A way to start 2008

The way you start your new year reflects what to expect for your whole year, so with my beloved one, we took a look on my teens bedroom and all can I said, it needed urgent intervention, in fact I had a picture I took one day they were on a run and left the room completely messed up and we decided to do something to encourage them to experience one of our ethos about environment. So we went to Ikea to get a Swedish meatballs breakfast to have some inspiration and while we walked on the store, we decided to do an X-treme make over for my daughters. They were at a friend's house, recovering from the new year celebration so the timing was perfect to do it. I remembered Tania once told us she wanted some kind of black and red colors and we start looking, thinking, choosing, and to make a long story short, we expended all day choosing even the small details. We also found that my car is able to carry on more than I though... after we finished I went to pick up Paulina and Tania. Everything was ready... when they walked in to their room they were really surprised... that, is a way to start 2008.

How important is to be surrounded by a nice environment, it will allow you to awake your creativity, to think, be inspired or even just to relax and enjoy.

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 ...

The Tree of faith!

Last January we were on the process of buying our house, by that time we really did't knew for sure if we could get the property for what we offered... at that time, it was uncertain the purchase of the property, but we saw a tall Christmas tree and I always wanted to have a tall tree at home and I told Dora: "We are going to buy that tree, on faith" I knew that we didn't know for sure if we were going to get our dream house, but on faith we decided to buy the tree (It was also 75% off), so we bought it and stored until we purchased our house... then it was the first box to be placed on the attic, besides other Christmas purchases and we decided to bring it on before thanks giving, so here is a picture of the just unpacked and lighted tree of the faith... Decorations will come soon!
