"I Thought of You"

-
I thought of you and how you love this beauty,
And walking up the long beach all alone
I heard the waves breaking in measured thunder
As you and I once heard their monotone.

Around me were the echoing dunes, beyond me
The cold and sparkling silver of the sea --
We two will pass through death and ages lengthen
Before you hear that sound again with me.

One of my favourite musicians and performers! Growing up in the 1980s meant navigating the explosive changes in technology, culture, and social, political, and environmental issues that have occurred in the last 25 years.  It is absolutely crazy; if a person was born in the 80s, time travelling to this person into the 50s would make more sense than suddenly appearing post-2020. It will look to him like an alien world. This music is associated with my memory of growing up, during my teenage years, university and first years of professional experiences and living life. It is associated with too many good memories and too many wonderful people. Hearing it makes me happy!!

The movie explains why the separation between Pakistan and India has happened. Naturally, the movie didn't go into detail and entailed a lot. However, it gave me an idea about the separation, the conflict, and the ongoing dispute. I wanted to learn more, so I started a journey of research with Gemini   and ended up with a well-established report that explains the root cause of the conflict (without going deeply into the historic events), the military capabilities of both countries, the risk of actual nuclear exchange, and recommendations to prevent the catastrophic outcomes that could materialize in case further escalation takes place. I enjoyed reading it, and here I'm sharing it publicly: Executive Summary The recent escalation of tensions between Pakistan and India in April-May 2025, triggered by a d...

while reading the Book of Jonathan Schell, the Seventh Decade, the New Shape of Nuclear Danger, numerous cross cutting observations, in relation to General Wesley Clark, were made. the below is a small sample of these observations: "This new ambition was crystallized in a document that won brief notoriety and then, when Bush Sr. lost his bid for a second term, was forgotten. Its importance for the present is that it outlined a scheme for global dominance a decade before September 11, 2011. its sponsor was Cheney and its draftsman was Zalmay Khalilzad, who would become ambassador to Afghanistan in 2003 and of Iraq in 2005. The draft stated, "the number one objective of U.S.'s post-cold war political and military strategy should be preventing the emergence of a rival superpower. Our first objective is to prevent the re-emergence of a new rival." even strong regional powers should be suppressed, especially in areas "whose resources would, under consolida...
