beautiful that way

Smile, without a reason why
Love, as if you were a child
Smile, no matter what they tell you
Don’t listen to a word they say
‘Cause life is beautiful that way

Tears, a tidal-wave of tears
Light that slowly disappears
Wait, before you close the curtain
There’s still another game to play
And life is beautiful that way

Here, in his eyes forever more
I will always be as close as you remember from before.

Now, that you’re out there on your own
Remember, what is real and what we dream is love alone.

Keep the laughter in your eyes
Soon, your long awaited prize
Well forget about our sorrow
And think about a brighter day
‘Cause life is beautiful that way

Noa

“la vida es bella”

a dream

puedes soñar pero tal vez no todo lo puedas realizar..bueno esta semana de vacaciones en el trabajo y en la u...pense en un pequeño sueño escondido que siempre quise hacerlo realidad..vaya fantasia la mia! pero a partir de lo que averigue esta semana vamos a ver si se hace realidad completamente =)..a ballerina loving the idea already =)

take the river...or choose the charco

The river of life, teach us with the pass of time and years in our life, we get what we want, or not, but in the road we create or serve to the "gods" money, fame, success, all that makes us feel complete, but we won´t be complete till we finally left that charco and the things that cause us pleasure in life, we let ourselves become free from pleasure and gods, we let ourselves been FREE, and have a simple life which doesn´t involve money or material pleasures....it can´t be simple but i can be done, fame and succesfull hide behind happiness, our happiness is our sucess, unfortunely society has told us that fame, sucess and money make us feel happy, but that´s not true, that just pleasing our pleasures, our egotism...let yourself be free from those gods, remember the important things in life, that we might not invest time on it...family union, love to others, sharing knowledge, let us be more like, put ourselves in the line of the river and less on the charco

yarn....selfknowledge

Go to your house, only with a piece of yarn, get inside of your house....you can do it faster..those were my words to the kids. Let´s play and learn with your teachers, this activity involve not of teachers Madre Pilar Izquierdo this was a moment of integration and knowing a little bit more of the kids and teachers taught, let them known themselves a little bit more. let them share a little bit more, beyond responsabilities. cause social service involve knowing yourself, and helping others to be better on what they do everyday, this also help me to understand my work with kids, in garabatos, it also make me think about the quality of my work and the energy i put on it. think also that sometimes is hard to see our mistakes if we don´t have someone else to tell us. So this social service help me to grow intelectually and personally, help me to understand more of what i want to be, how i want to do it, how much can i change, how much can others teach me...at the end i thought i was helping somebody else, but i was helping myself. So Thanks!

Play outside

Have fun in the park, this days teacher prefer silence, or better jet robots in their classes, not children, asking can´t be an option know, but this makes us less curious or just lose the chance to say something without the pressure of someone asking us to be quite. in a few hours the children and I when out to the park and play, so much, we went to the slide, play at the "escondidas" and the "lobo" and also "a las cogidas" it was so much fun, they laugh, they play, because they always need someone to play with them, not adult that take care them when they are playing, parents should be involve and share the time with their childs. have fun for a while. cause when we grow we forget how much fun was been on a slide, how much fun was runing form one side to the other, play with a puppet, everything that involve movement, was fun, but unfortunely with the pass of the years, we forget about that, and we become so adults that we can be in the shoes of the kids, that want to be a few more minutes in the park, and playing with a ball, ecc. we become adults, and that maybe put us a stop on our legs, and a stop on our brain, saying that movement (like running) it not that fun anymore, we start to think that personal grow it´s fun, acquiring knowledge is so neccesary that doesn´t give us time to think in something else than personal bussiness development and grow. we struggle with the kid we have inside of us for years, so i think maybe that´s why parents don´t like so much the park, or the slide, or anything that involve movement (well some parents, a few, likes playing with their childs) and prefer that teachers play with them, and left them on the kindergarten for having a great time, and run, and play, so when they come home, they only want to eat and sleeep. so i think teachers should teach to the parents this, talk to them, they will eventually pay attention, because if the teachers doesn´t become a leadership on this problem, we can´t not change this, now or never.....................

Let´s color...Let me grow

Let´s color a bird, let´s color our world, let´s be creative, let´s have fun, coloring should be that, should involve creations, knowledge, selfknowing, not only a homework, a classwork, something boring, unfortunately teachers sometimes do that, because they have to complete a program, they also have evaluations, and that comes from the students development and knowledge, perhaps that´s why in kindergarten coloring become an absolutely boring, homework. i start this activity with the kids of prekinder in Mdre Pilar Izquierdo, but i realize, the are coloring everyday, so i choose doing something different, we make a rainbow, first we did it with legos and them we pass to the color, know let me tell you something, every color have a story, friends, and family, for example, color pink is so gorgeuos and have family the mom is color red and the dad is color white, you mix them together and you make a beautiful PINK. this actually work, and it was fun, most of all for the kids, because they were laughing and speaking of it. so with all this you realize, or at least i did, that social service involve growing (which i didn´t know) intectual and spiritual, not only because you´re helping but also because you´re becoming part of something bigger than yourself.
And the people you work with, or teach (as in my case) thanks you with the product they make, or at least with a smile on their face when they see you coming!.....

look this beauty

little girls painting...so cutee!

out of the CHARCO

Once upon a time....that´s the beginning of a cute story that involve been creative, not my creation but theirs, why i did this?, ´cause it fun when you create the story when you change, modify, put your own word and ideas on it, this story not only gave me the chance to know them a little bit more but also gave me the chance to realize we can make a change, not doing the same all over and over, we have to be creative, let the kids talk , pay attention and i believe that not only they are going to talk but also they are going to teach you with the stories they create, this let us out of that CHARCO and let us also "be in the river" of a road call life!..been creative make you think different from other people, i know this not only teach them for their developement, but i have learn so much for them that i can thank enough. well, to the readers of this blog, i hope i can share even more of my experiences with the kids but i hope my reflections make a difference.....
