MY FAMILY IN CHRISTMAS

As soon as December starts we take out our decorations which must include “el pesebre” or crib, the Christmas tree,green, red and white candles, angels, and lights that we display on the windows of my home.
We meet for Christmas and spend the afternoon of the 24th December at home, dressing the Christmas tree and preparing food for the evening celebration.

We eat popular dishes on this date like buñuelos, pork, veal, stuffed chicken, turkey, cookies, salads, fruits, vegetables and it`s so common eat mashed potatoes.

At night we celebrate the birth of Christ eating together, Christmas dinner is served around 9 pm, before the dinner we pray to bless our lives, after the dinner we talk about everything and dance with the neighbors.
Later in the evening some families attend Christmas midnight mass at the local church.

At midnight we can open the gift that each one put it under the Christmas tree, it`s the best moment for me, and we say Merry Christmas to one and all, including the neighbors.

Christmas traditions in my family are grounded on religious beliefs and you will find all rituals to be centered on the character of Jesus Christ.

HIKING AND CLIMBING IN THE RAIN FOREST

I love the nature, so I want to tell you about my experience in SAN GIL, It´s the most extremely exciting and totally lovely experience , I´ve ever had.

I was walking for 35 minutes in the rainforest until I got waterfall. I fell many times when I was walking, but that was really fun with the branches on the trees, mud and cows..It was incredible
I was able to climb a little part of the waterfall, you can see in the images, and I had to cross the waterfall, it was wild.

My character

2010-09-06T20:46:00.000-07:00

Mahatma Gandhi is an icon in India in the same way that Abraham Lincoln is to the United States of America.
I have the highest admiration and awe for Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi (also called the Mahatma Gandhi).
the adjectives of Mahatma Gandhi are:
spiritual
honorific
ethical
modest
wise
simple
humble

Gandhi's Words:

-Freedom is like birth. Till we are fully free, we are slaves.
-Your character must be above suspicion and you must be truthful and self controlled.
-Corruption and hypocrisy ought not to be inevitable products of democracy, as they undoubtedly are today.
-Faith gains in strength only when people are willing to lay down their lives for it.
-Today machinery merely helps a few to ride on the backs of millions.

what is my personality type????

I don´t like to write about myself , anyway I think I should learn something about that, and it´s mean, I´ll learn so much about myself, it´s the way.
I would like to say that I tend to find my motivation an inspiration from within and from the LORD, I´m so positive most of the time, but I can keep both feet on the ground.
(I identify with the bird on the left. I like the free and fly high.)
I´m not selfish at all, sometimes I speak loudly, but It´s because I´m a bit organized.

I don´t have impeccable taste in clothes, but I like to see me and feel me well, so I think that I dress a little well.

I´m so easy to get to know,because I´m really sociable(most of the time), sometimes I prefer to interact in one on one situations. I prefer to have a few people who are very dear to me,this way makes people are totally honest and more reliable than a ton of friends.

I am very down to erth and so practical in my studies, for that I´m a pretty quiet in weird situations but I like so much to be the leader in a lot of groups.

I would like to add that I tend to adapt well to change, and I like the change. it´s fun

I value more empathy, harmony and forgiving than logic, justice and fairness.

To finish my description I live my life with integrity, originality, vision, and creativity. I´m completely hardworking, ethical, and helpful.

I´m totally independent and stubborn, I rarely stray from my vision, and I can't stand stagnation.
