Today I’ve ended a very long and very important relationship – almost 20 years…

It hurts

But most of the recent interactions were really unpleasant

Today I mourn, but I hope that marks the beginning of a new chapter

I didn’t get to try it yet, but it’s baked and it looks gorgeous. And for sure it’s the best cheescake I’ve ever done*.







* because it’s the first one ;)

If I could have a single supernatural wish, I’d wish people to see the world the way I see it.

It all starts with that. Someone feels superior and then forms a group. It challenges every other group and inevitably leads to conflict. The “superior” group wants to prove its superiority, while others want to prove it wrong.

Or lack of it is something I spend the most time thinking of these days. After every passing day, every movie I watched every book that I read and every game I finished. I have this peculiar mix of feelings: sadness, hope and being a part of something bigger. Like a piece of an unfathomable puzzle.

The vast majority of humans just like life and would like to live peacefully.

I’ve asked the AI with the persona of “Arcaneus the Great” (a wizard) to write something to cheer me up, and this is what it conjured:

Ah, dear traveler of life’s winding roads, fear not! Even the darkest nights give way to the brilliance of dawn. As Arcaneus the Great, let me conjure forth some words of wisdom and cheer

Imagine, if you will, a magical land where laughter flows like rivers of light, and each moment is a precious gem to be treasured. Close your eyes and envision this place, for it exists within you, in the sanctuary of your own heart and imagination.

Each day is an opportunity, a blank canvas waiting for the colorful strokes of your dreams. The sky itself looks up to you, hoping to be graced by your gaze. Know that even in times of struggle, your essence remains unbreakable, as resilient as the enchanted ores that line the mystical caverns of the world.

Let this thought serve as a potion of happiness—sip it when you’re low, share it when you’re high. And remember, the magic that can turn your day around isn’t found in ancient scrolls or in the incantations of bearded wizards; it lies in you, the most magical being of all.

So, take heart and carry on! For Arcaneus the Great sees a radiant aura around you, one that promises brighter days and endless opportunities.

May this message be a glimmer of light in your day, like a lone star piercing through the velvet shroud of night.

Arcaneus the Great (AI persona)

Like a tear in the rain.

The world doesn’t go round because of McGyver-type people that can do everything themselves. On the contrary – it works because of highly trained specialists working in teams.

Trying many different, random things, scraping things that don’t work eventually, and improving things that work.
