Comentario: La Transformación Personal por Mario Alonso Puig

    Este articulo tiene un tema muy relevante en mi vida; la incompetencia. Sin embargo, el autor lo divide en dos; la incompetencia inconsciente y la incompetencia consciente. De hecho, relaciono muy bien con la incompetencia consciente porque a veces siento que la incompetencia es una debilidad o una manera de decepcionar a alguien y por miedo lo trato de ocultar, pero debe ser lo contrario; debe ser una oportunidad de mejora y/o una oportunidad para tener confianza y empatía con alguien. ¿Por qué la empatía? Por ejemplo, se puede generar un vinculo con alguien con un simple; "pucha, yo también siento incapaz, yo también siento temor, yo también tengo excusas, pero podemos crecer juntos y aprender juntos". Por ende podemos ser auténticos. 
    Incluso, me gustó la idea de la necesidad de experimentar una transformación personal antes de querer cambiar el mundo. Igualmente, relaciono con la idea del compromiso y el proceso, lo intangible, es más importante que el resultado. Por ejemplo, muchas veces me siento pequeño o no reconocido por mis colegas,  mis amigos, familiares, pero después del artículo se que este pensamiento viene de la zona de oscuridad y tengo que dejar la luz iluminar mi vida. 
    Personalmente, soy un hombre de fe, entonces cuando leo, leo con ojos y perspectiva hacia Cristo y mi fe. Por ejemplo, cuando dice confiar en la vida, personalmente, reemplazaría las palabras confiar y vida por "tener fe en Cristo". Sin embargo, este artículo es de mucha ayuda. Concluyó con que tener empatía es una habilidad esencial para lograr una transformación personal. Todos luchamos con cosas similares, todos nos sentimos perdidos, pequeños, etc., pero cuando la gente es vulnerable y transparente, juntos crecemos y aprendemos. Como dijo mi colega, "siempre debemos buscar la luz". Esa luz eres tu!

I understand now ...

     This is for all the single mothers raising children. I am thankful that I was raised by a single mother; of course I needed a father, but that was the hand I was dealt. This emptiness was needless, but I have to recognize that my older brother and my mom tried to fill that void and they tried their best. In fact, most of the world, including the church, would say that I came from a dysfunctional family, but it was God's plan all along; it was what actually brought me to my knees and accepted Christ. I am thankful for Him, them and all the people that invested in me; especially my mom. This blog post is for all the mothers, mainly those single mothers raising men.      After the not so pleasant memories in my early years, my “first” memories were of my mom working two jobs, one at Publix and another at a restaurant (don’t remember the name). However, I do remember that she would leave early and not come back until late at night dressed in her cashier un...

Trujillo: Top 4 menús in the city of eternal spring

Emilio Salaverry A day spent surfing in nearby Huanchaco and roaming the grounds of Chan Chan can work up quite a hunger. Get some dining tips from a local Trujillano! Menús are a part of everyday life in Peru. It doesn't matter if you're a tourist back packing around Peru on a budget or an expat working in Miraflores – you've seen those blackboards with florescent colors advertising a daily lunch menú or, for the fancier menús, a whiteboard with red or black ink. If you are a menú lover then you've drank out of those huge buckets full of  refrescos , sat at tables where your legs can't fit and you have to sit in an awkward angle, used those really thin napkins that tear at the first swipe or probably have tried the spiciest ají ever. In Trujillo, just like every other city in Peru, you will find a variation of menus. Lunch in the eternal city of spring could cost you anywhere from 6 to 15 soles depending on the restaurant. After living in Trujil...

Police Brutality: For Jack and Inti

Source: José Miguel Alban       For the past 7 days there has been social unrest over the most recent political crisis in Peru. Since the start of the protests the national police has used violence to calm the tension which have obviously exacerbated the situation. For example, the national police has used gas bombs, police batons, rubber bullets and pellets againt the protesters. There has even been an undercover police unit, known as the ternas, infiltrating the marches and instigating violence and repression against the protesters. However, things started getting suspicious when doctors started reporting extractions of marbles from protesters which meant the national police started using lethal force. And there are videos where you heard police officers scream “shoot , aim for their heads”.Of course, now the former de facto president and Minister of Defense denied using violence to suppress the people. Additionally, the now former Prime Minister visited the police...
