WOG, that year I thought hard

In 2020 during the height of the COVID pandemic I had quite a bit of time to think. I decided to examine my perspective and my life; to make a first attempt at bringing together my ideas and views about what matters to me into a more coherent and thoughtful perspective.

The results is still (and probably) forever in draft form and does not reflect my current views, as I kept evolving and thinking since I wrote it. Nevertheless, you might find it interesting ( click here to download).
