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

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 ...

Second term, here we go!

Hello everyone! welcome back. It's been a long time since the last post. I hope you had a nice term ending, and if you didn't, don't be sad because even if you didn't get what you wanted to, you did an effort for it, you persisted. That makes you grow up and learn... So tell me.  How are you doing? How did you do on vacations? Did you have a good time? Did you rest enough? I hope you did! Did you travel some where? or there is any place or country that you would like to go to in the future? I think that is a question that we all have ask to ourselfs in some moment of our life, when we start dreaming about those longed for vacations that will come... later or sooner, they will come. [source] [source] Let me tell you about the place that I would like to visit: Chile. Why did I choose the same country where I live? Because I know that Chile is a beautiful country and has so much different landscapes due to its great latitudinal length, but I have never v...

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...
