Why today is the day

Here are some reasons that I am starting today
  • Today is the May-the-forth-be-with-you day. Though not a big fan of Starwars, I am feeling the force.
  • I have been a non-ideal parent for multiple reasons
    • Coming home late every day and not spending enough time with the girls
    • Giving them the impression that stupid things at work are more important than them
    • Not providing a good example to them - believe in something and go do it
    • Giving them the impression that work sucks and one just has to deal with it
  • The sooner I can start, the sooner I can help, even in the smallest ways.
  • David Goldburg died at 47 this weekend. Actually he is not different from other strangers that die everyday prematurely. It's just that he is famous and seems to have it all. It reminds me that any of us can go at any moment.
  • Some of the best minds today are working to brining pizzas to their apartments with a button or making coffee from their bed with their phones. My inner luddite screams that there has to be something better, more meaningful, and more worthy of a fight than that.
