It's been a year

It seems just fair to write again after a year of sabbatical leave from blogging.
Much has changed in the world and also for me - the course of the overall development is generally positive.
People are more engaged in community projects, there is more information available online about everything. With more info also comes more clutter and the need to learn to navigate and to rise above everyday "noise".

This is maybe also my very own, personal journey. How can I filter out what really matters? How can I make sense of all the things heard / said / seen? How can I keep an independent mind when it's so tempting to let go and be carried by a random wave of trend, external influences or majority opinions?

I am not sure if I will be able to communicate clearly enough about the progress of my journey, but I will try.

Most importantly, I would like to point to sources that can help: World Wide Web (namely sources such as coursera.org or the Happiness Project. Or TED. And many others).

Also, there are two very distinct non-virtual places where parts of the answers are hidden: inside of each and every one of us. And inside of those individuals that makes us feel empowered. Maybe it's worth setting aside time to talk to ourselves and to our empowering fellow citizens to understand what we are truly looking for and what gives us a feeling of resilience and meaningfulness.

Next time around, I will discuss 2 distinct ways of figuring things out: (1) by trying not to run towards answers and by (2) by trying to get many new impulses to see which one is my trigger.
