Suffering turns into foil in the milk carton.1
Gold or Emperor?
Hi, I’m Leo. I work as a software engineer and I’m trying to fight being burned out by giving myself room to be creative. Web dev has me disillusioned and I’m still thinking whether to transition back into embedded or try to get a foothold in systems programming.
In the meantime, I want to express my thoughts and just let it out, I want to have the energy to create awesome things and I want to have the awesome ideas that lead to awesome things. Currently stuck in a negative feedback loop both in life and work, if someone is interested in just reaching out and talk to me about whatever they want, shoot me an email at blog [at] lho [dot] io.
Feel free to go to the Blog or check out my random Thoughts.
- This is a proverb that I came up with in a dream and am still trying to identify the exact meaning of, but I have grown to like it. It is unclear whether suffering turns into foil once it is put inside a milk carton or whether suffering generally turns into the specific aluminium foil that covers the inside of the milk carton.
This particular proverb was dreamt in German: “Leid wird zu Folie in der Milchtüte”.
