Overview
About Me
Hi there, I´m Fabio a simple guy trying to rediscover some meaning to my life...
I´m new on this kind of “presentation”, but I would like to share some light on myself and my thoughts. It might be relevant to you, or meaningless, it might frighten you and keep you alway or it might invite you to known me better, you might identify yourself with some things, or completely disagree with them... which is ok either way, because this is the duality of all things, the Yin Yang describing the whole and the nothingness as complementary to each other. One cannot be full if it’s not empty and cannot be empty if it is not full.
For the last (almost) one decade, I lived with an extraordinary person who was an outstanding companion and who shared with me many unforgettable experiences. We supported each other in a true friendship that most won´t ever feel. We laughed and cried together, we met wonderful people and places, we learned many things together (about each other, about others and about ourselves) and we supported and encouraged each other for the best of our efforts. Fortune and destiny are complex things to measure and understand… and some things doesn´t go as we (our ego to be more precise) expect no matter how hard we struggle to adjust the “path of flight”... For some things in this life, you just need to follow the flow…
Yet through this experience, I had the chance to review many aspects of myself and confront with my deepest fears. I have not conquered them yet, but I´m now aware that if I don´t do anything to: (1) accept them, (2) confront them and (3) overcome them, I´ll never be free of myself, the only true obstacle to my very happiness. It gave me a chance to look to life in a new way and perceive, that almost nothing that an “average person” search in this life actually matters, unless it is connected to other deeper spiritual experience… and one way of doing this, is by meeting people, knowing their story, sharing our experiences and feelings, and connecting with them.
This is why I´m here… to learn from others, to share with others, to search/look with others for the same thing we all do in this (and possibly other) life… (re)connection with the whole, because we are now separated both physically and spiritually from each other…
I´m complex, yet simple;
I´m reserved, yet open minded;
I´m limited, yet unmeasurable;
I´m infinite, yet bounded;
I´m bounded, yet everywhere;
I´m everywhere, yet nowhere,
I´m nowhere, yet I´m here;
And here I am, waiting for you .

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Leaving all behind to find what I have lost: myself...
Teach, Learn, Share
TO TEACH MATHEMATICS, by making people understand that before, numbers, equations, algorithms and all the "boring things that usually people say they dislike on Math", that Maths is above anything else: A LANGUAGE. It is deeply connected to how we describe our understanding of the "reality". Just as, English, Portuguese and all other "standard spoken languades" it has its own grammar...
TO LEARN: About myself and how I am connected to everyone/everything else...
TO SHARE: My thoughts and personal experiences about this life... To share living moments, since if its not shared it looks pointless...
What I Can Share with Hosts
For example: Attention, Empathy, Good Laughs, A good homemade food =D, Good Conversations, A "walk in the park", My gratitude and my help.
