Impressions around IST

Alameda, July 2007

Decisions, decisions

Avenida Viriato, Tortosendo, July 2007
A while ago I said something about red and green, two important colors
in our life, and how knowing when to go and when to pause is one of
the biggest tricks to life.
What to do when the colors are not green and red but orange and red ?
from all the sides there is resistance, there is not a good moment or
a bad one... Actually, it simplifies the matter... It is no longer a
matter of waiting for a good moment or not, recognizing the good
moment and going for it precisely during that good moment... It´s only
a matter of deciding wether or not you want to cross the street,
wether you want to arrive at the other side or not... If there is no
promise that the light will turn green, then there is not difference
between crossing now or later. If you are sure that you want to cross,
cross now...
go go go !
and whatever you do, if you start crossing, go all the way, because I
can assure you, if you are in the middle of the street, and turn back,
you will see the same red and orange light telling you not to go
back...

I have some crossing to do myself, but first some deciding...
