Sometimes what we have to be careful with is not with what we know but what we don’t know. Why? Because it’s what we don’t know what can hurt us the most. It’s said that knowledge is power and it is true. But it’s not just knowledge that provides us with power, awareness is also power in its own way. How is awareness power? Awareness is equivalent to a light being shined on something. When you shine the light on something, it’s no longer in the dark. It’s no longer something

Last year was challenging and scary for me because I got to experience something I had never experienced before. It all started with lightheadedness that lasted for days. Then after days of feeling this way, on my father’s second year since his passing, I experienced what seemed like a panic attack. A frightened emotion swept me and shook me to the core. I felt it all in my chest. What I had experienced led me to feeling lightheaded again the next day. I had to go to the doct

What makes me address this topic of vulnerability are two things: 1. as human beings it’s only normal and human to be vulnerable. Vulnerability is what makes us human, what can humble us and we can actually grow from our vulnerabilities. 2. I read an article that was a bit disturbing about someone who I will not mention the name but the fact that some people have mentioned how she uses other people’s vulnerability to exploit them just saddens. Although being vulnerable is onl

This post I want to dedicate it to anyone who has been badly bruised by someone, who has “made” them feel inadequate, wrong, or anything that is negative. My purpose with today’s post is for you not to allow anything or anyone make you become damaged goods because once you allow this, this is like catching the flu, only that it can take a really long time to heal. How can we become damaged goods unintentionally? We can become damaged goods when we allow other people’s issues

On today’s post, I would like to encourage you to do one thing that if you don’t get anything else from this blog, this is one thing that you must do that can dramatically change every area of your life and that is to become an asset. That’s right! For so many of us it is easy to blame other things, people or situations for our shortcomings, our “failures” whether that be in relationships, money, etc. However, none of this helps. All this does is continue the cycle of misery,

What happened to me this passed weekend made me value the way I have been taking care of my body. I flew with some people who were throwing up, four to be exact, and one of them had the flu. Of course the person with the flu I was in contact with since she was at my side and she came close to me to tell me she had the flu. The following day I woke up feeling so drained that I was worried about traveling. I still flew out that night but by the time I was landing at the destina

Creo que todos nosotros sabemos que es importante el ser físicamente saludable. Esta es la parte más visible de uno, haciendo obvio el estilo de vida que tenemos. Aunque es importante el cuidar de nuestro cuerpo, hay otras maneras de ser saludable que es igualmente importante sino más importante ya que cuando estas partes de uno no están saludables, el cuerpo físico también sufre. Es importante ser saludable mental y emocionalmente y de eso voy a escribir hoy. Primero quisier

El mes pasado ha sido un mes estremadamente estresante. La última vez que estuve tan estresada fue cuando mi papá estaba muy enfermo pero este estrés, lo cual fue a causa de mis metas que he tenido, de seguro no es un estrés saludable. Esto me trajo tanto acné a mi cara, tanto que no he visto en tanto tiempo y un decaimiento del cuerpo hace dos semanas atrás, lo cual me llevó a estar en la cama todo el día. Constantemente oía una voz diciendome, “de una manera u otra todo se

My wish for this new year is for you to start the new year with a bam. It is my wish that you have a great year and have the best well-being ever. However, in order to have this, mentally and emotionally you must be right. It is for this reason that I start of this year by suggesting you not to use that crutch. Crutches are for when one has an injury and needs to use a crutch in order to lean on to move forward or move anywhere. That is the ONLY time you should be using a cru

Una de las cosas que puede arriunar el bienestar sin uno darse cuenta es cualquier asunto no resuelto y es de esto que voy a escribir. ¿Por qué escribir sobre asuntos no resueltos? Porque asuntos no resueltos le pueden prevenir de vivir una vida plena. Asuntos no resueltos pueden hacer que usted aleje todo lo bueno y usted no entender el por qué. Asuntos no resueltos pueden hacer que usted persiga todo lo que no es bueno para usted y no entender el por qué. Asuntos no resuelt

One of the things that can ruin one’s well-being without one realizing is any unresolved issues and this is what I will be writing in today’s post. Why write about unresolved issues? Because unresolved issues can prevent you from living your life fully. Unresolved issues can make you push away all the goodness and you may not even understand why. Unresolved issues can make you chase all that is not good for you and you may not understand why. Unresolved issues can make you ho

La semana pasada dije una frase en portugués y no era la manera apropiada de decir esa frase. Era algo tan tonto, usé el adjetivo equivocado para describir algo y una mujer gritó en voz alta, corrigiendo mi portugués. Yo no esperaba esa respuesta de ella y menos de esa manera y no pude evitar el reir. Al ver mi respuesta a cómo ella me habló, ella se dió cuenta de que no debió de gritar de esa manera y pidió disculpas en voz alta y me dijo que ella una vez dijo la misma frase

This past week I said a phrase in Portuguese and it wasn’t the proper way of saying the phrase. It was something so silly as using the wrong adjective to describe something and a woman yelled so loud in front of everyone, correcting my Portuguese. Mind you, I didn’t expect her to respond that way and I couldn’t help but laugh. Seeing my response made her realize that she should not have yelled like that, so she apologized out loud and said that she reacted that way because sh
