Listen to Your Heart

Am I doing right?  Is there anything else I can try?  When the things doesn't move the way you expected, it might be a good idea to slow down and check whats going on around you.  This would be a time for you not to push yourself too hard but to relax and restore your energy.  You may need to listen your inside voice because what you think and what you feel are not always compatible.  What you think "It's right" may not be the right direction you should pursue. 
 
Imagine you are on a sailing boat and about set a long journey.  First, you need to identify your destination.  It is worth to take some time to see the map and contemporate your itenerary too.  It is match faster to reach your goal by starting late after knowing exactly where to go than by just starting soon.
 
I am about to start new chapter of my life.  I will carefully monitor my feeling and choose the direction.  I don't care how slow I move because this is the way I move the fastest as I could.

Can animals feel the same?

We often refer animals to express our feelings, sich as " I wish I could fly like a bird." or "She can swim like a fish." These expressios are called metaphore or simile.  They are tecniques of writing and they enriches our imagination.
 
Yesterday I saw a lovely activity of animals in a zoo in Japan.  Have you heard of Capybaras?  They are the biggest mouse spece with adorable round furry look, naturally inhabit near water in the Central and South America.  The animals became famous in Japan because of their daily rutine introduced by a zookeeper several years ago.
 
The region that Capybaras originally live is relatively warmer than Japan, and the animals had difficulty adjusting the cold winter weather in Japan.  One day, the zookeeper comes up an idea of presenting for those Capybaras with hot springs.  Thanks to the volcanic topography and rich water, hot springs are available almost any part of Japan and Japanese people enjoys bathing individually as well as publicly.  In deed it provides us good health as well as socialisation.
 
Actually, Capibarras likes the hot springs.  Then, with their sociable nature and lovely looks, the bating of Capybara soon became popular in Japan.  Since I saw these Capybara families in the hat water with their eyes almost closed with happiness, I had always wanted to see them.
 
 
I lost my mind and contemplated for a while when I saw them in a hand reach in the hot springs.  I was enjoying the good feelings transffered from the capybaras.

Happy New Year!

My year 2014 was started with big fireworks at the celebration at  Montjuic.  This was the first time for me to turn the year in Spain.  Here, people traditionally eat a grape with each of twelve bell strikes at midnight of December 31.

For me, its is very interesting to know and experience different traditions and culture around the world.  I feel like that I am learning more about the society.  The world is diverse and so interesting.

I wish you prosperous year 2014 from Barcelona!
