The price of the color

During the night the eyes are dilated in order to try to see the objects around. All the things are in gray scale from light gray to black. There are no colors or at least, it seems to be like that.

In the next day, the rays from the sun allow us to see the colors. The balance between the light absorption and reflection of the objects let them to have a color. The color depends of the place of the world and also of the season. Nevertheless, paint a color is another story.

Los Panchos and harmony

Some years ago I heard the song named 'You’ve gone' from Los Panchos.

Late is never

The humanity's history is full with children and young prodigy. Mozart began to compose music from 5 years age. Galois inherited the humanity a world of new numbers (the complex numbers) little before his death at 20 years. Avicenna graduated from medical doctor at 18. Steven Spielberg began its career at 23 years old and Bill Gates was the richest man from the world at his 37 years old. They were some examples. 

It is common that several people could be discouraged when they turn to see around them and compare themselves with other people who reached their goals younger than them.

Then, most of the people think that some goal is not for them, they say ‘it is no longer for my age’. 

Other people, simply, do not give up.

A polyhedron in the time

The world could not be more than a pale reflection of the human being idea in searching of perfect spheres. The world is maybe only a set of irregular polyhedra whose faces are strange and changing.

Internet is a parallel world growing without an order. Sometimes some voices appear, sometimes other voices become silent like candles in a mirror. Those candles from renaissance lamps lightning Italian paintings.

A polyhedron is a geometric solid of regular faces. There are five perfect solids named platonic. They are the tetrahedron formed by 4 equilateral triangles; the octahedron formed by 8 equilateral triangles; the icosahedron formed by 20 equilateral triangles; the dodecahedron formed by 12 pentagons; and the hexahedron (cube) formed by 6 squares.

Let us see then, up to where and until when this polyhedron rolls before having its edges disappeared and after losing their faces. Before becoming a sphere… to who somebody in the road tells it that its destination was rolling forever.
