One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Living my life and learning from all my life experiencies and turning my living years in wisdom and so far not having stopped the amazing learning trip. Amazing things I´ve seen? well, finding good people in my travels if I have never been hosted by a CS, but I really make friends abroad out of the CS ´s community.People show up their humanity and friendship to me,so far.

Teach, Learn, Share

Life is sharing and learning from each other.Our meaning and context in life come from relationship,it may include all kind of relationship.In the absence of relationship we dont even exist.Making friends,living with people is the better way to get to know better ourselves and for that knowning the other and accepting them.
