“Don’t let us forget that the causes of human actions are usually immeasurably more complex and varied than our subsequent explanations of them.”

Fyodor Dostoyevsky. The Idiot.

Based on the premise that no one in their right mind would dare to contradict Dostoyevsky when he affirms the above, the statement becomes even more accurate when we talk about Second Life. I think the name “Second Life” holds the explanation.

In any case, our lives are always a combination of reasons, circumstances and reactions. We are who we are based on what surrounds us. And what surrounds us in SL is always so unclear!

And now, while contemplating the calm sea from the shore, I can’t stop thinking about all the reasons that have brought me here. About everything I missed and all the dreams to achieve. And understanding the master Dostoyevsky, I will not make the mistake of justifying my actions. I won’t. No. Never again.

I will pursue my dreams with determination. Without rushing or despairing, but also without resting. Life is a path without possible shortcuts. And while everything comes, I will continue writing about what I feel.
