Just a need to write

And we think our life is hard.... He found the peace to pray and in the meantime the others don't have a roof.
West bank - Luxor - Egypt
July 2007




It has been a long time since my last post and I really don't know why.

Maybe getting to lazy for it.

Wow what a great summer enjoying the family and new and different places.

We discovered the ancient Egypt with all of its beauties, we walked every possible inch, we felt how the people are and survive, either with the poverty and in between all of the difference between rich and poor. I heard the muslims calling for prayers early in the morning and during the day and at night. I couldn't discover what they say.
The food was fantastic the shisha as well. All those thumbs, pyramids, temples, museums...Everything is around it.
I saw the legendary Nile wow how incredible it is everything green, fertile, for about 2 or 3 km from it then the contrast with the desert....So dry and so beautiful, quiet....

We also walked from Oporto (Portugal) to Santiago de Compostela (Spain) no words...... Second time I do this pilgramage and this time with them the masters...(my parents).
So amazing to expend days and share everything with them, the possibility to return what they've done for me all of this years. There were days that we really connected with nature and with each other, we became part of it.
We met good friends had good food and another amazing experience. Fantastic 15 days.

Them to finish one more week in Barcelona aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah. so good to return there. Sun, friends parties, the BEACH, food everything perfect, maybe one day I will move there. It is fantastic to be walking and people smile to you and when you ask explain things properly pull you or stop what are doing to help, simply to help.


Now back to work and returning to normal life....It is so good to dream....

Maybe one day I will have the courage to break the cord and fly free...

I wish....

Plenitude

An abundance / the condition of being full or complete.

Today on my 26th birthday is how I am feeling, it is full moon and I spent some time with my loved ones and now enjoying myself.

Last Saturday my sister asked me "what do you want for your birthday?" I started thinking, what do I need?

I answered " Thanks but I have everything."

We do not need much we just need to be balanced with ourselves and in harmony with nature and others.

Things happens and are given to us on the time we are ready to receive them.

It is so good to wake up in the morning listen to the birds the sun coming thru the window....Smiling looking to our sllepy face in the mirror be happy for what you are and what you do.

I grew loads last year, learnt a lot, I travelled as well and I loved too.

As I said on my last post when someone mentioned to me that I was like the wind.....

It is hard to say but looking into myself I feel things passing by without worrying much and when I notice them, they are gone... Memories, feelings, general stuff they just go...................................

Hard to explain, difficult to feel should I put the blind down and just live pretending everything is ok or should I stand up for myself and what I believe???

I am another yourself

Ahhhhhh London!!!

Someone said that I am like the wind...

Wind whispers

Wind blows
Wind travels
Wind live


Wind wind wind wind wind...
wind wind wind wind...
wind wind wind ...
wind wind...
wind...

Long time....New thoughts...new things....

Yeah, it is funny to say but what busy days I am in to much work and study...After a week of holiday first time snowboarding and seeing so many snow...
Yes, life, life, life....

If all the people from all nations start respecting each other, the planet, pkants everything, probably we will be living in a better world.

What paper we have here???? So many people living without an aim just being here, doing nothing, just breathing or destructing....

What is your part???? Where are you on the pyramid????? Constructing??? Destroying?????

What????

End of term / New year to come

Wednesday will be my last day at work finally holidays!!!Coming back only on the 4th January isn't it good???
So many things happened this year, what a fantastic year.

Since the beggining from one of the best parties ever passing from nice trips and nice people that I met.
I visited Paris ( I met Vincent and Nathalie), Luxembourg, Brussels, Amsterdam (I visited Marie Jose after a year of the Camino), Tow in (Wales) 2 weeks Permaculture Design Course, Cardiff then my parents came and we travelled for a whole month and something extra, an amazing trip that will stay with us to the rest of ou lives again we met amazing people that probably we are going to meet again...

After some uncertainities I got my job again and wow I had a hard term but it was one of the best I think. I am following the right path on my life and slowly I am realizing how amazing is working on education especially with students with learning difficulties and disabilities.
I just finished my first part of my teacher trainning and trying to apply for a PGCE in Education maybe what will be a barrier to me is that i do not live in England for more then three years, so the law still say that I am an international student, I will try and do my best to get it let's see. Just for reference EU or home fee is a £1.000 and International Students is £8.000 it is a shame ah???

If not I will keep doing my teacher trainning and maybe in 2008 I can do my PGCE then....

I am really happy that the work is really showing results and in January I will start teaching once a week and it will be a really good experience.

A couple of weeks ago I sent a message for one of my old tutors from Uni telling him how the things were running in here and how life is.
I said that my life was going thru the path of education and that was already a year and a half doing this work and loving that either that my degree was in Communication.
I a really enjoyed his answer:

"Hi Gabriel
I got really happy with your actions.
I think that this is the real path, your style probably would lead you thru education...but not like an end...and really like a "border" or a frontier.
Lots of my professional life was to stay between the interfaces of the knowledge areas...what on one side give us the opportunity to know more another fileds of knowledge as people with different profiles...and for the eyes of the observers appears that you do not know what do you want...today, with the experience I have, i can tell you...It is very good to have the sensation of not to know something....Beacause it gives you the strenght to keep searching..."

So life is like it....

Just to mention another thing this year I met my love and between a lot of funny facts and coincidences we are having a good time....

Confusion

London is getting really cold and dark so early that when it is almost 6 in the afternoon I feel I want to go to bed.....
But with the change of the season came a couple of good things as well, it is amazing to see the sun risng in the morning and get that warmth and fill the whole body and soul with that, or the spectacle of leaves of different colours and shapes all flying around and dropping on the floor, walk in the park in this magic carpet....
Life is going well still missing some people and waiting some answers but I think I will solve some of this next week..

Good things are coming, new years eve in Barcelona, going to meet some friends and have some nice party. Maybe a PGCE (Post Grad for January) Maybe becoming a teacher who knows, how many surprises and how many things we feel and happens day by day that we get lost on our own toughts and sometimes we make traps inside our brain and gets so hard to let it go...

Thats it for today I do not want write anything else today.
