Happily Disturbed

I’ve always tried to read things that disturb me. I’m not talking about news and tragedies now. I am referring rather to the books that have made me what I am now, books that define my thinking and logos. Admittedly, my intellectual tastes and preferences have recently been refined and have been rigorously directed towardsContinue reading “Happily Disturbed”

Dieu n’est pas mort

S-a nimerit ca pe noptiera mea să se găsească exact doua cărți iar când le-am observat mi-am dat seama că sunt cu adevărat doua piese de căpătâi pentru mine, pentru ceea ce mă definește. Prima carte este Biblia lângă care se află “Genome Editing and Engineering, From TALENs, ZFNs, and CRISPRs to Molecular Surgery.” PeContinue reading “Dieu n’est pas mort”

Molia

Era o molie prinsă în plasticul vechi ce învelea lumina obosită a unui vagon. Era clar că nu avea nicio scăpare. Se zbătea fără a reuși să scape de lumina aia orbitoare și care acum era caldă, era fierbinte și îi ardea aripile. Dar de ce se zbătea acum? Nu tocmai asta a căutat atâtaContinue reading “Molia”

Escapadele acestea emoționale sunt o crimă a introspecției de care sunt capabil în multe momente din viața mea. Mă refer maiContinue reading “Esența schimbării”

Ideas of Nature: Technology and Change in the United States since 1900

    “‘Nature’ is not to be understood as that which is just present-at-hand, nor as the power of Nature. The wood is a forest of timber, the mountain a quarry of rock; the river is water-power, the wind is wind ‘in the sails’. As the ‘environment’ is discovered, the ‘Nature’ thus discovered is encountered too”(MartinContinue reading “Ideas of Nature: Technology and Change in the United States since 1900”

sense of security

Where do I come from? Why am I so haunted by this idea that I come from something natural. Something ancestral. Ultimately, don’t we all come from one common natural aspect? Then why do I feel like only my origin is the one that would nurture my existence entirely? Why is that place, maybe evenContinue reading “sense of security”

Privilege

I grew up thinking I was unprivileged. I grew up in a small Eastern European country where bringing up a child is still a struggle. A struggle for providing proper education, clothes, comfort, and ultimately for putting food on the table. I grew up thinking I was unprivileged. Not a day in my life haveContinue reading “Privilege”
