Nuestras acciones sí influyen en la vida de los
demás.
Pido a Dios, al universo, a mí hada madrina, a
mí Ángel de la guarda, a Evangeline, y a todas las fuerzas poderosas por allí,
que llenen mi corazón de comprensión, empatía, compasión y mucho amor y
sabiduría para saber distinguir entre querer tener la razón por mis juicios y
creencias, y apoyar a quien más requiera cualquier cosa que yo tenga para dar.

Grill Master
Desde Hermosillo, Sonora, donde se encuentra la mejor carne! Lo comprobé! Excelentes chefs, también! Obiamente me la pasé comiendo todo el día la más deliciosa carne en sus más deliciosos cortes. También había cerveza, calor y pizza con lentejas (¿estará demás decir que sabía deliciosa también?) hecha en asador. O sea.
Hubo concurso y probé los platillos de casi todos los participantes, y aunque el equipo al que yo apoyaba no ganó primer lugar (ganó segundo, creo) según los jueces, si gañó la primera posición según la preferencia del público.
¡Felicidades y nos vemos en Monterrey para la final!

Reflexión de hoy
Asumir mi parte de responsabilidad en cada cosa que pasa,
que genero, que creo, que invento y que alucino en mi vida, me da poder. Poder
para tomar posición y actuar, poder para cambiar, y para levantarme de las
caídas, poder para aprender de cada experiencia y y crecer. Poder para nunca
ser víctima, de Perengano o Mengana, de las circunstancias, del tráfico, la
lluvia, la suerte, los papás, la pareja, el miedo, las cucarachas, la falta de
sueño, la VIDA.
Las cosas: pasan; y no: ME PASAN.
La gente: hace; y no: ME HACEN.
Note to self: Déjate de chingaderas, porfitas.
