Celebrando un año mas

It’s here, that’s how I’m celebrating one more year.   Without planning much, without producing it, I wanted to take these photographs to celebrate. But not only I celebrate that one more is fulfilled, I celebrate that in spite of what I have lived my heart has not changed.

From very early on and throughout the day I received many messages and I realized that many of them told me the same thing. They described certain qualities in me that I did not pay attention to for a long time. And is that often the noise caused by problems, your health, criticism of people, drastic changes in life, are making you pay less attention to the things that matter: YOU.

That’s why I started thinking about the things I already had at home and how I could use them all to take a picture because I was celebrating one more year  and thanking those qualities that God has given me.

Pasamos tantas horas del día, tantos días del año dedicándonos a lo que los demás esperan, que nos olvidamos de ser nosotros mismos. Y no es que este mal que atendamos y demos nuestro tiempo a otros, lo malo es no dedicar la misma cantidad de tiempo a nosotros mismos.

Asi que si a tu vida le hace falta algo, hoy es el día de soltar las ataduras y hacer lo que más te gusta y vivir en realidad cada día como siempre has soñado.

Yo mientras me dejaba tomar estas fotografías pensaba en una frase que leí el otro día que decía:  “El tiempo no se detiene ni espera por nadie, así que no detengas tu vida por pequeñeces. Sigue adelante porque en este momento eres lo más viejo que puedes ser, y lo más joven que nunca volverás a ser jamás”.

Try to memorize that phrase to be a reminder, every day, of what is really important. And also do as I do, stop counting how many years I’m fulfilling, but ALWAYS CELEBRATE! 

And as my mother always tells me: “May joy and happiness always accompany you”.
