An Important Lesson I've learned (Ninoska)

                                                My best company it's ME

     A rainy august day in Caracas long time ago, I was taking a coffee with a friend and we were talking about our lives.  I started complaining about how boring was my life, for example, if I wanted  go to the beach, cinema, park or jogging, I always had to call friends and if they couldn't come, I stayed at home ... angry (with myself of course).

    He listened to me carefully and finally told me:

 "What about if you go to the beach, cinema, park or jogging, alone? 

Are you so bad company for yourself? "

  Wow, that question really slapped me.  Since that day I can go out, with friends or without them, I enjoy of myself and also I found it like an opportunity to go inside me and to learn from new people, places or events.  Yeahhh !

Since I arrived in Montreal I’ve been living the peace that I looked for. 

A few years ago I had an opportunity to live something like that. I received an offer for working in a big company, in a small city of another state of Brazil, which is supposedly safer than Sao Paulo. 

It was everything that I wanted. 

Then I did a lot of interviews and I spent my days researching about the company, the city and its culture, history and things. 

But something happened and I wasn’t called anymore. I haven't known the reason so far, but in that time I almost fell in depression.

My mom used to tell that when one door closes, another one opens, 

and she was right.

Life has given me another chance and it has been better than last one.

My life lesson

"In matters of love and hate we are like newborns." Eduardo Punset.
Maybe this story is not talking about my own experience but I was right there when it happen.
Long time ago, like one year, my brother met one of his girlfriends, her name was Lizbeth. They met in a party and for an strange reason they fall in love, ten months later they broke up and my brother felt in depression, I was to young to understand what he felt in that moment but I remember what may mom said to him "I'm not here to said you that she was the worst woman in the world or start to talk about all of her defects because she is a human and she the reason why she end with the relationship. But let me tell you something, in your life you will met a lot of people, you will have a lot of girlfriends that you will love with all your heart, it's part of the life and you know that love is one of the amazing feelings a person can feel, but you always need to repeat in your head that the life is to short to suffer for one person."
To my brother was to difficult to understand the point of the conversation but when I gros up and remember that I understand what she said.
She wants that we learn about every experience that we have, good or bad, because every episode of our life it's a lesson and if we analyze it we won't get stuck there. [Megan]

what was the most impressive life lesson you've ever had so far? [KIMCHI]

I've learned many important life lessons so far.
For one thing, when I attended a baking academy, I met a lot of good people who were interested in baking there.
One of them is a man who is older than me and he was working as a culinary staff at a university foodservice facility.
And also he was very dexterous in making something with his hands.
One day, when I worked with him in a group at the academy, suddenly he asked me that "How did you start to learn baking?".
So I said "Since childhood, I loved drawing and making something with my hands, so I wanted to learn how to bake them and how to decorate them."
And then he said "There is no eternal workplace, there is a eternal career though."
I'm not sure that It makes sense. whatever.. that sentense was very impressive at that time for me.
When I decided to learn baking, some friends told me that a patissier is not a good job to earn a lot of money.
However, even though i couldn't earn many money, I wanted to have a job that I really want to be.
Actually, I still have a long way to go, but I'm working on it.
Nobody can stop me

An important life lesson I've learned by Gloria Stephania Yllán Garza

I think that always we are learning. Every day is a transformation, revelation, every day is a new equation.

I'll never forget the words that my grandfather said to my father, and my dad said me: I give you all opportunities for you can finish your career, find a need job, to eat my food. You shouldn't return me anything, because If I gave you, it's because I love  you.

But when you'll have kids, you gonna have return all that I gave you. But for your kids, you'll have to sacrifice the things that I sacrificed for you . You have to love them.

The parents always give us their infinity love, beacause they want to see us happy.

AWESOME [KIMCHI]

Hi there ,
today I'm going to talk about the word awesome.
Have you ever thought of the meaning of the word awesome? What does the word awesome mean ?
What can you imagine? As for me, I haven't thought of the meaning of the word awesome deeply.
Today after school, I was in the cafe-teria doing my homework.
Fortunately, my Venezuelan friends were there.
Right away I asked some questions to one(bri) of them.
I asked how can you explain the meaning of the word awesome.
She said that someone makes you surprised and feel good , could be called awesome.
It means, a person who has many interesting things that other people don't have, is awesome.
In addition, she added that a person who has something big at night, is awesome.. well..
And then I asked another Venezuelan friend(chri) the same question.
He told me that he is awesome because he said he is the most polite person on earth and
he can dance and drink all night and he can make many friends easily.
When I heard that a person who makes many friends easily, is awesome, I thought I can't be awesome.
because i'm still afraid of speaking to strangers.
Also I think compared with oneself, a friend who does well that I can't do well, is awesome! !!!

MERCI

Transparent, but not invisible :D

 Transparent person means someone who is clear, more than sincere with other people.
 

I'm transparent when it appears from my unconsciousness, but sometimes when the judgments appear, the transparency become opaque and could be seen as diplomacy.
Being Transparent requires strong self-confidence.
