The Chaos by Dr. Gerard Nolst Trenité

They say, if you can pronounce correctly every word in this poem, you will be speaking English better than 90% of the native English speakers in the world.

If you were an adjective ...

This year is being simply fantastic !!!! why? Because, I've decided to learn English with my little daughter, and we are discovering many fun ways to learn...one of them is through videos, songs and listening good stories like this.. ....


Other, Another, The Other, Others

I needed  this explanation, because   I've used them wrongly many times.




Kissing a Fool ...

The Musical Time Machine !!!!

This is the best way to travel not only around the world, but also over through the ages....You only have to pick a country, pick a decade, then sit back and listen to some great music from 1900 to now!

If I forget my smile somewhere in ...

The Darknest Valentine ....

Well, finally the day is here ... Many expect it, others fear it, why?. As I see it, because we are basically social beings and therefore we need the 'other' to understand the world around us and to try to understand ourselves through others.
 
To love someone we need to transform us, and  of course this process could become so complex. It is so complex because since we are children, the world  has taught us,  has sold us a very naive face of love. For example, we have been told us that to be happy we have to have a couple. However, this situation  does not always happen. Maybe over time living as a couple or with the inappropriate couple we will be more unhappy.

Another fallacy that the world has sold us, is that after having a couple or getting married, we will  live happily ever after ... until you realize that love is transformed. Thank God this is transformed!!!! Otherwise we would never reach maturity.

In short, at this point I believe that love is more puzzling than we are told. For these reasons, I like this video because, although it may has a pessimistic tint it is very real, as real as error and forgiveness.

It was love at first sight ...

Although it may seem incredible, the destiny gives us amazing things when you least expect it... In my case,  I've rediscovered a very special memory some days ago. Since then, I couldn't avoid humming his songs !!!!


I loved him, I loved his music, his poems.
Thanks to him I've known many styles of music.

 If you want to know more about him, I recommend you this interview: 'Encuentro en el Estudio'. this is a good summary of his career.

All that we share ....

Sadly, many people are only insist on 'seeing' the differences ....leaving aside the important things that could lead us to unite.


Peace of mind ...

Without a doubt, the best way to start a 'perfect' day like this, would be the moment when I take a cup of coffee while I'm reading  the newspaper and  listening a song like this .....


Hummm I wouldn't change this moment for anything, 
so it is the best thing since sliced bread !!!!

Time capsule

Since an activity about time capsules was proposed in my English class, I have kept thinking about what I would put into one of them. Immediately, the name of my favorite author came to mind: Yasunari Kawabata. However, it was a very arduous task to choose just one book, but I finally decided one: Beauty and Sadness. I wish the future would hold the certainty that reading was a food that not only nourished my mind but also my soul.

The second object in which I thought was music -I have to sigh- so this decision is still harder than the previous. But I think I would choose some Jazz CD. I must confess that I still have not decided on just one CD. However, there is no doubt about the style: yes, it definitely has to be Jazz! Because through this style, I am able to fuse different sensations.

My third object would be a crochet needle. If I believe in reincarnation or if I had some previous life, I would certainly be reincarnated as a spider. I love knitting. It's a hobby that I enjoy because I think weaving is the art of creating, of combining, of dreaming and telling stories. And this is how I understand life: like a large and colorful loom, like that piece in which we draw our dreams and illusions, our failures and disappointments.

The colors of the wool and the different textures that we apply in our loom are friendships, they are all the people who we are getting acquainted with, who transform us throughout our life; these wool & colors are all the people with whom we grow, and each one of them will provide an unrepeatable color and tone that will make our loom unique and unmistakable. In this way, our loom will be interwoven by our experiences, learnings, disappointments, challenges and so on.
