True beauty....

EV:" You know, they’re chasing this fake rabbit. And every once in a while, one of these dogs—the one who is very fast—catches and bites the rabbit. And that dog is hurt. He bleeds; sometimes they break their jaws and teeth. And they’re suffering; they’re in pain. And that dog will never race again in its life, because he realizes he was chasing a lie. But the sad part is that the other dogs end up chasing that rabbit forever. "

These are the words of Eduardo Verastegui, A Mexican actor which I have new found respect for....in this interview which he did for "Past the Popcorn" a movie website, he explains how many of us live our lives and how we define success. To many it's empty and more about reaching superficial success, finding superficial love and going day by day living a meaningless life. This was an interesting analogy he used and thought i would share it. I watched two beautiful movies today one he stars in "Bella" and the other was "Brick Lane" which also had a wonderful cast of actors. I was very touched by both films and I highly recommend them, they show the beauty of humanity and touch on subjects universal to all of us....sadly I watched "Slumdog Millionaire" last night but was so tired from work earlier in the day that I slept through the middle part of the movie :( , the parts I did see were great and I hope to catch it on DVD once it comes out...a blessed weekend to all. Much love!

And a new year begins....

Well a new year has begun and I've thought to maybe enter daily lessons on here since I haven't really kept up with my blog. I've been really busy at my new job, which I'm loving and hating at the same time. I love my little patients, but I hate how inexperienced I feel going into this new venture! I'm currently working in the Pediatric Emergency room for a major county hospital and being that we are a trauma center we take in pretty hefty cases...which really scares me, but I'll hopefully continue to receive good training to let me be on my way to be the best damn er nurse I can be!!








This year I hope to make new and interesting friends, I'd like to find more substance and intellect in individuals. I find myself bored at the moment and unable to grow in the current friendships I have. I've started the process by looking for fun and interesting things to do around town. An interesting event I stumbled upon was the Downtown Artwalk in downtown Los Angeles. It was such a fun event, full of (of course art) and culture, just what the spirit needs at the moment! I can't wait for more fun events to attend, the year is young and we will see....Happy Birthday to my dear friend Ben, I hope one day he realizes what a special person he is and lets his self worth be determined by who he is and not what he believes other perceive him to be...xoxo
