1.       Give selflessly.

 -          A person who can give without expecting anything in return shows true compassion in the sympathy for others without any ulterior motives.

2.       Enjoy life.

-      If you can enjoy your life to fullest and truly appreciate the essence of life then you can also appreciate the effort needed to show compassion to others and maintain that balance in the world.

3.    Be a great communicator.

       -       Communication is the key to showing concern and soothing those in need. Through great communication, one can ask the right questions, listen to those that need to speak (or have no voice in their community), and relay those questions and concerns to others who may be able to provide the help for those who need it.

Childhood memories

Everyone has that one place they remember when they grew up. This was mine. It's called la sopresa supermarket. I remember walking with my younger brother to buy warm oven baked cuban bread, candy, and some trading cards. Too bad for my parents half the loaf was gone by the time we got back. I urge everyone to go ahead and visit that one place that brings back good memories of their childhood.

Flash-backwards

When I was younger than 5 everything is a blur. Every now and then I get a glimpse of a bull, a dead chick (bird-kind), and an open stable door with the sounds wolves singing into the night. But that is all, nothing more. This is followed by the ages of between 6 to 10 years old. This area embodies mostly my imagination; sweet, pure, and mischievous. I remember being always quiet when I was around people or by myself. I would always pay good attention to almost every detail in the house scrutinizing each object with the upmost detail and professionalism of a detective. I remember loving to play with my toys alone or with my brother; either way I always had a blast. Playing with my brother was an adventure, there was no spot in the house that wasn’t diligently inspected,messed around with, or broken. Every question that had an answer I found amazing and every question that wasn’t answered I enjoyed its mystery. To think of these times always makes me stop and remember to let your imagination go and be free. Without it we are just as restrained as a bird in a cage. Just like the bird, we all have this great wonder inside all of us and the longer we stay trapped the longer we won’t be able to enjoy that wonder. This is the simplicity, the laughter, the warmth, the curiosity, and the amazement of the human spirit at its core.

A World Apart

I guess there really is such a thing as a early Midlife Crisis.....except I'm determined to make it one that will be unselfish. Time to get off that horse and walk for a change. I may be right or just completely wrong, but morally I don't think that devoting the rest of my life to bringing joy and relinquishing pain to at least one person a day is ever going to be a bad decision. Male Nurses rock.

Magic Little Pill

So it comes down to this....My family, my girlfriend, my friends, and my life. Simple little things that make me happy on a daily basis. For the first time in a very long while have I finally felt like the planets have started to curiously align in my favor. Nothing special has happened yet. No special money, no double rainbows in my backyard, no winning lottery ticket, no hotels on Boardwalk, not even a "get out of Jail Free Card"! The only thing that I have managed to win this week is a little self awareness and a sense of urgency I haven't felt tingle down my spine in a long while. Mr. David Edward Canto begins another chapter that he himself hasn't even anticipated, yet he welcomes it just as much as he welcomes the fact he is writing in third person now. I have once again become the narrator in my book and the climax starts at the prologue.

The future is bright.

Alas my Hour

At what point and time do I have to remind you of the consequences that arrive due to the timely manner of your irresponsible and preposterous actions and lack thereof? To which conclusion I may arrive at this time is inconclusive, to what time I may arrive is finite. The books which align the many crevasses of a shelf are only periodically stable in correspondence to its reading hour. Every day has one blue, five to six soap operas and eighteen and a half chocolates. Nikola Tesla said it best, "The hardest part of the month are the last twenty nine days".
