No title

Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.

In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.

Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds and shall find me unafraid.

It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul.

William Ernest Henley

Alpedrete. Reflejo. Canteras.

No quería poner ninguna foto porque no estoy de acuerdo en eso de que una imagen vale más que mil palabras, pero el otro día que salí con la bici me encontré ante este paisaje y aprovechando las miniclases que Narci, mi amigo fotógrafo, me dio hace no mucho, toqueteé un poco los mandos de mi modesta cámara y conseguí esta bonita foto.
Reflejo en las canteras, cerca de Alpedrete
Podría describirla con sólo unas cuantas palabras, pero no quiero. Prefiero preservarla inmaculada de verbo.

"This is a waste of life. [...] the entire educational system in the modern day is nothing more than a cookie cutter processing plant that prepares humans for mostly predefined occupational roles. This element of human life has become so traditionally ingrained, that many falsely consider the nature of ‘having a job’ some form of human instinct. Even parents will ask their kids “What do you want to be when you grow up?” as though there was only one thing. This is disturbing and a violation of human potential." - The Zeitgeist Movement
