"We are because we feel, because we form invisible ties and timeless links to one another. Life is about the energy we share - a gaze, an embrace, a fleeting exchange of irreplicable moments. Life is about the connection." - Gabriela Condrea, When 1+1=1
"Somos porque sentimos, porque formamos lazos invisibles y vínculos atemporales entre nosotros. La vida trata de compartir energía - una mirada, un abrazo fugaz, un intercambio fluyente de momentos irreproducibles."

Apple Skin Spirals
Cutting an apple like my Grandma Raia used to when we were little, just to take a few minutes to pause and reflect... and see if I can cut the skin in spirals without them breaking. I used to eat the spirals as they came off of Grandma's knife. Still remember her laughter, her wit.

Osvaldo y Coca - yo, ella, y la música
"Uno tiene que bailar por uno, no para que lo miren... bailamos en frente de 7.000 personas y cuando la abrazé, no había nadie - solo yo, ella, y la música."
- Osvaldo de Osvaldo y Coca
Osvaldo y Coca bailan en Slovenia

Choices - El que abarca todo...
"El que abarca todo no se agarra nada - He who tries to grab everything holds nothing."
This has shaped my studies, my decisions in designing this path... a good reminder. #choices
We always do what we want, in some way, shape, or form. Or rather, what we do is what we want to do. There is always some element of choice in our actions, some place deep inside where we choose door number 1 over door number 2, where we choose at the fork in the road to take the middle path rather than the one on the left or the one on the right.

Like cutting a piece of yourself
Editing can be a painful process, of
pruning and weeding the garden of your soul. Each word, each phrase, each
paragraph sowed by you and grown from the fertile soil of your
experiences. And after all the struggles, you have to cut it
off, shut it out, as if what was once your child – an extension of your
very being – has been reduced to a mere inconsequential... nothing.

Café con leche... 17 pesos
Por este café con leche que hace dos años me salía 8 pesos,
ahora se cobra 17 pesos. Los números no
importan tanto hasta que te das cuenta que lo que la mayoría de la gente gana
no es el doble o más que el doble de lo que ganaba hace dos años. No sé como hace la gente para sobravivir. Es impresionante la inflación.* Por eso se dice por acá que todo se ata con
alambre – es hacer de mago, inventar una manera de sacar jugo del limón exprimido. Parece imposible ganar en pesos y pagar
precios calculados en dólares. La comida,
los colectivos, el subte, todo subió.
Todo. Es impresionante cómo hace
la gente para sobravivir. Impresionante.(In English...)

Fire with Fire
You can’t fight force with force, Fire with fire
You can’t fight force with force. Martin Luther King, Jr. said it, the bible
said it, Mahatma Gandhi said it.
You can’t fight force with force,
fire with fire,violence with violence;
Arming our schools
is not the answer.
You can’t fight force with force,
fire with fire,violence with violence;
We only escalate the problem
and raise the stakes.
