Starine

Nešto sam danas razmišljao o nastanku i poreklu reči karbinje. Mnogo bolje zvuči nego svinjokolj. Kada budem imao malo vremena proučiću ovu temu.

Druga stvar - "Sveti Mrata, sneg za vrata" - poslovica/pesmica - davno beše osnovna škola pa sam zaboravio koji je naziv ove forme.

Treća stvar, kaže tata - "Prava zima (u Vojvodini, Staparu), počinje od 21.11 do 4.12." To je njegovo iskustvo.

Odmaralište na Rabu

Izgleda da sam konačno pronašao gde sam sa osnovnom školom išao na Rab. Nisam baš 100% siguran da je to to, ali liči. Takodje ne mogu da se setim da li se zvalo Somborsko odmaralište, ili Beogradsko. Ima na google mapama streat view, i ako je to to, deluje prilično zapušteno. Evo i slike pa koga interesuje da gleda. Ako neko prepozna da je to to, neka odjavi ovde kao komentar.

Konačno nešto afirmativno o istini

"In the meantime, consider that the person without answers — the one who says, “I don’t know!” — might be the most responsible, respectable person at the meeting table." - ajd recimo da ja znam da kazem istinu čak i kada mi njena tačnost direktno šteti.

Kod kovača/At blacksmith

Nekoliko slika iz kovačke radnje u Staparu, slikano sa dopuštenjem kovača Marinka.
Several picture from blacksmith, Stapar, Serbia. Pictures made with permission of blacksmith Marinko, seen in pictures. Blacksmith workshop is about 45 years old. Currently, some improvements have been made - new air blower, instead of huge old one (do not English word for that), and new mechanically powered hammer.
Here are the pictures:

Zaključci koje treba izvući kada dodje do otpuštanja sa posla

I pogotovo ovaj deo je meni interesantan:

"Or perhaps the problem was not so much one of lack of skills as of fit. If you found yourself frustrated by the organization's constant demands for quick, one-off solutions unlikely to add value over the long term, you may be a "craftsman" who'll do better in a slower-paced company where management values well-designed and thoroughly integrated programs. Or if you found that constantly communicating and vetting your ideas in a large, bureaucratic organization was tedious, perhaps you should consider a smaller, more entrepreneurial company."

Ja sam definitivno čovek koji krpljenja ne podnosi, i više volim da dugoročno i za stalno rešim problem, umesto da konstantno gasim "požare".

Egzistencijalna depresija

Mislim da sam ovaj pojam pročitao kod Viktora Frankla - egzistencijalna depresija.

Evo članka na tu temu

I jedna pesma:

"Hold fast to dreams,
For if dreams die,
Life is a broken-winged bird
That cannot fly.

Hold fast to dreams.
For if dreams go,
Life is a barren field
Covered with snow."

Imaju 100 godina a još uvek rade

Ne mogu baš tačno da razumem zašto, ali ovi ljudi su me baš dirnuli:
