Interesting quotes, anonymous source ...
"If you change lines the one you just left will start to move faster than the one you are in now. Switching back screws up both lines and makes everybody angry."
"Insurance covers everything except what happens."
Sara reminded me that I forgot to write down my New Year's faal, so here goes
... sometimes things don't work out in our favor as fast as we would hope for them to, and we think life is not as we wanted it to be, sometimes we are very wrong ... wrong doesn't exist in life, so it can't "turn out wrong" it can just turn out in a way we didn't expect it to ... no wonder he kept saying to me that I shouldn't settle, he kept saying: "Don't settle, you deserve much better." I am so happy he did.
"... it may be that the gulfs will wash us down:
it may be we shall touch the Happy Isles,
and see the great Achilles, whom we knew.

moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are;
One equal temper of heroic hearts,
made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
to strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield."
Ulysses, Lord Tennyson

Suddenly, she turned and asked someone how she could get to Coquitlam center. The lady answered politely: “You should take the 143 from here.” Her eyes lit and she cried with joy: “Thank you for sorting my life out, you are my best friend.”
It left me thinking how simple life can be, and that may be she knew it much better than I do ….

P.S. Interestingly, today the people in our lab told me that I should laugh more often while I’m in the lab since it becomes sort of epidemic! One more reason to be happy!
I spent most of Saturday cleaning the house and preparing for the Iranian New Year. I kept thinking of how I had done it last year and the year before, to see if anything had changed.

" ... somewhere, I am sure, Ohm's law still applies, but I'm no longer confident about just where. As the size of the circuits shrinks the life of the electron becomes complex and fuzzy ....
