Eat Pray and love… What about it??? Traveling to and with yourself to find ourselves!

For the Nth time I have watched it, either from beginning, just a part, just the end, or however, whenever I watch it the same feeling comes… I suppose the same feeling that all women have when they see this movie… “All of us should have the experience, the opportunity, of looking to our own self to be able to go on… – and doing it by traveling, by ourselves, getting to know the world… well…. nothing better…” …and each one of us compares, our lives, our challenges, our thoughts and fears with every little detail of the movie. …and everyone of us think that there is more to do, to truly find the right way in life, and then, we judge all around and think that we should just let everything go and just try… … a big trip, a trip to find ourselves… Suddenly today I noticed, at a point of the movie, when the Bali “wiseman”, tells her – “…the life should be a balance, not only prayer, not only fun…” … and indeed you, your heart, your soul, will tell you when and what will be the right freedom to find the balance of your life – but, as always, as much as you look for, as much as you phantasize it, the furthest away you will be from finding it… you might be your own slave of your freedom, just because you want the freedom so much, that it will “slave” you… It is incredible, how, in our search for our life, we might be, so much, looking for something that might beside you, or indeed inside you – yourself will be there, wherever you go, no matter how far, how long you go, you will just get to know when you notice that “YOU” is there, inside you, and if you do not acknowledge it, you can go for a 10 years trip of eat, pray, love, meditate, rationalize, or whatever else and you will not find IT. Sometimes you will find everything right when you finally find yourself inside you, when you notice that you are your guide, you just have to let your heart and soul guide you, and not fear that it will be too emotional, not rational, too impulsive, or whatever, the day you will give yourself a deep breath, with closed eyes, and feel the air filling your lungs and this energy will disseminate through your skin and the little feeling will increase and the peace will be all you can notice…. …then is the moment to, just relax, keep the feeling, keep the deep breath for 10, 20, 30, 50 more times, and while breathing deeply feel all the thoughts that fill your mind, and select them, just letting it go of the ones that moves, as slight as it can be, you from the nice feeling, and identify the ones that make you more comfortable… …then – you will be finding the way to select your thoughts… …then you will be finding the way to control your feelings…. …then you will be finding yourself and your own control… …then, no matter where you are, for how long, you will have found yourself and you will want this company forever! …and the funniest part, is that, when you find your company so comfortable that you do not need anything anymore – the energies spread in the air will bring another being with the same energy, not needing anybody else, but just wanting to share time with someone who values the respect for the self, whoever it will be! … I have found it, during a nice travel, but it was not to places or countries throughout the planet earth, through the planet Lara, traveling with the yoga and meditation, and it was awesome! I advise everyone to find your own means of transportation and book the same destiny, which is yourself! Good trip, do not forget to share your experiences! Big hugs!

n=√ 1% Only 548 persons having the same energy is enough to make the whole Venezuela shift its energ

Sometimes we think we are not able to change the world… Some people, who are stronger, or more stubborn, dreamers, or just more idealist think that they can change the world. Who is right, who is wrong?? The right is that ANYONE OF US CAN CHANGE MUCH MORE THAN WE THINK! ANYONE CAN CHANGE THE WORLD! There is a scientific study which has proven that the square root of 1% of the population can change the whole population… If the world has 6.780.000.000 inhabitants; 6.780.000.000 X 1% = 67.800.000; square root of 67.800.000 = 8235… 8.235 persons only sum up to the critical mass of the humanity… This means that, if, 8.235 persons in the whole planet keep a conscious mind and a connect heart with love, the whole humanity will keep the same behavior, attitude!!! And how many is needed in Venezuela for us to make a change in the spirit and heart of the whole Venezuela? Venezuela has 30.000.000 inhabitants; 30.000.000 x 1% = 300.000; square root of 300.000 = 548 … Only 548 persons in Venezuela, thinking very consciously and organized, from the heart, how they see Venezuela and the love in Venezuela is enough to change its “spirit”!!! A LOS VENEZOLANOS: Venezuela tine 30.000.000 habitants; 30.000.000 x 1% = 300.000; raiz cuadrada de 300.000 = 548 … Sólo 548 personas en Venezuela, pensando, muy conscientemente y coordinadamente, desde el corazón, en como les gustaría tener Venezuela, y el amor en Venezuela, seria suficiente para cambiar el “espíritus” de Venezuela!!!! Cuantos amigos tienes en Facebook?????????? Three spanish readings for the topic!! 1) 1% de una población es suficientemente necesario para provocar un cambio en el total de esta, es decir que si menos del uno por ciento de una población aprende algo, o lo que es mas importante siente y piensa desde el amor universal acelerando su evolución, entonces el total de la población dará ese salto automáticamente, y la realidad exterior se manifestara desde esa toma de conciencia. http://www.hooponoponochile.cl/columnas-hooponopono/la-raiz-cuadrada-del-1 2) “El físico Dr. John Hagelin de la universidad de Harvard, realizo un experimento en 1993 consistente en llevar 4.000 personas de 100 países distintos a la ciudad de Washington DC, y hacerlos meditar durante un tiempo concreto, probando que durante ese tiempo; y dependiendo de lo que pensaban y visualizaban unidos desde la emoción, en el exterior se materializaba otra realidad medible en hechos físicos, como fue la disminución de la delincuencia o las desgracias mejoras en la economía, etc. El doctor Hagelin llego a la conclusión que la raíz cuadrada del 1% de una población es suficientemente necesario para provocar un cambio en el total de esta, es decir que si menos del uno por ciento de una población aprende algo, o lo que es mas importante siente y piensa desde el amor universal acelerando su evolución, entonces el total de la población dará ese salto automáticamente, y la realidad exterior se manifestara desde esa toma de conciencia.” http://larutadelailuminacion.blogspot.com/2012/06/el-cambio-es-posible-8235-personas-masa.html 3) La teoría de la masa crítica está basada en el experimento del mono número cien, y fue descubierta realizando pruebas con un tipo de mono japonés, el Macaca Fuscata, en la isla de Koshima en 1952. http://www.enriccorbera.com/blog/sin-categoria/la-masa-critica/85

Be gone forever – a good thing? …yes I learn yes (new paradigm broken)

Life is always surprising you, but the best part of it, when suddenly something significant happens, and you have an INSIGHT – and when this insight is revealing something divine, superior and sublime is marvelous – lately this has been with kids… I will tell how it was: Today evening my husband and I were talking about his day, and he was telling how a little girl, from an foundation where we are part (we are working on a foster care of 3 siblings) and when picking up the boy, a girl, friend of them has come to my husband and told “Tito (how they call him there), guess what? I will be gone forever soon!”… She was very happy, she was glooming, and all the children from her place were happy for her. Then we remembered that, some weeks ago we noticed that one boy was no there, and when we asked for Pedro, the children told with a huge smile on their faces “he is gone forever!!!!”… For them “to be gone forever” means that they are given a chance to live with a family, and not seeing the friends any more was not a pain, rather a happiness, a hope, that one day they will also “be gone forever”… 🙂 My husband and I were discussing this when suddenly we had this insight that any children that thinks like this will fit so perfectly to our lives… How God can be so generous? The kids are so fascinated to know the new, to see what is out of the routine, they are so brave that, despite of being unknown, they want a new world, a new life – who is born like this? We were always different from our friends, we always had no attachment, we love our family from the bottom of our hearts, but we also love to travel, we fall in love with friends, colleagues countries, but we still love to know new places, new cultures, new friends… I had always felt bad for being so selfish and not “respecting” the feeling, the nostalgia my family had, I miss them deeply, but I love my life of travel… Suddenly we knew that the dots were connecting, we could see each one forming a figure of the real meaning of many things – yes, this was all our destiny, to come to Venezuela, to change the company, to meet the right people to introduce us to children that might or not, one day be gone forever with us… And then, the “gone forever” had started to have a different meaning, it started to be beautiful, nothing selfish, it does not matter if I will miss the person, but he/she will be happy, we have to let it go, and we have to be happy for them, and we have to be truly happy when anyone is gone forever, even if this person is you, yourself… My best day in life will be when my kids friends will turn them a party to celebrate that, from that day on, they will “be gone forever”, and “be gone forever” with us, to us…. Thanks God people can “be gone forever”!!

Venezuela, what the world should see, blessed Venezuela!

Venezuela…. Why live in Venezuela? Apart from the Venezuelans? Apart from its nature? Apart from its energy? Apart from its diversity? Apart from its passion? 🙂 Let us talk you, who does not live here, through all the reasons why my husband and I decided to choose this country to be our home for the last 2 years and for the next 3, 4 or 5 years!! …and it does matter what happens, we love Venezuela and the Venezuelans! 1) Venezuelans: To work in Venezuela is a dream for anyone who has a management, leadership position. The venezuelans are very flexible, are very quick to implement any idea, whatever appears, you have to stop them, because, if they like the idea, they do not wait a second to start implementing it. On the other side, if they do not like it, they will not complain, but they will directly tell you, but with the intention to quickly find what is the best solution! The Venezuelans make you a better person and a better professional – they will challenge you and they will demand you to be the best to be able to work with them. They are strong people, with lots, lots of passion, as a consequence they are fully committed, but they must believe, they must see a purpose, and if they do, bring your motors, you will need it! The definition is that Venezuelans are leaders, and working with them make all the strengths to be potentialize, as a conclusion I can tell that this is a nation that together can go far, far away, as they have the gift to bring the best out of the other people! 2) Its Nature: Venezuela has everything, beaches, mountains, cold, warm weather, savannas, dunes, forest… The capital of Venezuela has a mountain inside its city, Avilla – not a mountain, but A MOUNTAIN The Caraqueños have the healthy habit to climb it, it is a bless, it makes the capital green, it makes each ride through the autopista a new surprise, climbing it a sunday, till the pajaritos, you will find some waterfalls, yes, waterfalls, in the capital of the country… ok, surprised? Let us talk about; Los Roques – this is a group of islands, 30 minutes from Caracas, yes 30 minutes flight, it is in Caribbean Sea – crystal clear water, warm water… the paradise at earth, one of the most beautiful places I have been! Several other examples can be given as a nature bless; Choroni, Merida, Rafting in Barinas, Puerto Ordaz, and all so so blessed, so much energy… ahá – other point to be in Venezuela; 3) Venezuela energy – Tepuis, Canaima Did you know that the oldest rock formation of the world is in Venezuela? Yes, also where the highest waterfall in world is located, the San Angel. This place was considered one of 10 most irreplaceable ecosystems on earth (http://www.globalpost.com/dispatch/news/science/131123/10-most-irreplaceable-ecosystems-earth-according-science). The energy of this place is incredible, also the Canaima lake, the Salto Hacha, here was the best experience that my husband and myself had, meditating under this waterfall… This all energy comes also from all the virgin forest, and also the Pemons, a tribe which lives in this region and thousands legends make us believe in the magic – and then also a Spanish Priest, Padre Xavier, a saint in our opinion, who loves everybody who is there and goes there, a priest who made us want to get married under the church laws after so many years! This brings to the other interesting and loveable magic of Venezuela, its; 4) Diversity!! Here I copy paste wikipedia, where the best definition can be found: “Venezuela has a rich cultural heritage. From the original American Indians to the Spanish and Africans who arrived after the Spanish conquest, the 17th century waves of immigration brought many Italians, Portuguese, Arabs, Germans, Moroccan Jews, and others from the bordering countries of South America. Venezuela’s heritage, art, and culture have been heavily influenced by the Caribbean context. These elements extend to its historic buildings, architecture,[1] art,[2] landscape, boundaries, and monuments. Venezuelan culture has been shaped by Indigenous, Spanishand African influences. Before this period, indigenous culture was expressed in art (petroglyphs), crafts, architecture (shabonos), and social organization. Aboriginal culture was subsequently assimilated by Spaniards; over the years, the hybrid culture had diversified by region.” and the last point, which I have already mentioned is: 5) Venezuelans Passion!! Each Venezuelan has a different passion, or a different way to express it, but all, without exception, even the coldest Venezuelan (if anyone can find a cold Venezuelan will win THE prize), will show his/her passion much more than one expects! One way to see it, is to check how they dance salsa, how they sing karaoke, how they make jokes of any tragedy or difficulties that they face! The passion of the Venezuelans is something contagious, you can not stay in the country more than 1 year without turning yourself passionate, spiritual, with a different energy, with lots of bless, and with a great way to see the world. … 🙂 Many of you might be thinking that I am crazy and that this is just my eyes, or that I am being too positive, since what is shown these days is something different, but I guarantee that this country and this Venezuelans worth much more than their petrol, and their power is within their level of spirituality and energy, their country makes them live within one the most energetic part of the planet, and their heart is huge! By the end this is basically why I love to be here, it might be that by osmosis or habit I might learn to be as special as the Venezuelans are!

Are you doing what you love right now?? Work life balance or Simply Life Balance?

Are you doing what you love right now?? Work life balance or Simply Life Balance? How many times do we really question ourselves and how many times our answer is: “Yesssssss!!!” without any hesitation, without having to look back, analyze check our last week and having to balance out the bad and say: “hmmm yes….” I had seen this video sometime ago, more or less one year ago, and I had looked back, I had jumped some hours of some days, I have skiped parts of the days and then I have answered – I would not have anything better, so, I have to say that yes, I am doing I what I do like… It was just now, exactly one day before the last day of work for 2013, on the 14th of December 2013, when I understood that “Yes, I am doing what I like, and I have to thank for what I have” is not enough…. :)))) The reason is that, exactly this day, working to my new company, having experienced change, challenge, being brave to start the start again, I saw this video, and by the middle I was jus repeating “yes, yes, yes, yes, I AM doing what I love, I do love what I am doing…” and a smile and some tears came slowly and my soul was blessed! 2013…. what a year, it did start one way and it did finish somehow different, odd and completely unexpected – and BLESSED!!! All the best which I could ever wish, indeed, what I would not even wish as it was so out of scope, did happen in 2013… …and then, the vacations, the most difficult vacations, but the best ever, vacations which would made anybody cry by having to go back to work… I will try to explain – the feeling a pregnant mother has after the maternity leave, the first work day, after being with the baby, and then leaving the baby alone, helpless, and the emptiness of being at work and the wish to be beside the baby… The 7th of January of 2014 was this day for me…. For any reason (this things that happen and you tell – there is no coincidence), I open my computer and the same video here attached was there – and then, I watched it, again… … and again, at the middle of the video, I was shouting . Yes, I do, yes, I do – I am doing what I love, I do what I love – I suddenly noticed that if I would not be in this company, with this so special team – this 7th of January would be my retirement day, I have NO doubt – but instead, I was so motivated, that I was so proud of what I am doing that I just wanted to work hard so I could be THE example for the new generation to come, our new generation, my husband and my generation… Then all my thoughts and my perspective changed – looking at this video I understood the selfless feeling – when you are alone you question yourself – Are you doing what you love right now??? The last days, from the 15th till the 15th of January my question changed slightly: “Are you doing what you love?” to “Are you doing what make you proud of yourself” “Are you doing what you want to give as example to your children” …or better “Are you doing what is your purpose in life???” 🙂 completely shinning soul – I could not choose anything better to do that would fit so perfectly to my purpose in life… Then another insight – there is much more than Work life Balance…. 🙂 Finding what you love and finding your purpose of life in your work is the right way to find your  LIFE BALANCE, and Work life balance is so incorrect, since this separates your life from your work! Now I understand that I do love my life, because my work makes my whole life meaningful and makes me proud to share with my children each part of it!!! …Finally I understand the stamp at my brother’s wall “Do what you love and you will never work – Charlie Chaplin”  #love #milleniuns #work

Love, change, regret

When is the right time to make a change? Which is the change you want to make? What is really your aim? Is there any change that you can make and no regrets will appear? Once I was told that whatever you do with love, for love can not be a mistake… So, then, when is the right time? Well, you are given gifts, opportunities and everything appears at the right moment in your life, as once told during a graduation in Stanford, by a wise person, you will not understand the importance of that moment, of that gift, at the present moment, not even if you look forward, but if you will take it, sometime later, by looking back, the dots will be connected and you will understand why everything happened as it did… it happened… …but not if you did not have the courage, passion to do so, then again the question – when is the right time? 🙂 Anytime is the right time… How to do it is the right question… What solved my problems, kept my doubts apart as well as fear, was a simple fact: You do not have to think too much – if something tells you to do something, just do it – do not think on the problems, do not think on what can end up wrong… You know what??? Because EVERYTHING IN LIFE CAN BE CHANGED – NOTHING IS FOREVER!! Meaning that you do not have to fear or think so much, since if something goes wrong, you can always do differently! Well, this was how my mother has helped me, indeed has convinced me to accept to leave Brazil for a proposal of an international career, not any international career, not an international career that has a guarantee from your home country that you can come back whenever you want, but an international career that would make me quit my Brazilian country and for sure I could not come back before 14 years – yes 14 years – this is what my boss told me, “Lara this contract is international, and for you to go higher in your Brazilian organization, you will have to leave and have an international career experience, and you will not be back before 14 years…”… 14 years, 1999 – not come back before 2013…. how can one leave your family and not think on coming back soon??? How can I sacrifice so much??? How can my company ask me this??? Which kind of person would do so??? How could I leave far away from my brother and sister… my mother, father… and not come back sooner??? …when I shared all my thoughts, more doubts and fears than thoughts, my mother chose the most simplistic way, as always… she asked me: “… ok, this is what your boss tells you, but who will prevent you from coming back if one day, after 5 years, you want to come back and you have just to be sure that you have done your best, so well, that you are in a position to ask something, you ask to be back, there can be a chance that they will allow you, if not, you buy a ticket, quit your job, come back home, and with the experience you got, who can stop you?? – remember, when you are not afraid, and you keep your values, nothing, nobody can stop you… you will decide your life…” 🙂 This is how I learned, this is from where I got my “guts”, my courage – indeed, I just know that whatever decision I take in my life I ALWAYS have the chance to change it, I will never be embarrassed of tell that I made a wrong decision and that I want to change my path !!!!!!! This has changed my life, and from this period one, I just know that everything will end up right, because if something is not right, it means that it is not the end, you change it, look for the right, take the new path, and then – tchan nan – the right way – it ended up right, not for nothing, but because you are the owner of your choices, so you are the owner of your glory, victory and success!!! 🙂 I do miss my mother, but from some 5 years now, my husband has done her job, and for this I love him hugely!!!
