I remember when I was young and barely had knowledge of life, I mean those practices and conditions that occur as we grow up, that I imagined being a different person, since I grew up in conditions where my family sometimes found it difficult to give me my most simple and banal requests, I saw doctors being very respected people, with luxuries and great advantages, I saw the most intelligent and capable people having those things I dreamed of and much more, things that I knew, with my abilities and my intelligence I could have when I grew up. But time is the biggest surprise of all, because in that long road through time, where years and years passed, where I suffered, cried and laughed, I realized that when I reached that stage of the road, everything had already changed, doctors were now clumsy and corrupt beings in their own hospitals, with nothing but their impotence, because many of them saw, like me, that being a doctor was a great thing, and time disappointed them. As I was disappointed when I arrived at the place, after so many years, where I had dreamed of being, for being the most capable and the most virtuous, that there was nothing left, nothing left to pick up. This is how time reconfigures our lives, makes us look back and understand that we have wasted time doing things without sense, because of prediction errors. That is the most important skill of these times, to predict the future in order to arrive at a desired moment with the right tools, the right capabilities and the right rewards. Not like me, who arrived when the party was over and I only have to pick up the garbage or go to the street, suffering the impotence of this move that time made me, slowly, to finish with me and with the majority who have a watch.
