Today's Horoscope

Making yourself clear.
This influence is generally good for the flow of ideas and communication between you and others. You are intellectually alive, curious and willing to learn. This is a good day to attend a lecture or a class in some subject. You are willing to have people challenge your ideas and thereby broaden your thinking. At the same time you are happy to share your insights on any subject. Thus all interchange with others today should be fruitful and expansive, both for yourself and for the people you meet. Travel is sometimes indicated by this influence, although usually not over long distances. In the course of daily business you may cover a lot more ground than usual. This is a good day for conferences and negotiations in which it is important to make yourself clear to others.

Where my vocation comes from...

As I tried journalism, I realized that that occupation wasn't for me. Never knew why?

Then I tried Creative Writing. I still struggle to get a sentence finished. I skip letters and words due to writing anxiety. Maybe not for me either.

I graduated 17 years ago in Journalism, and 13 years ago in Creative Writing... A long time ago... And only today did I notice that I could never work as a journalist because I am not a good listener. And I might never publish a novel as I am to anxious to finish writing or reading any fiction. I prefer poetry.

And that explains why I ended up being an international languages instructor because I am a crazy talker.

AlOnE

i MISS MY FRIENDS,

MISS MY FAMILY,

MISS MYSELF.

i MISS MYSELF FULL OF REGRETS

REGRETS OF NOT BEING WHAT i WANTED TO.

i MISS ALL THE ABSENCE WHICH ONCE SURROUNDED ME...

i FEAR ME

i FEEL SORRY FOR MYSELF,

AND i ALSO HAVE OTHER VIOLENT FEELINGS TOWARDS ME -

VIOLENT FEELINGS,

BUT THEY JUST STAND STILL ON THE TOP OF THE SHELF,

RIGHT NEXT TO MY POT OF LOVE WHICH IS DUSTY AND DULL.

EVEN BEING FUZZY AND GOOEY, IT'S JUST ONE.

i RELISH ALL THOSE WHO ARE ALONE,

CHERISH MY LOSSES TOO.

FEAR INVADES MY HOUSE,

BREAKS INTO MY ROOM,

AND IT'LL COVER WHATEVER IT SEES FIT.

NO FRIENDS TO PROTECT ME,

NO FAMILY WHATSOEVER,

AND WHO ELSE IS LEFT TO HELP?

NOT EVEN MYSELF.

i MISS MYSELF.

On becoming Vegan

My dear blog reader and this is also for myself: in April 2015 hubby and I decided on becoming vegan. It took us a while, a long while. But we've made it.

The process started 2 years ago when Roberto won Abu Dhabi Pro for the second time. On a Sunday evening, during a road trip, driving home from Gramado, I came up with the ideia of going vegetarian once and for all. We did. We quit meat, except for fish.

Now it is official. No more milk. No more eggs. No more cheese. Being vegan has never been my personal goal. However, this is the best decision I've ever made in my life. It has been 15 days and I've lost 4 pounds already. I am not very proud of losing weight because I am way underweight. I am eating bigger portions now as I don't to end up skin and bones.

Imagine yourselves reading this blog 11 years ago, you would've been reading messages around this blog template against vegetarianism or veganism for that matter. For a long long long time I refused becoming green.

In conclusion, there's no better time for a life shift. In secret, I have always wanted to be vegan. And this is it :)

My husband on a Friday evening!

A break from anti-demonstration arguments

It is getting more and more serious the Brazilisn partisan reality, the broken society, the extremists from both wings which will forever harm relationships.
Meh

Call me "crazy" cos I'm a VEGAN now!!!

5 Things Emotionally Stable People Don't Do

From RelationshipsSpirituality

1. They don’t get offended by other people’s behavior. (Check)

The way other people act and behave around you, is not about you. The majority of people are so caught up in their own lives and their own responsibilities, struggles, and problems, that that the way they effect you doesn’t even cross their mind. They aren’t intentionally being mean or neglectful, they’re just busy, and everyone can be a bit self-centered on occasion. And that’s alright!

2. They don’t get lost in useless drama and arguments. (Not Check)

Being emotionally stable means you don’t have to stay and fight all the petty arguments and battles that are thrown in your face. You have no reason to stick around and respond to people’s rude remarks and pointless negativity. Don’t respond with insults, just walk away and keep your head high.

3. They don’t let one bad day get them down. (Not Check)

Sometimes the worst things can bring you the best places. Just because it seems like your cursed right now, doesn’t mean that’s what the rest of your life is going to be like. No matter how horrible things may seem, you can’t give up. Just because something bad happened, doesn’t mean it’s the end of the world.

4. They don’t think they’re perfect. (Double Check)

Regardless of what people may think, you can disappoint people and still be good enough. Everyone from Albert Einstein to Michael Jordan and experienced tremendous failure. You’re going to disappoint people in your life and other people are going to disappoint you. It’s not because we’re all heartless, but because we’re human. Don’t expect perfection and you won’t be disappointed.

5. They don’t hate themselves. (Triple Check)

Everyone finds them self drowning the sea of self-hate on occasion. It happens. However, bear in mind, you were not born to feel this way. Some past experience has enforced the message that something is innately wrong with you, and you internalized the lie, accepting it as truth. We need to challenge these false beliefs and bring back our sense of self-respect. It’s going to be hard and it’s not going to happen overnight.

In conclusion: I am far from being emotional stable.  I've gotta learn how to deal with it. That's all.

Long time no blog...

I will be back here soon to rant about 2015, the Brazilian crisis, disappointments, and much more.
