If you travel at the speed of light, you don't experience time or distance. So, no matter how far you go or how long the journey takes from Earth's perspective, to you the journey will feel instantaneous... The more I think about time, the less I understand it.
I'm traveling around Europe. If you can suggest recording/office space or can be a tour guide to interesting local places, please let me know here: https://lexfridman.com/travel
I met and talked with Jony Ive over coffee yesterday. He is a legendary designer behind the iMac, iPod, iPhone, iPad, MacBook, and he's a great human being who I've looked up to for a long time. We agreed to do a podcast when I'm back from Eastern Europe. Life is beautiful.
Here's my conversation with Jack Barsky, a former KGB agent who spied on the US for over 10 years, got caught after the Cold War, and became a resource for US counterintelligence. We talk about the KGB and Jack's fascinating life story. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dSVLjAdo8UA
I saw hundreds of destroyed Ukrainian homes today and spoke with people who lived through the hell of it. Amid the pain in their eyes and in their words, the beauty and power of the human spirit shines through. The things I saw and heard today will stay with me forever.

It was great meeting a fellow Texan Tim Kennedy here in Ukraine. I'm inspired by his never-ending willingness to help people in need, even in the most dangerous situations.
Politicians and the media often turn people against each other. Resist it. Choose love.
Hate is a poison that destroys the mind. Choose love.
I meditate on my mortality every day when I wake up. I imagine that this is the last day I get to live on this Earth, because one day it will be, and that day could be today. It helps bring clarity about what matters.

I'm grateful to be alive. Life is beautiful.

I love you all.
Few things make me happier than long conversations with good friends over borsch. It reminds me of childhood, of deep friendships formed through the ups and downs of life together.

I went to the war front in Ukraine to feel the war directly and to listen to the people who are living through it. This experience gave me a deeper understanding of pain and love, and has strengthened my belief in the human spirit. I'll publish what I recorded in a few weeks.
