ABOUT ME

PHILOSOPHY

These are some of the things I believe in:

I don’t have expectations from anyone and I am not willing to fill the expectations that some might have of me. I believe expectations lead to disapointment and sometimes even to hate.

I cannot hate because it doesn’t come natural to me

I love life and am looking to discover its simplicity as I go along

I believe that God has given us the power to create our own fate

I believe in the development of the soul and the expansion of consciousness

Algo increíble que he hecho

I think it was 1995, I was volunteering as a translator from english to spanish for a group of missionaries who came to give away glasses (eye glasses) to poor people. It was the 3rd year I did it. Every year the group of ophtalmologists was different. Well, one day... it had been really tiresome working that whole day, it was already dark and we were in a faraway village. A girl came with her mother, she had taken the eye tests and I received the eye measurments (after the first days, some of the translators took over helping in the work of the missionaries)so I had to find a suitable pair for the kid, she had a very, very bad vision. I couldn't find the perfect pair, so I had to open new boxes... it was so exciting to find a pair so perfect. because sometimes the measurements matched but the glasses were way to big for the face they had to fit. So I tried them on her and asked her to close her eyes. We lead her outside, it was already nightime. I asked her to look up and she opened her eyes to see the sky. The look on that girls face, the tears of happiness and the joy of seeing the stars for the first time is something I cannot describe in words but touched me greatly.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

Well, for starters, my mother tongue is spanish, and I love to speak to other people who are learning it. I actually taught spanish at a school in france at a conversation level. hahaha, nothing else comes to my mind right now!! but I am a nice and interesting person to be around with!!!
