Time machine

I would like to travel two years back in time and talk to myself..

Don't feel guilty for always having the energy to try again and sometimes choosing to give up.

There's nothing for you here, other than the opportunity to get to know yourself better, but that's a lot.

The same will happen again and again until you learn that lesson.

Everything you think you have, will vanish into thin air very soon, because nothing is real but yourself.

So don't take it too seriously, you don't need to suffer that much.

You can chill, this is not how love feels like, you haven't lived that yet.

You will soon.

...

Oh! And eat lots of crumpets, they don't have any in Spain. 

Carl Zeiss

Disparé esta foto con un viejo Carl Zeiss de los años 60. La misma lente que mi padre compró cuando era más joven que yo.

Esta lente ha visto muchas cosas, y yo también. Hoy nos miramos mutuamente.

No es compatible con la app de mi móvil, claro. Qué tragedia. Pero es compatible con mi nostalgia crónica.

Cuando la miro veo personas, paisajes, miles de imágenes, a lo largo de décadas, todas ellas encogiéndose una tras otra para atravesar ese pequeño agujero que separa la realidad del recuerdo.

Mi propia imagen hoy haciendo lo mismo. Mi padre, mi madre, mi hermana, mi hermano y yo, todos lejos y todos tan cerca durante una centésima de segundo.

Leap of faith

I'm not great at making decisions, but I'm pretty good at leaps of faith.
