"Love is a fruit, in season at all times and within the reach of every hand. Anyone may gather it and no limit is set."

Mother Teresa

When i think in love...

Hard work, Creative skills, Headache, warmth, a seed that grows along the time, a baby that must be treated with patient and affection...

"Love is no hot-house flower, but a wild plant, born of a wet night, born of an hour of sunshine; sprung from wild seed, blown along the road by a wild wind."
John Galsworthy

Everybody has lots of ways to talk with people. Always is going to depend on who is talking with you, the situation and the topic.
You do not talk the same way with your mom and with your friends; you do not talk the same at home and at church.
There's a difference, a difference that every person knows, it's a kind of reaction that you apply for each different situation.
Drunk people do not count. They can not exactly use their common sense, so they don't care about anything.

I have to confess that i do talk about personal stuff on cellphone even though i'm walking down a street, but it depends of the topic...

Stories... Life is a composition of them.
I enjoy telling stories about my everyday and also listening about them. They could be funny, sad or happy stories, and also there are others to be worried... No matter what type they are, the point is that always are going to make you feel or react in some way.
How often do the stories make speakers look good or bad? It varies all the time. It depends of the person, his/her values but the circumstances as well...

In my opinion, all the people that are part of your life are important just because of the space that they are occupying. Maybe less or more important, but everyone has some importance at the end.
I'm a detail person. I love giving presents no matter the size or the price. It can be a little thing, something handmade but its value is the love that you put in it. So, of course, all the really important people in my life have gotten gifts from me.
And, in the other hand, there are some other less important people in my life that have gotten something from me because of different circumstances, as birthday parties or that kind of stuff.

First of all, I just can not imagine the world without social media.
I know facebook, twitter and all that stuff can be used for bad things, and you are exposed all the time to be stalked by some people. But in my case, living far away from my country, my family and most of my friends, social media has been a great help.
Even though the distance is a problem, all those web resources help me to feel nearer from the people that i love. If I need them, or they need me, we just have to get a computer or a celphone with internet connection and we'll be fine. Of course it makes a difference, and in my case is a good one.
I know it can become dangerous for some people, but I guess it can depend of the list of "friends" that you have included in your accounts.

In my case that's something that shouldn't matter because is personal. But, of course, society lives thanks to polemic and double moral.
If people see someone going to a place as a sex store, they will point to him or her. And the funniest part is that maybe the person that is pointing does the same when nobody's watching, or more carefully at least, because is worried about what others are going to think.
But what is society winning with this (the critical)? I do not understand why if someone goes to a place like that is considered like a "dirty" person. I think in sex as something normal. It's personal and everyone decide when, how and with who do it.

Sheryl_5_DQ16

Why is this? That's a question hard to answer exactly. I don't know the "why", but i'm pretty sure of what is that; is called "double moral".
And that's the problem with society. It pretends to promote good manners, and personal behavior, but is just that, pretend to be something, only "a mask". Because if you see what you have around, the reality is too different...

Slumdogs Question

1 -  One of the reasons why he did not know the answer is because despite Jamal is very smart and went to school for a couple of years, he did not receive that much education in history of India. Besides, Jamal does not believe in the motto because he has seen the real truth of India, and the “truth” does not really triumph in the country. Nor Salim or Prem Kumar lived according to this motto.

Even though we like or not, these kinds of differences are the ones that show us that time is going on.

I can start with myself. Since i'm in college is hard to avoid that i look like a raccoon thanks to these dark circles under my eyes. And what about my body? Of course it doesn't look like 9 or 8 years ago when i was a child. 

People sick is easy to identify because even though they don't want to, their bodies can not work as they ussually can. There are some illnesses that are a little more difficult to identify exactly, as cancer. And maybe you won't be sure about if it's cancer or not, but you'll see that person look like tired, weak...

About my grandparents, of course they do not like as ten years ago. Now they don't look strong, their skin have changed, and now they can't see as good as they did before...

Physical appearance. What a problem!
I'm not going to generalized because i'm aware that there are some people who tries to judge others not only for what they show.
But of course, this phisycal's stuff is something that we have saved unconsciously in our minds. There are some rules that society has established. For example, what do we think about someone who arrives to a job's interview wearing sneakers, shorts and a t-shirt? His or her appearance is not going to be considered the best, according to our opinion. And that's not something that someone told us directly, is something that we know because is a rule established in the society's base.  

Sheryl_4_DQ14

Even though we try to think that no matter what people think about us, it's impossible not to hear their comments and feel something according to them.
In the deep of our hearts we know that people's reactions make us feel something, it can be good or bad.

Occasions when i've been embarrased? Ha! I'm the Embarrasing's Queen. I have lived lot of embarrasing experiences and even though i was trying to act normal, of course they made react like "What a shame!"
I remember once, when i was 8 years old, my family and i were in the birthday party of my mom's boyfriend.
As a great idea, i decided to take the cake to sing happy birthday. And what happened? I let the cake fell down. I'm never going to forget that day.

The nearest people are the most powerful influence to make us change our minds. Is unconscious, we do not plan it, but happens. We can start thinking some possibilities for an “x” situation, and after listen other opinions probably our mind is going to change.

Well, as we have to share a personal experience, here I go. I had a classmate called Alfonso in high school. Then, when I was in college, in my country, I did a new friend called Joselyn, and they met each other through me. They started to date, and I was so happy because I thought he was a nice guy for her. During my high school years I saw that he tried his girlfriend (the one that he had in that time) with so much love and so I thought he was going to be the same with Joselyn. At first they look so happy, but then she started to tell me that she was feeling that something was wrong with him. I didn’t really care at first because I thought she was being a little bit paranoid, but the time showed me that she was right.  At the end I discovered he was not what I thought for a long time, and I could not believe it until she made me see it.

It disappointed me so much, but now it does not matter. The point is that I had a different idea of him, but when Joselyn convinced me (with acts) about the truth, I discovered that I had been wrong.

I have never seen that TV Show.
The only thing that i can say is that people usually feel attracted toward opposites. Other people just can see themselves in some actors on TV shows, and that is why they like it.

The experiences of the infancy do not have to determine later relationships. But, sure, it depends of each person. We are talking about maturity, everybody can learn about bad experiences and try to do it better in the future.
Nobody is prisoner of nothing if he or she does not want, including the past. You can make changes whenever you want, but need to take the decision first and then start to work on it.  

Sheryl_3_DQ11

I think earliest memories are very connected with people's personality in most of times.
The way that you were educated and corrected when you were a child, it's going to be demostrated in your adult life. Is unwitting, you will show what you got.
Of course, there are exceptions. Some people are very mature, and they try to change some bad things that they learned from their childhood. But, it is because they have learned through the years that kind of stuff will not help them at all.

Sheryl_3_DQ10

It's sure that if you have similar goals and personality as your partner has, everything is going to be easier. Because with a similar point of view, take important and good decisions will not take them so much time.
Now, if your partner is so different, is not impossible but is going to be harder. That's why i think it's better be with someone with a similar point of view. But, sure, our heart not always is going to listen to us.

Sheryl_2_DQ9

This question is perfect for me because i'm not from USA and all my family and friends are so far away.
Is funny because, you can ask my friends here and they will tell that in fact I have my desk full of photographs portraits.
Talk all the time is part of my life and even though i'm far from the people that i love, i try to call them as much as i can.
Also i can use Skype or facebook to send messages or have a video chat with them and feel them nearer. Or for special dates i'm going to send letters and some gifts.
Another thing that i do is to bring some gifts that important people gave me before i leave. Then i can remember special moments every time i see that stuff.
