I loved this one, Mateus. So much to digest and the philosophical excerpts from the Contardo interview were great. I don't know if you ever saw the classic movie Harold and Maude. It's about a love affair btwn an 80 yr old woman and a 20-something guy, who prior to meeting her is considering suicide. Maude has lived her life fully, an unadulterated, chaotic beauty of a life filled with highs and lows and a massive amount of experiences. When he asks her why she's done so much her answer is, "Go live life, otherwise you got nothing to talk about in the locker room." Made me laugh but true, so very true. Go live life!!
Contardo was a very interesting writer and psychoanalyst. His reflections on obligation of happiness really transformed me. I have never seen Harold and Maude, great tip for my weekend, Jeanine. Thank you a lot! I loved the idea "nothing to talk about in the locker room".
Sometimes hard times can make life a lot more interesting than just living a fully predictable life. Being a nomad probably makes having a predictable life almost impossible, right? 🙃

It's an old movie but really great. You'd love it, Mateus. Quite philosophical for a US movie too.

Yes, it is impossible, the only thing I can predict is that I will have infinity stories to tell, and that's incredible (but sometimes very tough)
For me this is the best one so far!
