Youth does not mean irresponsibility, nor does adulthood mean responsibility Something that I have been told several times and that refers to certain experiences that I have lived recently, is that youth generates distrust in different people who are looking to rent something or sell something, and as an example I must say that a few weeks ago I wanted to rent an apartment and they gave me many obstacles to make the contract when I offered them to pay the whole year in advance. When you talk about the opportunity to receive the whole annual contract in advance and in cash, you might think that it is a great opportunity because you can use all the money before the end of the contract, but the reality is that in my case it did not matter that I offered this, but they kept demanding me to pay an insurance against non-payment (it is difficult to stop paying when I have already paid everything before), so I did not see any other reason for this to happen other than being a young foreigner. I understand that many young people do things that deteriorate properties or lack economic stability, but generalization is becomes a problem when it starts to make us miss good opportunities or fall into bad investments that we can't get out of and where I can say several examples as well, such as the case of Archegos Capital. It could be assumed that adulthood is synonymous with maturity or responsibility, but the reality is that adults are big children, and by this I mean that they may look older, with white hair or wrinkles on their faces, but they are still the same people they were in the past, although with more experiences that make them make better decisions, but they still make mistakes in what they do not know, as well as getting carried away by things they have not been able to understand or control. Adulthood does not mean economic stability in all cases, because although it is "expected" that an adult has a higher income, the reality is that people can lose their jobs, be swindled, go bankrupt in a business, and simply make bad decisions, and not "expecting" this to happen, does not mean that it does not happen, because there is always the possibility of living something like this. Stereotypes are good in cases where we must be attentive to what we have in front of us, but they start to be bad when they are the reason why we let go different opportunities, and as an example I must comment that the person who gave me obstacles to rent, asked me if I was still interested in renting after I had signed the contract with another person who gave me the opportunity, and this person received a new renter the same day he gave the rental publication while the other was 1 month without renting and missed the opportunity to receive the full year in advance. Let's be careful with generalizations. **It is good that there is opposition in all things.** I do not remember exactly how old I was when I heard and learned this phrase for the first time, however, I am sure that at that time it did not have as much meaning as it does now. I vaguely remember not being taught the phrase, I know I read it, I remember it catching my attention, I even remember underlining it, but the meaning it had for me at the time, I'm sure, I didn't know what it is really like to have difficulties. In recent days I have thought several times about this phrase, I was thinking precisely about all the time I have been learning about this teaching, telling myself how much I understand it, how learning this helped me in the past and how it currently helps me in the circumstances I am living. But how difficult it is to make a catharsis for me without falling into reasoning, and start philosophizing, when I believe that something is more complex than it seems to be, so I allow myself to share with you what I come to think about this subject. It is simple: to be happy you need to know sadness, to know that something is sweet you must know what is bitter, to know what is success you must know what is failure, and so I could continue and make a long list of statements that show the point, but there are many factors behind, for example, decision making is a crucial factor, the ability we have to differentiate before choosing and the ability of attraction that options have on us. Who doesn't have a hard time making a decision? That is the real challenge, because the model of life we have is that we are attracted to one or the other. Now it is even more challenging to make the decision when we do not know the details of what we are about to choose, that is why knowledge is important, but there is the problem that some things are made to be attractive to attract our attention and we select them, but they are not always the best option. No matter if we choose wrong, because perhaps we were deceived, it is that this experience is a learning experience, some take little time to understand that it was not the right decision and rectify appreciating and valuing much more what is right, but others take more time to be convinced that they live in a deception and are not fully happy, but that is another issue, not all learn at the same pace, but there are also those who spend their whole life in the deception and die that way. Another dilemma is to convince ourselves that what we are suffering is part of a learning process, because perhaps we chose well, but the road that leads to positive results is rough, a slow journey, where happiness or success cannot be glimpsed in the distance, and we can only keep moving forward, mainly out of conviction, feeling sure that it is the right path, until we reach the goal and understand that it was a learning process, that the opposition was necessary. Maybe our sufferings are also consequences of our bad decisions, they are not part of the path that leads to success, maybe it was a bad shortcut or we simply got out of the way, but they are still opposition and will remain so until we return to the path, but it is still learning, because if we get out of that situation, it will never happen to us again. Leaving behind so many figurative words, I try to say that whatever is happening to us we must have the ability to take advantage of it whether we have chosen well or not, that it is an opportunity for growth, opposition is necessary, and there is no way to say it nicely, there is no other way to know the good without first knowing the bad, in the broad sense of the word, we cannot live in a state of endless innocence, like a child who does not know so many things. That is why these days I have tried in the most positive way possible, to take everything that happens to me as a learning process, that opposition is necessary and that I must move forward until I achieve my objectives, that this will make me stronger and wiser. Uff is extremely difficult, and it gets more complicated when you are of a certain age where you understand life more and you don't want to give yourself the luxury of making mistakes. **Self-esteem and self-confidence** Self-esteem is the person we can all be. Someone who is concerned with knowing themselves and their role in the world. Its essential characteristic is the awareness it has of itself, of its capabilities and potential as well as its limitations, which it tends to accept without denying them, although it does not focus on them, it is always there to look for more favorable solutions. As he knows and values himself, he works on taking care of his body and watches his habits to avoid that those that harm him can be perpetuated. He filters his thoughts emphasizing the positive ones, tries to be emotionally up most of the time, in joy and enthusiasm, and when situations lead him to feel angry or sad he expresses those states in the best possible way without hiding them neurotically. Self-esteem is also the confidence we have in ourselves as well as in the positive forces we have to face the day to day. This confidence is the guide to take risks, to try new paths and possibilities; to see alternatives in circumstances where most people see no way out. These are the characteristics that make a person express him/herself in unknown terrain with faith and always with the disposition to succeed. When you are confident in who you are, you do not need justifications or explanations in order to be accepted. When differences of opinion arise, trusting in oneself makes criticism acceptable and used for growth. The one who lives from a sufficiently strong self-esteem, assumes responsibility for his life, his actions and the consequences that these can bring. He does not look for culprits but for solutions. The problems become a "how to", and instead of feeling sorry for not achieving what he wants, the self-esteemed person will consider the possible ways to obtain them. Responsibility is answering to someone, and that someone is himself or God in case his vision of life is spiritual. ***He takes as a gift the power to influence his destiny and works on it. Who lives in this state does not leave things to chance, but promotes the desired results and accepts in the best possible way what happens.*** Although the person with stable self-esteem may like to talk a lot, his actions will speak for him as much or more than his words. Those who live confident in their power, love life and demonstrate it in every act. They are not afraid to unleash their power even though they may value prudence and respect the rules of each context. Showing affection, saying "I love you", flattering and physically touching, are natural behaviors in those who esteem themselves, as they enjoy themselves and their relationship with people. The way of linking is quite free and without the typical chain of prejudices that culturally bind the devalued. In this expressiveness, it is safe to observe limits, since in order to express oneself, it is not necessary to attack or annul anyone's argument. And finally let's remember that self-esteem is created by each person, some of them hurting themselves, that is to say, with all that insecurity they create in themselves that leads them to fall and not achieve what they really want and have proposed, on the other hand there are those who believe in themselves and achieve everything they dreamed of as children. I hope you all liked it and that it has helped you as much as it has helped me. Remember that self-love is paramount as well as self-confidence, a big hug to everyone!

What are Sage's Benifits for Mental Health Sage is a Mediterranean plant that has become increasingly popular in recent years in a variety of settings. The powerful and distinct aroma of this herb, which has been used in my family, draws attention. In the summer, the magical sage plant, which keeps green throughout the year and never leaves, blooms in purple, blue, and pink colors. Sage, which is related to mint and has many uses and health advantages, has received a lot of attention in recent years.

Sage is extremely simple to brew and offers numerous health advantages due to its antioxidant characteristics. Depending on your preference, you can use fresh or dried sage leaves. So, how do you make sage tea? All you have to do is combine the leaves and water in a pot and bring to a boil. You can let it brew for a few minutes and let the taste settle, just like black and green tea, for a more aromatic and tasty result. You can add lemon after it has been brewed if you want it to have a different aroma. You can also use bottled sage tea if you have trouble preparing tea in a short amount of time due to your busy schedule. Packaged teas are produced from dried sage leaves, just like when you make your own. Furthermore, its packaging makes it incredibly convenient and hygienic to carry in your luggage or maintain in your office. Sage not only protects you against infections, but it also has a significant effect on your emotional well-being. Your stress level rises dramatically, especially on days when you don't have any time off from work.

This amazing plant has a relaxing effect and is frequently used before key presentations and tests. Sage's soothing impact, according to experts, is especially essential in the treatment of depression. Finally, due to its sedative impact, it aids persons with sleep issues in falling asleep faster. The usage of sage for burning has expanded dramatically in recent years. By altering the energy of a place, burning sage is thought to alleviate stress and anxiety. It has been discovered that the scent that is released when it is burned has a stimulating effect on nerve cells, which promotes creativity. Burning sage enhances productivity and creativity, especially in business contexts. Finally, sage is supposed to break the germs around you due to its antibacterial characteristics. As a result, whether you are unwell or have been sick, you can burn sage to purify your home. To put it another way, the list of sage's benefits is limitless. When ingesting sage, as with everything else, pay attention to the dosage. When taken in large quantities, this therapeutic plant might create health concerns. Excessive sage use can result in minor side effects like nausea and vomiting, as well as significant concerns including heart disease and kidney difficulties. As a result, it is suggested that you do not exceed the dosage prescribed by professionals. So, if we're asking how much sage should be consumed daily, we may say that a few glasses of sage can be consumed everyday with peace of mind. **Beneficial bacteria that makes us smart..** Our body is not alone, we are accompanied by billions of bacteria and often fungi or parasites and even viruses that live inside our body, we have bacteria on the skin, we have bacteria on the mucous membranes, in our digestive system and in many other places, but Without a doubt, the most important combination of bacteria that we all know is in the colon in the part of our intestine. This intestinal microbiota has been shown to have an infinity of effects for us, it can affect our immune system, it can affect our ability to defend ourselves against infection, it can affect our digestion and even, as I mentioned, it can affect our mood, and our cognitive performance and it's not two or three bacteria going around we are talking about 100 trillion bacteria, that is, we have three times more microorganisms in our intestine than cells in the entire body (this is possible because microorganisms and bacteria are much smaller than our cells) All these organisms were not just there in passing, because they entered with the food and are going to leave with the fecal matter, they fulfill key roles such as controlling the functioning of your nervous system, absorbing nutrients, training the immune system, etc. and obviously when we have a vision it is an alteration of this bacterial flora that today the vast majority of people have is much more likely to generate diseases and also accelerate the normal aging process of our body. Not only normal flora or microbiota in places like the intestine or the skin, but also in places that we would never have imagined as the brain. I thought that the brain was sterile, that it could be infected with bacteria and cause serious illness, but bacteria did not exist under normal conditions. as it happens with the intestine and in fact the studies that evaluate this possible microbiota of the brain found bacteria in the brain that are very similar to those that live in our intestine. Today we all know that the worse intestinal flora I have, the worse our destiny will work out, and the more digestive problems I will have, with the same criteria that you think will happen with the microbiota of your brain, we still know extremely little about these bacteria but if indeed there is a brain microcrack, it is logical to take care of it and maintain a balance so that our brain works better, but the microbiota of our intestine, in addition to the functions that I mentioned, digests part of the food that we cannot digest, such as fiber and from that produces substances that with very little originality we call post biotics. These substances can be those of vitamins such as vitamin K or vitamin B12 to neurotransmitters and hormones such as serotonin, many of these substances are associated with the proper functioning of the brain, for example, the increased production that bacteria can give us of vitamin A , improves spatial memory and the generation of new neurons in the hippocampus, with which maintaining healthy values ​​of vitamins means helping your brain renew neurons and orienting easier and good values ​​of vitamin b12 help prevent dementia and are necessary for the proper functioning of the nerves. Many people experience difficulty concentrating when you have just low B12 values, due to having followed a very restrictive diet and these bacteria also produce Arginine which is an amino acid that is normally used as a vasodilator, it enlarges the size of your arteries for muscle training, but the brain fulfills a crucial function that is increases nitric oxide dilates these but cerebral arteries and this means more oxygen in the brain and less degeneration due to age. And this is not even all, there are not so many bacteria that my body can produce B12 for that reason it has to be supplemented, but there are many bacteria that, if they are well fed, will produce ketone bodies, such as beta hydroxybutyrate, which are substances that a lot of People associate diets like the brilliant keto that are known to improve your cognitive performance and also slow down aging and brain damage, so the better the flora, the less cognitive deterioration with age I will have and better performance.

Unpopular Opinion: I liked Matrix Resurrections (although I didn't love it) Almost 20 years after its third episode (Matrix Revolutions, 2003), the fourth movie of the saga with which the Wachowski sisters revolutionized the action and science fiction genres at the beginning of the 21st century has arrived in theaters. Since last Friday, January 28, it has been available on HBO streaming for Latin America, after almost two months in theaters with a cold (almost indifferent) response from the public. For many fans of the trilogy, this sequel was disappointing, for others it was a run-of-the-mill movie with no outstanding aspects, while many others found it boring to the point of not finishing watching it. Among so many opinions, the debate about the legacy of The Matrix, the 1999 film that blew the minds of millions of viewers around the world, both for its special effects and martial arts choreographies, as well as for its layers of existentialism, oriental philosophies, literary references and techno aesthetics that captivated the generation of the end of the millennium, is simmering. I invite you to read this review of the good, the bad and the ugly of Matrix Resurrections (Lana Wachowski, 2021). Greetings, dear Community. The first thing I must point out is that I agree that the film is slow in its first hour (something unforgivable for fans of the trilogy, accustomed to the fast-paced sequences of shootouts and fights). But the story demanded an important contextualization exercise to justify the presence of Neo and Trinity in this new version of the matrix and to connect the new events within it with the story closed with their sacrifice in the third movie. But once that first hour is over, the story becomes more fluid, even faster, and presents us with a more leisurely and mature vision of the events that, although it lacks the intensity and the protesting character of 1999, is no less interesting for that reason. Another much criticized aspect is the direct and simple humor that breaks with the solemnity and mysticism of the previous ones. Referential formulas and worn-out jokes that reach the height of annoyance in the (fortunately) short post-credits scene. And it is precisely this disconcerting change of tone, which borders on self-mockery, that makes me wonder: isn't the first dialogue between Thomas Anderson (Keanu Revees) and his partner Smith (Jonathan Groff) an autobiographical clue with which Lana Wachowski explains the raison d'être of this film? In that conversation Smith tells Andreson, a famous video game developer: "Surely you understand why our beloved parent company, Warner Brothers, decided to make a sequel to the trilogy (...) They said they would do it with or without us (...) and they made it very clear that they will cancel our contract if we don't cooperate". Later, in reference to that same conversation, the therapist (Neil Patrick Harris) tells Anderson during a session, "Yesterday you went to a meeting with your business partner and he ambushed you by asking you to do a game you would never do. This attack clearly left you speechless. His violence affected you and your mind responded." I wonder if this conscious and systematic destruction of everything important to the essence, tone and aesthetics of the trilogy is not the response of Lana Wachowski's mind to pressure from Warners to forcibly extend a story that had already been closed. I can't say for sure, but as the therapist says in another line, "There's nothing wrong with that. It's what artists do," referring to how Anderson "turned elements of his life into a narrative" that gave life to The Matrix, the video game that would make him world famous. The truth is that the film goes directly against the spirit of the previous installments and finds one of its most shocking elements in the new Morpheus, played by Yahya Abdul-Mateen II. Of the warrior prophet who in the first episode guides Neo in the search for his destiny as the Chosen One, little more than the color of his skin remains. In Resurrections, Morpheus looks almost all the time like a kind of virtual pimp without the emotionality and leadership of the character played by Laurence Fishburne. But within these breaks with the original plot, which so disappointed the followers of the saga, I find some aspects worth noting: The evolution of Naiobe (Jada Pinkett Smith), who became the General of the flourishing city of Io, the new settlement of human civilization after the siege of Zion. The old fighter reflects very well the consequences of war when she acknowledges how difficult it was for her to adapt to peace and recognize its value: "I´m ashamed of it now. My pessimism of how long it took me to believe that a world without war was possible". And even more, she brings us closer to the integrative vision necessary for the resolution of long war conflicts when she tells Neo: "Zion was stuck in the past. Stuck in war. Stuck in a Matrix of its own. They believed that it had to be us or them. This city (Io) was build by us and them." History has taught us (more than once) that "it takes much more courage to make peace than to make war" and this twist in the relationship between humans and machines makes the Wachowski's story remind us of it. And the fact is that, stridencies and jokes aside, the new narrative rhythm, the tone and the deepening of integrationist and less radical discourses (which were already announced in the trilogy in dialogues such as those of Counselor Hanman), the fourth installment of this saga ratifies the inevitable: The creators mature, evolve and incorporate their learning to their work, at the risk of disenchanting those who followed them dazzled by the creative jewels of their youth. In terms of technical aspects, the film is sufficient, though never impressive. It repeats many formulas of the previous ones and the combat choreographies lost the brightness and charm of the first movies, perhaps because they were repetitive. The self-referential passages can become tiresome at certain times and at the end the story slackens again and loses some of the fluidity gained along the way. The sound and music continue to be strong arguments of the franchise; while the new performances pass without pain (and without glory) on the screen, saving the good performances of Jada Pinkett Smith and Carrie-Anne Moss, and making us miss Hugo Weaving and Laurence Fishbourne. For all this (and more), Matrix Resurrections is a film worth seeing, as long as you do not go with the expectations of finding a product at the height of the previous installments. Because, even if they keep the thread of continuity, these are stories with completely different narratives, aesthetics and philosophical paradigms. I think the low expectations with which I sat down to watch it allow me to appreciate a little of what I find good in it. In short, it's light years away from the trilogy presented between 1999 and 2003, but it's also far from being an intractable dreck or the worst film of its genre in recent times. If you've already seen it or are encouraged to do so, I'd love to know your opinion in the comments,

a new beginning (Grand Tour) In an unexplored world there lived on a remote island a civilisation of nomadic people who were experts in survival and with great ability to solve problems, the ability of these people to cope with the adversities that arose daily on the island led them to become experts in different areas, such as fishing, agriculture and even invented a novel method to filter water, They understood that they could not fight against the island and had to learn to be part of it, also living with the different species of animals that lived there, which every day was getting worse, the few predators that lived on that island knew that they had to hunt to survive even if they had to put their lives in danger, our story just begins and begins with a young boy named Iman. Iman was a young son of one of the leaders of the village, although what characterized him was his great ability to get into trouble, although he was a young man with good manners his great ability to commit mischief gave him the name "Cualu" a word that among the villagers meant "not very serious and relaxed person" Iman was not alone he had great friends, classmates and also of daily coexistence, They were very close and everything seemed to be going well until one day the unimaginable began, the island began to vibrate and although the villagers certainly did not understand what was happening they knew it was a bad omen, Gio the oldest man on the island said "we must leave the island or we will end up just like her, while Chaos the leader of the village thought differently for him vibrating was only a sign of "big changes" although both parties were right one of them had much more wisdom since the change was imminent only that it was not for the better but to sink into the depths of the sea, Iman on the other hand while walking one day along the coast he came across a small boat, The sea had dragged to the shore a frame that barely kept floating, Imam to see such a wonderful gift did not think twice and decided to start with a plan far-fetched enough and lacked a little wisdom as it was to enter the great waters of the sea and seek new lands, lands that really could give him a greater life. For a long time he sailed, Iman knew he had to be patient, the days were getting harder and harder, there was hunger, desperation, restlessness, but for Iman all that had a meaning, the meaning of knowing how to wait for his moment and to discover new lands, a paradise never seen before, maybe it was something fantastic for some people but for Iman it was something real, it was in his mind, in his dreams, He had already touched land and had already felt the air running through the trees, sliding everywhere and all the children of the village running, it seemed something out of place and that perhaps it would only end up being just a dream, weeks passed and Iman was still solid, his thoughts had not changed and he had to continue sailing towards the nothingness in search of everything. After almost 2 months of sailing and his hopes shattered, Iman was at the breaking point when suddenly he saw a bird, something that logically told him that there was land nearby or at least that bird was not lost and had simply gone out to look for food, Iman decided to chase that bird, which like a compass guided them for a long time, Iman had hope again and everything got even better when suddenly he managed to see an island in the distance, Iman could not believe it, they had crossed the sea and he was seeing in front of his eyes the fruit of such a risky mission, he could not believe it, perplexed and stuttering he started to cry, he had achieved it, he had obtained new lands and they were there, in front of him. .. When arriving at the coast of the great island, Iman decides to go himself with a group of men to be able to know the land and to be able to give a good tour to the one that soon will become his house, he knew the existing dangers and much more of a land to which he does not know much, Iman was not going to take much in realizing how difficult it was going to be to live in that island, The Maikon were huge felines with big nails and very sharp teeth, they had a great ability to hunt and corner their prey, they were not very strong but what they did have was a lot of intelligence, they learned to read their prey and then attack and be effective. Iman had never had such a fearsome enemy before so he had to be cautious and try to keep those animals away if he really wanted his family to live there. As for the vegetation, it was abundant and there were a lot of birds, it probably had everything the tribe needed and for Iman that was good apart from the dangerous animals that also lived there.

Iman had managed to establish a new north for the whole tribe but he knew that his journey was just beginning he had to start thinking about the months ahead and all the adversity that lay ahead so he began by creating good huts, he had to reinforce those houses so he devised a plan, take the biggest and thickest trees and turn them into huge splinters that would then be used as roofs in the future. He took the biggest and hardest rocks on the island and began to make a kind of wall, carving out each touch and beginning a plan that again to many was excessive but to his knowledge this was still nothing more.

Unavoidable fate (let's play) part #3 End Several weeks have passed and the young Anton and Flora still remember clearly everything that happened but they also don't understand how it all ended so quickly. They can't figure out if the strange energy really dissolved or if it just hid to come back stronger, "It was an incredible paranormal experience" says Anton, luckily nothing bad happened, Flora on the other hand thinks that it is not over yet and says "it seems strange to me that everything ended in that way, besides, Franklin has not gone to class since that day and that has had me worried and thinking for several days and, yes, did something happen to him? , Anton answers "I don't think so, although we can go and visit him to find out". Both friends head towards Franklin's house but the first thing they notice is that it seems that the house has been uninhabited for several months. Anton knocks on the door "knock" "knock" "knock" has no answer so he decides to enter, while Flora is a little more timid and says "we better not go in, if nobody comes out it's because they don't want visitors" Anton ignores and decides to open the door, the first thing he notices is that everything inside is worse than outside the house, there is a lot of dust and spider web, also you can see a kind of red trail on the floor, Then Flora says "you better listen to me, let's go, this is not right" Anton looks at Flora again and answers coldly "if something happened to Franklin it is our duty to help him as he did" to the surprise of both young people, Franklin was in that place, sitting on a chair with his back turned and the young Anton and Flora cannot see his face. We were afraid that something had happened to you, this house seems to have been abandoned for a long time and where are your parents? In a second Franklin disappears from the chair and both young men get scared and start screaming (desperate) then when he tries to leave the house the door suddenly closes and Franklin stands at the exit. The boys stop and when they see Franklin's back they are terrified, (his eyes were bloodshot, it was not clear if his pupils were still in place or had been removed from his mouth, there was a kind of slimy liquid coming out of his mouth, the fluid falling to the ground secreted a kind of putrid smell, his arms and legs had scars all over them as if he had self-injured himself). Anton says, what happened to you? Franklin looks at both young men and smiles then says "you gave me the opportunity to know the true eternal life" Flora scared says "you don't look like you are going to live long, you are in a state of decomposition" Franklin starts to scream and inexplicable and unintelligible sounds echo throughout the house, both young Anton and Flora run upstairs, Even worse was when they opened the wardrobe door, both parents were alive but with a kind of tranquilizer, they did not respond and they were not aware of what was happening, their stay was devastating but if they did not get out of there soon they would end up dying of hunger or even worse of some disease due to poor nutrition. Hiding with both parents were Anton and Flora, almost two hours had already passed in that place and the patience and time was running out for everyone, Anton decides to come up with a plan, probably who is controlling Franklin is the same evil entity that was terrorizing us before, so there is nothing left but to challenge him to play a game but which one? Flora answers "We must find something in which we can beat that (thing) without harming Franklin" At that moment we hear some footsteps approaching slowly towards the place where they were hiding, a shadow is glimpsed under the door, both young people anxious and very afraid decide that the best way is to separate and that one of the two manage to get out first and look for help, The moment they open the door their surprise is such when they observe that it was not Franklin, Antonella, a young companion of both boys was spying on them and worried because no one was leaving the house and they had been inside for a long time, she decided to go and look for them, both boys asked "How did you get in and why are you here? Antonella answers "I was just passing by this neighbourhood and I saw the moment you both entered this house, besides it seemed strange to me that Franklin being so educated and prepared in classes has more than 1 month without attending, so why don't you tell me what is going on here? "Anton answers Antonella "You have come to the wrong place at the wrong time, now you won't be able to leave easily and you will have to prepare yourself to see the strangest thing you have ever seen" -Antonella "I think you were saying very strange things, besides I really don't see anything strange in this place other than you being in a wardrobe" at that moment Franklin appears "You are all going to die in this place insolent children" that broken and sharp voice at the same time seemed to be watching a horror movie in person, The three young people run out quickly to Franklin's room that was at the end of the corner in the moment that they are going to close the door Flora is taken of the leg of strange form and winged until taking it out of the room, while Anton and Antonella manage to close the door without realizing that Flora had been captured, Antonella begins to cry in terror while Anton decides once and for all to confront Antonella once again "What is happening with Franklin did not look like him" Anton " we must find a way to get rid of this evil entity that has Franklin and the only way is to challenge him to play a game where if I win he must leave forever and if he wins he will only keep my soul" Antonella can not believe it and Anton does not think of explaining anything else, He decides to go out and look for Franklin, but when he opens the door, that dark entity has shown its true face, Anton our destiny has always been to meet and sooner or later your soul will be mine" said that (evil thing) while Anton answers "you will know how important it is to have great friends and more when you hurt one of them you will wish you had not appeared in my way, I challenge you to a game in which the winner will have to leave forever and if I lose you will only have me and you will leave" The evil entity began to observe and closed his fist as if accepting the challenge. Anton decides to play the game in which he had the best skill, if you manage to capture me before 5 minutes you win but if I escape you win". Anton closes the door and places different obstacles so that this thing does not pass while Franklin easily knocks down everything in its path, at the moment he enters the room he does not manage to find Anton, so he notices that the window was open, when Anton manages to get down, Franklin was already downstairs watching and Anton shouts "you are very deceitful, while Franklin throws himself on Anton, At this moment he manages to make contact with Franklin's soul which tells him "there is a place in the house where the evil entity does not come near and you must go there", Anton quickly follows the voice that advises him to go to the altar where there is an image of a man known and venerated as a kind of saint, an Indian shaman known by the locals as the (ILLUMINATED) one who could see everything beyond his reach and that for some reason the entity could not get close to his image, Anton knelt in front of the painting and the entity reached the place but could not take a step somehow only the simple image of the Indian did not allow it to approach, Anton went further and took the image what he had not noticed was that behind the painting was a kind of seal and it was the same that had the beast on his forehead somehow who had placed that seal on the painting had also done so on the evil entity, The strangest thing is that the one who had painted that picture had been Anton's father, then everything began to make sense, the evil entity that was destined to get with Anton always everywhere was the same one that his father had portrayed for Franklin's parents, Who are you? said Anton, why did my father do that painting and does it have the same mark on your body? Franklin (The entity) answers "I am your unborn brother despised by our parents and forgotten in the history of their lives, that's why I want to take you too" Anton collapses and starts to cry he doesn't understand how it all happened but he feels torn to hear something like that, then he says "I can't fight you, you are my brother and although I didn't have the chance to meet you I want to tell you that our parents didn't forget you somehow the pregnancy went wrong and mom lost the embryo, but I don't stop seeing every night my mom crying for your sudden loss" The entity starts to leave Franklin's body and he starts to make sense of his surroundings then, The entity turns into a young man and says "Somehow you have freed me, plus you have won, it's been 5 min, thank you). | Although it seems strange this story, according to great believers say that the souls that are forgotten lose their way and those embryos or babies that die before being born, in the human or earthly life are physically no longer found but spiritually they continue to grow. This story is totally imaginary, I hope you liked it, it was a lot of fun to write it for you, Happy Sunday.

Fear or Courage (Let's Play) part #2 What seemed to be a simple teenage game for Anton and Flora ended up becoming a real nightmare, both young people began to experience strange circumstances. Anton after learning about the strange event that almost took the life of his partner Flora, decides to confront this paradigm in which now both are involved, the evil that was stalking them was getting stronger, so he had to find a way to know what was happening, He decided to go to the house of a classmate called Franklin, he was that typical classmate who liked all kinds of paranormal things and always had a new hypothesis to tell, Anton was not very sure that Franklin could understand how dangerous the matter was or that he might not believe everything he had to tell him, but it was that same anxiety and latent fear that made him take that hasty decision. On the other hand, Flora was still confined in the ambulatory as if by some miracle the blows had not been hard enough and she was improving rapidly. The events happened so fast that even for Flora it was difficult to remember and no matter how hard she tried to recreate the moment of the accident she could not do it. Like shards of broken glass there were only very blurry images of how it all happened. What she did remember was that moments before a person who was near the scene of the accident had intentionally bumped into her and had said "let's play", the same words she had heard earlier in the school bathroom. Something was happening and for Flora everything was clear, everything had to do with that night in which he and his friend made a blood pact that for them was just a game and simple curiosity although the reality was different. After several hours of searching Anton managed to find Franklin, at first he wasn't sure if he wanted to tell him everything that was happening but after chatting a bit with Franklin he became more confident and ended up telling him everything that was happening, to which his companion was impressed saying the following words "every blood pact has a cost, What was strange for Franklin was how that dark energy had ended up involved in all that, perhaps the problem had not been the pact but the moment or the place itself, they were probably not alone and that evil that at that moment was also close by ended up being anchored to a very dangerous game. For Franklin it was all clear, Anton and Flora had to continue playing but first they had to know the guidelines and the only way to know the rules of the game was to confront that evil energy that always ended up appearing when something dreadful happened. A day had already passed since the last time they had had an encounter with this spectre and it was only a matter of time before it appeared again, so they had to be prepared and start the game again, that game that for both young people was totally alien and that they had entered without having any knowledge of anything just because they wanted to do something different. Both young people meet again as usual, almost 24 hours had passed since the last encounter with that evil energy, so they decide that they must look for answers and the best way was looking to have communication again with that thing that haunted them, while they were talking and thinking what they could do lying on Anton's bed suddenly a loud bang is heard in the kitchen of the house, both young people clearly heard the loud and resonant sound, they decided to go out quickly to see what had happened but to their surprise there was nothing different, Then they quickly heard how someone began to run up the stairs to Anton's room and shut the door tightly, not knowing what to do and scared to death both teenagers began to feel anxious, Flora went into a state of panic shouting "I don't want to die, I don't want to die, I don't want to die) while Anton much more sensible said "calm we must think well, is what he really wants us to be anxious and not manage to think clearly" to all this Flora decides to trust Anton and both young people shout loudly "Whoever it is. LET'S PLAY" suddenly the whole house starts to feel heavy and the lights start to fail, then that dark voice says "Not everything works the way you want it to, it's my game it's my rules" However Anton responds "If you want to play it's time to do it, but tell us what exactly do you want from us? "Nothing is heard and that silence in the whole house falls, without answer Anton full of anger and rage shouts again "let's play but tell us the rules" Then the TV and the radio are turned on at the same time and the following words are heard "I'm everywhere, you wanted to play and I'm here for you, I'm alone I don't want you to leave ever, So let's play " Anton was not going to let this evil thing take over both of them at its whim they were nobody's plaything but he was also aware of the great power of this (thing) it had already tried to hurt both of them and it wasn't just in their house it was in different places, so whatever it was this thing had the power and ability to be in both places at the same time worse still to move and make strange things happen. Flora, perplexed by what was happening, has a moment of courage and shouts "if we win you will leave us alone" suddenly an object shoots towards both Anton manages to get away and Flora barely manages to evade the object which hits against the wall, both frightened young people run out of the room scared to death and not knowing what to do they begin to feel the fear taking hold of them without being able to do anything. Knock Knock... the door of the house was heard, both Anton and Flora did not want to leave the room for fear that something would happen to them but the door of the house did not stop ringing, so they were armed with courage and decided to run for help, they go down quickly and opened the door, there was his partner Franklin, Anton says "what are you doing here? Franklin answers "I think I know how to solve your problem" quickly Anton says "come in and come with us quickly, Franklin enters and they all run quickly to Anton's room when suddenly something begins to appear that dark energy that they saw before begins to take shape, with elongated limbs and large claws, thin legs and face erased that (thing) had made its appearance and for the young people it was not very good news, then Franklin shouts "Creature of the darkness look for your way leave this place and look for the clarity of the eternal light" the creature begins to fade appearing to have finished everything and after a few minutes it manages to enter the body of Flora this without being able to do anything and to avoid that the evil enters his body ends up succumbing before the power of the (thing) that begins to attack Anton this as he can defends himself although the unevenness of forces was overwhelming, So Franklin takes the lead and makes a somewhat risky action, embraces Flora and begins to say a prayer while he begins to scratch and squeeze harder and harder, Franklin begins to feel the fatigue of the great strength of the demon itself and his body gradually feels as it runs out of strength, while Anton is lying on the floor unable to do anything just watching what was happening the fear had taken over his mind and his body had no ability to respond to any situation. Franklin in a last gasp shouted "Anton come back here, find your courage only you can overcome it is your own fear that is destroying us" then Anton came to his senses and as if a bucket of cold water had been thrown at him he quickly thought of the words that Franklin had mentioned earlier "my own fear, Anton stands up and takes Flora by the arm, she looks at him without any reaction and smiles suspiciously while Anton shouts "Get out, creature of darkness, find your own way and leave me and mine alone", then everything changes again, Flora falls to the ground, Franklin finally manages to breathe normally again, everything is quiet and after several minutes everything seems to be normal. A week passed and everything was again as it had been before what had happened, for Anton and Flora would never make pacts again, and even less so if it was something dark and diabolical. While Franklin was a little more perverse, not only had he acquired the entity that was chasing Anton and Flora but he had also made it part of him, coexisting in his body as one, he had allowed that night instead of freeing the others this demon entered his body and took possession of it serving as a vessel for the spirit so that it could have a body in which to inhabit. This story will be continued.

A Horror Story (Let's Play) On a dark night like any other night where everything seemed to be normal, unexplainable things were happening, Anton and Flora two young friends were used to play video games every night and then watch a horror movie, on the other hand that night was different both young people decided to do something new. Anton was someone very curious and was always looking for a way to satisfy that curiosity, so while he was reading a book of dark magic, he had a thought one that among the most twisted people would not be easy to imagine, his macabre mind had the idea to challenge death itself and play a game in which there was only one winner. Guided by that hunger of wanting to know a little more about the dead and exposing his own life and that of his friend decided to play a game one that involved dark magic, for flora everything seemed ridiculous but for Anton everything was different although he did not know the consequences of trying to circumvent the eternal darkness knew the danger in which they were getting, both young men began a ritual one that would not be easy to deliver, they cut the monkey and made a pact, one where only they were the only ones who could undo the pact and the only way to do it was beating the same death. They promised to outwit death as many times as possible and if nothing happened in any of them, it was really written in their lives to stay alive one more day. That night began what for both young people would be the worst decision of their lives, driven by curiosity and that insatiable thirst of wanting to know everything and even what is not known, they began a game that perhaps would not have the best consequences... The next day both young people went to class and then one of them would have to expose himself to some event that would somehow challenge death itself. So Anton went to the bathroom and when he entered he did not notice that something dark was also in that place. He starts to hear some footsteps approaching quickly and when he turns around he can't see anything. Anton panics a bit but he starts to breathe slowly and thinks that it was all just a trick of his mind so he decides to leave, but before leaving he sees how a prayer is formed all over the place saying "Let's play, let's play...". Anton starts to run and manages to get out of that place so fast that he doesn't notice that his friend was about to enter the same place unaware of what was happening Flora enters the bathroom and there is nothing strange so he decides to do his need of that moment, he washes his hands and in a second he begins to have a kind of illusion and that water with which he was washing starts to turn into blood... Flora with much fear raises the face for his surprise his Name was written in the glass of the bathroom all in blood flora very scared begins to scream and decides to leave running only that he did not have the same luck of his friend the door of the bathroom is stuck and something dark begins to make presence in the place flora dead of fear begins to call to his friend asking for help and with nothing else to do enters in total redemption and that darkness becomes increasingly greater to only say.... Let's play Flora", scared to death, answers "what do you want to play? who are you? that darkness surrounds the whole place making a strong presence and a thick voice is heard .... I am the one who decided to play with you that night Flora you must play or die trying. At that moment Flora doesn't know what to do and hears noise outside the bathroom, it was his friend trying to enter, the door opens and his friend enters to look for him, at that moment both youngsters start to cry and ignore completely what is happening... Anton begins to shout "we were just playing it was not true" the voice does not respond and that scared young man decides to leave taking the hand of his friend both young people run away at the time they leave class and both young people and go to their homes happened something out of the ordinary. While Anton was trying to cross the street a young old man looked at him and said "play it's your turn" Anton didn't say anything and kept walking but it was very strange. Then something strange happened, a car went out of control and headed towards where Anton was, he realised that the vehicle was out of control, decided to run away and managed to evade the car by very little, then, as if in a kind of illusion, the young man managed to see on the glass of the car a word that said "You got rid of the first robbery", with an incredulous and anguished look, Anton could not believe anything and went home. While his friend Flora was not going to have the same luck on his way home, walking along the pavement of the street, some workers from a building site dropped some tools from a fifth floor, one of them falling on Flora and mortally wounding the young man who, without knowing what was happening, felt that his life was slowly ebbing away. On arriving home Anton receives the news that his friend has had a serious accident and that he is in a very bad state of health. Distraught, he begins to cry, repeating over and over again.... It's all my fault... It's all my fault... Unaware of what was happening Anton decides to confront that evil darkness and begins to shout in an angry voice "come out of wherever you are I need to talk to you" he gets no response so he keeps repeating over and over again until he gets nothing for a long time he gets tired and begins to cry because he is so angry with himself.... At that moment some shoes fall off the shelf and he observes in detail how one of them starts to move, one of them goes flying towards the window and he gets up in surprise and decides to look out the window as if something wanted him to look out, After looking out he manages to see his friend standing in front of his house like some kind of illusion, he decides to run quickly to hug him, to his surprise when he leaves his house there is no one there and very surprised he decides to go inside and when he closes the door of his house he hears some steps in his room and he, scared to death, starts shouting "I'm going to go in". He is scared to death and starts shouting "Flora get out of there" he has no answer and decides to go by himself when he gets to the room he can't see anything and starts crying again until he he hears again that dark and scary voice "let's play again" Anton with a lot of rage shouts "what the hell do you want from me? Then the young man realises that what was there with him was nothing more than something dark that had been invoked by them the day of that night and that he did not know how to overcome or how to confront it, he was just scared and very nervous. This story will continue ...

(Ing/Esp) turn failure into motivation ** convertir el fracaso en motivación Everyone I hope you are having a great time over there? It's really nice to see you visit my blog today and I must say I'm really happy to have a great personality like you visiting my blog today. Thank you once again As you all know today is another lovely Monday and I'm quite sure everyone of you know what I do on Mondays like this. This is actually a part of the week I post motivational content just to brighten your day for the week and I hope you'll definitely feel motivated after reading this. Todos Espero que te lo estés pasando en grande allí. Es muy agradable verte visitar mi blog hoy y debo decir que estoy muy feliz de tener una gran personalidad como tú visitando mi blog hoy . Gracias una vez más. Como todos saben, hoy es otro lunes encantador y estoy bastante seguro de que todos saben lo que hago los lunes como este. En realidad, esta es una parte de la semana en la que publicó contenido motivacional solo para alegrar tu día de la semana y espero que definitivamente te sientas motivado después de leer esto. **Waking Up Reflecting About My Past Failures / Despertar reflexionando sobre mis fracasos pasados** I woke up this morning with a cute smile of happiness thanking God for another gift of life. I took my phone which has always been beside me whenever I sleep because it's definitely the last thing I visit before going to bed. I checked the time after waking up and it was almost quite early waking up at this time which may be due to the fact that I slept very early yesterday night. Anyways, I really had a very wonderful sleep since the weather was also favourable with that sense of cool air blowing around my room. I then decided to press my phone to check for new messages from my social media account, mails and people's comments from my blogs since I don't really want to get up from bed too early just trying to avoid some house chores, you should know what I mean. I had a drastic mood swing when I saw some memories shared by Facebook due to the pop up notification I received and it's really worths being called great memories indeed as Facebook claimed. The memory was about a Mathematical discovery I shared when it comes to solving partial fractions with linear fraction or expressions using cover up method. The Facebook comment I read also added more to my happiness this morning even though the post was over 3 years ago. Me desperté esta mañana con una linda sonrisa de felicidad agradeciendo a Dios por otro regalo de la vida. Cogí mi teléfono que siempre ha estado a mi lado cuando duermo porque definitivamente es lo último que visito antes de acostarme. Revisé la hora después de despertarme y era casi bastante temprano para despertarme a esta hora, lo que puede deberse al hecho de que dormí muy temprano ayer por la noche. De todos modos, realmente tuve un sueño maravilloso ya que el clima también fue favorable con esa sensación de aire fresco que soplaba alrededor de mi habitación. Luego decidí presionar mi teléfono para verificar si había nuevos mensajes de mi cuenta de redes sociales, correos electrónicos y comentarios de la gente de mis blogs, ya que realmente no quiero levantarme de la cama demasiado temprano solo para evitar algunas tareas domésticas, debes saberlo. lo que quiero decir. Tuve un cambio de humor drástico cuando vi algunos recuerdos compartidos por Facebook debido a la notificación emergente que recibí y realmente vale la pena que se les llame grandes recuerdos, como afirma Facebook. El recuerdo era sobre un descubrimiento matemático que compartí cuando se trata de resolver fracciones parciales con fracciones lineales o expresiones usando el método de encubrimiento. El comentario de Facebook que leí también agregó más a mi felicidad esta mañana a pesar de que la publicación fue hace más de 3 años. ***What Really Happened Back Then / Lo que realmente sucedió en ese entonces*** I could remember vividly around 2009 - 2010 I was still in secondary school back then. The truth is that I was one of the average students in my class back then such that my results were always average and sometimes below average. This really made me lost a lot of confidence in myself most especially when it comes to making new friends with some of my school mates. The intelligent ones are always walking around with themselves, playing and having fun with each other while i am always alone most of the time or probably chill out with just few friends of mine who happens to be below average in performance too just like I was too and I guess that's why they do say birds of a feather flock together. I used to see bright students as small gods who deserves to be worshiped most especially when it comes to Mathematics. Yes! Mathematics was really one of the subject I find very difficult to study or learn back then and this is why I see intelligent students solving mathematics as gurus or geniuses. I'm that kind of person who love and respect people who are more knowledgeable than me and I sometimes tend to imitate them back then probably maybe i could also be like them but I noticed it actually didn't work out for me. I just had to give up on imitating them since I found out that they don't really want people to be like them and I'm that kind of person who hates to be treated unjustly by my mates. Podía recordar vívidamente que alrededor de 2009-2010 todavía estaba en la escuela secundaria en ese entonces. La verdad es que yo era uno de los estudiantes promedio de mi clase en ese entonces, por lo que mis resultados siempre fueron promedio y, a veces, por debajo del promedio. Esto realmente me hizo perder mucha confianza en mí mismo, especialmente cuando se trata de hacer nuevos amigos con algunos de mis compañeros de escuela. Los inteligentes siempre están caminando con ellos mismos, jugando y divirtiéndose entre ellos mientras yo siempre estoy solo la mayor parte del tiempo o probablemente me relajo con unos pocos amigos míos que también están por debajo de la media en rendimiento, al igual que yo también. y supongo que por eso dicen que los pájaros del mismo plumaje vuelan juntos. Solía ​​ver a los estudiantes brillantes como pequeños dioses que merecen ser adorados, especialmente cuando se trata de matemáticas. ¡Sí! Las matemáticas eran realmente una de las asignaturas que me resultaba más difícil estudiar o aprender en ese entonces y es por eso que veo a los estudiantes inteligentes resolviendo matemáticas como gurús o genios. Soy ese tipo de persona que ama y respeta a las personas que tienen más conocimientos que yo y, a veces, tiendo a imitarlos en ese entonces, probablemente también podría ser como ellos, pero noté que en realidad no funcionó para mí. Tuve que renunciar a imitarlos desde que descubrí que realmente no quieren que la gente sea como ellos y yo soy ese tipo de persona que odia ser tratada injustamente por mis compañeros. ***Fast Forward to the Final Exam / Avance rápido al examen final*** I entered the school premises and I noticed everyone was a bit busy with lot of silent classes. The intelligent students were just running and walking up and down with their books. I began to develop some form of curiosity about what could be happening. I went straight into my close class room and I noticed people discussing about WAEC, some students were studying and treating past questions, some were discussing about how they can attend some tutorial just to pass their final examination. The fact is that I wasn't really moved by what was really happening though not until I asked one of my close friend about the sudden change in the school premises. He replied by telling me **"Adebola the exams are near and we are going to be sitting alone without any partner!!"**. After hearing that we will be sitting alone in the exam hall, I noticed my heart was beating very fast with lot of tension in my brain. I was like how will I do this? How am I going to pass? Where am I going to start reading from?... The truth is that I already gave up with zero confidence in me even before the exam date despite the fact that the exam date was fast approaching. I then decided to start reading my books when it was just a week to exam even though I already knew it was late and I can't really pass the exams but I just had to prepare myself since other students too were also preparing for their exams. I would read for like 5 minutes then I would start sleeping probably because I was just too lazy and I hate reading books back then. I wasn't able to cover up 5 - 10% of the examination syllabus and I only have only three - two days left for the exams but I just had to go with the flow to write down the little rubbish I read since it's already late for me to. When they brought in Mathematics question paper, it was like the sky was going to fall down that day. I never knew nor understand some of the questions as they really looked very ambiguous and difficult for me to solve. I solved the little I knew and I attempted some other questions too just to boost my chance of passing the exams. Entré a las instalaciones de la escuela y noté que todos estaban un poco ocupados con muchas clases silenciosas. Los estudiantes inteligentes simplemente corrían y caminaban de un lado a otro con sus libros. Comencé a desarrollar alguna forma de curiosidad sobre lo que podría estar sucediendo. Fui directamente a mi aula cercana y noté que la gente discutía sobre WAEC, algunos estudiantes estaban estudiando y tratando preguntas pasadas, algunos discutían sobre cómo pueden asistir a algún tutorial solo para aprobar su examen final. El hecho es que no estaba realmente conmovido por lo que realmente estaba sucediendo, aunque no hasta que le pregunté a un amigo cercano sobre el cambio repentino en las instalaciones de la escuela. Me respondió diciéndome **"Adebola, los exámenes están cerca y vamos a estar sentados solos sin ningún compañero".** . Después de escuchar que estaremos sentados solos en la sala de exámenes, noté que mi corazón latía muy rápido con mucha tensión en mi cerebro. Yo estaba como ¿cómo voy a hacer esto? ¿Cómo voy a pasar? ¿Desde dónde voy a empezar a leer? ... La verdad es que ya me rendí con cero confianza en mí incluso antes de la fecha del examen a pesar de que la fecha del examen se acercaba rápidamente. Entonces decidí comenzar a leer mis libros cuando solo faltaba una semana para el examen, aunque ya sabía que era tarde y realmente no podía aprobar los exámenes, pero tenía que prepararme ya que otros estudiantes también se estaban preparando para sus exámenes. . Leía unos 5 minutos y luego comenzaba a dormir, probablemente porque era demasiado vago y odio leer libros en ese entonces. No pude cubrir entre el 5% y el 10% del programa del examen y solo me quedan tres o dos días para los exámenes, pero tuve que seguir la corriente para escribir la pequeña basura que leí, ya que ya es tarde. Para mí. Cuando trajeron el cuestionario de matemáticas, fue como si el cielo se fuera a caer ese día. Nunca supe ni entendí algunas de las preguntas, ya que realmente me parecían muy ambiguas y difíciles de resolver. Resolví lo poco que sabía e intenté algunas otras preguntas también para aumentar mis posibilidades de aprobar los exámenes. **The Best Day of my Life / El mejor dia de mi vida** After completion of the exams, the results was out. I got messages from some of my friends checking their results. Some of them performed well and this also made me eager to check mine too since my parents were also pressurising me to show them my results. I checked my results and unfortunately my results were very poor and Mathematics was one of the core subject I failed woefully. This was also the best day of my life because this was also the day I discovered myself. My failure really made my parent depressed and ever since then I had a change in mindset towards life. It was that same day I decided to take my academics seriously and I started studying for longer period most especially when it comes to Mathematics. I began to develop that special interest in Mathematics such that I made a promise that I will always score A in every mathematics exam I took back then and it's really a great thing that with the help of God ***I had As in all my Mathematics exams*** no matter how difficult or bulky the Mathematics questions may look like. I'm proud and happy to tell you today that the average student whom most people thought he can never be a bright student is now one of the best student in a remarkable African institution in Africa. He is now someone some people are looking up to and this same young boy is now someone teaching other students today. ***This was actually possible because I turned my failure as a means of motivation to achieve my goals*** and all thanks to God for making it possible. Después de completar los exámenes, se publicaron los resultados. Recibí mensajes de algunos de mis amigos verificando sus resultados. Algunos de ellos se desempeñaron bien y esto también me hizo ansioso por revisar el mío, ya que mis padres también me estaban presionando para que les mostrara mis resultados. Verifiqué mis resultados y desafortunadamente mis resultados fueron muy pobres y Matemáticas fue una de las asignaturas centrales en las que fallé lamentablemente. Este también fue el mejor día de mi vida porque también fue el día en que me descubrí a mí mismo. Mi fracaso realmente deprimió a mis padres y desde entonces tuve un cambio de mentalidad hacia la vida. Fue ese mismo día que decidí tomar mis estudios académicos en serio y comencé a estudiar por un período más largo, especialmente cuando se trata de Matemáticas. Empecé a desarrollar un especial interés por las matemáticas tal que hice una promesa que siempre consiguen una puntuación en cada examen de matemáticas que tomé en aquel entonces y es realmente una gran cosa que con la ayuda de Dios ***que tenía Al igual que en todos los exámenes de mí Matemáticas*** sin no importa cuán difíciles o voluminosas puedan parecer las preguntas de Matemáticas. Estoy orgulloso y feliz de decirles hoy que el estudiante promedio que la mayoría de la gente pensó que nunca podría ser un estudiante brillante es ahora uno de los mejores estudiantes en una notable institución africana en África. Ahora es alguien a quien algunas personas están admirando y este mismo joven ahora es alguien que enseña a otros estudiantes hoy. ***Esto fue realmente posible porque convertí mi fracaso en un medio de motivación para lograr mis objetivos*** y todo gracias a Dios por hacerlo posible. **Important Lessons / Lecciones importantes** Never ever Give Up in Life. successful Believe in yourself and surround yourself with people who value you and not people who look down on your abilities. No matter how difficult things get, we must move on. We must learn the lessons that life teaches us and not repeat the same mistake again. ***Thank You for your time and I hope you have a great day ahead with love.*** Nunca te rindas en la vida. exitoso Cree en ti mismo y rodéate de personas que te valoren y no de personas que menosprecien tus habilidades. por muy difícil que se coloquen las cosas, debemos seguir adelante. aprender las lecciones que nos da la vida y no repetir nuevamente el mismo error. ***Gracias por tu tiempo y espero que tengas un gran día por delante con amor .***

All parents deserve to be pampered too *In a family everyone deserves to be pampered at least a little, today it is my dear husband's turn, partner and friend, that wonderful man who has accompanied me throughout these last years, as if it were not enough to dedicate every day to his daughter and me, also collaborating at home, no doubt I can not complain that unconditional person who knows how to make me feel good even in the worst moments, who knows how to spoil his daughter and at the same time put character, so I decided to make a small meeting and give him all that love that he gives us every day.* Our family nucleus is small, we are three, like the three musketeers we are always united and we go everywhere together, I dedicate this wonderful day to the man of the house, to that tireless companion who every day gives me his company and all his love, between glances we see each day and I know that when he sees me he feels the same as me, that special feeling, that desire to love and want to be loved, together we are always together and although like any couple sometimes we have hard times are more good times, although my husband does not like to take pictures I took several and so I can talk a little of this day. As if that wasn't enough, a few days ago it was also father's day and we couldn't do anything because we were working, so it was better to take this opportunity to celebrate, for my husband it wasn't a great day because his father was never there for him, he was always his mother and father at the same time, although he doesn't say anything I feel that he doesn't like to do anything on father's day because it doesn't bring him good memories, however I want to change that thought, we live such a short life that we must enjoy everything to the maximum just as a kiss is ephemeral so are the happy moments, that's why we must take the best of every moment and keep it in our hearts. My daughter as flirtatious as always even though she is 1 and a half years old she is very intelligent and knows how to attract attention, when I wanted to take the picture she stuck out her tongue and this was a picture for history, although later I wanted to repeat this same picture I could not get my daughter to pose again, because it was the day of the man of the house I decided to prepare an unusual meal, an exquisite dish of seafood with garlic which my husband loves and enjoys with total security, the best of all is that he did not expect that dish of food so it was a total surprise for him. To see his incredulous face was fantastic as it was something he really hadn't imagined, he knew it was a meeting between some cousins but he didn't know anything else. the surprise was not only in the food, also came a very special company a cousin that more than that seems a father to my husband, that man who helped him to get ahead, taking him out of the village where he was living and bringing him to the city to study, paying everything and without asking anything in return, not everyone does something like that and much less without being a direct connection, so my husband has high appreciation for him and more than that he admires him like no one else in the world. We all have someone to admire in my case, my mother for me is that person that I can identify as the wonder woman perhaps because of everything she had to do to get my sister and me ahead, just as it happens with my husband, he did not have his father since he was very young and he had to lead a life with just his mother and after several years his cousin also helped him, that same cousin who today looks so much like him, they have the same features and have similar temperaments, no doubt you would think that they are father and son but it is clear that they are not father and son. In times of distress that cousin has always been there, as I can remember it was that same cousin who helped him one day when my husband had an accident, that day was very traumatic as he had had an accident with a gas cylinder and had lost a finger, not knowing what to do and with all his family away from the city my husband had no choice but to look for his only close relative, what he did not expect was that his cousin would arrive so quickly at the clinic and to his surprise he was the one who took care of the operation that night. Thanks to the help that his cousin gave him that night my husband did not lose his finger and today he is the most grateful person on the planet, the kindness of many people is measured by their actions, for me, this cousin is a person with a big heart, to do what he did without having any purpose in return or double intention, just wanting to offer his help and also to be like a real father who helped him to orientate is also a great gesture. There were also other characters accompanying the rest of the day to my great king, the people in the photograph, are distant relatives of my husband, all were very happy to share and spend a pleasant time, time in which many stories and experiences were shared as part of the moment that way in which they relate things that are lived and that have served to grab experience, so all that knowledge of situations that at times were hard and others only ended in laughter is transmitted. In one of these situations mentioned was the story of one of his cousins in which he had to live a very sad moment to suffer strongly the symptoms of covid, luckily he managed to survive and his wife, although his parents did not have the same luck, that story was really heartbreaking for anyone is easy to see how your parents are decompensated and then end up dying the same day, a trauma not easy to process. another great story of the night was how a kidnapping attempt by bandits was thwarted for Mr. roberto, the person in orange in the photo, roberto says *"Everything seemed like a normal day, I went to work with the best will, after a stormy morning I decided to go out for a coffee when I got to the restaurant a man came up to me and told me that I was in a dangerous situation that I should leave the restaurant because some people were waiting to capture me, what I found strange about all this is why did he take the trouble to tell me that? So I decided to go to the bathroom and put on my jacket and a cap, after a few moments I went out again and sat down in another place, after several minutes, two very suspicious men came in and they only looked towards the table where I was sitting before, they arrived as they didn't manage to find me, they left, Although everything did not stop there, I had to be alert after leaving the restaurant and I called a friend who is a policeman who made me file a complaint and since then I am in contact with two agents who took the case, the strangest thing is that I did not manage to recognise any of the people, without a doubt that puzzles me*". What I leave as a reflection is that life has become much more difficult every day, taking care of ourselves is the daily routine and as if that were not enough, now we have to take care even of the same people, we should not trust everyone and much less go around saying what are the incomes of each person, everything should be handled with discretion if you want to live a little more than the account. Here my two babies and their cousin, all about to try my great food, I prepared with great care, I'm not an excellent cook but I can say that at least I like my food to the people I love the most, all ended up very happy with this plate of food, my husband and his first ended up repeating and ate to no end, I must say that all this preparation was not only mine also was with me a great person my unique and special friend, who helped me to prepare everything and that everything was great. besides the seafood dish, it was also accompanied by a caesar salad and as an opening dish, a celery cream, everything was really fantastic. I know that lately I have not been able to set up more blog, it has been difficult for me because of my work and the times I have free time I dedicate it to my family so I have little time to write which I like a lot, I like it because it helps me to keep my ideas organized and it is also like a kind of diary, I will try not to miss so much and yes to my dear readers, I miss you guys take care and God bless you. "From the bottom of my heart, you should take care of what you love the most, not only for the fact of loving it, but also for the fact of losing it, we can't always have what we most want in this life, so enjoy what you have and if you really love it, dedicate all your time to it, keep in mind that it is the only thing that is really worth it, maybe you haven't thought about it but time is the only thing we can't take back and to those who we decide to dedicate this precious treasure is because it is really worth it".

Magitek: The definition of a smart contract is dumb. The only thing that makes a smart contract is simply an inefficient database that multiple nodes validate within the network. This is the only context required. If multiple copies of cloned code stay in consensus between servers, this is DLT: Distributed Ledger Technology. It's just a database network that contains 2 or more (hopefully many more) redundant servers. Redundancy In the UK redundancy is synonymous with being "laid off". The company can no long justify your lack of profitability to the company. Through no fault of your own: Nothing personal, it's just business. These things happen. Already right out of the gate it becomes obvious why the legacy economy doesn't understand crypto. They see the redundancy and they think: that will never work. They don't realize the inefficiency is a feature and not a bug. We've been programmed this way by a lifetime of cutthroat capitalism and brutal competition. Lower overhead. Higher output. More productivity. Scaling up. Dog eat dog. A system of cooperation makes no sense to most people who have been living the opposite reality for a lifetime. So a smart contract is really just some tables in a database. Generic platforms like Ethereum have a lot of loopholes trying to cater to the ERC-20 toolkit. Flash-loans are a serious problem that leech more value from the network than they give. Needing to work within the confines of someone else's toolbox is not easy. There's are many attack vectors and the hackers are built in: constantly sniffing out new/weak projects. Testing the defenses. This is why I'm trying to build something that isn't connected to a hacker's paradise like ETH or BSC. Building on those networks comes with a lot of risk and reward. The reward is you get to tap into billions of dollars of liquidity and create atomic swap links to every other token on the network. The downside is you are constantly under attack by black hats that have been honing their skills for years before you even got there. But again, the biggest downside when using someone else's toolkit is that you get trapped into the tiny little box that's been built for you. Not only that, the more people who build on ETH, the more bogged down the network will become as every node attempts to run every smart contract across every token. Sharding is supposed to fix this but I've already been talking about sharding/plasma upgrades for YEARS and it's still not ready. The centralized development of the Ethereum Foundation is a huge setback https://ecency.com/ethereum/@edicted/plasma-ethereum-s-lightning-network magitek https://ecency.com/hive-167922/@edicted/magitek-tokenomics So I'm still tediously grinding away on my own project. Slowly learning the ins and outs of MySQL relational databases. Procedures, Functions, Triggers, Indexes, Tables, Views, Select/Update statements, yada yada yada. Yesterday I got my spellbook table up and running. The spellbook allows one resource to be destroyed and another resource to be created out of thin air. I've decided to get rid of the referral code that incentives frontends to get users to cast ChainLightning and give them 10% of the aether created. At the end of the day I don't want frontend nodes to have a financial incentive to instruct users to make a poor financial decision that nets them a 10% bonus. That's a slippery slope. I've also gotten rid of the ability for ChainLightning (destroying HBD to @null) to create 2 assets (aether/lightning). Now all spells are one to one. One input one output: makes it a lot easier to code and manage. So destroying HBD only creates lightning, but I've upgraded the Nova ability (lightning >> aether) so that it will be the most cost effective spell to get aether at launch (which is the main way to farm the governance token mana). https://ecency.com/@null Arbitrage Spells are a game of arbitrage. For the most part, we don't want people to cast any spells unless the network is extremely off balance. There will be an "Alchemy" tab where users trade resources to and from mana/fire/lightning/ice via "potions". Each potion is just an AMM LP pool (mana/fire, mana/lightning, mana/ice) that can be traded with associated fees and slippage costs. Mixing a potion allows users to dump their assets into the vault and receive POT tokens (short for potion/potency): Magitek's version of LP tokens (Liquidity Pool)(Liquid Potency). Couldn't resist a double entendre of the stoner reference. Get them pot tokens, fam. Cache The Cache is Magitek's version of CubFinance Dens or GooseFinance Nests. It's just a farm with a single asset that farms outside of the LPs so users don't have to put their tokens up for sale. There are 4 caches (mana/fire/lightning/ice), each of which will be allocated inflation (mana) just like the three other potions available in Alchemy. Prophecy Prophecy is an extension of the cache. It is the futures market. All 'power' (tokens) stored in the cache act as collateral for the futures market. Using prophecy, anyone will be able to create any amount of mana/fire/lightning/ice out of thin air as long as they have enough collateral to do so. This will allow for some pretty amazing stuff. For starters, because the only way to create fire is to destroy Hive (1 Hive for 1000 Fire), minting fire and dumping it on the market will allow users to essentially short Hive itself because Fire is a derivative of Hive. Fire is Magitek's only deflationary asset. We can assume that at best only a couple million Hive would get destroyed permanently to own fire. This will make it a pretty rare asset and the mana/fire potion pool will be a very risky high-yield pool that pairs two volatile assets. The more Hive that gets destroyed the more value both Fire and Hive will gain. The only way to create Ice (the stable token) is through this process of prophecy (CDP smart-loan contracts). This means that a ton of mana, fire, and lightning collateral will have to be locked in the cache as collateral in order to mint this stable asset. Interestingly enough, I'm much more worried about the peg breaking to the upside rather than breaking to the downside. Prophecy is the most risky part of Magitek with the most attack vectors. To start we are going to use witness price feeds and ASSUME that fire has an equivalent value to Hive. This oracle could easily be exploited in certain contexts and perhaps markets could be manipulated to crash the perceived value of cache collateral and liquidate the loans. This is why the network needs to set the `multiplier_collateral` setting in the gov table very high (currently x5). It will require x5 more collateral to mint Ice than the Ice is actually worth... and this safety precaution could moon the value of the stable coin... which would be bad. Luckily there are many other ways to tame the price of Ice. Ice modifiers ice bolt ice block collateral required collateral liquidate ice den fire/lit/mana den Ice Bolt and Ice Block are spells the network can cast in case shit really hits the fan. They are a last resort and signal to the network that major governance votes need to happen to change the other variables. Ice Bolt allows mana to be converted to Ice, which is great to stop the price of Ice from breaking to the upside, but terrible if the price of mana is crashing and that crash also caused the stable coin to break to the downside. Ice Block is the counter to Ice Bolt. With Ice Block, users will be able to convert Ice into Aether, which again, is the best way to farm mana on a daily basis. Every day all aether gets destroyed and a user's percent ownership of the aether is converted into mana. The `multiplier_collateral` variable is the main way to manipulate the price of Ice. Need Ice value to go down? Reduced the collateral required to mint it. Need it to go up? Increase the collateral. The liquidation variable probably won't get moved much. In general we want liquidations to happen very rarely (if ever if we can avoid it). Unfortunately, like I said, Prophecy oracles will most obvious attack vector so we need to keep collateral requirements high at first to make sure the system is stable. The last way to manipulate the value of ice is when cache yields. If we increase the yield on ice cache this will raise the price because users will buy Ice to farm the cache. If yield on mana/fire/lightning is increased this allows users to profitably shove funds into the cache than can then be used to mint more Ice, reducing the price. Notice anything? There are no interest rates. This would be another way to manipulate the price but as I have stated before the way MakerDAO does business is exploitative and nonsensical: you don't charge users interest on a loan that's collateralized by over 100%. Again: deflationary economics are incorrect. I've come up with much better solutions to these problems. To be fair: DeFi invented them I'm just putting all the pieces together. https://ecency.com/hive-167922/@edicted/more-on-why-decreased-inflation-equates-to-a-lower-token-price Governance On Magitek, it will possible for dozens of variables to be changed on the fly with the sliding-scale voting system I have described in detail. Already there are 32 variables within the system can can be tweaked by the community using this voting technique. https://ecency.com/hive-167922/@edicted/hive-governance-tug-of-war-sliding-scale-voting Every day every account will have the ability to vote for a variable to go in one direction or the other (or neutral). In order for the number to actually change the next day, the votes in that direction must first be higher than threshold barrier (which can also be changed) in addition to being higher than the sum of the other direction + neutral votes. This makes neutral voting (no change) the strongest vote one can make, as they count twice against movement in any direction. In fact, now that I think about it, I might add an actual vote multiplier that makes neutral voting worth even more in order to encourage conservative voting and less changes to the system. Maintaining balance By being able to manipulate everything this gives the network the ability to maintain stability. One of the primary goals will be to stabilize the value of Ice. Doing this should in turn moon the value of mana because most ice will be overcollateralized by mana itself. For each dollar worth of ice (1000 ice = $1) there will be multiple dollars of mana locked in the cache to support this value. By also increasing the yield that the mana cache farm generates should also moon the price if the price dips lower than the targets set by the network. Noob Alert! My code is shit and it needs to be tested a refactored quite a bit. I am a novice MySQL programmer and a novice JavaScript/Node.JS programmer. The code isn't going to be pretty. In fact I've already rewritten several newbie things that I did in the beginning. Once I actually have a working product my focus will be to stop developing outwardly and turn inward to security, cleaning up the code, documentation, and decentralization so other people on Hive can start running the database themselves. The firewall Because the code will inevitably be so flawed to start, we will be operating in a void so if shit really hits the fan we can shut in down until the problem is solved. On networks like ETH and BSC if you fuck up your liquidity gets drained and you lose all of your ETH/BNB. By isolating in the void there is no liquidity to steal and we remain in 100% control during the alpha testing phase. The only way to remove value from Magitek in the beginning will be after I write a bot that allows anyone to sell Fire back into Hive to anyone looking to enter the network for a discount. 1 Hive will get you 1000 Fire, so fire can never be worth more than Hive. This will allow users to set up discounts for those who would like to cash out a bit. Passing through the firewall will be the only way to exit the system, assuming there are users on the outside looking to get in at a discount. This should largely prevent the value of fire from breaking the peg to Hive from the downside as a kind of pressure valve (god forbid a "steam" valve). It allows fire to escape the network without new users having to create more and dilute the price. The system I'm thinking about setting up to this affect is selling Hive into Fire at a 1%-10% discount, while selling Fire into Hive at an 11%-20% fee. Users who try to exit Magitek will be hit with a huge fee (11%-20%) while users trying to enter will get a 1%-10% discount depending on supply and demand at the time. Once all the Fire is gone from these makeshift fire-escapes users will then be forced to burn more Hive by sending it to @null. https://ecency.com/@null **Lightning** While fire is an extremely scarce deflationary asset, Lightning is the opposite of this: a massively abundant resource who's value may even decrease over time. There will be many ways to create lightning and it will be used to pay for things like minting NFTs and creating proxies and the majority of other payments within the network. For the most part, lightning will be the main entry-point to the system, and burning stable coin assets from other networks will be the way to mint more. There will also be a cannibalistic Lightning Bolt spell available that will allow mana to be destroyed to create more lit in case mana dips too low in value and we need to burn our own tokens. Again, the goal is stability. When the network is doing well and everyone is happy, we burn the tokens of other networks (only Hive/HBD to start). When the market crashes into the dirt we start cannibalizing our own tokens and liquidity to get back up to our long-term price targets. The ultimate goal is for mana itself to be stable due to its hyperinflationary nature (100% inflation per year target). Theoretically we can keep the value of mana itself stable just by properly adjusting inflation rates and setting reasonable price targets. Reducing the inflation makes price go down, increasing inflation makes price go up (unless price targets are incorrect). https://ecency.com/hive-167922/@edicted/more-on-why-decreased-inflation-equates-to-a-lower-token-price **Conclusion** Alright well this post is entirely too long. Time to kill it. So far all my math seems to work but there are a lot of bugs (I assume) waiting to be found. Currently I'm working more on the governance voting, as I've realized this needs to be complete before I start field-testing. Again, the biggest attack vector here are the oracles and more specifically the witness price feed. Magitek isn't going to verify blocks independently, and will need to trust the information it receives from other nodes (validating the same info multiple times across multiple Hive full-nodes). By the time I'm ready to launch my witness team will be running a full node so that will also help validate the system. The key from there is to get more Magitek nodes up and running verified by the community. We may have to set up proxy derivative-blocks and derivative block-rewards as well to eventually pivot into a real second-layer solution. Alright time to get back to it. So much work.

faith is the last thing to be lost https://pixabay.com/images/id-690174/ During a rainy day, where only provoked to drink a bottle of rum that warmed the bones, I decided to go to a bar, when I arrived there was a man sitting with a worried and sad face, I could not help but sit next to him and talk to him, maybe I could help in something and thus prevent him from feeling better, I ordered my first drink and invited one to the fellow next to me, who accepted and said "thank you" at that moment the conversation began, that nice man began to talk and I decided to be somewhat abusive and ask if everything was all right? He answered simply: "Everything is fine! At least I have faith that everything will be fine! After all, for me, even if my day has been the worst, it is still good, even if everything in my life is upside down, I have faith that everything will change again. It was rude of me to ask like that, that man was not there for someone to listen to his sorrows, he was just waiting for his life to make sense again, at least I understood that. After having some drinks I decided to go on my way, it was one of those hard days and my body was already feeling tired, before I had to have some dinner and then go home, cooking? no way, I arrived to that cafe where I always went to buy dinner, my friend Leti was there, she greeted me in a nice way and asked me how was my day? my answer was very explicit, great! I just want to get home, take a shower and go to bed, how was your day? Leti looked at me and answered, "It wasn't my best day, the accounts are not good and the business is going from bad to worse, I have faith that everything will change soon". I said goodbye and left the place, when I was arriving at my house, there was a man lying on the cold floor who I used to see always in the street, I ended up stopping and started a conversation with him, his name was Antonilli, he was from an Italian family and I was curious, an Italian man living as a beggar is not normal, so I asked again, what is he doing in a place like this? Mr. Antonilli, Son, when you are my age you understand so many things that if I had understood them years ago I wouldn't be like this. I was a man with a lot of money, from a very young age I always had luxuries, I ate in expensive restaurants, I went out with wealthy people who only thought about luxuries, living a life out of the ordinary, what I could not understand is that despite leading the life I had before and having everything I had I did not feel that it fulfilled me, I did not feel joy and much less that I was happy. for years I spent my fortune, with the life I led I don't think I was over 30 years old, after many bad decisions I ended up losing a large part of the shares of my company, I could have acted better and I didn't want to, I simply decided to leave everything like that, to continue leading the life I led with no direction, no destination, no family, no woman waiting for me every night, at times I felt so lonely that not even having a thousand people by my side could have changed that feeling, after 18 years of luxuries and material things, I ended up losing the little "faith" I had to return to the path of good, when I realized what I had lost, it was too late, my actions, my wealth, everything I had lost, even worse, I did not get to have what does not cost money and is worth a lot, a family. I am now 58 years old, living on the streets for only 9 years, less than a month ago, a relative came looking for me, my father left me a fortune after he passed away, I didn't want to go and claim anything, being born into wealth made me miss out on so many things, the good thing about leading a quiet life like the one I lead today, is that every day for me is different, every day I live it as my last, I have nothing that can tie me down. My life is told like a story, from top to bottom, that is to say, from someone who had everything to someone who practically still has everything, do you know what I mean? money was never the problem, the problem was in my lifestyle and the way of thinking I had, at the end of this story everything is positive for me, I don't want to go back to owning something material that can control me. Son money is not a bad idea but it is not the best idea either, happiness is somewhere else, it is in ourselves, searching for many is difficult and impossible for others, clearly those people who do not manage to find this happiness is because they are of little faith and end up suffering from the syndrome of the enclosed fish, they spin in the same place all their lives. *** Listening to every word of that stranger and giving me like a dagger in every part of my being, were two equal things, if it is true that my days of routines are part of what I call life, although now I ask myself the question again is it life to live the routine? I see everything with different eyes after hearing all that, certainly I can not expect to say that my life is fine, if every day is the same, if I have nothing to long for and enough faith to hold on to that dream. Nothing happens by chance, everything made sense to me. The next day after a hard day's work, I decided to go to the bar, there was a friend of mine and I shared some time with her, we talked about different topics, I felt a kind of connection with her, I had felt it before, but this time I was living in the now and I wanted to let myself be carried away by the moment. We spent more than 2 hours talking, the time passed so fast that we didn't notice, after enjoying a nice time, I invited her to dinner, this time in a different place, I wanted to try something new, for the first time in 8 years I had broken my daily routine, I felt strange for a moment, after a while I was adapting to the change, I was adapting to the change, it helped me to be able to do it with someone, from there began a transformation in my being, I had marked a before and after, now I felt the desire to start a family, to constantly change my mind that routine and above all I learned to have faith in my life to believe even though I do not know or understand anything. What lies in the faith of those who do not believe is the ability to accept that which is intangible and make it one's own. Until another opportunity dear readers, we are waiting for the continuation of my first story. chapter 1 https://read.cash/@Amorporelllano/--6970950f

Destiny (beyond reality) For many years the llanero has been characterised for being a beast tamer, they are not afraid to ride an animal that they are not used to, in this way the llanero demonstrates his manhood, not everyone has this ability, for the llanero it is something common to be able to do it. But beyond what we can see is the man who has a great heart and that forms a bond that prevails for many years, the llanero and his horse, the horse will be half of the man, becoming one and forming an alliance that remains until death separates them, so is the story of many llanero, so is the story of Juan Luis Florencio, and his horse "the rock". The story of these two begins one month of December everything seemed normal, Juan Luis was doing his duties as usual, cleaning the harvest and plowing to continue sowing, after finishing his work he went to the pasture where he found a mare in labor, that animal was lying unable to give birth, Juan in his experience knew that if he did not help her everything would end badly, so he decided to help the animal to give birth, to his surprise it was very big, black in colour and with white spots on its four legs, a beautiful foal, but the surprise was not that, but the death of the mare, it was so hard to give birth to the animal that she was exhausted and ended up suffering. Juan took that innocent foal and without knowing what had happened he took it home and began to clean it with a cloth, Juan knew that the chances of the foal's life were slim, so he just tried to take care of it and see what happened. All the rest of that day Juan dedicated himself to taking care of the foal, even though he knew he didn't have much of a chance, he looked for freshly milked milk and began to feed it with a teat from one of his youngest sons, little by little the animal was eating, for Juan there was still a chance that the animal could survive so that night was also long for both of them. The next morning, Juan began to notice that the foal was lying on the ground, scared thinking the worst, he approached the animal and placed the palm of his hand on its back, the foal was burning with fever, Juan quickly realised that he had to do something or he would end up losing the animal, he looked for ice in the fridge, he placed it on the animal and began to rub it for a long time, He searched among the animal medicines and got some antibiotic, somehow he had to stop the infection, he gave a very low dose and began to feed the colt again, he decided not to do any work on the farm and dedicate all that time to the colt, what seemed strange is that Juan was feeling a special feeling for that horse because it was not normal so much dedication for a beast that at any moment could die. Somehow Juan felt that he had to take care of the animal, even if his chances were slim, "he decided to stay by his side, what they both didn't know is that they have a long way to go together". After two very hard days the colt began to see improvement, he had a better countenance as they say in the plain and he could get up by himself and move faster, Juan knew that somehow that colt had been as hard as a rock, so he named him "the rock", as the days went by, the colt that seemed to have no future was becoming one of the most splendid animals, in his first three months of life, he was a strong and hard colt, "it seemed" that nothing could tame him, but only seemed.... Juan was there watching very closely the path of that colt felt great pride for having saved him and much more for the great beast he was becoming, the bond between them was special, "The rock" every morning left the paddock where he grazed and went straight to where Juan was, no matter where he was on the ranch he would arrive, something out of the ordinary among animals. One day Juan had to go out to town for supplies, he took a horse that he used to saddle and then set off for his destination, what he didn't know was that "the rock" was going to follow him all the way. When Juan realized that the colt was following him he decided to stop and try to make the colt return, although it did not have much effect as it did not listen, he had no choice but to go ahead with the colt by his side, when he arrived at the village he caused a sensation, all the people were amazed by that animal, young and majestic, many approached and began to shout, (Juan, sell me that horse), but they received no response from Juan, after buying everything he needed to take to his home, Juan noticed that the colt wanted to help him, it seemed strange behaviour so he approached the animal, and this ended by sinking his two front legs, as in a kind of offering, Juan did not know what to do took the horse by his hair and back and began to speak softly in his ear "get up, get up quietly ..." the animal again got up and began to talk softly in his ear. ..." the animal stood up again and stared at Juan and placed his head so that he could continue to give caresses, that bond was growing every day. (they both felt that they could not be without each other and somehow Juan was loving this animal like a son). On the way to the ranch "the rock" was walking next to Juan and the other horse, while they were walking the colt began to run and Juan observed him as if he wanted to show him something, that animal ran and returned, ran and returned, it was like that almost all the way, Juan had not put the saddle, first, because he was very young and second, because any animal that is not accustomed to the saddle is very delicate. The next day Juan decided to put a rope on the colt to get him used to the saddle, he got up very early, drank coffee and went out to the paddock where "the rock" was grazing with other animals, at first everything seemed simple, it was easy for Juan to approach the colt but he did not know if he was going to let him put the rope on him. When he was far enough away to tie up the animal, when he felt the rope fall on his back, he started jumping and kicking all over the place, the lesson of the day was plain to see, Juan understood how difficult it was going to be to ride the colt and above all to get used to the saddle, it had only been the rope and the colt had escaped, what would it be for the rest. Juan had understood that all was not the moment, that colt was very young and it was not going to be easy to be able to tame him, he had to wait for the force of maturity to reach him, although for Juan also the time is running out, the end animal that he had always saddled was old and tired, he had to give him rest, because his days were numbered. As expected Juan had taken the decision and went to the paddock to look for revenge again, but this time he was prepared, he was carrying a fruit that the colt liked very much, the mango, a highly nutritious fruit with many vitamins, besides being highly nutritious it is also tasty, the colt loved this fruit and Juan carried a letter under the table to place the rope. When the time came, Juan approached the colt and took out the fruit (mango) the colt quickly approached without any fear and Juan placed his hand on his neck and with his other hand placed the rope, the rock felt the rope but was not inhibited and continued to enjoy the mango, after finishing eating the fruit, he realized that he was already tied and that there was no other choice but Juan was even smarter and took with him many more fruits, so it was until he reached the ranch house and so simple had fallen "the rock". For several weeks Juan continued to do the same routine, creating a habit in the animal, as the days went by he continued to repeat the same behaviour without the need for the fruit, although everything seemed simple, the most difficult part was still to be done, placing the saddle and mounting the horse. So the work was just beginning, Juan understood something that he had not noticed before, animals do feel and also develop affection, between Juan and that horse there was a kind of union, perhaps for the colt Juan was a kind of "mother" or "father", since he was the one who took care of him since his birth. But beyond that, he was the one who had always been there. So Juan tried something that was going on unconsciously, mutual love. He started to touch the horse's back again and then placed his ear on his chest as if he wanted to listen to something, Juan thought that "the rock" would jump or something like that but no, his response was contrary and passive, for the colt it was normal for Juan to approach him and he didn't see it as a threat. He quickly placed the saddle on the back of the colt and suddenly everything was silent, as if nature was waiting for something to happen, Juan placed his foot in the stirrup and quickly mounted the horse, several scenarios could happen, the most common was that the animal would end up knocking Juan down but this did not happen that way, on the contrary Juan had been accepted by "the rock" and that day again the unexpected had happened. (unexpected things kept happening in this story, as well as one that not even the most wizard of history would have been able to predict). One night the paddock, everything seemed the same as any night, the darkness was total, you could not see more than 1 meter away, "the rock" had become a horse, with him had also come the honor of being the leader among the horses of the place and therefore the horse that will be responsible for watering his seed to expand its lineage, "The rock" sensed that something was lurking and had to be alert, his body so perceived his senses were not crazy, he knew that something was watching as if waiting for the right time to attack, Suddenly in seconds he heard an eerie sound, the whole paddock looked like a place of war, all the horses that were in that place began to run in all directions without knowing where they were going contal to run, "the rock" tries to observe what happens and suddenly there he was in front of him, "Death" or at least that's what they called that feline, immense with a putrid smell and with huge teeth and eyes that could paralyze anyone with fear but, for a horse like the rock there was no cowardice, he had defeated death once and he was ready to try his luck again, In the second the feline lunged at the rock and it ended up kicking the horse shaking its two front legs and the feline without being able to do more damage kept its distance waiting for the rock to get distracted, something that was not going to happen so easily, while in the ranch Juan, Juan felt a hunch and went out to the yard to look towards the paddock and heard the sounds of animals and ran out to get the weapon, loaded the gun and went to the tractor towards the paddock, thinking a thousand things and scared Juan feared the worst, that his soul friend was dead or badly wounded or that some of the beasts were wounded or dead, As he gets closer to the place he hears the screams of a horse, there was still in the middle of the fight "the rock" was alive and harder than ever, that feline had barely caused the horse to tire a little so he had no choice but to leave, then Juan arrives and fires shots in the air to finish the attack of the animal, Juan is happy to see his friend completely healthy and feels relieved not to be late, on the other hand, he knows that this was just beginning, a feline had arrived in the area and was not going to rest until it killed one of his animals, so he had to prepare himself better and redouble his guard if he wanted to safeguard the lives of all. To be continued... "This story was born from the pen of my mind, I hope you like it".

assisted therapy (animals to the rescue of human health) These last few days, while helping a person to attend therapy, I was able to learn a little more about assisted therapy, for me excellent in the first place, the way in which animals can collaborate with humans and benefit is further proof that animals have a unique healing power over us, and that dependence always ends up winning in all cases. The therapies and intervention assisted with animals have experienced a great increase by professionals, both dogs, horses and some farm animals, end up becoming companion animals, forming a synergistic relationship with a person, in recent years has been shown to have greater effectiveness in occupational therapy, helping in an incredible way in the skills and abilities of people, how? helping in favor of a better integration into society. For many years, animals and humans have lived together, even unintentionally, we have lived with different kinds of animals. However, their interactions and the quality of these interactions have evolved over time, mainly due to biological, psychological and socio-cultural factors. As a result, the relationships between them have become increasingly complex, moving from primary, purely trophic needs to more elaborate forms with psychological or emotional implications. Today, as everyone knows, the multiple physical, social and mental benefits of interactions and environments facilitated by animals are indisputable. In fact, these were already present in therapeutic contexts, long before documented scientific evidence was available. In this sense, one of the areas where the efficacy of animal-assisted intervention is most proven is in occupational therapy because, thanks to it, the professional can find new formulas to achieve the maximum functionality of the people he or she works with. So, knowing that animals can be of great help to humans, we will ask ourselves, what is an animal-assisted intervention? Animal Assisted Interventions (AAI) involve the participation of animals in therapeutic or educational interventions with the aim of improving health or education and human welfare. AAI are programmes designed to promote physical, social, emotional, educational or cognitive improvements in the person; directed, developed and evaluated by a health or education professional. On the other hand, it is also good to know what kind of animals are suitable for this? Nowadays we work with different kinds of animals: dogs, horses, dolphins, cats, parrots, rabbits, etc. Each animal has its own characteristics that we must take into account when choosing which animal we are going to work with in each project. I personally like to work with dogs, as they are animals that are perfectly integrated into society and are of a size that facilitates access to the centres. For those people who think about whether it is with a particular breed? There is no specific breed of dog for therapy; we select very sociable dogs, that like contact with people, with a very balanced character, that do not show aggression in any situation, with good motivation and willingness to please and with an appearance that inspires confidence. Among the breeds, the most commonly used are Golden and Labrador Retriever and, as a small dog, the Cavalier King Charles. Now that we know the benefits of animals and that it does not depend on any specific breed, we ask ourselves the question: What kind of interventions can an animal participate in? An animal can participate in therapy sessions - physiotherapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, psychology, etc. - directed by a health professional; in education sessions, directed in this case by an education professional; and animal-assisted activities, which do not contemplate defined objectives for each session and which include a more spontaneous and playful content, but which provide us with an opportunity to improve the quality of life of a person, providing motivational and recreational benefits. The presence of the animal creates a more relaxed and relaxed therapeutic or educational environment. The animal makes the patient feel more comfortable and this facilitates the relationship with the therapist. It has been proven that animals facilitate social relations between people. They are also a multisensory stimulus, it is pleasant to pet them and their graces make us smile. We share this very touching photo with the intention of informing you how contact with animals helps. We see it every day when people come for treatment and book therapeutic and family activities to improve anxiety, stress, bonding and much more. Marion (24), who has metastatic cancer son Ethan (7) in the presence of Peyo, a horse used in animal-assisted therapy, in the animal-assisted therapy at the Palliative Care Unit Séléne Palliative Care Unit at the Centre Hospitalier de Calais, in Calais, France. Animal-assisted therapy, also known as pet therapy, is used in many clinical settings, especially in psychological therapy and palliative care. Animals seem to be able to reduce anxiety and stress, and also have physical effects, such as lowering blood pressure, improving heart rate or helping to control pain. In hospice, the aim is to use the natural bond between humans and animals to provide comfort humans and animals to provide comfort, peace and companionship to terminally ill patients. terminally ill patients. The horses seem particularly suitable for palliative care palliative care, as they are they are particularly attuned to their environment. Peyo works with his trainer Hassen Hassen Bouchakou at Les Sabots du Coeur, an organisation dedicated to animal-assisted therapy animal-assisted therapy and scientific research on the subject. It supports about 20 patients each month, and scientists are now studying its instinctive ability to detect cancers and tumours. Translated with www.DeepL.com/Translator (free version) https://youtu.be/VgXYFnwguj8 In short, animals manage to capture the attention of patients, they are a topic of conversation and are highly motivating, achieving the objectives more quickly and, above all, in a more pleasant way.

Real testimonials from people who have overcome destitution. hello dear friends of read.cash today I want to share a very sensitive and notorious point not only in my country, but also in a great part of the world (homelessness). every day public spaces become traps and citizens increasingly take measures of personal protection. The homeless seem to be the only people unconcerned about this threat. It is common to observe once upper and middle class citizens, not to mention the lower class, being homeless, sleeping in the light of day on public streets in total tranquility, happy in the immunity of misery. People who have had to live in the shadow of vice, or victims of mental insanity. These people live from day to day, invisible in the eyes of society, forced to beg for money at traffic lights, rummage through garbage and sleep wherever the night takes them. A reality very difficult to conceive by their fellow citizens. This situation of survival does not worry the homeless, since they are the only Venezuelans who do not fear the scourge of robbery. With old clothes and no shoes, these people live their dreary days rejected, unknown by a self-styled ''protective'' government. And it is precisely this lack that places them in a favorable situation compared to the rest of Venezuelans who walk the streets fearful of being stripped of their clothes or mobile equipment.It is therefore ironic that the most socially adapted citizen is the slave of possessions, of material goods that make him an easy prey for criminals. In this society where those who strive to obtain their property are condemned to live in anguish. I had the opportunity to meet this character, a man common to everyone living in destitution for several years, "the madman" has a real name (Jose Luis Valvuena) a man who by economic problems and very close family losses, ended up going off the rails by surrendering to total destitution, not for that reason he is a "crazy" as many wrongly call him, on the contrary, Jose shows sanity, and also remorse, Jose in spite of not having to eat, the little he gets he gives it to the birds, feeding every day and being aware of them, somehow this person seeks to be what he once was, only that the lack of therapy with specialist to guide and vindicate him does not exist for him. Another story that I also had the opportunity to hear firsthand was that of Luis Alejandro Araujo, an elderly man who wanted to narrate practically his day to day life. Alejandro tells his heartbreaking process of physical and psychological deterioration with an energy and vitality that makes you think that it hurts more when you are treated with compassion than anything else. And his words give no respite. Was there a moment of happiness? "I assure you, daughter, no. (...) Sunshine and spring are for everyone, but in some circumstances they become torture." And love? "When you live on the street, every love story is a story of pain." -What is the first night on the street like? -The first night on the street you don't realize you're on the street. You don't have money to go to a pension or to a friend's house, you hang out in the place you are without knowing what you're waiting for and you get laid without sleeping a wink. You are without a penny in your pocket, with just enough wine to last the night, with four cigarette butts, shivering from the cold... completely destroyed. -Do you think it's just for one night? -No, I was aware that it was that night and the following ones. What you don't imagine is that it's going to be eternal, that it's going to last forever. It seems as if you were waiting for a miracle, although I knew I had no resources and I was aware that I was alcoholic. -Is there a moment when you stop waiting for the miracle? -Yes, that moment comes. When you've been there for a few years... -Years? -Yes, years. When you've only been there for half a year, you're still approached by people you know or who see the situation you've reached and recommend that you go to Caritas or go to some kind of social assistance. But when you manage to get some help to reintegrate and detoxify, you realize that the drama you are carrying and the situation you are in is such that you cannot accept any help. You experience everything that happens to you through your fucked up state of mind and you tell yourself that, whatever you do, you are not going to be what you were, to have the job you had, to have the relationships you had... So you let yourself be dragged along, the years go by and you realize that your place is going to be on the street. You lose hope. -How important is alcohol in this process? -Alcohol is determinant to fall into the street and also to endure in it, to endure the memories that torture you. You become an alcoholic without realizing it. And the more obvious the situation in which you find yourself, the worse you become. It becomes like a fish that bites its own tail. -What is the city like for a homeless person? -It's all hostile. You realize that you are a nuisance to people, that you make them uncomfortable. Not to mention if you approach them, even with all the good manners in the world, to ask them for a handout. Not even in my worst nightmares had it crossed my mind to see myself like that. Visually, by the way you look, poorly dressed and with long hair and beards, you are already worthy of suspicion. -Does this suspicion seem normal to you? -It's not fair, but it is normal. Everything that is strange to us provokes in us a feeling of caution. And this is what happens when a person loaded with bags, with long beards, who may even smell bad and who is carrying a bottle or a half-camouflaged carton is in a place where everyone is dressed to go to work or to go to see the bride. But not everyone demonizes you for looking like that. -Are there also sympathetic people? -Yes, but you have to decide whether people who look at you with contempt and think you are a wreck of a person or charitable people cause more pain. People who come to help you with a handout and want to encourage you soften you up and what they do is make you sink deeper. They make you even more aware of your ruin. -Maybe they provoke pain but they help you to continue feeling like a "person"? -Exactly. They take away the strength and momentum that keeps you going with the help of wine. They weaken you. But at the same time they keep you feeling human, because there are looks that look at you as if you were already dead. They are looks that... I don't know how they look at you and I don't know why. It's irrational. Maybe it's the fear of unknown people. -Do we live in two different worlds? -When you are on the street you have the feeling that you are in a parallel world. When I was with other homeless people, we were like a group and then there was the rest of the people, the normal world. You try to go unnoticed and not bother anyone, but you see that two completely different worlds are passing by. For some people the years go by, they continue with their work, family, children... but you are still standing still in time. -What is it like to live on the street? -Living on the street entails a great physical deterioration. Little by little you get sick from the humidity of sleeping on the ground and from poor nutrition, because many alcoholics also stop eating. You are in such a state that the way of the cross is enormous. -You are also exposed to aggressions. -Some guys broke my nasal septum at the Maremagnum. I guess they had nothing better to do. They didn't rob me or anything. They were two young, polite boys, who made conversation with me and, as they left, they pulled a cobblestone from somewhere, broke my nasal septum and left laughing. I had heard that they beat up or even kill homeless people, but when it touches you you see that the danger is real and that you are risking your life. On weekends people get up to their asses, go out, see a person lying around... and invite them. It's crazy like that, but unfortunately it exists. -Is there camaraderie among people living on the street? -There are friends of circumstance and a certain camaraderie. If you stay with someone for the night in a square, you share wine and cigarettes. But being people who are used to being on the side of everything, people disappear without giving explanations. There are no explanations to be given. There are also ties of friendship and affection in specific cases, but not in general as if it were a brotherhood. -And solidarity? -What does happen among the indigent is sharing wine. It's all very well to share a sandwich, but for an alcoholic to take away his wine to share it, that's a real problem. The monkey that you don't have, he eats it because he thinks you need it more. It is an altruism that, if I think about it, I'm going to cry, and I don't do comedy before anyone. Sometimes, the people who give you alms told me not to spend it on wine. I told them that I would spend it on whatever I needed. Those people don't know that wine is the only thing that keeps you on your feet, that keeps you from going crazy and the memories inside you from destroying you. -In your album you talk about the point of no return towards madness. How did you manage to cross it? -I don't know because I didn't reach that point. There are colleagues who are still in psychiatric hospitals and I don't know if they will get out. I was trying to continue being myself. One of the things that helped me was going to sleep behind Tibidabo, in Collserola. I needed to be alone to recover and recharge my batteries. Because, if you sleep in the ATMs or in other places, you meet other people who also carry their tragedy and you pass it on to each other. In the forest I felt freer, even though I was a slave to alcohol. -Did you think about your memories? -Constantly. -What were you thinking about? -You think about whether it's worth the punishment, you feel guilty for the bad answers you may have given and you also feel resentment. Sometimes you think about the people who know you are on the street, you wonder if they remember you and if they were worth it because they said they were your friends. But then you realize that they have offered you help and you have run away. Then you turn your resentment not towards them but towards yourself. And that destroys and weakens you. Part of this interview was for research purposes, Luis was always coherent when answering, it seemed more like he was destitute due to external causes than internal, he knew what was happening at all times, after this interview, I contacted some friends who I knew could help him, integrating and rehabilitating him was my top priority, Luis deserved to have a second chance, luckily those good contacts were useful, I could see Luis again and hear his response to his new life. -After all the time you've spent drinking, holding that line so you don't go crazy, living on drugs and cotton wool, seeing everything through a nebulous spider's web, when you wake up you realize the things that really hurt you and the pain you caused to people who wanted to help you. Seeing this completely sober is much harder. On the street you weren't out for trifles because you were trying to save your life every day, not pass out and fall into a corner where you could get eaten by dogs. In reviewing all those irreparable mistakes you have to try to make peace with yourself. Energy and vitality must be a genetic thing. My doctor is appalled. He looks at me and recommends that I donate my body to science. But even though I am in good health and excited about this project, I have reached an age where my world has ceased to exist. I have missed out on experiences like watching movies or going to the theater. They talk to me about them and it's as if I had just arrived. Here I had the opportunity to meet a man with a story that is hard for many to believe, more so than for him. Jose David told what it was like to live as a family on the streets. "In my family. When one sleeps the other takes care, and when one takes care the other sleeps. If one hears a noise he calls the one who is resting. And so on. We eat together, we sneak out together, we do drugs together, we sell together... During the day, each one does his own thing and then we meet up. They live together in Paseo Cabriales, Valencia, Carabobo, next to the Guerra Mendez clinic. David is more of the shouting and passing comments. He approaches, says something nice and something rather intimidating and leaves. He has that kind of humor that you never know when it will turn into anger. Frank on the other hand is calmer, he likes to chat, to tell his things. "I've been on the street for many years. But what will it be, it's what happens," he says. How is life on the street? And... now it's better because I'm overcoming a very big consumption. I'm going to a detox center. A rehabilitation dining room, where I eat, bathe and meet with social psychologists. What were you using? Marijuana. But I haven't been using for about two and a half weeks. How did you get there? On the street. I was using marijuana, and marijuana led me to the base and so on. And why did you get into marijuana? And... you get to the drugstore, my friend. You go and buy and that's it. Why do you think you fell for it? Because of your mates, or at least that's what I thought they were, and one day one of them takes out a bag and you start drinking. And when it's hard to get the drugs, you go to where you can get them cheap. Why use? What does it give you? It takes away the problems you have in your life. You use and it takes away the bad thoughts. We all have problems, the difference is that some of us don't know how to deal with them and we get into a hole from which it is very difficult to get out, at least without expert help. Today, I can say that I am a totally different person, I managed to overcome stressful situations and look for better solutions to problems, living on the streets was a very hard experience, I was able to know both realities and definitely today and always I stay with this new reality that I am living, I do not want to fall back into that world. Part of these interviews, does not have the real name of the people described above all to take care of their image and avoid any damage, also the publication of these interviews has been accepted by each of the people mentioned, for them it is better for the world to know their stories and they can also make better decisions in life, much of what they lived, is lived by millions of people around the world, the only thing they want is not to be denied the helping hand and it is not about giving food, we can give more than that, we can help to rehabilitate all these people with love and patience and a lot of perseverance we can achieve it, have a happy day.

My emblematic moments The good thing about being able to store every moment in our memory is that we don't need anything more than our concentration to be able to relive those events that in one way or another marked our life, although certainly our memory keeps the good moments and those that are not so good, there is something good that this happens. Perhaps the bad moments are more a kind of reminder that if we do something wrong it has its consequences, there are also events that are not our fault and are negative in the same way but something positive is learned at least something or at least that's how I think. I like to be able to think that from every negative thing you can get a lot of good reasons. I don't see why not, we don't lose anything by being positive or even trying. We must be aware that we attract everything we think and being negative will not be a good solution. Today I want to share some of the moments that I consider the most important in my life, I say most important because if I have to list them they have marked me for life. If anyone has deserved all my support it has been my partner, since I met this man I have been able to understand so many things, one of the most important being that, love is a beggar; although many times we look for someone to take us into account and we flatter and look for and even then they do not take us into account, with my partner I learned that one should be where they want you, where you feel loved, where they show you true love, where you feel that they really appreciate your company. While most of my adolescence was a wandering and then I moved on to adulthood thinking that you are happy with the life I was living until I realised that what I was living was nothing more than a lie invented by myself. The people who were by my side were nothing more than interest, my current partner at that time never had time for me, in reality there were so many things that I think and say that I really don't know what I was thinking. Now I am much calmer, being able to sit down and think about how I feel and if I am doing the right thing, helps me to focus and evaluate if something needs to be changed in me. Learning to value myself was one of the steps I had to take back then, today I can say that I am a more confident woman thanks to the person who dedicated part of his time to me and made me feel valuable, he made me feel wanted, valued and loved. My husband and father of my daughter I owe him more than the love he has offered me, I owe him for guiding me back to the winning path and not only guiding me but also for accompanying me and moving forward together. That is why I consider this a special moment, his graduation for what he fought so hard for, a goal accomplished. I consider these women my sisters, thank you for the unconditional support they have always given me, to be able to get people who always show you that you are important to them and who show it through their actions is priceless to me. Today the three of us are already mothers, each one has managed to formalise her family and I hope that it will remain that way for the rest of her life. When you meet a person we are always sceptical and unfriendly, with them everything was different from the first shared moment, their energy transmitted confidence and it seems to have been mutual because they also understood that there were certain good energies in me as I did in them. Today we are great sisters in life, taking our greatest pride in having a united family. I would like to be able to say that for me friendships today are difficult, I think I can count on one hand the true friendships I have, I know they are very few because no one is willing to have sincere friends, today's forgiveness is very superficial and they forget the true meaning of friendship. To always remain united and thus overcome any objective, that is what a good and sincere friendship is all about. I thank the two beautiful women I had the opportunity to meet and I hope that these friendships will always continue. I have always considered that birthdays are nothing more than unnecessary expenses or at least that's what I thought until one birthday I ended up receiving this beautiful gift from my husband, I learned how special it feels that someone manages to get a smile instead of a tear, that can surprise you and also leave you with your mouth open, another special moment shared next to the man I love. Thanks to the beautiful personality of this man, I can say that I have many beautiful moments to choose from and that thanks to his love and trust I am a better person today. For me now the family union can overcome any obstacle, it is worth fighting for what you want to achieve. Whenever we want to achieve something, demonstrating with our heart and making the best decisions will help us to achieve anything. That day I felt like the most loved woman, although at first I didn't feel much joy because I had spent unnecessary money on that cake, after several minutes of reflection I understood that the only thing that matters is the intention. He only wanted to give me something good, besides the fact that I could not see my mother that day because she was far away, my husband knew how to remedy the sadness I felt. "because love is everything that surrounds us, touches us and speaks to us". How difficult it is to see, touch and feel when we are truly loved, that is why it is so important to learn to see without our eyes, to listen without our ears and to feel without our hands. Learning to listen with the heart, to touch with the eyes, to feel with the mind. When we manage to do all this, we overcome the limits of every relationship, we don't open up any harder than ourselves. You can imagine my anxiety levels in the days before giving birth, I couldn't stop thinking about when the day would come, I was so afraid of something going wrong that I often didn't sleep either. Those were not easy days when I was just waiting for my due date. As the days went by I realised that everything was going to be fine, my daughter was calm and was just waiting for the right moment to be born. When I took this photo I was celebrating what they call a baby shower, a kind of culture that I know is practiced in many places around the world, and that was one of the most tiring days. I knew I had to rest but my husband couldn't handle it all so I decided to help him deliver food and stuff. I felt like my feet were going to explode, they were super swollen so I had to take a break in the room after taking that photo so I could get my energy back and keep going. I had a lot of friends in attendance as well as the people closest to me in my life. To be able to share with each one of them I am very grateful. Because they were very sincere people who committed themselves to attend and so they did. Finally, I would like to tell you how great and wonderful my daughter's christening was. I knew it was going to be something beautiful but I didn't know how much, many people attended, godparents and relatives. It was really hard to make this christening a reality because we had to travel two hours to the nearest city to go to a church to have the baptism. I was surprised at the number of people who attended despite the fact that it was far away from home. That day was also a very tiring one, I felt that I had to walk all day, all day long I had to work, if it is true what they say that everyone enjoys our children's birthdays except the parents, I understand perfectly why they say these things. I remember that at every moment I had to go into the house to get something to eat or drink. The important thing is that my daughter was able to be baptised and thus proceed to her birthday. Each photograph has a special connotation for me, they are moments that have made a difference. They managed to capture the purest and most sincere feeling of love, I have a kind of relic in my life, which are; My Family.

The early mother's relationship and its benefits. (A mother's story) Learning to understand our baby in the first months of birth is of utmost importance, as every moment the child cries, although it may seem the same, it is not. ***Communicating in this first stage and achieving a good connection is the job of both the mother and the father.*** My daughter, for me it has been a challenge, all my knowledge about these issues, I had to use it in practice. Now I can say that the theory is not the same as the practice of course. But we can have a greater connection according to the wisdom we have. Those first days where our baby does nothing but cry is purely the desire to satisfy. The desire to eat (hunger) is also important that the mother in these first days manages to make a link, or well this link has already been developed since our baby was in the womb, what happens when it is born is that this link is strengthened. It is well known that the baby already recognises the mother's voice, but also when the baby is born, there is that first touch between the baby and the mother. **"When my daughter is born, the first thing the specialists do is to give me my baby, after holding her in my arms and breastfeeding her, they take the baby away to clean her and observe her for a moment".** And if you ask me, what was it like? Although it was less than a minute, I remember that moment perfectly, getting to touch my baby after so many months of waiting, getting to see her, to feel her, to touch her, she looked so sensitive. If you see a mother who has a bad relationship with her daughter, then you are seeing the fruit of bad communication long before she is born. That later continues to be bad after birth and continues until childhood, when the stage of adolescence arrives, it is possible to observe greater deterioration, that personality in development is already taking shape, then there come the clashes between mother and child. It is not an easy path for a mother and her children, after we give birth then at that precise moment our path begins, it depends on the mother that the child grows in emotional stability, develops all its cognitive processes and interacts with the environment that surrounds it. I have observed over the years that mothers develop this common sense, for example. Our child cries, you hear family members say, ask questions, does he have something, is he in pain, is he going to be okay? Then, the mother comes out and hits the point. **"He just wants to eat, or he is in his nappy, or maybe he is sleepy and wants to have his breast."** The mother is able to decipher the cry, and we must remember that our baby only cries at this early stage of his development. If you are going to become a mother or you already are, here are some personal tips: If you are going to have a baby, it is good that from the womb you already have a good relationship with your baby, so you can talk for a few minutes and you will feel how that baby jumps in. It is well known that our baby can also feel, rub your hand on his tummy, gently slide it all over his tummy, you will feel how your baby moves, he also likes this kind of affection. When you are going to eat something, it is good to talk to him and tell him why it is good to eat it. Babies also eat what their mothers eat, so if the baby recognises that he is eating, he will have a good selective memory when he eats. It is not good for our child to listen to loud music, because it is also not good for him to listen to loud notes. It predisposes him very easily. After birth, quickly identify why our baby cries, every cry has a reason. It is up to us to be able to decipher it quickly, so that we avoid stressing our baby. Playing music after birth, you can also do this, it will directly stimulate the baby and help with cognitive development. My daughter, although clearly not all children are the same, in part it depends on us parents, stimulation is important and better if it is at a very early age. My little girl is very agile, both physically and mentally, she learned to walk at 8 months, she can formalise words at 14 months, she can identify colours, she has excellent retention. Small details make big changes for sure. The important thing is to do it at the right time, to be able to hit the nail on the head, will give success, between your baby and you, have a happy day.

The words of a woman in power, don't give up without trying first I consider myself an enterprising woman, capable of setting goals and being able to achieve them, there are no obstacles but the mind itself, the reality is only one, living it to the fullest is up to each person. In my country we are currently living decadent moments before the pandemic, that is to say, Venezuelans already had a very hard life but, instead of lamenting such a bad situation, we became born entrepreneurs, capable of being able to sustain our lives under inadequate conditions. I don't want to talk about politics, neither to give pity about the conditions in which my country is, on the contrary, I faithfully believe that each person is the architect of his own destiny. Able to build on sediments and thus overcome again and again. As a well educated woman, with solid values, I have learned to earn my living every day, without resting. Maybe I will rest at some point. Maybe I will continue to work and thus keep my mind free of idleness. The important thing is to have objectives. To set goals. To want to achieve them no matter what it takes. That we can also recreate our own vision of a not too distant future. It is also part of us. The truth is that we are misunderstood. For many people have plenty of resources of any kind and do not exploit them. Others have absolutely nothing but their great intellect and consider that they have everything. So maybe it's a matter of perception. Those who believe they have seen it all, have seen nothing, those who swear they can get anything with money, will sadly end up suffering a tragic fate. For money may get them many material things, maybe even a more stable health (not entirely), but they will not have complete happiness. Not because they cannot, simply because happiness is part of us. Those who decide to be happy are ourselves. It seems that life plays a bad trick on us or that it plays with us. But I certainly don't think so, just like chess, making decisions costs us a lot of work, much more when they have a certain burden, whether work or home. Today being one of those days in which I pour my best coffee, I lay down on my bed, I start to think a lot of things, maybe they will say that I am crazy but it happens to all of us. Or at least I think so. I don't usually think about the past unless I want to reaffirm a decision, but kindly I think about my future, I have managed to establish myself in the business world. I have managed to have my first clients. But I know I still have a lot of work to do. What do I think? Maybe it's good that now that I have been gaining clients, maybe it's time to take the second step, being able to position myself in the market may be the most difficult thing, but with faith and a lot of dedication I hope to achieve it. It has not been easy, maybe because when you start a business you have very high expectations, but when you realize it, you get a very hard blow in the face. It is very hard to get people to trust you and your products. As a determined woman I never questioned my decision to start a business, I knew that if I questioned myself I would end up suffering as many do. So I just had to trust blindly in what I was doing. It's been several years now, my experience in the marketing area has changed. I had a way of thinking and seeing things that when I put it into practice, it gave me something completely different. It gave me something completely different. That is why I decided to take my life step by step, maybe it is slower but much safer. That the things I am telling you today are useful to other people is a real honor for me. Besides, being able to help others to try can be very useful; many times we just want to listen to that voice that tells us to do it without any fear. So at that precise moment we decided to change the cards. "Having a bad choice is very common and, even if you believe that everything is lost, you should keep trying, life was made to enjoy every moment no matter how distressing it may be, making the most of the situation will help you understand future situations and make better decisions". Remember that the best prevention against the pandemic virus that is deliberately attacking us. Remember that the best prevention against the pandemic virus that is deliberately attacking us is not to expose anyone in our family, take care of the integrity of all as well as yours. Happy day.

A sporting life I have always considered that sport has an enormous impact on the development of a person, especially the psycho-social development, it is well known that sport has great benefits at an organic, physical and metal level. A person who maintains a sporting balance, will have a more bearable life with moderate stress levels compared to other sedentary people. In my case, I have been a kickball player for several years, I also teach a little dance of any genre and my life basically moves day by day in the sports environment, I can not forget to say that I love to train and keep my body in shape. When I started in this lifestyle, I was unaware of how good it is to lead a healthy life with good food and sport, now I have several years, from sport I have learned to have discipline as a fundamental basis for a good personal development at the sporting level. In addition to being perseverant day by day improving and achieving goals, in this way I have managed to stay in the sport I love as it is kickingball, I also owe the sport to have met people similar to me and also share this lifestyle, basically I could say that they are like a family to me, sportingly speaking, training helps you to put into play the ability to socialize and interact with others, to have a better management of adaptation and encourages fellowship without forgetting the days when you share and enjoy the training. As I said before, I am also a professional dancer, I love to dance in my free time, it helps me to drain and keep me serene, every day I can dance I do it, I also love to transmit my knowledge of dance to other people, in a way I feel that I am doing something I love and being able to transmit a teaching to other people generates personal satisfaction. Whenever I can I try to help other people and let them know the benefits of leading a healthy life. The most difficult thing is to be able to commit to ourselves, I say difficult, because it is not worth anything to start training one week and not another, or train and eat poorly, sleep little. These are basic things that not everyone knows, the lifestyle of an athlete is a little more modest and somewhat quiet, we are highly active people physically speaking but we also know the importance of giving our body enough time to recover the energy that has been lost at the time of training. While a person who trains daily carries a fairly high energy load, you should rest enough hours for your body to recover, you should also eat a balanced meal. Creating daily routines is of great importance, in this way our brain is already pre-disposed every day to continue with the daily chores. In my case, my days start with a good shower to wake up and activate my body, then a breakfast of fruits and then I go to train, after leaving the training I go to eat something again a little light or high in fiber and then go to dance classes. Although it may seem like a busy life, my body is already adapted to it, that's why it is so important to get our mind and body used to it. Now you must also have enough discipline when doing any activity, the best way to be able to have a high performance is to be constant and enough to be able to do it. character. Perhaps for me these last two are the leitmotifs of my life. Because I consider that day by day they have taken me to where I am today. I always hear people say that there is nothing good about leading an active physical life, perhaps they do not know the importance of being able to lead this lifestyle. The importance of being able to have a healthy life is to appreciate that our body also deserves consideration, our body speaks to us and does it very often, as our years pass our body also loses strength, endurance and our muscles are getting smaller, so the importance of leading an active life, to train not only revitalizes our body, it also does mentally, in my case when I train, all my stress and worries are lost, being much more balanced and able to perform much more every day, of course not only our body is exhausted, so is our mind. Another beneficial point of training, is that people who train manage to channel social relationships, helps to have a better performance in sports and work, helps to strengthen the ability to cope and aggressiveness, I can say with total honesty, that training helped me to have a sense of life. Now talking about everything, why is sport important for society? Even though every society is made up of an accumulation of different people with different perceptions and lifestyles, sport has managed in a certain way to unite without discriminating against anyone and not only that, it manages to bring joy and develop a sense of belonging to people. An example, (Nelson Mandela), was quite a character and I think he managed to understand the sense of humans as a species, we have been taught to point (make prejudices) and also to feel contempt for those who do not share our culture or perhaps ideology, but for sport none of that is worth, sport managed to break all those cultural and racist stereotypes that at that time were much greater than now and managed to unite a nation for a moment regardless of color or race. That makes sport has a greater power over our lives than we think. For a while I worked with people who were addicted to different substances, I remember those were difficult days at that time I was very young and those young people like me, had lived a very difficult life, creating a detoxification program based on a change of lifestyle, was a challenge for us, but the most important thing for everything to work, was the willingness that the person had about wanting a major change in their life. Many of these young people clearly had low self-esteem, training not only helped them to raise it but also gave them power over their addictions, they learned to control their anxiety and discharge all that energy they felt when training, they learned to have a lifestyle they were not used to and all thanks to discipline and perseverance. We are the ones who have the power to make a difference and put a stop to what is not good for us. It is up to us if we want to change our stars and try a better way.

Inspired by a photograph, reflection as part of our life. Photo: I want to denote the importance of being able to reflect in moments like the ones we are living today, some of the photos that I am going to show you today, have a great reflective value for me, the flower in this case represents our source of life, every day we must go to work in different places, the bees are us, every day we must share work with other people, going out no matter what, we must be positive with everything that we are living. In days like the ones we are living, I value to have enough time to reflect deeply on the importance of being able to make the best of the situation in which we are living, now is when we have the opportunity to deepen our relationship within our family. wounds that have marked us and that we have been difficult to confront is time to stop, to relate a little more with our loved ones and somehow express all those emotions we are feeling. "In a flood of emotions we can find ourselves, immersed in a world far away from the existing reality, longing for the return of moments in which we were very happy, ignoring the opportunity of each day, each day that for me personally is a miracle come true." since we are born life teaches us that it is too short to enjoy it, too long for those who live moments of agony and too deep for those who are very superficial people, we have been living life at an accelerated speed, now we have been abruptly imposed for an indefinite time a stop, a stop so forced that it has not been easy to process, the stillness for many is not easy to bear, more when it is forced ... On the other hand, we must be consistent with all this situation, keep in mind that everything passes, everything flows, nothing is eternal... I would like to think that we are only in a solar eclipse, at this moment we live in total darkness, but the time will come when it will pass and the light will come. I am also afraid of so much uncertainty, perhaps it is the worst moment in history and in the world itself, perhaps it is the hardest lesson to accept to remove our fears in the face of an inexorable frenzy of distressing emotions, we must put on the cloak of heroes and come out of the darkness, pretend that nothing affects us and ignore the bad news, avoid in the least stressors that can cause discouragement, it would be winning the war without having started it. In moments like the ones we are living, REFLECT is the key, even though these are critical moments in a society that is not able to process the difficult situation. CRITICAL in times of hardship; it is important and essential to be able to find the good side of all the situations we are living daily, the solution is in everything except for those who have left this world, the opportunities are daily either in our face or anywhere, learn to find opportunities where others only see closed doors, the teaching is written, in the difficult path that has been handed down to us. To be able to connect with our inner self in moments of restlessness like the ones we are living, it is not necessary to be hard, repressing our emotions only fuels the fire of our inner bonfire, oxygenate our body with pure and true energy. We cannot continue to regret what has no sense, what has happened has no return, but we can mark a point and an end. For those who have memory the chapters of each day lived is a past history, on them the new paths are written. We as rational beings have a step forward in front of new challenges, this teaching clearly leaves us a painful memory, it will last for years, perhaps for a decade, the regrettable departure of so many people, but it will also give way to new challenges, new lifestyles, a society that will learn from its mistakes. Today I captured a photograph in the first place, I liked it because it has enough analogy, although, in it you can see two bees, maybe they are from different hives, but they are looking for something in common, these insects have to leave the comfort of their home every day to look for supplies for their children, for their queen and many others, but like us every day is a different day full of surprises, some of these bees leave but never return, in the same way happens with us humans, every day we must go to work without knowing what our destiny holds, even; Many of us go out at this precise moment to work, they can not stop even if they want to, all because they are in charge of a family or some responsibility to themselves, no matter that they must leave, a clear example, our doctors, like bees that take care of their hive, these doctors go out every day to care for our society, risking their lives and those of their loved ones to be exposed, all for a common purpose, to take care of each other. The lives of a bee and a human are not very different, maybe if we see it well, all living beings have a high risk to leave our place of comfort, but we must do it, no matter how difficult things are, we must move forward, no matter how dark the storm is, it will pass. With my heart in my hand, I have thought these last few days, that the key to be able to face this new era, is ourselves, the ability to cope with situations with a high level of stress, the ability to adapt to situations outside our place of comfort. All this is in us. Finally, I have reflected on what I feel, in the heart of a noble man we will always find sentimental emotions, perhaps some stronger than others, although this man is marked by moments of his life, part of these good/bad moments, are part of him, learning from our experiences make us more capable people, for a world without memory but with history.

The fidelity of a pet / Loving my fiorella How many times has it happened to us that we want to have in our arms again that pet that we have already lost, it is quite painful just thinking about it, even more so when they become part of your life. My story with "Fiorella" was quite touching, she was very small, actually Pinschers by nature are very small dogs, but Fiorella was quite unique. For her there was no difference in size, no difference in gender let alone breed, anything that came near me to be bitten no matter what. She was very jealous and much more faithful than my husband certainly. Fiorella came into my life after an aunt one day decided to give away the puppies of a pinscher she had, I was hesitant to raise a pet, I was always busy most of the day, finally I decided to keep her. Fiorella grew up and as she did so did my love for her, little by little the little dog that came to my house as a stranger was going to become a special member in my home, I didn't really think she was going to become so important, maybe because I had never had a pet of my own and under my responsibility, but as I said, this pet came to my house to show me the way. Fiorella made me understand that animals feel the same as us, I remember correctly one day of anguish I had my father sick, my anguish was so great that without wanting to, Fiorella received all that negative energy, she got sick, I had to look for a vet to examine her, my surprise was to hear that Fiorella had nothing, everything was emotional. Then I understood what had happened, my puppy had received all my shock and was suffering just like me. How can animals be more sympathetic than a person? For me they feel the same or more than us, I know that if my dog would have spoken that day she would have told me, Calm down everything is going to be ok, or maybe, stupid relax haha I really don't know, but I know that somehow she would have told me something. Fiorella today is no longer with me, probably not a day goes by that I don't think about her, she was stolen from me, really whoever did that has no heart, I would like to understand what happens to those people who do that kind of thing. Although I don't know if Fiorella is alive or not, whenever I see a pinscher the first thing I think of is my puppy. Another great memory I have of my beloved puppy, I have always liked to sleep in hammocks, I remember I always felt when I was sleeping how my Fiorella would hit me with her paws, then I would open the hammock and she would jump in. Haha that bitch really knew how to steal part of my heart. On other occasions, where I would sit she would go and see me, then she would spin around and end up jumping on my legs and poor anyone who wanted to get close to me would get bitten. Haha but the best of all was when I was going to bathe her, she looked like a child, she knew that I was going to bathe her which I hated a lot, I had to bathe with her, it was the easiest way to keep her calm. To be able to have a pet like Fiorella made me understand so many things, life is so short, sometimes so hard, maybe very stubborn, but it has a magic side, they are those unique moments that we can share with someone, moments of tranquility where we can reflect on so many things, moments with pets that make you understand that no matter the breed, for them there is no more happiness than to see us well, no matter how bad sometimes we treat them. They are faithful, they are honest. They are the reason for a pure and true love. I cannot understand how there are people who want a pet to mistreat it, it is not fair that such kind animals have to be treated that way just because they do not speak, maybe they do not say a word in our language but I assure you that they try to communicate with us. Animals are more than that, only a few of us understand that sometimes humans are more animal than the race itself, sometimes we behave like primitive beings, not that I want to judge anyone, reality has given us to understand so many things that sometimes I feel more sorry for the pets that have had to live as slaves of some senseless subjects. "In the darkest days of my history, I had the opportunity to meet the glory, she had four legs, she knew how to understand me perfectly, it was as if she felt in her own flesh what I felt, she knew that something was going on, then she would only ride her paw on my legs and with that sweet look, she would express the feeling of my sorrows, I understood so many times, that it's not the place, it's not the material, sometimes it's not the people, sometimes it's just a dog, that dog became an angel himself, he consoled me, he knew my pain and the best thing of all is that he shared it with me". Although I was not going to express any words, I could feel the connection that my pet and I had, she had touched the deepest part of my being, she managed to unblock so many doors in my life, that today I can only thank her so much and ask that wherever she is, she is well. With the pain of my soul I am missing her. Knowing that I had a true companion. Yes life goes on, but sometimes they mark you, she was not a person, a little dog turned into a true angel.

We don't always get what we want Stories don't always have a happy ending, that's life, we don't always get what we want. The story I am going to describe is not real, but it does have moments of reflection. Tom, a 13 year old boy who had no one but his grandmother, had to live the injustice of life, marginalized by his friends, he was very lonely, Tom had a strange disease, his size was not that of a normal 13 year old boy, it was much smaller, his disease was not so rare, it had to do with growth hormones although it was curable, his grandmother did not have the money to pay for the treatment. Tom did not worry about his size because despite having a problem in the development of the growth of his body, he was a pretty smart kid and able to solve many problems by himself, one day like many tom, goes out to sell sweet bread, that bread was made by himself, his grandmother had taught him how to prepare the dough and how to bake bread. After selling the bread, he bought something to eat for his grandmother and himself. One day tom heard a man with a loudspeaker saying that there was some kind of raffle, tom decided to ask, sir, excuse me, what is the value of the raffle? the man answered, 25 dollars, it was quite expensive, but the price was enough to pay for his treatment. One day Tom decided to buy a raffle, it really cost him a day's work, his grandmother saw that Tom had not bought any food that day, she said to him, "Son, do you really think you need your size? Tom quickly replied, "No, but I'm sure that's how people will accept me. His grandmother on hearing her grandson's answer replied, I don't think it's right to do anything to make others accept me, but more important is to accept ourselves as we really are. The days passed, Tom did not stop thinking about what his grandmother had told him, the truth was that he felt like his size, but he did not accept that others did not take him seriously and made fun of him, that same afternoon Tom went for a walk, while he was walking he noticed that a car that was parked had problems to park correctly, so Tom helped him to steer the car properly, After helping someone to park his car, tom leaves, but he hears someone shouting loudly, tom turns around and the person who was getting out of the car, was someone just like him when he was little, tom returns and the person says, nice to meet you, I'm John, I must thank you for helping me, Tom stares at him and without knowing what to say he answers, you are just like me, John looks at him and asks him, what do you mean? Tom replies, you're small, John replies if you mean my size, yes, I'm small but it hasn't stopped me from being who I am. The truth is a no-brainer, Tom is surprised, shocked he asks, nobody makes fun of you because of your size? John laughs, I don't think anyone should make fun of my size, whoever does probably has a brain smaller than a peanut, my size is not something to make fun of, besides, I have always fought for my dreams I have never let anyone see me higher than my shoulders, because it is not people who decide who I am, it is me who gives me a place in life. It all made sense at that moment, Tom knew what he had to do, he had to start believing more in himself, not let himself be carried away by others. After several weeks Tom's grandmother, sick and every day that passed was much stronger, his grandmother was the only thing he had, he knew he had to work twice as hard to pay for his medicines, one day after going out to sell his bread as he usually did Tom heard that the day of the raffle had arrived, he stayed to hear the winner, Tom checked his pocket looking for that paper, but did not get it, then decided to write down the numbers of the winner and look for his raffle in the house. Tom went running home thinking of nothing but being able to pay for his treatment and cure his growth problem, when he got home, his grandmother had got out of bed, washed his clothes, cooked him food, tidied his room, so Tom asked his grandmother why did you do all this if you don't feel well, His grandmother looked at him and answered, because no matter how sick I am, you are my greatest treasure. Tom was embarrassed and didn't know what to answer, his grandmother had taught him a lesson, without being able to say anything, Tom went into his room and looked for the raffle paper, he didn't know whether to check and see if he really was the winner. After several minutes Tom decided to look. There it was, he couldn't believe it, he had a chance to do his treatment. He had that winning paper, he was probably the luckiest guy in the world at that moment. He had the answer to his problem, Tom thought his life had been hard. He had never really thought about how hard his grandmother's life had been, having to face the world alone, raising him, being sick and still taking care of her things, he probably had before his eyes the real reason for living, Tom had understood, he knew well who needed the money and it wasn't exactly him, his grandmother was sick and her treatment was quite expensive, Maybe he didn't have an opportunity like that, but neither did he have to help his grandmother, Tom didn't have to think about it so much, the only person who had given everything without caring about anything was there in front of his eyes, Tom left the room and told his grandmother that he had how to pay for his treatment, his grandmother looked at him and didn't say a word, she hugged him so tightly that Tom could feel his grandmother crying with joy. For him everything made sense at that moment he had understood the meaning of life. Moral of the story: we are not always going to get what we want, even when we can have something when the time comes we may not want it in the same way, everything makes sense, we will always want something, most of the time they are just things that seek to fill gaps, fictitious gaps that don't really exist, they are more in our mind than in reality, no matter how difficult you think your life is, the truth is that life is not difficult, no more than what we put it, we must understand that it will always be hard, we give it the connotation we want, on the other hand, no matter what other people may say about us, the important thing is how we see ourselves. Because in the end the only thing that matters is the level of acceptance we have of ourselves. Happy day to you.

Exercise and its importance Physical exercise is recognised worldwide as one of the fundamental pillars of health. As is well known, exercise helps to prevent many diseases, helps to improve one's capacity and improves one's skills. It should be noted that people who exercise consistently help to regulate stress levels, regulate our weight and control our appetite. It is important to take into account what our limits are when it comes to training and, based on that, we will know how far we can go, it is not only our physical fitness that is at stake, it is also important to have a good mental state. On the other hand, leading a healthy life will not only depend on doing exercise, we must learn to eat well, an excellent diet will help our body to have the necessary proteins to be able to maintain such activity. Now that we know that it's not just about fitness and good nutrition, it's also about organisation and dedication. If we were more aware today of the benefits of such a life, we would learn to respect our bodies, to love them. On the contrary, what we often see is how the weight of a person exceeds 200 pounds, how cardiovascular diseases have increased to a great extent, how people with anxiety disorders put on weight or how depressive people end up sinking. Almost every time I ask a person why they train? Most of the answers are the same. To help me lose weight To help me feel fit To help prevent the wear and tear of age To enjoy a physical life Each and every answer revolves around a single answer. We want to train because it helps us to feel "good", i.e. we train because it not only helps us to look good physically but also helps us to accept ourselves. It is interesting to see how our self-esteem plays a role in this, probably because most people train to change something physically that we don't like about ourselves. So, we can say that yes, exercise has a great effect on our lives, that perhaps most people don't take into account its benefits much more than out of a pure need to look good for themselves. But because of this they stay active and can move on. *Benefits of an active and healthy life.* As I have said before, doing exercise can be quite beneficial if you want to, it all depends on the organization and the rigor with which it is taken, "always said nothing is worth training every day, if we do not have a good diet", it is important to know what to eat when training. Whenever we are going to train, we must always have a goal in mind, whether it is to lead a full life in physical activity, to gain or lose weight... *Why do I say this?* A person whose objective is to gain weight cannot have the same diet as someone who simply wants to lose weight. That is why it is important to know what you are looking for when training. On the other hand, there are people who can not maintain a steady pace when training, this really will not be affected, as long as the person devotes at least 150 minutes a week, it will be enough to keep our body in shape. *Benefits* Maintaining an adequate weight is basically necessary if you want to lead a healthy and bearable life, if you know how to lead a life under an adequate physical routine, it will gradually facilitate our level of intake, that is, our body will adapt to our lifestyle. Reduce the possibility of cardiovascular diseases, nowadays it is common to hear how people suffer after a certain age from stress problems, we must emphasize that most of them are sedentary people. For example, what happens if we pour the fat from fried food directly down the drain? In the first instance nothing will probably happen, but in the long run it will probably clog up. So it is with fat in our body, the fat that the body cannot dispose of naturally is stored until a cardiovascular problem occurs and it clogs the pipe. Then it is too late. Training helps to maintain an optimal emotional state, if you will, adequate, it turns out that when we train or exercise, we release energy (stress), our brain releases chemicals that are responsible for making us feel good helping us to make life more bearable. Another great benefit of exercise is that we increase our lung capacity, so that we can do any intense physical activity and have a greater capacity to endure. In a way exercise helps our body to relax better when it is time to rest, we should only take care when we train, it is not good to do it close to bedtime, because our body is activated and may not work as expected. It helps to a better sexual life, people who exercise constantly have fewer problems with erectile diffusion, this in the case of men, in both sexes, serves to increase sexual lividity, as we said before, here comes our self-esteem, people who exercise like to look good and that others can observe their physical improvement, producing a sexual response on the person. In addition, being able to exercise is something that can be done as a couple or helps to relate easily with other people, improving the interpersonal capacity of the person and making their level of socialising more appropriate in any environment where they have to relate. In conclusion Exercise is more of a lifestyle than anything else, we must learn the importance of eating healthy and lead a life of exercise that will facilitate our life in the long term. Among the recommendations we can say, that it is good to train approximately 150 minutes per week, which are medium, high routines. That is to say, some days can be intense, other days not so intense, so that we will have an adequate balance when training. Exercise with muscular intensity twice a week if you want to do this for all ages, to be able to strengthen the muscles helps us to avoid possible injuries in the long term. For those people who have a physical ailment or disability that does not allow them to perform certain activities, have their family doctor informed and be able to train with their specialist to avoid any major problems. "Eat healthy, train hard, do cardio, sleep well, be positive. The change is in us, we can conquer our goals".

Immortalised moments in my family To be able to share in family brings so many good benefits, that it is necessary, the family is part of a whole, all its members are solidified, in this way they remain united and stronger, the benefits I'm talking about is not super strength, or skills out of the ordinary, I'm talking about the confidence in ourselves, makes possess a good self-esteem, plus it helps to dispel the insecurities. But we are not the only ones who also live in a family for its benefits. Certain species, such as wolves, live in a pack, so they are safer, train their young and help each other. There are also meerkats, they are a species of mammals that live in a pack, like wolves, meerkats go out to eat in groups, almost all the time they are together, this helps them to be safer, to flee from any hunter and even from others of the same species. Now, you know the benefits of being together as a family, but we also know that we are not the only living beings that use this pattern of behaviour. But why is it so vital for us to exist as a species? Human beings, like all species, have weaknesses, unlike the others, we can think logically, human beings understood that life was easier together than apart, even to get married, on the other hand, it is also important to mention that every man feels safer next to a woman. This happens because we are really dependent beings, who are constantly in search of being loved, appreciated, wanted. When these last needs are fulfilled, as a species we feel satisfied. On the contrary, when we are not, we are insecure, bad-tempered, bitter, we don't want anyone to talk to us, we always want to be alone. Of course, this used to be a dilemma, but today we know that on a hormonal level, a person releases serotonin when he or she is happy. A hormone that is responsible for our happiness. But the opposite happens if it is not released. Totally embittered. My family bond begins with this man, at that time we were just starting out, this photo was several years ago, on the 24th of December, my treasure was not yet with us, it was really nice, to be able to make the table for two, to make the most of that moment, a woman can feel very insecure in a relationship and it happened to me very often, perhaps my relationships did not last because of my inner demons, I almost always wanted to avoid and run away, one day I met this man, so sure of himself, I really didn't know what to think. But the aura that he transmits was a big determinant for me to give in and want to meet him. I remember sometimes questioning my way of acting, because I knew that I was not really like that, I was always more cautious, but with him everything was different, I wanted to give myself the opportunity to get to know him, to know who he was and what exactly he wanted from me. At the end of the third month of getting to know each other I was trapped in his arms. It's something magical because it's been several years and I'm loving him like never before. When I met my husband, I was studying, I really thought I was going to end up crazy, because of the amount of stress I had every day, I must admit that he is someone dedicated and does not give up no matter how difficult things get, always persevering, always with a positive mind, one of the stages that helped us the most to strengthen us as a couple was this, whenever you felt defeated, I was there to comfort and give strength, then I was a little sad because something did not go as I expected, you came out with your smile and gave me encouragement. FAMILY, helping each other is true, no matter how hard things are, always tells you that everything is going to be ok, we did. We learned that as long as we stick together, nothing can defeat us. This picture was taken after your graduation, we had the opportunity to share with your family, among them my mother-in-law, your father and your two grandmothers. It was a real privilege to have each of them with us. Another detail that is largely responsible for us being together, is our lifestyle, we both love to train, one of the things we do with greater affinity is to train together. It was great those days, where we climbed that hill every morning, I couldn't wait to go, the level of demand is strong, but as we both like challenges. We did it every morning. We owe it to ourselves to get back to what we love to do the most, which is training. I hope to be able to return soon. Also, that training helps to have a pretty healthy life, helps to release stress and open your mind. I use it when I want to drain and take a clear view of my future. Graphic description. I would eat them with kisses, I have literally eaten them every day. My two loves, I love being able to do this kind of family photos, that my husband supports me in every crazy thing, it's gratifying. This session turned out perfect, I really didn't think it would turn out so great, a good family knows how to share in good times and bad, but an exemplary family knows that they should always be united, always changing the lifestyle, it also helps to improve a relationship, being dynamic somehow gives meaning to everything we love. While the main enemy of any relationship is to fall into monotony we try every day to break this paradigm, as a family we know that we must always seek to do new things. Dynamism in other words. I love my daughter, being able to take advantage of every moment to do some kind of session. It's sensational. My family album is made up every day by my daughter and my husband, you can find almost 1000 photos together, haha I literally love being able to capture every moment with them. And to capture all my emotions in those photos. It gives an emotional meaning to each unique photo.

Having time for everything, the basis is organisation. In previous blogs I have already spoken about this issue, but it is inevitable not to mention it again in view of the concern it generates. How does the covid-19 pandemic affect our children, I am not referring to the disease as such, but to the days that these children have been unable to go to school, not only that, a large part of a child's learning will depend on the way in which the child relates to the school, a child can be motivated to go to study not only because they like it, but also to see their friends, classmates. As parents we must be more attentive to the learning needs and dedication that our children are needing, to a large extent we have been taught that children should go to school to learn, but the fundamental basis I have said before, I repeat it now is the #Home as parents, we must leave time to learn to know our children better, based on the deficiencies that they have according to their level of maturity if it is adequate or not and, implement together with teachers, an assessment plan that fits our child. We will probably begin to see improvements quickly, we cannot forget that children's skills are much more demanding than those of an adult, they absorb everything and therein lies the greatest solution to our problems, let's take advantage of the hunger for knowledge that these children have, we can squeeze that "orange" well. "I have spoken to several parents, who tell me that they feel very upset with the way in which teachers are sending homework that does not correspond to the age of the child who is taking the class, probably they are right today there are not many teachers with vocation and even less with the salary they receive, this is seen a lot in my country (Venezuela), I do not know about other countries, here education is very bad, a very strong reality, because the basis of a nation is education". Now, based on the testimony of several parents, as parents we must ensure that our children have an optimal and adequate education. In my case, I am a mother, a wife, I take care of my home, my daughter and I also work. If you ask me how I have time for so many things, well, I'm just organised, I can't say that it always works for me because I know that there are things that go beyond our comprehension. But still, my daughter comes first. For my daughter I have the best, I will always have time even when I don't have it, I have to take it out, everything is for her, my whole life, well my day begins by arranging my daughter, leaving her ready for when the nanny comes, in some cases she throws a lot of tantrums but it is normal and after a few minutes she is calm and begins to share with the person who takes care of her, the first few days, it was more difficult to leave her with someone who was not her father or me, but well I had to start working and that's how it was. My daughter's adaptation was quick, at first I thought she was not going to want to stay with the nanny, but after a while, she ended up staying very calm. The relationship I have with my husband, is not the most perfect, but we are very close, we are contrary in many things, I would dare say, we never agree on anything, our thoughts clash a lot, but we both have the gift of being able to listen, a relationship depends largely on knowing how to listen to each other, also to accept when one of us has made a mistake, with my husband I always try to have the best connection possible, I even think it is so good that it is not necessary to try it just comes out, when I told him I was going to look for someone to look after the child, his face was a poem, he was not very sure, but he knew I had to start working, so he didn't tell me he was very sure about me doing that, but he didn't mention anything negative, so that was a kind of, yes. One of the things I love most about my partner, is the ability he has to handle situations, he can be in meltdown and still carry on, sometimes I think it's all to do with our mind, because of the great mental power he has to keep his head in moments of stress. For a psychologist, sometimes it's hard for him to explain many of his inappropriate behaviours, but I suppose it's part of his personality. Cooking is one of the many things that I like to dedicate a moment of love to the kitchen is something I do with great pleasure, yesterday I was preparing a steak with onions, lentils and white rice, a traditional dish in my house, although it is more for the culture of my husband, he comes from the plains, where it is vital to eat with grains, the food almost always put grains. He was even the one who taught me to prepare various types of grains such as caraota, lentils, beans. Now it turns out that I prepare them better than him. This is what my plate of food looks like, already finished, quite appetizing, it is worth noting that it is a very simple dish, Creole and very delicious, it has iron, carbohydrates, protein. All in one dish. Ingredients Beef steak White rice Lentils Onion Sweet chilli Garlic Paprika Preparation First of all you must chop the onion julienne, then throw in the pan, a touch of olive oil, salt to taste, we began to fry, after several minutes, to notice that the onion becomes a dark colour, we put the steak, if you have butter can put a little, will give a somewhat different taste, after several minutes, flip and ready does the same procedure, the steak can leave it to your liking medium or well cooked. As for the lentils, I prepare the lentils in a pot with water, let the lentils soften for about 45 minutes. We are going to fry seasoning, chilli, onion for about 5 minutes, it has to be a prudent amount according to the amount of grain that is going to be prepared. Then add them to the beans, wait for the beans to boil and turn off. Leave to stand for about 30 minutes. The rice does not have much to do, we look for a casserole, we put 2 cups of water for 1 cup of rice. Add a touch of oil and salt to taste and that's it. We wait until it dries, turn it off and let it rest. We will give you our lunch dish simply, quickly and quickly. Then we go to dessert. Vanilla cake. Ingredients. Wheat flour with leavening agent 4 eggs 250 grams of sugar 250 grams of milk Butter 200 grams Vanilla Baking powder The mixture will look more or less like this, almost everything is already there, only the vanilla is missing, we continue beating until it is ready. Add the pod, it will turn a little dark in colour, and start beating again, until it is ready. After that we pour it into a container that will go straight into the oven. After approximately 45 minutes, our cake is ready. Then I get ready and go to work, it is not very difficult to be a good housewife and also to be able to work as a manager in a shop, the truth is just a question of organisation, I have time for everything. I love everything I do, that's why my days are motivated and full of hope, I always try to dedicate time to my daughter, to be able to keep up to date with what she needs and what she can do to advance her studies. Although she is small for now, she will need more from both parents later on. We are already looking forward to those moments. My love. Have a great day, take care of yourselves, use your mouth cover. Don't expose yourselves, take care of your own.

Mother isn't everyone /Loving my niece On the road of life, as we go along we get to know each other, it is really like that, I remember perfectly well a March 8, 2013, my sister was pregnant, just 17 years old, her pregnancy was quite complicated, my sister did not want to have the baby she was carrying inside, she even wanted to abort, by fate, a colleague of my sister looked for me one day at work, I was really shocked to hear what my sister intended, I could not believe that she did not want to have the baby, that she preferred to abort than to give birth, I could not stop thinking, why she had that way of thinking, maybe it was her lack of maturity or maybe she saw the baby as a hindrance, I do not really know what so many things were going through her head, what I had to avoid was that she would abort that creature. When I got home I looked for my mom, I had to sit her down and I told her; mother my sister is pregnant, my perplexed mom started to turn pink being white, at that moment she knew something was wrong, her tension shot up when she heard that news, to complete the disaster, my sister was only 17 years old. She was just a teenager, perhaps in her eagerness to experience new things, one thing led to another and she ended up committing an act, which cost her to be a precocious mother, my mom after knowing all the events, sat down with my sister and convinced her to go to a health specialist, my story seems like a movie, it really is not, it does not end there, the story has just begun. My niece would soon arrive to the world, I was very excited from the first moment I found out that I was going to be an aunt, something inside me told me that this little girl was going to be as sweet as me. After 3 months of life my niece got sick with a high fever, when we took her to the clinic and did the subsequent tests, my niece ended up testing positive for dengue hemorrhagic fever, I felt that somehow they were taking away a part of me, we did not know what to do knowing how lethal dengue hemorrhagic fever is, the truth is that I will never forget this, that day I did not sleep all night, I was not sleepy, I wanted to close my eyes and I could not either. I really didn't know what to think, what kind of evil could a child have done to get sick like that. But against all odds the baby, only 3 months old, continued to fight, what seemed inevitable, was no longer inevitable, my niece had somehow fought and won the battle, she was quite weak, it is true, she was very thin. Then that day I understood that she still has a goal to accomplish, her time has not yet come. She is now 8 years old, to be able to write this is to remember moments of anguish, suffering, impotence, rage. I don't know, I felt so many emotions together that I could not describe with simplicity what I felt. My niece, as the years went by she became more like a daughter than anything else, even whenever I try to have dresses made or anything else I try to make her one too, she also feels that I am like her mom, I probably think that in some way she has felt my sister's rejection at that time, since those days are very delicate. For me a child is not a burden much less a stone, now that I am a mother I feel it much more, I can say that I am quite jealous with my daughter and also with my niece. I have always been very close to my niece, she takes her wherever I go regardless, near my former home there is a mountain where people go to train, jog, do any activity, I remember that every day I was going to climb my niece was already ready, although I know she was small, somehow I felt I had to take her, I do not know if it is because my sister has always been different complement with her. Very indifferent to be honest I opted to take care of her myself, it has never weighed on me and much less will it now, whenever I can I will do it because my niece for me is one more daughter. how beautiful my princesses are, it's priceless. Seeing them together. Recently they were invited to a cousin's birthday, I really do not regret for a moment to carry them both, they look so beautiful, they protect each other, they have fun together, above all they get along very well, that is the important thing that they know that they must take care of each other, that as cousins they must be united, they must always trust each other, maybe in a few years, in a disco or what do I know, they will walk together, life is like that. We don't really know where we are going until we get there. A child's happiness is not measured by goals, they are just so healthy, they show you when they are feeling good by smiling and being joyful, there is no better proof that the two of them get along so well, than this photo. I couldn't be more pleased. In a sense, I can fully trust the two of them to educate themselves. Since I have always liked to train I take her with me to a mountain, where it is very common to go to train, my black girl likes photos as much as I do, so as soon as I say photo, she is already posing, it is nice when you create such a great bond with someone who is not your daughter directly, I know that it is not good either, because then I suffer when I get away from her, for now I am on vacation but after I start working, I know I will need it. I can say that life is moments, I have always said it, moments that we must make the most of, you do not know how long they can last, some are not even enough to enjoy a little, they are so fleeting that they really did not exist, so it happens for those people who live and do not enjoy anything, everything vanishes and when they realize it is already too late. Whenever I share with them I am the one who learns something new, they are very bright, they take a way out of everything, really the girls have always taught me something. I know that my sister probably does not realize the damage she has been doing to the child, maybe now she is not realizing it, later the child will pay her with the same coin, maybe worse, I really do not know. The truth is that it is not worth bringing a child into the world, just to have pictures and decoration, please, babies are the most adorable things, they need a lot of love, spoil them so they feel they are being loved. It prevents them from growing up with irremediable affective deficiencies. As a reflection of all this I take many things, I know that my niece for me is like a daughter, but she is not, I have already had several discussions with my sister, even if I am right, my sister will always be her mother, I do not agree with many things certainly I do not think, but well I will always try to give her the best of me no matter what, I will give as much as I can, I love her, I love her madly, but her mother is another and also they are people who do not appreciate anything, they think they are doing things super well. Even if they are not, the truth is that I have learned my lesson, my daughter is one and my niece is another, I love them both. Both as one. Well guys, we have reached the end of this article. I hope you like it, always bringing unique experiences, in my personal blog. I love you all.

Sentimental objects / sometimes it's not the money, it's the emotion. I have always said that I am quite sentimental, the human being from birth, seeks to be loved, to feel loved and this search for love is reflected in our life. Although it is not in our mind (conscious), the human being seeks (unconscious) to receive love. Why does this happen? To exact science is not clear, there are certain hypotheses that say, "that the human being has in his genes the predisposition to relate to his species", on the other hand, I go more to the fact that as human beings we always cling to inanimate objects, because in a certain way we relate to something or someone, it may be that at that moment we have lived some experience, whether good or bad and certain objectives that we had at that time, make us connect with the emotions that were made in the moments. As a kind of emotional box, where we keep our memories, in this case, we only take the emotion and our container will be a specific object with which we have greater affinity, it can be anything in general. This is seen a lot, as objects of antiquity today are revalued, in this case, because as we evolve so does our environment, making more sense to want to keep some object, as sentimental value. This has happened to me in this case. With a very special moment in my life, the birth of my first baby, I can really say that my daughter has marked a before and after in my life. Of course, it has been for the better, even though the obligations already have a higher level of rigorousness, it is not something that we cannot face in this life. The truth is that I want to show you some things that have in some way a sentimental value for me. Each one of these accessories are part of my life, in essence, the feeling of my daughter who used some of these accessories when she was born. It is not easy for me to describe all the emotions I feel with these clothes, maybe because they were part of the first contact I had with her, they symbolize what was my first connection with my daughter, not only that, but they also come from generation to generation, some of these clothes were used by my niece who, chronologically is 6 years older than my daughter. Besides, it not only represents something important for me, but also for my sister. You don't always think about being fond of this kind of things, but for us these clothes are worth it. Our upbringing has always been very affectionate, on the one hand my father was always there for us and we never lacked anything, on the other hand my dad had to work, our connection with mom is very strong, but dad was fundamental in our upbringing even though he wasn't with mom most of the time, the affection is unimaginable. The level of sentimentality is very high, I guess it was inherited from my mom. One of those accessories, as is the case of the bib, was a gift from a person who, for health reasons, ended up passing away. The truth is that part of the reason why it is there is also because I know how fondly that person gave that gift. My daughter on the other hand, can't see these clothes, even though they don't fit her anymore, she loves to carry them, I guess for the comfort. Or I really don't know, the truth is that she looks very flirtatious. The greatest gift I can have from all this, is to receive something that I know someone else cares too much about. That trusts me completely to take care of it. Here I have one of the most precious treasures, perhaps because the person who gave me this gift, was someone who more than an aunt, was another mother, I know the time and dedication she had to have put to make with her blessed hands these accessories. I have no words to describe the importance of them, my aunt was a very sweet woman, unfortunately she was not able to meet my daughter. After my baby was born, my aunt fell into a kind of coma due to cancer. That finally ended up killing her. This news was quite painful, even more so when I remembered that with much love, she had given me something for my baby. At that time I had not appreciated the delicacy with which she made this hat, it was quite meticulous, the hands of an expert without a doubt, and not only that, she accompanied it with some mittens, which are just as beautiful as the hat. One of the relatives always receives things, but you don't get used to things happening the way they did with my aunt. Unfortunately, my daughter still has no use for the ribbons. But well, I am impatiently waiting for the day when I will be able to put them on. On the road of life, storms always come and go, maybe some are so strong that you can not recognize which is the right path, that's why I keep these charms. Maybe they are not relevant, but to think that the person who made them was someone very wise reassures me. If she were alive, one of her most popular phrases was, "calm daughter, every cloud has a silver lining, besides, God's work is perfect" I will never forget these words, because whenever I see these objects the first thing I remember is my aunt. Before the birth of my daughter, I was always looking forward to her christening and birthday, the truth is that this had me very motivated, since I have use of reasoning I dreamed of doing something really beautiful, especially her clothes and accessories, when the day came, I realized that not everything was as I thought, My sister told me one day that she wanted to give him something as a gift because she was the godmother of his christening, I had no idea what I could give him, so I thought, well maybe you can buy some slippers, she looked at me and replied, okay. After several days, she arrived with a pair of slippers and said to me. Here they are, I was shocked to see them, they were beautiful, they had a touch of elegance and their color was ideal, as pure as the one who wore them. On the other hand, we went for a walk to my husband's cousins' house and his cousin ended up giving me a gift, it was sealed, I was really curious to look and see what it was, but I had to wait until I got to the house to do it. I had not imagined such a gift, I had not ordered it either, the kindness of a person is not measured by what they can say, it is their actions that end up defining them, I understood that this girl had taken the audacity to make a gift that we certainly had to buy for my baby. The truth is that I learned several things. Many times we are completely unfriendly to certain people, maybe at that moment we do not realize it and we are doing it without any intention, but it is worse when we do it with intention and then it happens that something happens to that person, he has an accident. Then we begin to think so many things, which may not have any congruence, but if there is remorse, it eats and hurts because it rots the soul. It does not matter where the gesture comes from, it does not matter if we like it or not, or if we may never use what we are given, but let us learn to accept what comes with good energy, with good intentions. *Have a beautiful Palm Sunday.*

History behind the prejudices towards women / My Diary I always hear people talk about the dark side of a lady, like her past and all the things she has done. But the real question is, is it really dark? How easy it is to label a woman with some prejudice, whether it is because she has been with different men, because she has not had a serious relationship, because she is a shut-in, because she studies a lot? The truth is that women are always labeled as something for everything, even when we do nothing... That they qualify as bad. I can't understand this kind of people, are they really mentally healthy? The truth is that I am not a professional and it is not up to me to make such a classification. But as far as I am concerned these people who love to make unhealthy prejudices, I qualify them as poor minded, emasculated people who have repressed all their lives and only project their desire on other people. I am probably wrong or maybe not, the truth is that it is not worth arguing with this kind of people. Life is free, a woman has the right to do what she wants when she wants, people should understand that everyone is free, their actions are their own and have consequences, it is true. It is also well known that whoever, does harm, ends up receiving double. The latter is called karma. A woman can not be prejudiced for meaningless things, even if a married man is intimate with a woman, out of its realization, who is doing wrong is the man. In this society it is the opposite, but what if the woman with whom this man is going to be intimate does not know his presentation, men are experts at lying, we must believe twenty out of a hundred words. This is a well-known reality. I do not want to be anyone's defender, I only make public a crude reality, "I have a past, my husband knows who I was before I met him, he decided to stay with me and was very clear, I remember well that he said, I stayed with your present, not with your past, what you decide now, is who you will be from now on". Perhaps for many it is difficult to understand that when people start a relationship they are accepting the past that person brings. The history of each person is his resume, regardless of what he has done, what is on his forehead, will be determinant of his future. The world has always kept on turning, even though we humans have always hurt it. The same is the existing reality about women. So much is said about them, but the fact is that the world is the world thanks to women. Those men who talk about a woman, have a latent problem in their childhood, probably some affective problem related to their mother or, referring to the feminine side. It is as simple as that. My diary is my story, if you ask me, why do I have one? I just like it, it's like a kind of timeline, where I have included the highlights of my life. If it's true, I can say that thanks to all the things I have lived today if someone different, I had to learn many things by force, I have always been very stubborn, but well it's all part of life. The best thing about being able to write your own diary is the ability you develop over time to be your own writer. I remember, one February 03, 2018, what seemed like a day like all the others, ended up becoming a day completely full of joys and a lot of happiness. My younger sister, had left the country already several years ago (2), when someone knocks at the door, it was my sister. I felt my soul return to my body. I could not believe that my sister had arrived and that we would be together again. I have always been very close to my sister. Our upbringing has always been very affectionate. Another date, October 23, 2017, an acquaintance invited me to go out, although I was not very sure about going, I had not yet said if I wanted to go out or not, finally after a few hours, I decided that I would go out, what looked like a quiet outing, ended up being a kind of nightmare, we went out to eat at a restaurant, after having eaten, we ended up going a disco, the person I was dating, relatively was someone unknown, I did not know many things about him, after several hours, it was 2 a. m. I wanted to leave, so I told the guy, he didn't say no at first, after a moment he brought me a drink, I didn't want to continue drinking so I gave it to him, even though he was unknown, after a moment the person I gave my drink to ended up collapsing, I had never felt so scared, they had tried to drug me, I didn't know what to think, for a moment I sat down, I tried to calm down, I called my dad, after arriving home, I went into the shower, I felt so scared that I couldn't cry, someone was about to hurt me, one so big that there was no way back. The truth hurts, this experience made me open my eyes, not everyone is good, even if you think you know him, the best thing is to know how to choose who to relate with, people do not measure when trying to get what they want, I was about to be raped or who knows what else ... What happened to me I have always told, I do it as a reason for women to be aware, who knows how many women every day fall in this way. The truth is that the person who tried to do this to me, was arrested, after several months, he tried to do the same to another girl, this time he couldn't escape and ended up trapped. They are not always happy endings, in another opportunity, on December 10, 2020, actually this fact was quite recent. I went out with some friends to the beach, what seemed like a completely relaxing day at the beach, was about to become a completely sad day, one of the girls had just bought a new car and wanted to try it, when we were on our way to the beach, a passenger transport, passed through the fast lane, was going at a very high speed I do not really know the speed at which it was going, after about 10 minutes, the transport had stopped it for speeding, after about 15 minutes, came again at a fairly high speed the same transport, Not only that, it tried to overtake a car that was ahead, it was the worst decision, there was a cargo transport (truck) which managed to give a small blow to the transport, I had never felt so much fear, to see how people flew out of that transport before our eyes, it was so strong what happened, you could see dead bodies on the pavement, we did not know what to do hinmutadas to see so many people dead so many badly injured, there I could see, as an unconscious managed to kill so many people in a moment. People like this should not have a license, not only that, they should be given a mental examination. He probably won't pass the test. It was worse when we found out that the driver was alive. I don't know, I feel that life is unfair at times. I can't understand how something like that happens, the one who should have paid for the damage, had been left alive. It was like a real movie, it was quite frustrating. In the history of my life a little bit of everything has happened, some of them have not been so significant, but they are also worth noting. What started as a game, ended up being a way of life. Being able to write my story, I could just narrate every day and no one would get bored, it is really entertaining. Impressive, how time goes by, I was just starting to tell anecdotes that have been transcendental in my life and we have already spent several minutes? I've always liked to share my experiences, the truth is I'm not complaining about them, I know there are people who have lived much stronger realities, on the contrary we must learn to make the best of every situation. Happy night 🌌 you are loved a lot 😊 #women #Solidarity #honesty #sincerity #non-prejudice #loveforothers

The immortslizacion of the most special moments in my life Throughout my pregnancy I was planning so many things I could do with my daughter. The truth is that there are endless things, but what caused me the most anxiety was the moment of her arrival, as the months passed my anxiety for the arrival of that day became greater, I do not know how many times I could not sleep for the simple fact of thinking that something bad would happen, although thank God the pregnancy was quite good, I had some risks but everything at the end of the movie went well. When the day came my little girl wanted to be born earlier than expected, I remember that day perfectly. When I woke up and saw all that fluid coming out of my intimate part, it was really the biggest scare, my inexperience told me that something bad was happening, but I did not know how bad, when I called my Dr. the first thing he told me was, come straight to the clinic. That was where I felt the most anxiety. Without a doubt the moment had arrived, the nights had passed and the wait was over, the only thing I could think of was that my baby was safe and sound. Because otherwise I would not know what to do with my life. It is true that despite not having my baby in my arms, the bond I developed with her was and still is very strong.... The stimulation was just right and everything went as it should. I entered the delivery room, everything happened so fast, in a matter of minutes my daughter was born, I had the opportunity to hold her in my arms, to feel her delicate and extremely sensitive body was wonderful accompanied by that scream that in another occasion would have bothered me, stunned me, but in this one it was totally the opposite, it was also felt to hear her voice and at that moment my happiness was greater. As the days went by I was learning the art of being a mother, those days were quite hard, besides being a first time mother and not having an experienced woman by my side, it was up to my husband and me, to get ahead, the best thing about this whole story is that the months went by and with each month I was celebrating one more accomplished. In her month #1. Despite being very small I decided to do a photo shoot, I have always said that there is nothing better than immortalizing the moments by taking a picture, what better than doing it in her first month, I did not really know what to wear, but finally creativity came to the surface, as we were at Christmas time I ended up doing a session quite similar to the Christmas month. Days went by, really these days go by very fast, if you can enjoy just a little bit, in the blink of an eye the next month was coming and I had no idea again what the outfit for the session would be. By month #2, I already had a striking idea, I felt confident, but I ended up doing it this way, I didn't focus so much on the dress, but I did focus on some decorations around her, I also bought a small cake in her honor. And well, the magic came out again. In this month, our adaptation was getting better, we learned that we had to pay a lot of attention to her, since she gets up all the time. And we were afraid he was going to choke or something like that. After these two months I felt much more comfortable, I had more confidence to make him something much more to his height, missing only days for his next birthday month I decided to do it in honor of the carnival, the costumes, I like to mix colors, just as we mix our lives to form the ideal color. The contrast it has as a result is unique and unparalleled. Her month #3 of life had arrived. When you are flirtatious and combine this with your maternal bond you get a total Angelik as a result, haha I wanted to make my daughter look beautiful and at the same time, not carry so much fabric so I dressed her up according to the occasion. Sort of a gypsy outfit. As the days went by I had already acquired innate maternal skills, although we did not prepare ourselves to be mothers, this maternal ability appears as the days go by. Every day next to my baby was completely unique and special, I can say that I have enjoyed my daughter from day one. And I hope I can continue to do so. I had an idea in mind with the photo session, but we were traveling, so I thought I could do a completely different session, I had to look for something out of the ordinary. So, there was this huge wall mirror telling me HERE I AM! I decided to take this husband from the cabin where we were staying, we went out into the yard and found some beautiful flowers. So there we ended up doing the session it wasn't easy at all to get the baby to stay still. But the pictures came out and better than I could have expected my daughter had turned out beautiful and stunning. My daughter has been very stimulated since pregnancy. By her 5th month she was already babbling a lot, she was also very giggly and was always laughing with something or someone, I got to feel scared because sometimes she would do it and no one was around. Then I understood that I had drawn some flowers on the wall, she was laughing when she saw the colors. For this month I decided to work with what I had at hand, that is to say, everything that appears in the photo was made (made by me) I have always been given the crafts another quality that I have also had. It is the creativity in which I make sides and all kinds of ornaments. Who doesn't like butterflies, I love them especially for their beautiful shades, I decided to do month #6. Butterfly, I tried to mix different colors to highlight more the photo, without loading it so much of strong colors, I used a variety of butterfly figures. And well my baby did the rest. I really have no complaints in these last 6 months I can say that they were difficult and each one brought with it a greater responsibility, it is worth mentioning that my daughter did not take the breast since she was born, which came to us a huge expense in buying nutritious food, I can say that they were expensive, in relation to what can be earned here in this country. Back to the subject. The days had passed and I had not realized, my little sprout was already much bigger, her care was now greater, and she has always been very restless, but already in these months she was older. When month #7 arrived. Our life had turned upside down, we had problems in our old apartment and we had to look for a new one, this is where everything became more and more difficult. Changing our place of comfort generated a lot of stress in both my husband and I, we were not well psychologically. But we knew we had to be together for the sake of the child. So, we decided to move on, nothing was going to be the same, but there was no other way. So, to devise a good photo session, I remember to turn to a friend who had a professional camera, we did the session and my daughter was once again wonderfully beautiful. My beautiful daughter was older now, she could crawl and even stand on her own two feet. As long as she was holding on. My daughter was very premature in walking, at 8 months she wanted to walk. I really didn't know what to think, but thank God it was a good thing. In this session number 8# I decided to go further, knowing that my daughter could already do things on her own I decided to leave it to her, I was not wrong, the pictures turned out wonderful, like a model, really charming. As a mother you always want to teach her the best for your child. In our case it doesn't change much. But we have decided to let her really choose what to do. On her 9th month. My daughter was already taking her first steps, quite fast, I was very scared to think that she was going to fall, but well it was not the idea not to let her, that she would know how wonderful it is to walk. Being aware that the months had passed and the year was less than a year away, we decided to save as much as we could to have a reunion. Although we didn't have much money, we knew that the important thing was to do something for her, to gather the family and enjoy with her. The photo session was much simpler, my daughter was already posing alone and there wasn't much work to do other than take the pictures. The colors were according to her outfit. I didn't go for anything fancy. Classic and simply beautiful. We decided not to do the last two, we had created a kind of fame in networks like Instagram, people waited every month to see our photos, many commented that when the tenth month arrived no photo was posted in celebration and, neither was done in the following month. All this in order to save money we wanted to have a party for our daughter. We had to go through many moments to reach these almost 12 months. We were a few days away from her birthday. Our stress level was impressive, we had so many things to do, things to look for, to put up, to give out, plus we always had to be on the lookout for party buddies. It's really not easy to have a reunion nowadays, let alone doing it in celebration of your child. It is not easy at all. The day had come. The moment had arrived. His first year of life. How nice it feels to reach his first year in such a way to celebrate his birthday in a big way. Just like her birth, we're not big spenders. But I do like to spend on my daughter, I know obviously that's not a sign of education. But we do it more out of desire as parents. I felt this first birthday as my own. These first stages, each one has marked a before and after in my life, the most beautiful thing is to be able to bring a life into the world, but much better if that creature receives from pregnancy the love of their parents. Yes, I learned many things I didn't know. Above all, to get to know my daughter. To have a good relationship even though she has my character and is quite stubborn. In short, it was painful, I had sleepless nights, days of anguish, days of anxiety, a lot of stress. Fights due to hormonal changes with my poor husband. There were endless situations. But I leave as an example. As a very new family, we had to live very strong things, but coming out of these lessons is who we are today. The path of motherhood is very beautiful, it can seem like a completely clear day and in the blink of an eye there is a storm, but it is all worth it. Especially when it tells you "mom" or "dad". My articles are all in reference to my family, probably those who like to read what I write will already know that. And I hope to bring more diversified topics in the future, for now, I will continue to make my family known a little bit. The three musketeers.

A story to tell For a long time I was looking for something that I was not going to find, during almost all my adolescence I had a very different thought than the one I have now, when you have no idea of what you are really looking for you get lost many times in the bright path, you always see the light but you never reach the end, it always happens that we go without a compass or north that points to where we should go, the stories unfold as our lives are written, today my ink has indicated that another page of my book has been written, a book that someday my children and grandchildren may read, it is not just any book, you can not get this book everywhere, but if in my memory there it remains imperative for another day, to begin to draw another line again. Perhaps little understand but if you know metaphors know that my life is one, no need to explain so detailed what I am writing now, as well as you read it is simple, the difficult thing is to feel with him can read it, you must be empathetic because not everyone understands my muse, since childhood I have learned that if you want to be someone life, I have learned since I was a child that if you want to be someone in life, you must set a course, one that not everyone likes, which is probably the hardest, but it is worth it, it should be worth it to those who do not try, they end up falling into the idea that the simplest is the most suitable, fools do not understand that what comes easy is soon over, they will end up thinking that someday they will get out of the hole they have fallen into. Looking for a path that they will not find, so sad and depressed will be their life, so sad and depressed that the rain of the days will only be a reminder of the soul and the hardships they carry. Metaphors have become part of new lives, since time immemorial they have been used to express, ideas, sadness, feelings, giving in large part the power of the mind to fly in a sea of illusions, I have always liked them especially because I hear them very often in songs, the best of all is the feeling that metaphors can detail. I get the idea that it is easier to live in a hurry than in a sea of simple words. There the warm feeling sharpens my senses, driving even the sanest mad. I can't remember the last time I was able to cry and fly to heaven. That beautiful day was when I kissed my cousin, who is no longer in this world of the living, she left for a much more splendid place that perhaps not all of us can reach. It pains me to think that the romantics are becoming extinct, I no longer see so many poems, nor the magic of a letter, if one understood that there was no better time than to see his Romeo, dedicating a poem we can not compare to the courtships that today no longer arrive, if I could turn back the time I would return to those years, where a poem could form the most hostile beast that on earth had stepped, this happened because love was more to feel and less words, people understood that to say I love you is because you really feel it internally. Today these times have changed, I only see people trying to find a love that they are not going to get, especially because you can not look for love in a motel on Thursday afternoon. People lie to each other every day everything to get together in carnal passion and desire, which has changed the whole world so much, that is why we see so many couples that have ended up leaving a family in half, it hurts more to see their children, with their sad faces thinking that nothing will be the same, with the thought that maybe someday their parents can return something that will not happen, because what is not born for love does not die for love, simply love is to die thinking that it is not only this life, but all those to come. That is why we see old people together but not so many grandchildren, cultures have changed and everything has been modified, love is already used as a pretext to eat the misdeed of the carnal, if they knew that it is an inordinate world, lonely and sad, the one that many live, thinking that maybe someday they will get someone and really they are only in charge of making them happy. For those who are still reading, I will tell you something, that to love is worth it, to die for love is worth it more, but to live for love not everyone does it, perhaps because I see it as very difficult, if you still do not understand me, have a child and you will feel that you cannot. Leave him alone, that you must take care of him, that you must give him love, pamper him, above all love him. That's life, my friends, there are different ways to love as well as to want. Because if we want, we want everything, but from words to deeds there is a long way to go, that is how it is, less words and more action. Because we cannot live by words, neither can we feel, but by love, for love we will do everything that is within our reach and what is not within our reach as well. On a day like today I met the man I now call my husband, that man managed to do what many tried but could not, tame my heart, take the reins of my life and guide me along the way. Today we are celebrating another year of being together, if I knew what life had in store for me I would swear I would not have waited so long, but time is perfect, just like life, everything comes at the right time. To be able to build a life together with a person who has become more than a sun, he is also a star, it is a privilege that not everyone has, to be able to have a hand to lean on, that is worth it all, especially for the world we are living in. Where dangers abound and bad intentions reign. To be able to build a life together with a person who has become more than a sun, it is also a star, it is a privilege that not everyone has, to be able to have a hand to support us, that is worth everything, especially for the world in which we are living. Where dangers abound and bad intentions reign. People will not always want to see you well, it hurts them if you do better than them, that is why it is good not to walk alone, not to tell everything, the Hindus have always been very wise and one of the things they mention is that if you really want something to be given, it is best not to say anything, experience has taught them that not everyone wants what you are looking for and there will always be someone who does not want to see you happy. So you better live without publishing your life. Those who really care don't see it, but those who are looking to hurt you are watching your every step. It is always a pleasure to share with you, one more day, full of life and joy, joy because as long as you are alive and healthy, everything is fine. Happy day friends take care of yourselves.

The relationship as a couple When you are starting a relationship the first thing you find is a lot of unknowns which you want to know and if you are really interested in the person is more the desire to know everything about this person. Now what happens after knowing their past, some are not very good to say, others do not really have much to tell, the truth is that if the first impression of a person is the one that gives at the first moment. On the other hand, we cannot forget something very important, when we met this person, he was "free" that is to say, he only belonged to himself, but what happens later? The difficult thing is to understand that no one belongs to anyone and that maybe if you are now living with that person, he/she does not belong to you. When you enter into a relationship very common mistakes are made, such as. Thinking that now the person who is currently in a relationship with you is your property, as if it were an object, land etc .... The truth is that we feel that he/she is ours and, no, nobody belongs to anybody, basic rule. We must understand that this person, even if she is living with us, has full freedom, to feel that she is in the relationship because she wants it and not because she feels obligated. I don't mean by this that she can walk in the street looking for any girl she can find. No. It is not necessary to have to submit someone to be in a relationship because there is simply free will. A relationship in order to flow properly must have good communication, communication is everything even in the most difficult moments, there is nothing nicer than being able to feel that you do not keep anything from your partner, there are even people who daily tell each other what happens to them, that's perfect. Because a very special bond of trust is created. Sharing with your partner is not only to be with her, we must learn to enjoy the moment when we are by her side, it is not the same, spend time with your partner, to enjoy the time with your partner, dedicate that moment exclusively only to her, it will make her feel very appreciated and certainly strengthen the bond that exists between the two. Many relationships fail and some even become routine, all because our partner does not necessarily want you to take her somewhere, but to show her that she is worth every second, minute, hour, day... Another very important fact, do not think that because you are already in a relationship you should stop doing what you did at the beginning. That is, always be the person she fell in love with, not because you are already in a relationship you will stop doing it. Believe me this also happens a lot, we must try every day to fall more in love with our partner, even if we have been together for 20 years, we must treat her as if it were our first day, I doubt very much that if you do it, she will leave you. Obviously, this treatment must be reciprocal, give to receive if both of you show the love you always have for each other, everything will be worth it. When we want our partner to change something, there is no better example than giving it ourselves, it is worthless to tell him/her that he/she should change, he/she will probably take it badly or maybe he/she will listen to you but in the same way he/she will not change anything, the best solution is to demonstrate through our actions, it is the best lesson we can give and without a doubt there will be some change in the future. Because there is no more difficult person to accept when we have done wrong than ourselves. In a relationship where there is true love, there must be respect and trust as two fundamental pillars, if there is mutual respect everything will go well, even they will be the most admired couple and not only by other people probably if they have children, by themselves and, trust as I mentioned above, trust is extremely important, where there is trust there will be no insecurities that can spoil things, it always happens that eternal love comes together, but there is no respect and trust .... After three months or even less they end up leaving each other, remember it is very important to know when to take the step to have a relationship, we must have a lot of maturity, we must be people capable of handling situations that in some cases are quite complex. In my personal experience, I have gone through several relationships, today I have my husband and daughter, I can say that from my former partners I learned many things, I probably feel that they modified me to be the woman I am today. I had to go through different situations to understand many things, thanks to them I was able to mature many aspects of my personality, which led me to the woman I am today. Like me, my partner also had to live through many not so beautiful situations, but we both decided to start this beautiful path several years ago, which I can say with total certainty that I do not regret a bit. It feels good to spend time with someone who really listens to you, who tells you things no matter how hard they seem and that the conversations are always pleasant and full of romance, there is nothing nicer than being able to fully trust someone, without fear that they can hurt you or hurt you. Because that is the trust that should strengthen the relationship. Whenever you want to start a journey with someone special, start by being sincere, take the first step, give that example and vote of confidence, maybe the other person is also afraid of being hurt, especially if they tell you their past, do not judge them, you can give them a hug. Then tell her that everything will be fine, because you do not love her past but the person who, thanks to what she has lived through, is the person she is today. I like to be able to give tools to people who do not feel that they are the only ones to whom bad things always happen. To all of us, after every storm, always comes the calm. Happy day to all of us. Friends.
