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:

  1. God loves us and has a plan for us
  2. Sin separates us from God
  3. Jesus reconcile us with God
  4. 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 photographs I like

Hello everyone! I hope you are having an excelent test period, and if you are not, I hope you have the willingness and calm to lern about the things you fail, understanding that you are in a growth process. This time I'm going to share with you some photos that are special for me and I really like. At the end, I want you to make a meditation about what they represent for you. "Rayitos de Sol" This was the second photograph I took with my cellphone about two years ago. It shows some summer flowers in my father's house garden and three apiaries behind. I like this photo because the colors are really beautiful and well defined. You can clearly see each flower separately. Most of all, I like this photo because it reminds me home, my dad (he loves bees), summer and vacations. "Family beside the lighthouse" My dad took this picture of our family, maybe you can see him holding a remote control with his left hand. From left to right, my father, his w...

Summer holidays

[source] Hello every one! I hope you are doing well. Here we go again, we have just talked about the best vacations we have ever had. Now let's talk about what are we planning about the summer holidays that are coming soon, or at least that are getting closer. Along all my life I have always been waiting for vacations to go out to know some new place or to places that we already know to share with my family. For the first time in my life, this summer isn't the case. I'm not that motivated to know a new place, instead I would like to look for a part time job or something like that to earn some money. I would use that money to participate of some activities during the following year so my parents don't have to pay for the expenses of those things.  Although, I would like to go out some place with my family anyway because it is good to share some relaxation time together. Maybe we could go to El Quisco to visit my cousins and spend some time with my grandmother,...

What do you say? Let's talk about the best holidays in our entire life! Wait a second... I don't have one.
