What we have...

I sit in my room and I am grateful of what I have. I have this computer to convey my thoughts to the world, a tv to get glimpse of it and books that let me travel from a safe distance. No matter how much we can conclude ourselves, we are still part of the world. We are one single, living ecosystem that encompasses all of humanity. Our economy, that we built, is global. Our culture is becoming global, which is devastating to think of.
When I was in Mexico, I experienced a culture that was adapting to our fashions and our ways of life. Imagine that be produced all over the world. We lose the diversity that we created for something monotone. It is important to experience this, it is important to understand what is different in order to understand humanity. Experiences is what drives us to be different and we should embrace that.
I mention in the previous post that I worry about a job and finding a source of revenue. But what does money bring us? Happiness? It has been proven that it does not. Maybe I should let this go and find something is truly important, which is diversity, which is me.

cerveza con limón

Life is interesting. We always have worries. I worry that I won't get a job and not escalate my debt, but my mom's as well since her name is attached to my loans. I will probably move away to get a job, but I am not ready to. So maybe another year of school is best for me or not.
But my point of this post is simple. When worry becomes too much then we should do one thing; drink a beer with a lime. Not literally, but the act of doing it can be relaxing. So we have to find what is relaxing and remember that life is not fun when all we do is worry.
