s journey through the modern hustle to find that career and wealth are just background noise compared to the people we love. Ultimately, no technology can replace the warmth of family and the peace of coming home."

💻 NEW VIDEO - last week, Julia Behrman from Northwestern University delivered our #CPCCGWebinar, exploring changing norms around having #children

She discussed how having children is no longer seen as something everyone is expected to do, but more as optional and contingent shaped by circumstances
