Overview
About Me
Espero convertirme en cerveza... para que finalmente me tomen en serio.
- MEET ME AT YOUR OWN RISK / CONOCEME BAJO TU PROPIA RESPONSABILIDAD - :o)
I´m my best friend and my worst foe.
I´m a contradition, wether that´s negative or positive, time will tell eventually.
I need challenging, motivating changes constantly. Nothing should be static for too long.
I try to be positive and always focus on seeing the half full glass.
PHILOSOPHY
I feel I´m not totally defined, but i´m interested in ancient cultures and different philosophies.
I try to have a critic sense and be reasonable, but i´m also a passionate soul...
I wanna get new experience, so I try not to follow a routine for too long.
"La felicidad es eternamente momentánea". Once you obtain what you wanted, you immediately want something different. Therefore, I guess it´s not about finding something, but about looking for that and... enjoying the ride.
My final goal would be achieving more life experience, to gain wisdom and help the people i meet along the way.
El tiempo perdido disfrutado, no es tiempo perdido.
I believe in karma, so I think you get what you have given or what you will give.
also we probably stay here to improve ourselves as human beings, until we get enlightenment, so I also consider reencarnation as an interesting concept. dunno if it might be true or not, but it´s still interesting
POLITICS AND RELIGION IN MY VERY PERSONAL OPINION, ARE WAYS OF MANIPULATING PEOPLE, IN ORDER TO CREATE AN "ORGANIZED" SOCIETY.
i love spirituality, but i'm against people who use concepts in a twisted way to obtain power over their neighbours
i believe nothing´s writtten unless you plan to work hard to make it possible
I´m something between an atheist and an agnostic.
I wonder if it´s possible to have a love affair that lasts forever....

What I Can Share with Hosts
Understanding Maturity not as sticking to a routine, but as getting to know who you really are.
I think you will be happy the day you learn to stop in the middle of the sidewalk in autumn and have the capacity of being surprised by the magic which lies in the leaves falling from a tree.
