Sometimes life can be a mess. I have a lot of things which are to be done. I am stuck in a cloud.
![Figure 2: How we would like to do science (left) and how it actually works (right). Here, A represents what we currently know and B represents what we would like to know. Our desire is to move from A to B in as direct a line as possible. However, we usually get stuck as we are approaching B, things don't work out, and we keep taking detours and going in circles. Uri Alon calls this state "the cloud." Eventually, we give up on reaching B and instead head for C, a new insight that we found while wandering in the cloud. Usually, C represents the solution to a problem we weren't even aware of when we started. After U. Alon [1].](http://static1.squarespace.com/static/520efa66e4b09ffb67f7236a/t/53a2355de4b00d76447a51d9/1403139423859/?format=500w)
Personal life is not going great too. But all that will be thing of past soon I will start over. I hope. I will.
