"Compositor de destinos
Tambor de todos os rítmos
Tempo tempo tempo tempo
Entro num acordo contigo
Tempo tempo tempo tempo..." ~~ Caetano Veloso
Some people need to save money, some need to save time, others need to save space. Most likely you need to save all of them, but your priorities at each time should mandate what you save first or the most.
But, as it happens, not always we have good judgment on a split of a second to make the wisest decision.
Sometimes we don't know or we can;t say what is really important and we thrive to save what doesn't matter that much in hindsight.
Other times we save so much of something that it doesn't matter anymore.
She liked playing solitaire games on the computer. She started with klondike, like everyone. For awhile she tried her speed on minesweeper, but when she reached her limit on the best score on easy, intermediate and expert, she stopped playing it regularly. She went back to the cards games. She learned about other types of solitaire games: freecel, cruel, tri-peak and she ended up on spider solitaire. She would make up theories about it. She researched on how to calculate her odds of winning, the best way to score the game, what part of her brain was being exercised while she was playing it. She would try to improve her statistics, but 17% win seems to be her limit. She was at a point on her life where time seemed to be the only thing that she had left to trade for anything else.
