It's 2007!

Have you made promises to 2007 yet?
Every year I make them, but forget in the first month. So I've had an idea to make a good use of my blog and write down my promises, in order to be able to check them later.

1) I will work less - no 'endless' long hours anymore. Yes, that's a tough one. I always make this promise but never realize it. This year I'll make it!

2) I will have enough sleep - which means discipline to turn off the computer... no internet stuff after 11pm. Ok, weekends are permited. yes! (this one is necessary because of the third promise)

3) I will practice sports - after one entire year doing nothing it is time to get back to the gym, dance class, jiu-jitsu, whatever makes me less sedentary.

4) I will make a good use of my time - taking care of my relationships, meeting new people, reading & writing, having fun, learning something new, loving more, helping more and keeping my heart in Jesus Christ.

Enthusiasm, passion and courage to you in this New Year!
Now I invite you to do the same... What are your promises to 2007?

Já fez suas promessas para 2007?
Todos os anos eu faço, mas esqueço deles logo no primeiro mês. Então tive a idéia de fazer bom uso do meu blog e escrever aqui minhas promessas, podendo checá-las ao longo do ano.

1) vou trabalhar menos - não às intermináveis horas extras. Sei, essa é difícil. Todo ano prometo isso e nunca cumpro. Mas esse ano eu consigo!

2) vou dormir o suficiente - o que significa ter disciplina para desligar o computador... nada de internet depois das 11 da noite. Ok, finais de semana estão permitidos. Oba! (essa é necessária por causa da 3ª promessa)

3) vou praticar esportes - depois de um ano inteiro sem fazer nada, é hora de voltar para a academia, aula de dança, jiu-jitsu, qualquer coisa que me torne menos sedentária.

4) vou fazer bom uso do meu tempo - cuidando dos meus relacionamentos, conhecendo pessoas novas, lendo & escrevendo, me divertindo, aprendendo algo novo, amando mais, ajudando mais e mantendo meu coração em Jesus Cristo.

Entusiasmo, paixão e coragem para você neste Ano Novo!

Agora convido você a fazer o mesmo... Quais são suas promessas para 2007?

"Disciplina para desligar o computador" haueha essa é boa. Isso é algo que eu tenho que aprender. Antigamente era o msn, fotolog e orkut que me prendia tanto, agora o flickr me deixou mais viciada do que nunca. :O
Muito legal seu blog Tathi, um Feliz 2007 pra você!

What's the difference of being different?

Yesterday I felt like Shrek... not belonging to the world. I felt like a stranger and that made me feel really sad. But you know what? Today I see a positive side of it. I mean... what is the point of being like everyone? Being different doesn't mean, in the first place, being wrong. Being different means being yourself. How many brilliant and talented people have contributed to the world? Weren't they different? That's why they could make the difference. From this point of view, I kinda like the idea of being different. In fact, I love that! Check out what people think about being different... "In order to be irreplaceable one must always be different." (Coco Chanel) "Be daring, be different, be impractical, be anything that will assert integrity of purpose and imaginative vision against the play-it-safers, the creatures of the commonplace, the slaves of the ordinary." (Cecil Beaton) "Share our similarities, celebrate our differences." (M. Sco...

Changing your perspective

A few weeks ago there was this huge blackout in Brazil, caused by a technical problem in Itaipu dam, the second-largest hydroelectric power producer in the world ( Yahoo news here ). It was very weird and a bit scary to realize how dependent we are on eletricity. For hours there was no TV, no radio, no computer. Some cellphones weren't working and despite my notebook being ok, it seemed useless without internet. I was at home when it happened and I prayed for those people who were out of their homes at that time. I imagine how many of them were in the subway, in the elevator, at the office, alone on the street. I remembered people in hospital and all kinds of situation in which people are highly dependant on electricity. I took that time to think and I realized we should be always ready to live with little, even though the media keeps saying we need more and more, in this endless consumption world. I remember the day after the blackout some people would complain about missing a...

Priorities...

I am impressed by the fact that most people doesn't know what is really important in their lives. In fact, everybody knows what is best and could make their own top 10 list, but theory sometimes is far away from the reality. I myself have had a hard time trying to balance my priorities. And it seems that I never get it. I had a teacher in my master who used to compare economy to a short blanket. He used to say "If the country reduces the interests in order to acelerate the economy, it will suffer from inflation. On the other hand, if it increases the interests in order to control the inflation, it will suffer from stagnation". From that I want to make a parallel to our lives. To cover all we need or want we sometimes change our priorities. In this way, we are constantly trying to balance our lives, though not always with success. Since the last few weeks I've had some struggles. I've had no answer for them or maybe I just couldn't see their real importance. Th...
