When I was in college I was still a little lost about my career path. Even though I had already chosen Communications, I didn’t know if I wanted to be in TV, radio or any other media. For some time I thought I would be a hardcore journalist; being in the front line of any battle or uncovering major political plots. But then I discovered one of the best columnists in the country. Germán Dehesa wrote for the Reforma newspaper an opinion section called “Gaceta del Ángel”. Read the rest of this entry »

Last time I wrote about being sick I thought the topic would be done and dropped. It turns out i wasn’t physically healed at all. On Wednesdays I woke up with a terrible head-ache that to this day is resisting to go away. The good news is that i finally know what the hell is causing all these call-in-sick days.

Fortunately, this week went by so fast, that I could hardly take the time to make regrets. Let me tell you, I was really excited with a piece of information I had written. I was on fire; my paper was the best I had done in a long time. I was so excited, that the disillusion hit hard when there was no media coverage. So that made me think:

What creation of failure can you
turn into an opportunity to grow?

After taking some days off from writing for the series @Office, I received another meeting request in my inbox from my boss at work. This time I enjoyed it so much, loving every corner of the room, laughing, tweeting and admiring the view. This time I felt lucky, peaceful… proud.

This week was all about visiting the doctor, resting, going out with friends and having meetings near the clouds. So I wondered:

How high do you want to reach?

Yesterday I discovered this wonderful quote by Henry Beston:

“We need another and a wiser and perhaps a more mystical concept of animals. Remote from universal nature and living by complicated artifice, man in civilization surveys the creature through the glass of his knowledge and sees thereby a feather magnified and the whole image in distortion. We patronize them for their incompleteness, for their tragic fate of having taken form so far below ourselves. And therein we err, and greatly err. For the animal shall not be measured by man. In a world older and more complete than ours they move finished and complete, gifted with extensions of the senses we have lost or never attained, living by voices we shall never hear. They are not brethren, they are not underlings; they are other nations caught with ourselves in the net of life and time, fellow prisoners of the splendor and travail of the earth.”

Henry Beston.

So I was curious:

What can you give back to nature?
