Un encuentro pequeño, un rescate sin importancia y una despedida silenciosa.
De esas cosas que pasan en un día normal y que, sin saber por qué, no se olvidan.

oh man, I can’t stop laughing. I’m sitting in a #café and a little boy walks in – maybe 8 or 9 years old. he orders something tiny, espresso-sized – maybe a mini hot chocolate, maybe even #coffee. doesn’t matter. and let’s not even get into whether he should be drinking that at his age.

but he ordered it. got it served in one of those tiny espresso cups… and then had to carry it – full! – across the entire #café without spilling a drop.

not an easy task when you’re 8. and it really was a big #journey for him. he walked. slowly, carefully, like on a tightrope. eyes locked on the cup, every step deliberate and precise.

it took him a full two minutes to reach a free table – with some people’s eyes glued to him and his little #journey.

he finally sat down, drank the whole thing in three seconds… and walked out.

and I nearly burst out laughing. all that effort – for what? 🙂

"... protect and defend the Constitution of the United States!"

As he finished his oath, as many expected, in total silence, the stars on the sky started to wane one after another...

The sand fleas were out in swarms and mosquitos were biting. The sounds of the water made it difficult for me to hear. Hear the voices in my head. The ones that told me to step left or right. Or watch out for a branch or sharp piece of coral.

I got in the truck and drove. Away from the coastline and beaches. Out of the city. Away from the familiar. The streetlights ended and all I had was light from the headlights of the truck. The roads wound around the hilly terrain. Over the freeway. Across the marginal. No vehicles at the gas station and the lights were a dim glow. “Keep going,” she said. I drove for awhile then asked, “Where am I going?” She said, “you will know the turn when you see it.” I kept driving until I recognized something.

I packed all the important things.
Sunglasses, 5 pair.
Notebooks, 7 empty.
Birkenstock sandals, 1 pair.
Time Machine backup hard drive and cords.
The internet modem and cords.
My case of daily supplements, half empty.
Airpods & corded headphones.
Phone charger.

I flipped the lid down over the disorganized pile of stuff and pulled the zipper all the way around. My carry on suitcase packed. The suitcase could hold more; but I wanted to travel light. And I was in a rush.

My drivers license and truck key were in hand. I took off. I didn’t have my phone, I didn’t need the GPS. I had the GPS in my head.

The evening partying ended, as usual. The ice melted and empty bottles floated in the cold water. Local favorite, Medalla. Pizza boxes stacked on the table. No slices left just crumpled napkins and pieces of crust with perfectly formed bite marks. Porch light left on. Door unlocked. “Go in” she said, “They are waiting for you.” “This is strange,” I said. “Where are they if they are waiting for me?” “They fell asleep waiting,” she said, “go inside.” One suitcase in each hand I opened the door. Looked around. Kitchen. Living room. Three rooms with shut doors. One open door.

"Someone else will do it," the first person said. Then, everyone else echoed the sentiment.

So, no one saved the world, and all the people died.

THE END.

As he saw yet another colony ship plunge into the sun, Tom didn’t understand how the head office kept repeating the same mistake over and over.

I mean, if you wanted a computer to fly your ship into orbit around a planet you should specifically say so.

“Take us to the nearest star with habitable planets” was definitely the wrong thing to ask from a literal-minded machine.

"Grandmother, why do we move our eyes when we sleep?", asked the Little Red Riding Hood.

"The better to see the phantasmagories behind our eyelids", was the Big Bad Wolf's response.
