The “why” of your nickname? Greetings my reader friends, today is September 1st. Yesterday I was disconnected. I had an encounter with a strong virus that trapped me in bed with chills, fever and a headache, but lots of fluids, scans and today I’m back with you as usual, ready to write. When I started participating in these platforms I had no idea how to go about it. Unlike many people who have many years participating in them I didn’t know anyone who was involved in these…
The Smith family. This is a family of three, the father, Mr. Joseh Smith, is already 40 years old. He takes care of his work online. The office is a room in the house which they adapted to make a studio so that he can develop as an independent entrepreneur. Mrs. Smith is a woman of her home and takes care of her family, her husband and her daughter. Sophia is an adorable little girl of only 9 years old who was always smiling and making her parents happy with her antics,…
Being different is bad? This is a fairy tale, like all fairy tales it has its moral and I hope that we as human beings will be able to understand and always be like this and accept our realities and peculiarities as blessings. ............................................................................................................................................................. She was a girl just like all the others in her village, a 10 year old girl with a lot of…
Why are you complaining? We all have problems, some have bigger problems than others but can you tell who has the biggest one? How do you know? How do I know that my problem is smaller than the one you have? The truth is you will only know when you are talking to the right person. Maria was a woman who kept complaining about the sad life she was leading. She only knew how to say... *“This only happens to me”* and so she spent her days, her sad days, between lamentations and…
My pride in being old. Being called old does not offend me, because the one who does it with contempt should know that I don’t sit down to waste my time thinking about offenses, because an offense only has repercussions on the person if he himself allows it to disturb him. I no longer bother to think about the motive that might lead a person to belittle his future. But if he calls me old with affection that makes me proud, and that's what I'm going to talk about today. It…
Read this, it's for you! Life is a long road full of surprises. It’s up to us and our imagination to try to see things as objectively as possible. In this way, the obstacles we encounter will be placed at our disposal. What I mean by this is that obstacles are instruments that are presented to us in life so that we can achieve our ideas, because we establish mechanisms to achieve short and medium term achievements but then arise what we call obstacles, which get in the way…
The wild life of my Copito. Here's a cat story, it so happens that today I read friend @coquicoin's post about a cat guest she has in her home. Her son has a friend who is a cat owner and he went on vacation for a month and left his cat in the care of our friend. I hope she does very well in the remaining weeks with this unique feline. At home we now have two kittens, my older cat Copito and my youngest one, Meme. Copito is an outdoor cat, he stays all day long in my house,…
"The cat lady." It was an ordinary afternoon, but it wouldn't be long before it began to be very special, at least for my son. My son came into my room, very animated, and said… "Mom there is a cute kitten outside, if you could see it." I was busy writing my posts, but he still asked me to see the little kitten. I was done with my read.cash comments after a while and closed my page. I went to my front porch and there was my son, sitting on my front porch door and petting a…
The consequences of my bad habits. I was a smoker for many years. I started while I was still in nursing school, when I was about 17 years old and then I kept on smoking for about 10 years. But this is a story already told, I just wanted to make a preamble to the following. Today I have the consequences of having damaged my lungs with cigarettes, adding to this fact is my genetics which have a history of lung inflammations in almost all the generations following my parents,…
A walk in the garden. I like my garden, after going through the morning chores in the afternoon I suddenly decided to take a walk through my garden. This plant you see here is a spinach plant, it was given to me by a friend when she was barely about 20 cm tall and she has taken to my garden very well. I let her come tangling up to the railings in my living room. There, as you can see, she's burrowing all over the fence and is trying to keep growing towards the other fence.…
The child of the house. I recently learned about the peculiar situation that some friends of mine experienced. The grandmother of the family, Mrs. Maria, is a lady from Barbados. She still has a hard time speaking good Spanish and I doubt she ever will and she is already 70 years old. The truth is that she told me that her granddaughter, barely 10 years old, was recently raped by the former sexual partner of the girl's mother. No one in the family realized that the girl was…
My events today. Every day things happen that can be bad or can be good, depending on how we look at it. I have reached a point in life where I always think that there is something behind every circumstance that happens to us, there are always episodes that go against our inner peace. Today was a day that dawned just like any other, calm on the one hand, an awakening of gratitude in the first place to God for his mercy in giving me one more day of life. But it didn't stop…
More experiences gained. In the course of my life I have always encountered very dishonest people. Like everything else, there are also honest people and I tend to believe in honesty more easily than the other way around. Some time ago I let a person who needed lodging in my house stay over here, since I know him and he is usually the one who repairs a lot of things in my house. I had the idea to offer him my house for when he stayed late in this city, since he is from a…
My ordinary day. Every day brings its own teaching, every day we enjoy the good things that everyday life gives us. There are days that are bad according to each person's point of view, but I am one of those who think that we can make the most of even from the bad things. I like my day to day. I am busy all day long, but even though I don't do the cleaning or the laundry or the ironing, because thank God I pay someone else to do those chores. My days are busy. I usually wake…
Something from here and something from there, mixed together. Today I am writing alliatory thoughts. I have read several posts throughout the day and am excited to see the diverivility of ideas in each of the user people I follow. One post I read early was about lies. It will be a topic that many will address over the course of the week. (friend Coquicoin) Lies are always lies. There is no such thing as white lies or black lies, they are just terms that we have added to give…
Do we want to get sick? Illnesses are one of the limiting factors in our daily activities. We may be eager to get ahead, to work, to do what we are usually willing to do in our daily life. But if we feel sick, our body asks us to change our behavior. But why do we get sick? They can be physical illnesses but also mental ones and when I say mental I mean those caused by ourselves and not by mental disorders. We can cure bodily diseases with the medicines prescribed by the…
Her story. My friend Dulce was a very happy woman. Already in her 60's she was doing very well with her children and husband. A fervent Catholic, she attended Sunday Mass and belonged to church groups. That's where I met her, in a Bible study assistance group. The priest of the church, very charismatic, was the one who taught and he always sent us homework assignments. We were a group of four people. My honorary lifelong sister, whom I met when I was a teenager, a doctor…
Memories of your life in me. Since yesterday I have in my mind the thought of when I got pregnant. I was finishing my internship for the internal medicine service at my local hospital Aad I was arranging my parents to go to the capital of my country to do a diploma in ultrasound, But in the back of my mind I was hoping that everything would turn out as I had planned. Being pregnant, studying, and then in my vacations during July and August I would have my baby. In Caracas I…
Yesterday was caturday. This post was supposed to come out yesterday but as you can see yesterday it was not possible. It's an invitation from friend @megakyodaibanray to write about cats. At home I have these two boys who have come into my life for their own pleasure, or at least one of them was brought in by his own mother and left here with me. She left. I have a cat that some people already know, my cat Copito who is 8 human years old and the youngest cat, Meme, who is…
My beginnings and my continuation. I was looking back and remembered how my beginnings on this platform were. I was invited by a friend, she was also on another platform where things are more difficult, there is a lot of work and little profit but in the same way I was very grateful for my hard work and effort on those two other platforms. I started working here at read.cash, but my knowledge about how to proceed here was nil. I was even afraid to start. I didn't understand…
Is it good to give advice? In my life and throughout my years I have gone through so many circumstances, that’s why I always write from my perspective, from the particular of each of my experiences. Generally my posts are based on the knowledge acquired through my personal circumstances, there have been many because from an early age I have had to fight too much to achieve and reach my goals. I received a lot of help, because God always sends his angels to protect us, do you…
