The limit of our knowledge!





Happy New year!
Happy Everything!

This is my first post of 2011 and I wish I can bring something really good for our minds!
I hope you enjoy it!

Everybody knows that we move from place to place, we enjoy it a lot even with the challenges!
When we move to a new place our eyes transform in eyes of eagles and owls! Our minds collect all the data and storage in a secret drawer and after a while we begin the process of judgement and comparison.

When we lived in US we flew several times to Brazil to visit our family, every time we arrived there, I begun to compare both countries, and in the end US was always the winner! Sadly to say that Brazil in that time was a baby comparing to US - an all grown up and strong and almost perfect place to live.
But, things change, now we are here in the Venezuela planet.
Last December we flew to Brazil and my first impression was :"wow what amazing country, so organized, so clean, people are so polite and nice, what a wonderful country"!
That's true! I'm so proud of my Brazil!

Then I though to myself, what is the limit of what we know and what we live?
Before living in Venezuela, Brazil for my perception was a regular country, with a lot of social problems, with bad politicians, with all the security problems , and more.... but know after live here for 7 months, Brazil is a good place to live, even with so many problems, still is a good option comparing to countries like Venezuela, countries which the respect, honest and dignity are second option, countries like that!

So, my dear friend, sometimes we think we know things, but for my experience we really know what we live!

Wish we can live all the things in 2011 and wish the limit of our knowledge doesn't make us blind!

All the best for you in each day of the NEW YEAR!
But before I go, I want to share a good though for 2011.....
"Cast all your anxiety on Him because he cares for you" (1 Peter 5:7, NIV).


With much love,

Saving the napkin!

Hi dear readers, Since a long time, buying things in planet Venezuela is a challenge, but now we are facing the worst  time ever! Some time ago a friend mentioned that in the future, because of the lack of food, we will have to eat soap!!!! Ironically, I can't find my favorite soap!!! Another day a friend suggested me to cut the paper napkin in half, because is hard to find napkins too! So, in the afternoon we cut the napkins! WOW! What can I say? No comments, just trying my best in saving, cutting, stocking, all kind of things. Even with this situation, we are good, we always have food on the table thank God, for the soap, we started using hotel soap we brought from our trip to Hawaii years ago! Every time we travel we bring food, soap, and now the newest product in our list is the toilet paper! LOL It's ridiculous to have to buy toilet paper in another Country, but what can we do????? From almost 3 & 1/2 years ago until now we are having the same problems, even wit...

Hi dear readers, Our little adopted kitty "Bebe" inspired me to write this post. I noticed the little kitty who lives in our backyard is very alert about the beautiful and colorful birds flying from tree to tree in our garden. Every time the birds land in our trees they sing, and the kitty starts looking and planning how to get the yummy bird. This week I saw the little cat very alert about the birds but without success in capturing her lunch! But today around noon, our little cat finally conquered her mission, she had a beautiful yellow bird, she brought the unlucky bird to our door and with her best pose and showed us that her mission was accomplished with  pride and glory! Poor bird, glorious cat!  That's life, if we ignore the dangerous that surrounds us maybe someone get luck with our lack of care. If we don't pay attention to life maybe we will pay a huge price for our lack of responsibility. If we don't see the "signs" maybe we will  be lo...

Hello dear readers, Today I woke up inspired to write this post. I was thinking about the tragedies our world is facing, also about the sadness, the corruptions, the lies, all the terrible attitudes that human beings can have if they do not have moral, principles, conscious and love to share. Why is the world is like that? Why did the world became a hard place to be, why did the moral and good manners became jokes, neglected and are not being seen as the most precious treasure? Here in planet Venezuela, things are worse than ever, the lack of food and other goods are making people crazy. There are lines everywhere to find the basics, there are soldiers with heavy guns all over the cities, the grocery stores are closed to regular clients, only  people who stand in lines can buy the  products that the government allows to sell, these products are controlled  by the government, they control the price and the quantity  that each person can buy. For example they sol...
