I am your mother. You are my child. I am your quiet place. You are my wild. I am your calm face. You are my giggle. I am your wait. You are my wiggle. I am your dinner. You are my chocolate cake. I am your bedtime. You are my wide awake. I am your lullaby. You are my peek-a-boo. I am your good night kiss. You are my I love you. Happy birthday mami! Thank you for being all that you are to me. I love you 💕🎉

"La esperanza tiene dos hijas: la ira y el valor. La ira para indignarse por la realidad y el valor para enfrentar esa realidad e intentar cambiarla" San Agustín #agentedetransformación "Hope has two beautiful daughters. Their names are Anger and Courage; anger at the way things are, and courage to see that they do not remain the way they are." St. Augustine #agentoftransformation (at Antigua Guatemala)

Lo hice, sobreviví mi triatlón! Una experiencia inolvidable. El dolor que siento ahora vale la pena al saber que pude contribuir $1080 a la educación y bienestar de mis chapines. Gracias a todos por su apoyo! Ya saben, si ahora alguien me quiere regalar un masaje le estaría eternamente agradecida 😂 I did it! I made it through my triathlon! It's an experience I will never forget. The pain I am in now is worth it given I know I was able to contribute $1080 by putting my body on the line for the education and well being of my fellow Guatemalans. Thank you all for your support! Now if anyone wants to gift me a massage I would be eternally grateful to you 😂 #itswhatwedoforthekids #nofilter #volcano #nature #triathlon #adventure #perhapsyouneedalittleguatemala (at Education for the Children Foundation)

"You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose. You're on your own. And you know what you know. And YOU are the one who'll decide where to go...You're off to Great Places! Today is your day! Your mountain is waiting, So... get on your way!" - Dr. Seuss, Oh, The Places You'll Go! 🎓🎈🎉 Ese momento en el que te das cuenta que la niña con la que creciste ya no es una niña. Ahora ella es toda una graduada y una mujer de la cual estoy muy orgullosa. La quiero mucho mi Michi y le deseo lo mejor. No estas sola. Tenes a una multitud que te apoya y cree en vos. Sabemos lo lejos que llegaras. Animo en todo y me muero por escuchar todas las aventuras que están por venir para vos 😉💕 felicidades! 🎓🎉🎉

My day was made by the beautiful @branka_baby :) made it to work and there was this beautiful card on my desk. Definitely a nice birthday surprise 🎉 I love you and can't wait to host you at home one day. In the meantime, let's keep collecting cards from afar. #wepushourselvestobebetter #friends #postcards #taketime

Love isn't about what we did yesterday; it's about what we do today and tomorrow and the day after. People are aware that they cannot continue in the same old way but are immobilized because they cannot imagine an alternative. We need a vision that recognizes that we are at one of the great turning points in human history when the survival of our planet and the restoration of our humanity require a great sea change in our ecological, economic, political, and spiritual values. We never know how our small activities will affect others through the invisible fabric of our connectedness. In this exquisitely connected world, it's never a question of 'critical mass.' It's always about critical connections. ~ Grace Lee Boggs #fabricofourconnectedness

"Women's ministry in Latin America is opposed by a church that has been many times 'pro-Herod', supporting dictatorial regimes that have offered to keep the traditions of the fatherland... Under these women's ministry, the church in exile which is the church of the poor in Latin America, has survived and flourished. Walking with women serpents can teach us that the full femininity of God is a mystery manifested in the presence of women ministers among the poor." #WomenSerpents #liberationtheology #latinamerica #inspiring #grounding recovering what had been lost and giving birth to a new church for a new society.
