Unexplained connection - little book of humanism

I started a new job last week... Went to a new city, well more like a town. I picked up this book there and it has wonderful words to live by. 

On my way back from there I had a strangest sensation that I was leaving something behind. All my life I have had these feelings that moment, this person, this place is of significance to me. And as I life unfolds things reveal themselves. I don't know yet if it is the place or the people or something else that will make difference but I know something will. 

For now what I do know is that the book I picked up from the book shop there is worth a read and let's wait for rest to follow. 

 weather you can keep on loving all different versions of each other

When all of life's adventures are done and you come to a pause... Hope you come looking for me at that bend again. 

 When the search of destination leads to the path itself and you realise that the destination is completely different from what you imagined

Notes - Lean Architecture

Great design is finding just the right solution that let's you have your cake and eat it too, but competent design is realising when the business just won't allow such magic, owning up to that realisation, and making hard decisions based on the consequences of that realisation.

This is probably the most difficult thing to do if you are a perfectionist and it takes a toll to continuously keep doing this. Together with this should also go a warning that know what is your compromise limit.

Notes - Lean Architecture
