We are fortunate. My country Venezuela is characterized by a tropical climate, but also depending on the area where the population we want to visit is located, we can have very temperate climates and we have climates with moderate temperatures, I mean places where the temperature allows us to have a balance between cold and heat. We also have populations very high above sea level where snow falls and such is the case of the Andes of Merida. There are towns where in the…

What comes out of our mouths. We as human beings are very complex, we are people who are made to live in communities, to live in groups, to live in pairs. But when it comes to communicating with people we don't seem to try to do it in the best way. Sometimes it is easier to keep quiet and say nothing and sometimes it is easier not to say thank you, or not to be polite or to have no values or education. Many of the people we communicate with don't know us, we have no…
Do you know what happens to your deceased? I know that today is not the day of the dead but I wanted to make this publication about our beloved departed. According to what I have learned from the word of God, who died on the cross to complete what was written in the Old Testament, this is what happens to the dead, to our departed. When the individual dies, his body ends up in a grave and his soul is released to go to the disposition of the one who gave him the breath of…
Memories of a yesterday. Memories always come suddenly to my mind. Any situation where I read or watch a story or see a movie will make my memory travel through time and recall the events of long ago with great clarity. When I was young in my body, I remember having a group of friends that was great, there were dating couples or just friends as was I of all people, and we had a great time. I remember one time we went in three cars to a place that at that time was a very…
What does it mean? It was difficult for me to say what happiness means. Over time things change according to the way we look at them, the material things that once gave me happiness were ephemeral. The joy I held in them was not in them, happiness was within me and I didn’t know it. In my youth I was a very independent young woman, a fighter, tenacious and whatever I set my mind to, I tried so hard to the point of physical and mental exhaustion, but after I achieved the…
Back to him. I was about 23 years old, I don't know why I was there, but the truth is that I was looking for a place, a direction. In fact I had in my hands a written paper with the directions to follow. I found myself going up in a house, with a structure similar to a building. I had somehow made my way up there. I was on the terrace and in the directions on the paper, which I did not read, it said that I had to go down a very tight staircase to reach my destination. I…
Be like Echo or be yourself. Today while I was waiting for a patient to come to my office I stopped to watch a program in which they made reference to the nymph *Echo*. They correlated the ancient story with the difficulties some people have in communicating with others with respect. Recalling a bit about Echo's story, she was a wood nymph and according to the account of her characteristics they tell that she had such a melodious voice that even she herself was captivated…
The love of his life. She was 11 years old when she met him, he was only two years older. They had a pure, adolescent love for each other. She was a shy girl, with a fair complexion, light brown hair and a small body while he was also small and his complexion was dark, with curly hair. They met in school and stayed that way through high school. But something happened, he was her neighbor, their houses were very close to each other. They lived in a fishing town and his family…
Christmas is here. These dates bring back memories, the times when my family was complete come to my mind but many things have changed in the family, in the country and everything is lived in a different way. It’s November, many years ago this date had an atmosphere of joy. The avenues were radiant at night, as much as in the daytime, the stores, malls, houses, buildings, even the trees did not fail to show their Christmas decorations, sparklers everywhere. I loved that…
Imitator. We look like self-made people, but we are what we are thanks to our great sense of observance. It seems unbelievable, but we are the greatest imitators in the world. That's where our evolution comes from. We imitate from the moment we are born. The habits we learn in the family we keep for the rest of our lives, the way we gesture, some idioms when we speak, even the way we walk, talk, laugh, eat, we look like our relatives and the people we meet. We also have the…
Each day brings its own eagerness. The word says that each day has its own eagerness. We should not worry about tomorrow but about the day itself that we already have in front of us because we do not even know if we will be on this plane in the following hours. In the meantime we focus on the gift of life we already have. At home we have problems with our internet signal, we have had it for a long time. We are learning to manage this stress as well. My son is working online…
What would you do in this case? When people get married they do it very much in love, figuring it will be for life. When I met France I did so while working at the hospital, she was an excellent co-worker with some years of experience. In fact she worked in two hospitals. She was a wife, mother of three children and sister of another very good co-worker. When I met her whole family it was because we had already become friends. We would go out on the weekend off together in…
Wild nature in my garden. Today I decided to write about the nature in my garden, reading @JonicaBradley's post I found that her theme suggested wild nature, so today I will tell you about my wild jungle. My life runs in a very emotional way, in the mornings I am in my office taking care of the people who, although they are few, come to be scanned with my ultrasound equipment. Then in the afternoons my attention is for the plants in my jungle. I leave to attend to some forms…
The star of my dream. Years ago, many years ago here was a girl who liked to dream. She would curl up at night, very close to the oil lamp and stand on her terrace looking up at the sky. She counted the stars. She knew their names, each of them… or so she said, because those names were the ones she herself gave them. Mia was a lonely child. She lived in the forest with her grandmother, her parents couldn't take care of her, so as a baby they talked to her grandmother and…
I have faith. Greetings my friends all of this great read.cash family. Today I bring you an account of my day's activities, they are nothing to write about but I would like to share them with my loyal readers and sponsors. In the morning I was waiting for a patient. Someone told me that she comes from the closest city to mine but belongs to another state, someone is concerned about the patient because she has an undiagnosed pathology. She apparently has some friends who made…
My mysterious friend. I met him on the bus while going from one place to another in the same city, he was sitting next to me on the train. At first I didn't think much of his presence. I am in the habit of reading while traveling and I don’t tend to notice how fast time goes by. For many people, sitting for three hours while I'm on my way to work outside my hometown is a very long time indeed, but that is if you don't find something important to distract your mind. He was…
The cat in the dark. He is an ordinary cat, he has the features of a tabby cat. Maybe you don’t know but it’s one of the ancient Egyptian breeds and his features remind me of the big cats, that's why they give this name to the breed. I can imagine where the Egyptians got their eye makeup from, because the lines in the eyes of these cats resemble the makeup of the Pharaohs and Cleopatra. But well, I don’t come to tell you stories of the antiquity but of the present. This cat…
The things of my life. Greetings my dear read.cash community. Today I’m not bringing you stories or anecdotes from the past of my life, but instead I will tell you about some things that happen to me. Yesterday was a very busy day, so many things going on at once. After a long time looking for a company that could serve as our internet provider we found it and we spent a lot more money than what we intended but it was our only option for the moment. The neighbor across the…
Do you write predicting? Greetings to my dear friends of the read.cash community, today I bring you science fiction. What would you do if you were a writer that everything you write becomes reality? Well, I will tell you something that happened in the life of a very dear friend. It happened that one day Richard was having a conversation with his friend Ramon about things in their lives, that's when Ramon told him something personal about his life. *“You know what? Richard, I…
An afternoon at sea. I like sunsets. The colors seen in the firmament are not surpassed by human creativity. Here I am at the beach, where I would see a sky as beautiful as this one, so full of color. I walk along the soft sands. As the waves of the sea hit my bare feet, the breeze does its thing. It brings me the murmurs of the sea, music to my ears. It comes and goes, comes and goes, so is the swell of the sea. Leaving its trail of foam as it breaks its waves on the…
Changes in the environments. At this time every year you could see all the people, maybe not all but many of them, painting their houses. Many neighbors bought their paints and embellished their house fronts, everything looked like new. Nowadays you see very few people around my place painting their house fronts. There are two or three houses that have put up new paint. I see other houses that are washing their walls to get rid of the dust and move on. There are no Christmas…
A love suffered, a love loved. She met him when she was just a child. He was several years ahead of her, but Susana thought she was a woman at 16 and she did not understand the wickedness of the world, much less the wickedness of men. She fell in love with him, but I don't know what she saw in him because he was just an ordinary man, a man that could very easily deceive girls with sweet words of persuasion and fake promises. He sought her out, spoke sweet words to her,…
The shooting star. Dear readers of read.cash, today, in order to please some people who very kindly want me to write a very happy story, I’m going to write a story. This is a story that, at the time of writing, I don't know yet how I’ll start it or how I will end it but what I do know is that I will create it as happy as I can. Paulina is a very sensitive girl who likes flowers and smiles in the morning, that doesn't take away from the fact that she is an enterprising woman.…
It's the same star. My dear readers, this is the continuation of Paulina's romantic story. I hope you liked the first one. The only thing she asks is for that man to leave the vehicle to her, because she couldn't stay one night there, so close and yet so far from her parents' house. But things would not be so easy, the gentleman also demands preference, it's only two hours away from his home and it's not fair to not give him the car. So the employees of the place eventually…
