Random Thought

This year I set myself goals. If there is something that defines me is that I really enjoy planning and creating goals for myself. It's a way of keeping myself alive and active.  It keeps me positive and motivated and who doesn't want to feel like that? There are a lot of things I want to accomplish before I'm thirty and so far I'm doing a very good job at getting things done. But there is a lot I still have to do and that makes me excited to live, to be alive. I think slowly you find your purpose in this world when you are truly doing something that makes you happy.  You find that you wake up every morning with this certain adrenaline that makes your heart pump in suspense for what you are about to do next. This feeling is something we can quickly lose if we let ourselves fall into the routine of work and sleep. If you live in New York like me, you find yourself most likely dealing with this often. Which is why you must try and find a balance in your life. How? By getting to know yourself. Look deep and find what exactly it is that you wish to accomplish.


There is something else that I realized and it's that we need to understand that everything in life is a process. You can't try to jump ahead of any steps because that would just make you feel stuck. You have to live and enjoy every step that you have to take in your life, it doesn't matter whether it's good or bad. With this mind set and taking things one day at a time, you can truly find that no matter how tough things get in life, you can find yourself content. I can't promise you happiness because I don't believe there is such thing as living in happiness. We experience different emotions every day and I in particular have crazy unbalanced hormones. I have accepted that I'm never going to be happy all of the time and that's okay. Did you know that when I get too happy I actually get sad? Yup. But I enjoy my happy moments the best way I know how to and I treasure them.

So, did this rant make any sense? I think so.

Los cerebros que se van y el corazon que se queda

El ensayo: “Los cerebros que se van y el corazón que se queda”, de Magali Garcia Rami es magnifico. Me hizo pensar mucho en mí misma porque mi familia inmigró a los Estados Unidos cuando yo apenas tenia 4 años. Lloraba todos los días, extrañando como nadie se imagina a mi país. Especialmente a mi madre que aún seguía allá. A los 22 años que tengo ahora, ya estoy acostumbrada a vivir aquí. Pero no hay día que no piense o hable de mi país y de esa vida cotidiana y tranquila que se vive allá. García Rami menciona en su ensayo que los inmigrantes o cerebros tienden a reunirse hablar de el país que tratan de no añorar y esa es la realidad.               Cada vez que viajo a la Republica me toma unas semanas adaptarme. Ya adaptada, no quisiera regresar a esta país al menos que no sea de visita. Las reuniones entres vecinos, la confianza, y ese precioso mar que nos rodea, me convierte en una persona tranquila y en una persona ...

I Let Go

 When I commit to something, I like to see it through.  I work hard to see it through.   I ignore the signs and I keep pushing even when there's nothing worth fighting for. This year though, I am learning to let go of everything; I mean people, I mean situations, feelings, and anything that doesn't serve me. And I grieve all of this but in a healthy way.  I allow time to be my friend. I give myself words of encouragement. I give my body, food, vitamins, and exercise. I give my brain meditation and therapy. I read. I cry, I talk to my sister, and my friends. I Let Go. It's the best thing I could've done for myself. At the end of the day, is it really worth forcing something that's not meant to be for you?

A Lost Story #NationalNovelWritingMonth2024

 I watched a love story, a telenovela, many years ago.  I was maybe between the ages of 5-7 when they played it on TV. Something about that telenovela has lived forever in my mind. I thought that maybe with technology advancing we could see the story again. After years of waiting, I found the director (I love the power of the internet) and he gave me the terrible news that...unfortunately, the story was lost forever.  I may not be able to watch it again, but I would like to write it down in my own words. This is my project for the rest of 2024 and part of NANO WRIMO 2024. What are you writing about for the month of November?
