Celebrating 30 Years of Opera: A Personal Tribute to Innovation and Comfort
Today, I'm thrilled to celebrate Opera browser's 30th anniversary—a milestone that marks three decades of innovation, creativity, and user-centric design. My journey with Opera began years ago, and it has been a trusted companion for focused browsing and creative exploration ever since.

I still remember the first time I used Opera's Notes and Blogs features. They made my online experience feel personal and productive, turning browsing into a creative outlet. Now, with Aria, Opera has taken a giant leap forward, offering intelligent assistance that makes browsing smoother and more enjoyable.

What I love most about Opera is how it feels like home—a familiar, comfortable space where I can focus, create, and connect without distractions. Whether it's the built-in VPN, ad blocker, or the seamless integration of tools, Opera continues to innovate while keeping the user experience at its heart.

"Innovation distinguishes between a leader and a follower."
— Steve Jobs

Opera's 30 years of leadership in browser technology is a testament to this truth.

On a personal note, I'm also enjoying a Japanese fiction audiobook, A Perfect Day to Be Alone, whose chapters are beautifully arranged by seasons, narrated by a young voice from Tokyo. It's a poetic companion to my browsing and blogging journey.

My revived blog is flourishing, and I'm happy to mark the end of February with this special post. Blogging has become a soothing way to express my thoughts and reflect on life's moments—a space where I search the web and, more importantly, search myself.

Thank you, Opera team, for 30 years of innovation and comfort. Here's to many more!

Reading quotations for motivation. Good or Bad?

after all these mad scribblings are about good bad and searches! Reading too many quotations sometimes is like over eating. The mind becomes unclear and wanders restless...(sometimes becoming very blank) It is the stage when I feel: 'reading quotations is useless' Some time ago I made an attempt to have just four quotations ready - just like some instant energy giver - to motivate me any time. Searching quotations, with the aim to short list for instant energy giving - the mind was blocked - making myself to quote: "reading quotations is of no benefit" At this stage I thought, let me have one quotation - just one - to motivate me any time....... I got this one: Never take life seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyway.

66 😎

66. A number that once sounded distant. Now it sits quietly beside me, sipping morning air. This is not a fitness routine. This is not a medical prescription. This is a conversation with the body, before the world starts talking. Minute 0–2: Waking Up Without Arguments I don’t jump out of bed. I negotiate. A slow turn. Feet touch the floor. The hips complain softly — not rebellion, just a reminder: “Ease into the day.” I smile. We’ve known each other long enough. Minute 3–6: Gentle Movements — No Heroics A few knee bends near the wall. Hip circles — small, like drawing commas in the air. Marching in place, as if I’m late for nothing. This is not exercise. This is oiling old hinges. The body responds politely. Minute 7–11: Walking — The Best Medicine Slow. Then moderate. If the weather is kind and yesterday’s dinner was lighter, I allow myself a gentle upward slope. No speed targets. No apps judging me. Just footsteps, breath, and that quiet joy of still being able to move forward. Minu...
