Here comes the new year

here comes the new year

he dances in the discotheque
she holds his hands
he presents her a bouquet
she kisses him in response
both laugh
both cry
both play a fiddle with each other
and started dancing again
here comes the new year

here comes the new year
sitting on the mattress
bottle in one hand
and a cigarette in the other,
somber and contemplative,
not knowing the pomp and the glitter outside
appreciating the earth's rotation
thinking why the word abbreviation is so long
reluctant to free his hands to take up the TV remote
sitting idle
totally puzzled
here comes the new year

here comes the new year
he brings her the past
she rejoices it
he sets her with emotions
she binds by it
he calls her fool
she loves it
they take a deep breathe
and say life is not changing
here comes the new year

here comes the new year
switched on TV
not knowing that night not meant for him
full of love songs
and parties
left the bottle that quench no thirst
there was this movie channel
chose to forget time
and to believe in one to tango
and the movie was
"Life is Beautiful"
here comes the new year

  The Balance Between Privacy and Convenience: A Perspective on Google's Tracking Practices Google often finds itself at the center of heated debates regarding user privacy.

Understanding the Concerns The primary concern surrounding Google's tracking practices revolves around privacy. Critics argue that the extensive data collection infringes on user privacy, creating detailed profiles of individuals' online behaviors.

  Power of enablement In the pursuit of peak performance, organizations often focus on setting ambitious goals and demanding results. While these are undoubtedly essential, they represent only one side of the productivity equation. The other, equally important, side is enablement – creating an environment where individuals have the tools, resources, knowledge, and support they need to excel. The foundation of enablement lies in understanding the power of "ease-of-doing." By simplifying processes, eliminating unnecessary barriers, and providing intuitive tools, we remove friction and empower individuals to focus on their core tasks. This not only accelerates their work but also enhances their job satisfaction and engagement. Equipping individuals with the necessary resources goes hand-in-hand with ease-of-doing. Access to relevant information, data, technology, and expertise is crucial for effective decision-making and problem-solving. When individuals have the right tools at ...

The Case for Synthetic: Embracing Human Ingenuity for a Better World

  The Case for Synthetic: Embracing Human Ingenuity for a Better World In a world often romanticized by the allure of the "natural," I stand firmly on the side of the synthetic. This is not a rejection of nature, but rather a celebration of human ingenuity and its potential to elevate our existence beyond the limitations of the natural world. My conviction stems from a deep belief in the power of evidence-based progress. While nature offers a foundation, it's often riddled with imperfections and limitations. Synthetic creations, born from meticulous research, experimentation, and refinement, hold the key to surpassing these constraints. Consider the realm of medicine. Natural remedies, while sometimes effective, are often inconsistent in their potency and safety. Synthetic pharmaceuticals, meticulously formulated and rigorously tested, have revolutionized healthcare, providing targeted treatments for a myriad of ailments, extending lifespans, and improving quality of life...
