Oogway: My friend, the panda will never fulfill his destiny, nor you yours until you let go of the illusion of control.
Shifu: Illusion?
Oogway: Yes.
[points at peach tree]
Oogway: Look at this tree, Shifu: I cannot make it blossom when it suits me nor make it bear fruit before its time.
Shifu: But there are things we *can* control: I can control when the fruit will fall, I can control where to plant the seed: that is no illusion, Master!
Oogway: Ah, yes. But no matter what you do, that seed will grow to be a peach tree. You may wish for an apple or an orange, but you will get a peach.
Shifu: But a peach cannot defeat Tai Lung!
Oogway: Maybe it can, if you are willing to guide, to nurture it, to believe in it.
Shifu: But how? How? I need your help, master.
Oogway: No, you just need to believe. Promise me, Shifu, promise me you will believe.

You know sometimes you can eat just because you are hungry, without really liking your food. Sometimes you eat and get full with something nice that you wanted, but doesn't drive you crazy. Like chicken nuggets. You never say "WOW I loved this meal with chicken nuggets", but it's cool. But sometimes, you order something that you haven't tried before, and it is amazing, and you just get full with it and you know that this is the thing that you never knew you wanted.

Today has been one of the best days since I arrived to Germany, suddenly after a great night with my favorite food, nice drinks, long talks with friends about memories from childhood (which has common elements no matter where you are from) and pop culture... I have realized that I am totally satisfied, I have this feeling that I am in the right place, suddenly everything is falling in place and I feel grateful for what is happening in my life, for the things I have lived :) and the amazing people that are part of it no matter where they are.

Lightning could strike

“…There’s not an ounce of excitement, not a whisper of a thrill. This relationship has all the passion of a pair of titmice. I want you to get swept away out there. I want you to levitate. I want you to sing with rapture & dance like a dervish…be deliriously happy or at least leave yourself open to be.

Love is passion, obsession, someone you can't live without. If you don't start with that, what are you going to end up with? Fall head over heels. I say find someone you can love like crazy and who'll love you the same way back. And how do you find him? Forget your head and listen to your heart. I'm not hearing any heart. Run the risk, if you get hurt, you'll come back. Because, the truth is there is no sense living your life without this. To make the journey and not fall deeply in love - well, you haven't lived a life at all. You have to try. Because if you haven't tried, you haven't lived…”

“Stay open. who knows? Lightning could strike.”

Things are gonna change,
Gonna drink less beer
And start all over again
Gonna pull up my socks
Gonna clean my shower
Not gonna live by the clock
But get up at a decent hour
Gonna read more books
Gonna keep up with the news
Gonna learn how to cook
And spend less money on shoes
Pay my bills on time
File my mail away, everyday
Only drink the finest wine
And call my Gran every Sunday
Resolutions
Well Baby they come and go
Will I do any of these things?
The answers probably no

But if there's one thing, I must do,
Despite my greatest fears

Luck II

The Colorado Lottery has been investigating a 21-time jackpot winner, but his "system" for getting lucky in the Cash 5 game might just be that he and his family play constantly. http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,477686,00.html

I just remembered about an article I read once in facebook about luck, related with the story above. In the article it was mentioned the book "the luck factor" ( http://www.theluckfactor.com/) according to it there are some differences between lucky and unlucky people:

Lucky people...

Create, notice and act upon chance opportunities
Use intuition to make successful decisions
Expect the best for the future
Transform bad luck into good fortune

So basically lucky people are luckier, because they tend to be exposed to situations where luck can pay off. They take more Risks. People who feel unlucky avoid situations where luck has a big influence.

So let's get Lucky: ACT MORE, RISK MORE!!

The influence of strangers in your life...

2010-02-05T05:45:00.010-05:00

Yesterday in the metro a passenger in front of me called my attention, he was speaking in french but suddenly said a sentence in English: " when you put water in a glass, it becomes it, it becomes the glass" and then switched to French again I got curious about what he meant with this and remembered a really cool theory that I heard in one of my airplane trips and I found fascinating as I am passionate for all the theories regarding human interaction and communication. The theory is: "Consequential strangers".

According to Wikipedia:

"Consequential strangers is a term used to describe all relationships other than family and close friends. Also known as "peripheral" or "weak" ties, they lie in the broad social territory between strangers and intimates (see Definition below). The term was coined by Purdue University professor Karen L. Fingerman and further developed by journalist Melinda Blau, who collaborated with the psychologist to explore and popularize the concept." [1]

^{"Most of us walk through life interacting with people who skirt the edges of our social circles without realizing that they’re as important as our intimates. They punctuate our days, but we take them for granted: our coffee person and car mechanic, our coworkers and fellow volunteers, a golf buddy, a teacher, and most of our Facebook “friends.” They are all consequential strangers –- people who bring novelty and information into our lives, allow us to exercise different parts of ourselves, and open us up to new opportunities. They keep us healthy and are invaluable when we’re sick. They fuel innovation and propel social movements, and hasten the flow of new ideas. And they are vital in times of uncertainty." [Taken from:}^{http://www.consequentialstrangers.com/about/ ]}

Are you aware of the strangers in your life?

And you don't really want to go back there, because you like your life and everything and you certainly don't want the bad haircut back, but you look at yourself and your old friends in the picture and you realize you haven't spoken to that person in years, that person you used to speak to every day, EVERY DAY, and you suddenly, desperately miss that person and have no idea how you got to the point where you don't even know where they live."

Last friday I had one of the most emotional moment since I arrived to Belgium!. It was just the therapy I needed after a hard and demanding week full of challenges: I went to a Carlos vives' concert!!.

After it I just think It's amaizing the emotions music can facilitate, and the effect it has in me. It is for sure the best concert I have been in; and the fact that happened in Belgium (and in this particular week) was just perfect...The emotions? I felt like I travelled to my city for 2 hours, I felt proud of my culture, of Colombia, I felt happy, nostalgic, sad, excited, ALIVE!.

I don't like so much this kind of things but it's about Grey's. So, I took the Grey's Anatomy Personality Quiz and it turns out I'm most like Cristina.

Very few people have, or can understand, the sheer determination and drive that propels you, but you're just as fiercely protective of your friends as you are of your own hopes and dreams. If they're smart, your friends already know that. They also know that you're more vulnerable than you seem and are only glad to offer a shoulder to cry on.

Scientists warn of Twitter dangers

2009-04-14T17:36:00.006-05:00

(CNN) -- Rapid-fire TV news bulletins or getting updates via social-networking tools such as Twitter could numb our sense of morality and make us indifferent to human suffering, scientists say.

Scientists say updates on networking tools such as Twitter are often too quick for the brain to fully digest.

New findings show that the streams of information provided by social networking sites are too fast for the brain's "moral compass" to process and could harm young people's emotional development.

Before the brain can fully digest the anguish and suffering of a story, it is being bombarded by the next news bulletin or the latest Twitter update, according to a University of Southern California study.

"If things are happening too fast, you may not ever fully experience emotions about other people's psychological states and that would have implications for your morality," said researcher Mary Helen Immordino-Yang.

The report, published next week in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences Online Early Edition, studied how volunteers responded to real-life stories chosen to stimulate admiration for virtue or skill, or compassion for physical or social pain. iReport.com: Growing pains for Twitter, Facebook?

Brain scans showed humans can process and respond very quickly to signs of physical pain in others, but took longer to show admiration of compassion.

"For some kinds of thought, especially moral decision-making about other people's social and psychological situations, we need to allow for adequate time and refection," said Immordio-Yang.

She said the study raises questions about the emotional cost, particularly for young people, of heavy reliance on a torrent of news snippets delivered via TV and online feeds such as Twitter.

She said: "We need to understand how social experience shapes interactions between the body and mind, to produce citizens with a strong moral compass."

USC sociologist Manuel Castells said the study raised more concerns over fast-moving TV than the online environment.

"In a media culture in which violence and suffering becomes an endless show, be it in fiction or in infotainment, indifference to the vision of human suffering gradually sets in."

Research leader Antonio Damasio, director of USC's Brain and Creativity Institute, said the findings stressed the need for slower delivery of the news, and highlighted the importance of slow-burn emotions like admiration.

Damasio cited the example of U.S. President Barack Obama, who says he was inspired by his father, to show how admiration can be key to cultural success.

"We actually separate the good from the bad in great part thanks to the feeling of admiration. It's a deep physiological reaction that's very important to define our humanity."

Twitter, which allows users to swap messages and links of 140-characters or less, says on its Web site that it sees itself as a solution to information overload, rather than a cause of it.

This function, It says, "means you can step in and out of the flow of information as it suits you and it never queues up with increasing demand of your attention."

Fate...

2009-03-24T00:28:00.002-05:00

"I got to thinking about fate. That crazy concept that we're not really responsible for the course our lives take. That it's all predestined, written in the stars. Maybe that explains why, if you live in a city, where you can't even see the stars, your love life tends to feel a little more random. And even if our every man, every kiss, every heartache, is pre-ordered from some cosmic catalogue, can we still take a wrong step and wander off our own personal milky way? I couldn't help but wonder, can you make a mistake and miss your fate?

Maybe our mistakes are what make our fate. Without them, what would shape our lives? Perhaps if we never veered off course we wouldn't fall in love, or have babies, or be who we are. After all, seasons change. So do cites. People come into your life and people go. But it's comforting to know that the ones you love are always in your heart. And if you're very lucky, a plane ride away."

Strangers on a train

2009-02-06T23:33:00.007-05:00

In recent weeks I have been very involved in the world of electronic engineering, to be more specific I'm doing the final project to graduate, which is aimed at testing the application of a statistical method to predict losses in a network. Because of this, I have been reading about statistics and I've found it reaaally interesting and has amazing applications in daily life.

uncertainty is one of the most important concepts in the theory of information which is a really important one for communications (communication related to engineering); but just yesterday I was talking with my friends and one of my friends came out with a theory that he learned in his communications' classes (related to interpersonal comm) and I just found it very cool the theory is called as "stranger on a train theory", this theory is in fact related with uncertainty, with reduction of uncertainty, and it says that people have stated the need to reduce uncertainty about others gaining information about them. The information gained can then use to predict the behavior of another. So when you are in a bus, a supermarket or wherever the information you have of people is just provided by the senses, the way someone smells or looks like, so you feel the need to reduce uncertainty, and how cool is to reduce uncertainty :).

Luck...

2009-01-11T01:08:00.009-05:00

One of the most excellent things I like to have is: control, so thinking about that, thinking about losing control on things; I got into the concept of luck, and I found a really interesting definition:

Luck (also called fortunity) is a chance happening, or that which happens beyond a person's control. Luck can be good or bad (as in; Good fortune or misfortune)
references: http://www.answers.com/topic/luck

Then I thought about how it and It's really funny how we can justify everything that happens in our life with luck, but maybe we are not looking beyond, maybe it was not good or bad luck, maybe there is not something like luck, what if everything depends on the decisions you take or the things you do, in the path you chose...Anyway in a different point of view Woody Allen once said:

"People are afraid to acknowledge or to face what huge dependency they have on luck,". "There's a tendency to think we have great control over our lives or some control, but the truth of the matter is that we don't have the control that you think. You think you have control - you think if you get up in the morning, you exercise, you eat right and don't smoke, you will be healthy. But it doesn't work that way - you still get cancer and you still get hit by a bus. So much is luck. But if you face that, it's a very unpleasant feeling. You like to feel 'I have some control over events' ... You do have some control, but much less than you think, and that's why I wanted to make the movie."

Heraclitus was right!!

2008-12-30T13:16:00.005-05:00

About 2 years ago I went through a kind of painful situation, which at the end was like a trauma, I was really scare of living something like that again; it was like when you fall in your first bike ride and doesn't want to take your bike anymore.

Some weeks ago I had to face again that situation, and finally everything went just perfect; In fact better than what I was expecting and now I feel extremely happy. At the end I realized that I was not completely healed from the 2 years ago situation, that I had to face it again, I had to compare it with the new one and I have to accept that I won't go through that again because Heraclitus was freaking right: "You cannot step into the same river twice, for fresh waters are ever flowing in upon you."

Comfortable

2008-12-20T14:01:00.003-05:00

"Sometimes reality has a way of sneaking up and biting us in the ass. And when the dam bursts, all you can do is swim. The world of pretend is a cage, not a cocoon. We can only lie to ourselves for so long. We are tired, we are scared, and denying it doesn't change the truth. Sooner or later we have to put aside our denial and face the world, head on, guns blazing... Denial. It's not just a river in Egypt. It's a freakin' ocean. So how do you keep from drowning in it?

Some days ... the whole world seems upside down. And then somehow, and probably, and when you least expect it, the world rights itself again.We all think we’re going to be great and we feel a little bit robbed when our expectations aren’t met. But sometimes expectations sell us short. Sometimes the expected simply pales in comparison to the unexpected. You got to wonder why we cling to our expectations, because the expected is just what keeps us steady. Standing. Still, the expected's just the beginning, the unexpected is what changes our lives.

A wise man once said you can have anything in life if you will sacrifice everything else for it. What he meant is nothing comes without a price. So before you go into battle, you better decide how much you're willing to lose. Too often, going after what feels good means letting go of what you know is right, and letting someone in means abandoning the walls you've spent a lifetime building. Of course, the toughest sacrifices are the ones we don't see coming, when we don't have time to come up with a strategy to pick a side or to measure the potential loss. When that happens, when the battle chooses us and not the other way around, that's when the sacrifice can turn out to be more than we can bear" Grey's anatomy

Changes...

2008-10-28T20:53:00.002-05:00

Today I was thinking how difficult can be changing, as someone said Change is the only constant in life, we are unavoidably exposed to changes, but thinking about that, sometimes you don’t have the last word on the changes that happen in your life they just happen and when they happen the reaction can be not that good; so, it would always be better to have the control of changing, right? But why we are sometimes so scare of changing, being afraid of changing means that you feel satisfied with everything in your life but if it’s like that then a lot of things probably changed before reaching this state, something had to fall, Something had to move to get to this point and if you are not satisfied with something in your life then why so scare of changing, why not taking the risk for improving your life, why not having the courage, why we are so scare even to small changes when this could be one key thing to succeed...

See once in a while, once in a blue moon, people will surprise you , and once in a while people may even take your breath away. " Grey's anatomy

Barranquilla one year after all...

2008-10-21T22:50:00.003-05:00

Bogota (Link to the post), more than a year ago I was writing exciting things about the place where I was going to live amazing moments of my life, that year changed me in so many ways and helped me to put in place peaces of me..Today I’m living another important moment where I’ve already learned that you have to close the cycles and that the inner peace it’s not affected for how comfortable you are in a place and how far you are from the storm but how comfortable you are with yourself, I’m definitely in my place: Barranquilla.

The regular temperature is 28º,it has amaizing places like bocas de Ceniza, historical placesl ike “viejo prado”, Museo romantico, Amira de la rosa.. We have the carnival, which is the most important and popular carnival in Colombia, where is reflected all our diversity, the spirit and the hapiness of our people.We have around 1 million of people and probably Barranquilla doesn’t have obvious stars to show, to discover it you have to eat raspao, butifarra, to go to eat chuzo desgranado with your friends, being in a Guacherna, have been in an “aguacero” playing with your friends, have felt the need of dancing when hearing Cumbia....

The secret of success

2008-10-21T21:39:00.001-05:00

"A couple of hundred years ago, Benjamin Franklin shared with the world the secret of his success. Never leave that till tomorrow, he said, which you can do today. This is the man who discovered electricity. You think more people would listen to what he had to say.

I don’t know why we put things off, but if I had to guess, I’d have to say it has a lot to do with fear. Fear of failure, fear of rejection, sometimes the fear is just of making a decision, because what if you’re wrong? What if you’re making a mistake you can’t undo?The early bird catches the worm. A stitch in time saves nine. He who hesitates is lost.

We can’t pretend we hadn’t been told. We’ve all heard the proverbs, heard the philosophers, heard our grandparents warning us about wasted time, heard the damn poets urging us to seize the day. Still sometimes we have to see for ourselves. We have to make our own mistakes. We have to learn our own lessons. We have to sweep today’s possibility under tomorrow’s rug until we can’t anymore. Until we finally understand for ourselves what Benjamin Franklin really meant. That knowing is better than wondering, that waking is better than sleeping, and even the biggest failure, even the worst, beat the hell out of never trying."

If I have to select a word to describe how have been the last three month I should say: Motion; and I just love it!. I love Bogota but the truth is that I've not been there more than one month and is fascinating :p. Three month and a lot of memories: Ubaté :), Manizales, Pereira, Panamá, Guatavita, Turquia!. And soon: Manizales and Bucaramanga! :).

Some pics:

In less that a month I will be moving to Bogotá, and… how do I feel? WONDERFUL! Bogotá is my favorite city after Barranquilla. I believe my love for the city started about 5 years ago, the reason? maybe this love is caused by some “cachaco” gene lost in my DNA, maybe the weather or maybe because the city has been my refuge in some situations, no matter which is my deep reason, there are some facts that definitely support my affection for the city: Bogotá has about 58 museums, 62 art galleries, 45 theaters, 94 malls, 161 national monuments, beautiful natural parks, more than 40 movie theaters, 40 universities, amazing restaurants, modern buildings and infrastructure, 75 parks for entertainment like: Salitre Magico, Panaca Sabana, Maloka, Mundo aventura, Bogota has the best potable or drinkable water of Latin America, is the book’s capital of the world declared by the UNESCO, CONCLUSION: I just can’t wait to get to know all those good things Bogota has!

Y tu, ¿que sabes de Bogota?
