Attitude... it matters

Last week I went to Miami looking for a Wide Angle Lens for MyNakedPastor.com camera to provide a better view of what’s going on at Troy’s for 5 weeks. Here are to shots. One, a Wide Angle shot and two, another without. You see it is a better view. On my search of the lens, I visited several stores and also some parking lots. On the first parking lot there was an upset cashier, I pay and give them some encouraging words, not reacting on the way I was treated, may be she was struggling with some situation… I pray for her. On the second parking lot the cashier was with an I-phone, just grabbed my ticket and my money… no interaction at all. Never looked at me… and the third one, there was a nice cashier, she smiled me, greet me, and she wished me a great day…

Three different persons, the same work, where is the difference? One word: Attitude. We all struggle with different situations every day, at work, at school, at home. No matter what is the circumstances around us, we can better use our potential if we take the right attitude.
I think will be interesting to observe Troy for five weeks, I’m sure there is a lot to learn, and apply to our own life to develop our potential.

One of their sons, Eduardo Carrasco García Luna, married María Contreras Nuñez, who was daughter of Vicentita Nuñez and Teodoro Contreras. They had five kids: Natalia, Eduardo, Alicia Solveigh, Manuel and Lolita. My Grandpa Eduardo used to work for the city of Tlalnepantla and he was recognized because his honest service. He was also a talented self taught musician, he played piano, violin and other musical instruments. He was always a family man, and he died in the early 60’s. I barely remember when he past away. It is one of my first memories, and it was a painful process for the family. My grandma moved from Tlalnepantla to Mexico city to live close to his two sisters Margarita (Mago) and Linda. Grandma was a faithful woman. I remember her as a devoted Christian Catholic. She walked every day f

Truth or dare?

One of the things that is surprising to me today, is the low value that many people assign to their own promises. Teenagers don't believe their parents, because they never fulfill their promises; Couples say "I'll stand by you forever" and few months later they walk on the opposite direction; politicians make promises to earn votes, and once the election is done, they forgot about it. I remember one of the first things I learned from my grandmother it was the value of my word. "A gentleman always fulfill his promises, a man with no word has no honor" and I learned to live by that principle. Few weeks ago, I was having a discussion with one of the leaders on the youth ministry at Flamingo Road Church about some technical difficulties we were experiencing during the broadcasting of our Student Service online, and I challenged him to fix the failures, so if he would complete the task with no errors, I will do my hair like him... (He had a Mohawk haircut with
