Reasons: Why – “We” – Women Are Amazing!

Digital Art Work-6

Greetings, Everyone!

Today I felt the need to write about why the woman it’s so amazing!
Yep, we are so cool! And my dear boy, guy, dude, man, handsome, charming, prince, king, etc…you are reading me too, well, you’re more than agree with me. Jejejeje! Please confess, “muy machos” but you can’t live without us…

Here are some of many reasons why we “girls” are so amazing!

1 We are alive
2 We are beautiful
3 We are spectacular girlfriends and wives
4 We give birth
5 We are smart, we are creators, and we invent things
6 We are strong – Means, we kick some ass when we have to, you know
7 We are fantastic daughters, sisters, nieces, granddaughters
8 We are so funny
9 We are intense sports fans
10 We smell amazing
11 We are great dancers
12 We talk too much but we are good listeners
13 We give courage
14 We get better with age
15 We put up with male’s nonsenses, lol… the truth, Man ‘You” give us such a headache, but we can’t live without these nonsences. Oh my, what a girl do for the man she loves… in the good sense of the expression, of course.

And…
and I say…
And…

16 We are there when “You” – Male – need us the most.

A Big Hug To All My Fellow Bloggers

BlogMouse

Greetings Everyone!

I just can’t help it and I need to let this out.

I’am sending right now “A Big Hug To All My Fellow Bloggers” for all the writing, reading, inspiration, dedication, and all those etc times where thanks to the internet our blogs bring us together to share, communicate, and express ourselves.

Here some quotes.

A blog is merely a tool that lets you do anything from change the world to share your shopping list.
Unknown

Blogging is a great way to show your talents and interests to prospective employers, while adding an edge to your resume. If you blog consistently it shows your dedication, passions and creativity – all of which are key attributes employers look for in job candidates.
Lauren Conrad

I’ve never done a film before where every single person in the audience knows the ending. I mean suspense, twists are almost impossible these days. People are blogging your endings from their cinema seats.
Danny Boyle

I think of us as journalists; the medium we work in is blogging.
Joshua Micah Marshall

I started blogging in 2006 when I had sold my first novel but it had not yet been published, in those anxious months in between while I learned the whole process.
Laini Taylor

Blogs, social networks, newspapers, any other form of publication – all have social aspects to them. It is a spectrum really, with social networks at one extreme and a 19th century novel at the other. But there’s room for all types of social publishing platforms.
Richard MacManus

Yes, blogging is entertainment. It is performance. Each blog post a show, sometimes an opera, sometimes a 30 second commercial. Like a show, it may start with a bang, lead you along from song to song, have a great climatic moment, then leave the audience wanting more.
Lorelle Van Fossen

As I have repeatedly written in one form or other, blogging is not about writing posts. Heck, that’s the least of your challenges. No, blogging is about cultivating a mutually beneficial relationships with an ever-growing online readership, and that’s hard work.
Alister Cameron

Blogging is good for your career. A well-executed blog sets you apart as an expert in your field. Penelope Trunk

I Love Blogging

Sincerely,
Diana.

Music – A feast for the ears, the heart, and the soul.

Music Is Life

Greetings Everyone!

My today’s post it’s about one of my “all time” favorite joys in my life… “Music”.
I thank God for these two ears of mine, my heart, and soul to let me appreciate good music.
I listen music every single day because that’s something I just can’t avoid, that I need, I really enjoy, and inspires me. Music is life!
I mean, for example, music from movies… it’s like a voice of the character itself! Who haven’t seen “Jaws”? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZvCI-gNK_y4 The music is telling you… Shark: “Here I come!” and let’s you know that something is going to happen right there in that moment.
What about “Indiana Jones”? Oh my goodness! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-bTpp8PQSog The theme song is telling you “I’am delivering you such an amazing adventure!”
Can you imagine how boring the movies would be without music? Even Charlie Chaplin knew it in his times of silent movies. There was the piano or the orchestra playing at the movie theater.
I just admire all those “Genius” composers that have the gift to take you deep, making your heart beat fast in fear, love, and enjoyement.

MovieThemeSongs

Music is good for the body and the soul, from classical to rock and pop…
We dance, we sing, we get closer to our loved ones and friends, we share, we live such moments of company and love.
There are songs that have been able to deliver strong and powerful messages in their lyrics and music itself that they were written in such perfection that you don’t need to be a master to understand that sound and that lyric was meant to be there in its place.
For me, the best singer and composer in this field is “Michael Jackson” and I remember I was 9 years old when I discovered him when I got “Thriller” as a birthday present.

This amazing man found the inspiration to create touching songs in his way to help the children and all the world. He awoke himself the need and embraced it as much as he could leaving a treasure legacy that continues inspiring many from the music industry and music lovers around the world. Just listen to “USA For Africa” “Man In The Mirror” “Heal The World” “Earth Song” and the message it’s there. What an amazing and touching way to get you, embrace you, to create consciouness about our world and our children than with Music… Don’t you think? This man used his fame and fortune to make a difference.

Michael Jackson

To finish my today’s post, all I can say is:

I send all my gratitude to all the musicians in the world who have been able to make history in each one of our hearts and souls.

Sincerely,
Diana.

The tale of the two old ladies, the door, and the eggs.

Greetings Everyone!

Today I feel the need to share with you one of my Diana Arco’s short tales having fun style, lol.

Oh well, Enjoy!

The Tale Of The Two Old Ladies, The Door, And The Eggs.

This is the present and I’am aware of these words of mine
Where the tale I’am about to tell you
Came out from my deepest place from all.
The land of dreams that I visit at nights
It’s also a source for inspiration for me to write
When I remember what I found out, of course,
Rich in symbology, sounds, and colors,
Just a world within another for me to explore.

So let’s start this adventure
With these following words…

Once upon a time,
In the land of my dreams,
I was in a candlelight living room
Surrounded by old paints on the walls,
And red old dust furniture…so antique,
Old fashioned the time to be,
‘Cause I was wearing blue jeans,
White tshirt, and my favorite sneakers.

I was there, alone,
Staring at the blazing logs in the fireplace,
When I heard someone calling out my name.
She was such an old lady,
Wearing a long brownish dress,
Like coming out from another time,
Victorian era?…I guess.

I knew I’ve never seen her before in my life
But in my dream she was a dear relative of mine.
She invited me to visit her neighbour,
For a small and privileged gathering,
So I agreed polite.

I opened the door and we both left the room.
I was holding a burning candle,
It was dark to my eyes,
But we managed to walk a few steps
Until we’ve reached the door.
The old lady showed me a pair of small keys.
And that took my attention…
“That lady had the door keys of her neighbour.”

But my eyes noticed a pair of bigger keys
Hanging by the door with a golden string.
I suggested the old lady to use those instead,
But she was insisting to open the door with her smaller old keys.
What a waste… the keys didn’t fit in.
“Step aside, stubborn old woman.
You’re doing it wrong.” I said in my despair.

I took the bigger keys and I opened the door,
To find myself in the same living room
Surrounded by old paints on the walls and red old dust furniture.
I asked to myself “What’s going on in here?”
But that question went away when I saw another old lady
Wearing the same brownish dress.
She was standing beside a round wooden table
Without expression in her face.

The atmosphere was ready for us,
With plates, napkins, silverware, and cups.
The coffee was smelling so good,
There were lots of cakes to choose from,
And a simple orange bowl with hard boiled eggs.
The old lady invited us to join her
Under the lights of candle burning sticks.

We took our seats,
I was between the two old ladies twins.
And we were in silence
Deciding what to eat.
Then, more comfortable… I saw them drinking coffee
With elegant manners.
I saw them eating cake,
Small bites at the time, enjoying its flavour.

And I just couldn’t help it,
My mouth was melting,
I took the orange bowl before my eyes
Without even thinking.
The eggs where the best ever
And I felt so satisfied.
The two ladies took their napkins to their lips,
Offended towards me.
“Child, what have you done?”
Both asked at the same time.

I didn’t understand their dramatic behavior
“You ate the eggs!” both of them complained.
“Of course I did, those were there on the table.”
I replied with surprise in my eyebrows and my voice.
“Those cakes and coffee were not my temptation.”
I said in my defence.
“I ate what I needed and there isn’t regret in me.”

Then there was such an uncomfortable silence…
And I understood many things.
The main one:
“I have no need to be here.”
I decided to stand up and leave.

I said “good bye, my old ladies twins”
“It was a pleasure to meet you,
But I must get going now.”
“You ate the eggs!” they yelled at me again.
“Of course, that’s why I need to go away,
There is no place for me in here anymore.”

So I kissed their foreheads,
I smiled at them,
And I walked away
Out that door,
Feeling so ready for my next adventure.
“Oh, my…I really ate those hard boiled eggs on the table!”

Sincerely,
Diana.

THE DOOR KEYS EGGS

And to close…
Here find a few quotes that I chose about my tale that you just read.

“There are as many worlds as there are kinds of days, and as an opal changes its colors and its fire to match the nature of a day, so do I.”
John Steinbeck

“I often sit and watch the leaves change colour and fall from the tree. To me, those leaves signify the constant change in our own lives and all the beautiful colours signify our own emotions. As the leaves, change and fall from the tree’s with such grace and gentleness, they’re reminding us to be gentle with ourselves as this chapter ends and the next journey begins in our lives.”
― Annalee Hopkins

“In literature and in life we ultimately pursue, not conclusions, but beginnings.”
― Sam Tanenhaus, Literature Unbound

“The ending is nearer than you think, and it is already written. All that we have left to choose is the correct moment to begin.”
― Alan Moore, V for Vendetta

“Everything that has a beginning has an ending. Make your peace with that and all will be well.”
― Jack Kornfield, Buddha’s Little Instruction Book
