A book and a movie...

Hello everyone! I hope you are having a nice day.

Today I want to recommend you a book and a movie I like. It is hard to mention just one of them, because each one gives a mesagge, and a mesagge said in the right way can cause a significant impact in the person that recieves it. Sometimes that impact can be so deep that makes you take decisions, changes your way of doing things or even your vision of the world. So here are two powerful mesagges I have recieved.

First Impact: The Bible.

This is the most powerful book I had ever read, it is so good that I'm still reading it! I can't believe that every page I read can have so much treasures to my daily life. In fact, that's why I'm taking so long to read it completely, because I prefer to taste every treasure I find instead of swallow all the book at once.

The Bible tells the story of whole humanity, from the beginning to the end, focussing in one nation only: Israel. Certainly, you will understand that there are a lot of stories on it and that could make you think that there are a lot of different mesagges but, if you read them, you can see there is a guiding thread among all of them: Jesus. The main mesagge in the Bible is:

God loves us and has a plan for us
Sin separates us from God
Jesus reconcile us with God
Every one must decide if she/he wants to be reconciled with God.

Second Impact: Hidden Figures.

I liked this movie so much when I saw it because I was reading a book related with going beyond your confort zone and do significant things, and these movie has a lot of people that didn't give up because of the circunstances they where living or all the problems they had to get their objectives. When I watched it I said to myself "wow! are you crying for your problems that are nothing compared with the problems they had?". That motivated me to change my attitude at the time of facing challenges. I started seeing them as an oportunity of growing instead of a gigant coming to crush me.

Here it is the trailer if you want to watch it.

I also recommend you to read the book I was reading. It is: "Do hard things" by Alex & Brett Harris.

God Bless you :D

Two beautiful windows... (the eyes)

Your eye is like a lamp that provides light for your body. When your eye is healthy, your whole body is filled with light. But when your eye is unhealthy, your whole body is filled with darkness. And if the light you think you have is actually darkness, how deep that darkness is! Matthew 6:22-23New Living Translation (NLT) source Hello everyone! I hope you are doing well. The eyes are amazing to me because of the wonders they allow us to see, how beautiful they are themselves, the machinary they have and because they are a master piece of optics. They play the role of reciebing the light reflected or emitted by the objects and lead it to light-sensitive receptors that tranduce the light in electrical impulse that is processed and interpretated by our brain as images as we know them. They are located in the upper front half of our face, with the nose between them. In our skull they are ubicated in the orbit. Their size is about 24 mm of diameter and it's weigh...

Did you ever hear about Carver?

Hello everyone! I hope you are having an excellent weekend so you can rest and be prepared for this month's first week. In this opportunity, I'm going to tell you a little bit about an important scientist, botanist, chemist and inventor from USA. His name is George Washington Carver and his story is inspiring. [SHS 007806; Courtesy of the Tuskegee Institute, Dictionary of American Portraits ] He was born in Diamond, a southwest Missourian town, just when slavery was abolished. His birth date is uncertain but it's around 1865. He was raised by his mother's owners: Moses and Susan Carver, after the kid and his mother where kidnapped and Moses could only recover George. Due to he was too young for working in farm activities he helped at household tasks. It was then that his love for plants started. Susan Carver taught him how to read and write, and when he was about eleven years old he left the Carver's cabin looking for a black school where he could study. ...

Postgraduate studies?

Hello everyone! I hope you are doing well. Today I am going to travel far in the future, as I did in my previous post. We are going to talk about a course that you would like to take when you finish your major degree. When I heard this I said "What?! Are you crazy? How am I going to talk about what I am going to do after I graduate if I'm not even close to gradute yet?" Anyway, I will try to look beyond that I have in front of my eyes and tell you what I would like to do. I'm just joking. I do use to look at the future but I question myself about if it is going to be as I imagine it. I'll tell you about that later. [SOURCE] Answering the question about what I would like to do when I finish my major degree I would say taking a Master in Biochemistry. I would consider taking this course in the future because it's objective is giving a high level background in Biochemical sciences and its aplications to professionals and university graduates. I ...
