Memoir
What Can I Use To Remind Me?
My morning rituals are attached to the refrigerator as a reminder note. Does it work? I never look at it. I go to the fridge to get something out of it. I will occasionally check to see when a graduation or baby shower is scheduled. Because it’s a morning ritual I shouldn’t be forgetting but I do!

To keep the love safe
Part two of my regression experience After the soft clouds and the happy children, for a moment I found myself under the northern lights, in a man's body with strong arms, it was so real and fast that I could only look around and feel how vast the space was in front my eyes and how beautiful and bright the lights were in the dark sky full of bright stars

Liquid relationships that evaporate
Zygmunt Bauman once said that we live in liquid times where nothing is made to last. He spoke of people being treated like consumer goods, meaning that if they have flaws, they are discarded. Or even replaced by updated versions. People are judged by our expectations, and if they can't meet them, they are returned to their origin at an even greater speed than when they arrived. Since expectations never take into account the less desirable things, they will inevitably be rejected for who they really are. People are chosen in the same way that a new car is chosen, with the expectation that it will have certain features and extras that we require, and when we discover that the car has flaws and imperfections, we park it and go in search of a new one.Perhaps we want one that is more beautiful, more powerful, and more fashionable—even a color that we like more—but the car that disappointed our expectations is one that we will never want again.

Proudly Humble
Silent screams, the inaudible murmurs of those who ask for help from themselves. There are days when trying to see the sun is useless; the black storm clouds do not dissipate. Rain falls on our faces in the form of tears, and painful lightning strikes our chest. No matter how much wind the storm seems to bring, it comes without air, an air that is missing with every breath of our being.

No one commands the soul
No one commands the soul. It stays where it is enchanted." A quote by Fernando Pessoa that fascinates me. I have always been a human being who lived through the soul, through feeling, and I always stopped where I was enchanted. I have never wished for something defined by physical or intellectual ideals. I have always been fascinated by the details of simple things, those things that few people notice and most ignore. This is true for people and everything else. I have always made my soul the compass of my heart, even knowing that it is not infallible and that it has often hurt me by leading me to paths and places that caused me pain. But I realized that everything works in a greater consciousness, that every path that leads to something magical has inhospitable places disguised as wonderful gardens. If it weren't like this, we wouldn't be able to see everything from different perspectives, and we wouldn't be able to put the best virtues of our essence into practice.

Galaxy of Love
If I don't fight for you, who will I fight for? You were imprinted on my being even before I was a person here. Everything made sense because it made me feel that authenticity when the soul vibrates. Just one more life, maybe... but this unique feeling is not limited to one life; it is a feeling of existence. It traverses time, space, and any dimension; it is a feeling that is not limited to what can be explained but mainly to what cannot be explained and yet makes so much sense.

The weak condemn
Forgiveness is the greatest virtue of the strong: those who, even in pain, choose to forgive instead of condemning those who cause them that same pain. Who is stronger than Jesus himself, who, in a moment of extreme pain, forgave and even asked the Father to forgive them, for they did not know what they were doing?
