Construir cuidadosamente un altar a Dios es loable
Tu alma y energia simbolizados en lo material
Pero dejar que otros contribuyen al estetico de ello
Es mas dificil

Luchar por la humanidad en servicio al TodoPoderoso es loable
Esfuerzos buengastados en animar y unir a la gente
Pero dejar que otros contribuyen en su manera y con ideas distintas
Es mas dificil

Facil es, tener un sueno,
Pero mas dificil
aceptar tu destino

¡Ha! Buen pensamiento. Pero me parece que no estoy de acuerdo contigo esta vez amiga. Si, los sueños son los que nos mantiene vivos, y el destino es parte de los sueños, pues por parte de tus sueños es que haces tu destino. Pero no por dejar salir un sueño es que vas a dejarte llevar por ese destino, luchar por el destino que tu quieres es lo mismo que luchar por tus sueños o al revés, Luchar por tus sueños es lo mismo que luchar por el destino que desees. Que para obtener nuestros sueños muchas de las veces tenemos que luchar demasiado pero através de ello podemos obtener el destino añorado.

estoy de acuerdo contigo mujer. y gracias por empujar los pensamientos aun mas. la linea entre el aceptar de la voluntad de Dios (y buscar al bueno en la situacion, y aprender de ello en vez de quejarse) y hacerse por vencido (sp?) es algo que solo el individuo puede decidir. en este caso, estaba aprendiendo aceptar la voluntad de Dios. y he encontrado muy bellas cosas en mi altar de vida ultimamente!

5 years ago I lived where I live now, in my Grandmother's house. At that time, my aunt and my Grandfather also lived here, but now its just my Grandmother and I. I spent 12-15 hours a day in the laundry room/studio, silkscreening. It was the first time I realized in my life that I didn't constantly 1. Think about boys 2. Think about food. I didn't even realize that I was alone other than my Grandparents and my aunt for 3 months! I had never felt loneliness then, so I was too naive to feel it. Anyways there was a certain day where I went looking for a burrito. This town is totally Mexican so no sabia donde ir pero I just got in my car and drove around till I found one. It was really little and had a painting of a fish and the ocean on it. That burrito was hella good. I remember eating it outside, and afterwards I ate a fresh mango with cottage cheese on top. It's the only meal I remember from the summer. I must have been naive about more than loneliness, because I do...

i discovered in the slowly developing rebirth of the past few weeks that it is time now to "be nice to everyone". its scary to be nice to everyone. i used to open myself to people who i came across that also seemed open. in the past two years i learned that i didn't want to open myself to everyone who came knocking at my door and that to do so was 1.not necessary 2. wouldn't make me a "bad" person. in the past two years i have learned the beauty of the sacred and the sacredness of choosing between good and bad. if it was one thing i learned in anthropology from my professor Marisol dela Cadena, it was that "good" and "bad" are not analytical terms. they dont say anything. they are too polarizing and too assumptive. growing up as a Baha'i, i was always taught to look for the good in everything and always be kind. yet in the past 2 years i have learned that there is good and there is better (if not good and bad), and there are people wh...
