+This is a set of thoughts on how I am feeling inside and an attempt to let go /
+acknowledge some of these thoughts.
+
+From the day I joined a company based on Microsoft, my technological values
+grew and became rock solid. But I'm feeling sort of a whirlwind deep inside the
+social, emotional and psychological values as well.
+
+I see my country falling apart because of all the speculation on oil fuel. I
+see a blind society that doesn't want to evolve and reacts harshly over
+technological evolution and over change. I see the government spending a lot, I
+see the people rioting for everything, I see heavy taxes, I see professional
+disappointment and I see myself in a reckless anxiety, fearing for my
+professional success and my happiness. <span style="text-decoration: line-through;">
+I don't want to live in Portugal because I strongly feel I wouldn't be happy
+here. I want a place where I can live without such feelings of fear, no
+reliability and lack of vision.</span>
+
+I need a place to express my joy for life, work, friends, love and most of all,
+freedom. I need a place where I can grow as a designer and as a developer. I
+need scones. I need my own home, my own salary.
+
+I am changing inside. I am becoming a whole different person; a person who
+needs to be independent and have his own story to tell. I am feeling a
+different energy. After all, I'm becoming an adult at full speed and I'm having
+a different kind of needs from the ones I had when a teenager. Yet, my
+strongest desire is to be free and tremendously happy and make other people
+feel free and happy as well.
+
+I feel better already :)
