Fight for what YOU want/Lucha por lo que TU quieres

Can you recall those childhood days when you dream to be something cool? a firefighter, a teacher, or even a superhero? do you remember those days? do you remember your dreams? my question is... what happened to them?, if you acomplished them, good for you, i'm happy for you, but this is for those ones who forgot their dreams or abandoned them... but even if you think you acomplished "all" your dreams, i'm sure there's something you forgot or something you gave up. Many reasons come to my mind for the why we give those dreams away, 1) people try to persuade us to do "something better", 2) our dreams are "dumb and childish" (c'mon, being a super hero is not dumb and childish, it awesome!) or 3) we just grow up and start looking at life with "adult, grown man (or woman) eyes. Never is too late to do what we want, for example, my mother was 45 years old when she graduated from university, her dream? being a psychologist and she made it, she was my classmate for a year and a half, and she tried really hard cuz' that was her dream and she made it after many years of wait and obstacles. So... do what you really want to do, don't do what others think you should do or be, just be and do what you really want to, don't give up your dreams!!!
Puedes recordar esos dias de tu infancia cuando sonabas en ser algo interesante? un bombero, un maestro, o hasta un super heroe? recuerdas esos dias? recuerdas tus suenos? mi pregunta es... que paso con esos suenos? si los haz logrado, bien por ti, estoy feliz por ti, pero esto es para aquellos que los olvidaron o los abandonaron... pero aunque tu creas que haz alcanzado "todos" tus suenos, estoy seguro que hay algo que olvidaste o que diste por vencido. Muchas razones vienen a mi mente por las cuales mandamos a volar esos suenos, 1) gente trata de persuadirnos a hacer "algo mejor", 2) nuestros suenos son"tontos e infantiles" (vamos, ser un super heroe no es tonto e infantil, es magnifico!) o 3) crecemos y empezamos a ver la vida con "ojos de hombre (o mujer) maduro". Nunca es muy tarde para hacer lo que queremos, por ejemplo, mi madre graduo de la universidad a la edad de 45, cual era su sueno? ser psicologa y lo logro, ella fue mi companera de grupo por ciclo y medio, ella trato muy duro por que era su sueno y lo logro despues de mucho tiempo de espera y obstaculos. Entonces... haz lo querealmente quieres hacer, no hagas o que los demas piensas que deberias ser o hacer, se y haz lo que realmente quieres, no des por vencido tus suenos!!!

WHAT'S REAL?/QUE ES REAL?

Did you see the last top model from a famous clothes line? (if you haven't, lucky you) is that how a real woman looks like? did you see the last music video of a "famous" rap star? is that how a real man behaves and that's the way real man talks about women? did you hear about the man who highjacked an airplane in the name of the Lord? is that the way God communicates and do things nowadays? did you pay attention to the last reallity show with a "famous" person on it? is life about cars, parties, "getting laid", addictions, money and drugs? (and this last one is the most retard of them all) to be respected nowadays, do we need powertrips? mass production of weapons? a brand new, really expensive car? a futuristic looking phone? you got the idea. Should we thank them for the lies they're feeding us? should we follow their example and crash our lifes? destroy our families and marriages?, should we thank them for the "great" example they're setting for the young ones? should we honor those who gain "respect" (or fear) as they dishonor their fellowman? should we thank the media for all the hard blows and confusion it brings to our life, self-esteem and identity? so let me tell you something, let yourself question what influences your life, are you making the best of it as you follow the worst the world can offer? life is not as sweet as it tastes... or looks...
asi que dejame decirte algo,Viste la ultima modelo de una famosa linea de ropa? (si no es asi, suertudo tu) es asi comoluce una verdadera mujer? viste el ultimo video de una estrella "famosa" de rap? es esa la manera en que un verdadero hombre se comporta y esa es la manera en que un verdadero hombre habla sobre las mujeres? escucharon acerca del hombre que seuestro un avion en el nombre del Senor? es esa la manera en que Dios se comunica y hace las cosas hoy en dia? pretaste atencion al ultimo "reallity show" que viste con una persona "famosa" en el? es la vida acerca de carros, fiestas, "acostones", adicciones, dinero y drogas? (siendo esta ultima la mas estupida de todas las mencionadas), para ser respetado hoy en dia, necesitamos abusos de poder? produccion masiva de armas? un nuevo y muy caro automovil? un telefono de semejanza futurista? creo que tienen la idea. Deberiamos agradecerles por las mentiras que nos esta alimentando? deberiamos seguir su ejemplo y destrozar nuestras vidas? destruir nuestras familias y matrimonios? deberamos agradecerles por el "gran" ejemplo que estan dando a nuestros jovenes? deberiamos honrar a aquellos que ganan "respeto" (o miedo) al deshonrar a sus semejantes? deberiamos agradecer a los medios por los golpes duros y la confusion que traen a nuestra vida, auto estima e identidad? dejate cuestionar lo que infuencia tu vida, estas haciendo lo mejor de ella al seguir lo peor que el mundo puede ofrecer? la vida no es tan dulce al provarse... o al mirarse...

Can i see my future today!?/ Puedo ver mi futuro hoy!?

I was playing scrabble with wonderful girfriend Sarah, i was kicking her butt but she was tired so she's taking a nap, the kids went to bed too, but takes forever for them to stop their own revolution, i told them to go to bed and they tried, but later on Adam came crying cuz' something happenned and he fell asleep on my arms while i was trying to update this blog, so after few minutes of having him laying by my side, i took him in my arms and put him back on his bed, and Sarah still sleeping... so... what's the point of this? (by the way, im listening to the devil wears prada "still fly") me, a self destructive individual, that never agrees with the world and it's trash, that for more than a year and a half hated the world and itself, now i have an amazing girlfriend besides me, two kids to teach and set a good example and a reason to live, they aren't my family (officialy yet) but Sarah saved my life, the kids are teaching me patience and charity, so... again... if you did't get the point of this?... this is the point... if a miserable, full of hate and rage man against others and itself, can find the cure, can find a way to live and to die for, so that means, there's hope for me and the world, and i can say... i'm happy...
Estaba jugando Scrabble con mi maravillosa novia Sarah pero estaba cansada y se fue a tomar una siesta, los ninos tambien se fueron a dormir, pero toma por siempre para deterner su propia revolucion, les dije que se fueran a dormir, y trataron, pero Adam regreso despues llorando por que algo habia sucedido, asi que se durmio en mis brazos mientras yo trataba de actualizar este blog, pero despues de tenerlo acostado a mi lado, lo tome en mis brazos y lo lleve a su cama y Sarah sige dormida... entonces... cual es el punto de esto? (a proposito, estoy escuchando a the devil wears prada "still fly") yo, un individuo autodestructivo, que nunca esta de acuerdo con el mundo y su basura, que por mas de un ano y medio odio al mundo y a el mismo, ahora tengo una sorprendente novia a mi lado, dos ninos a los cuales ensenar y dar un buen ejemplo y una razon para vivir, ellos no son mi familia (al menos no oficialmente todavia) pero Sarah salvo mi vida, los ninos me ensenan paciencia y caridad, entonces... otra vez... cual es el punto de esto?... este es el punto... si un misero hombre, lleno de ira y odio contra el mismo y los demas, puede encontrar una cura, una razon para vivir y para morir, entonces significa que hay esperanza para mi y para el mundo, y puedo decir... soy feliz...

Just to let you know!

Well this is my first entry, i don't expect you, the bored reader, to agree or desagree with the things i'll say, i warn you from the begining that i'll be as honest as i can cuz' you all deserve truth, and that's the idea, to let you now truths that others hide or ignore, as Kurt Cobain wrote in his journal the phrase "read and you'll judge" that's one thing you'll do as you read what i've to say and you, inside of your mind, will create "me" at your own will, at your own risk, cuz' as humans that's what we do, we take parts of a whole and we complete it with wrong information and non accurate points of views of our own, so go ahead and enjoy the ride, i'll be here for a while and remember that i respect you, that's why you'll give you the truth of everything, don't be scared, don't freak out, cuz' you know, that inside of you, you are as screwed up as i am, the difference, i decided to live that way and face my fate, and that's why my life is amazing, hope your life turns into something more exciting, something more dangerous and deadly, full of risks and rated "R" moments, and maybe you'll catch a glipse of how's to be me!!! have a great day...
