June 23 in Trinidad. Everyone enjoyed carnival laughs, jokes and much dancing. Suddenly we were without electricity so we got to talking.
There we were waiting, for many it was a bad time. For me it was one of the most opportune moments to discover that we are not just an island in the middle of the Caribbean to which most tourists come to capture images and enjoy.
His message was clear, and yes, we can live with little, but mostly live. Not having money is no problem even if they see all, not being happy itself is a bigger problem. We learn to live and accept what we are and how we are. We are social but not through the virtual world. We are social through physical conversation where you can feel the content and the power of words to feed back and nurture the wisdom. We connect to know the social world around us, to be open to new experiences and provide help to those who truly need it. We aim to look beyond the facade of a people or a person where you can not only capture physically but her inner beauty.
23 de junio en Trinidad y todos disfrutábamos del carnaval entre risas, bromas y mucho bailar y de pronto nos quedamos sin corriente eléctrica así que nos pusimos a conversar.
Su mensaje fue claro, y sí, podemos vivir con poco pero sobre todo vivir, no tener dinero no es problema aunque así lo veamos todos, no ser felices sí es un problema, aprendamos a vivir y aceptar lo que somos y cómo somos, seamos sociales pero no a través del mundo virtual sino por medio de una conversación física donde se pueda palpar el contenido y la fuerza de las palabras para retroalimentar y nutrir la sabiduría y conocer el mundo social que nos rodea, a abrirnos a nuevas experiencias y a brindar ayuda a quienes verdaderamente lo necesitan, a mirar más allá de la fachada de un pueblo o una persona donde no sólo se puede captar lo físico sino su belleza interior.
