Doctor Who and other deep things.

I am not a sage and my life experiences are fairly limited, but if there is anything I've learned it is to always keep moving forward. It's too easy to press the pause button on life and watch the world pass you by. Don't do that. Every tick of your clock, every minute and every second of your day is what your life is made of. Whenever you face a problem, know that it is not as big as it seems. We are part of a greater world and a greater universe. If that's not humbling, I don't know what is.

Okay. So how did I suddenly become so deep? Doctor Who.
My friends have been asking me to watch it for a while now, but only recently have I started watching it seriously. I have only just started series 5, but that show is already a drug to me. I love it! I love all the weird aliens and and planets. It makes me appreciate life a little bit more. And for some reason, I know that whatever happens, I will get through it. Doctor Who is not just a TV show. It's an experience. It makes you laugh and cry and most importantly, it always leaves you craving for more. It is now my little escape from reality. I am a happy person right now.

  1. Good morning, how are you?

    My name is Emilio, I am a Spanish boy and I live in a town near to Madrid. I am a very interested person in knowing things so different as the culture, the way of life of the inhabitants of our planet, the fauna, the flora, and the landscapes of all the countries of the world etc. in summary, I am a person that enjoys traveling, learning and respecting people's diversity from all over the world.

    I would love to travel and meet in person all the aspects above mentioned, but unfortunately as this is very expensive and my purchasing power is quite small, so I devised a way to travel with the imagination in every corner of our planet. A few years ago I started a collection of used stamps because through them, you can see pictures about fauna, flora, monuments, landscapes etc. from all the countries. As every day is more and more difficult to get stamps, some years ago I started a new collection in order to get traditional letters addressed to me in which my goal was to get at least 1 letter from each country in the world. This modest goal is feasible to reach in the most part of countries, but unfortunately, it is impossible to achieve in other various territories for several reasons, either because they are very small countries with very few population, either because they are countries at war, either because they are countries with extreme poverty or because for whatever reason the postal system is not functioning properly.

    For all this, I would ask you one small favor:
    Would you be so kind as to send me a letter by traditional mail from Maldives? I understand perfectly that you think that your blog is not the appropriate place to ask this, and even, is very probably that you ignore my letter, but I would call your attention to the difficulty involved in getting a letter from that country, and also I don’t know anyone neither where to write in Maldives in order to increase my collection. a letter for me is like a little souvenir, like if I have had visited that territory with my imagination and at same time, the arrival of the letters from a country is a sign of peace and normality and an original way to promote a country in the world. My postal address is the following one:

    Emilio Fernandez Esteban
    Avenida Juan de la Cierva, 44
    28902 Getafe (Madrid)
    Spain

    If you wish, you can visit my blog www.cartasenmibuzon.blogspot.com where you can see the pictures of all the letters that I have received from whole World.

    Finally, I would like to thank the attention given to this letter, and whether you can help me or not, I send my best wishes for peace, health and happiness for you, your family and all your dear beings.

    Yours Sincerely

    Emilio Fernandez

    1. Hello. I am doing fine
      I would love to send you a letter from the Maldives. Since today is a Friday (Friday and Saturday are the official weekends in the Maldives) the post office is closed. However, I will send you a letter as soon the post office opens on Sunday.
      I just visited your blog and I think your collection is very impressive. I would be honored to contribute to your collection. Thank you so much for contacting me about it. :).
