Quienes realmente amamos y somos amados no morimos nunca, aunque nos vayamos.
Tal es la verdadera y final victoria del amor sobre la muerte y sus múltiples formas: el olvido, la enfermedad, la guerra...
Nosotros pasamos, el amor permanece.

One unexpected side effect of raising children by actually talking to them like real people instead of tiny clueless accessories… is that they quickly become VERY aware of when adults start talking down to them.
My mom always treated me like my thoughts mattered.
She explained things instead of using “because I said so.”
The problem is that once kids grow up being respected, they start noticing every moment another adult tries to patronize or control them for no reason.
Apparently this led to me being described throughout school as:
“Undermining authority.”
“Disrupting the classroom environment.”
“Disobeying elder peers.”
And my personal favorite:
“Attempting to unionize the grade eleven gym class with intent to incite mutiny.”
Which honestly still sounds impressive to me.
Anyway, now I’m an adult who instinctively encourages kids to question nonsense instead of blindly obeying it.

In 1998, I was fired from my corporate job while 9 months pregnant because and I quote, “my priorities would be elsewhere after the baby is born.”
The lawyer I hired told me I didn’t have a case because discrimination like “that” was almost impossible to prove.
So I got pissed.
Took the LSAT. Went to law school. Passed the bar. Had 3 more kids.
Twelve years later, another woman from that same company was fired for the same reason. She sued them for a million dollars, and won, partly because I had kept every piece of evidence from what happened to me years prior demonstrating a systemic pattern of discrimination against women.
That company no longer exists. My law practice is thriving. And that baby they said would derail my priorities? She’s a brilliant attorney now working at my firm.
Turns out my priorities were indeed, elsewhere.

I shop secondhand online for clients all day, everyday, in 20+ countries, and by far, the best tool is Gem. It searches hundreds of secondhand platforms: eBay, Poshmark, Vestaire, and plenty of smaller ones. You can filter for size, country, anything. gem.app

The greatest skill you can acquire is to learn to have a really good time by yourself.
And that does not mean binge watching Netflix, or scrolling on social media. That is you trying to escape yourself and your life. But spending time doing things where you are actively involved like cooking, playing music, reading, learning a new skill etc.
People who can do that well also make for great friends, colleagues, neighbours. Their cup is always full so they come out into the world with good energy. They are not seeking someone to make them feel better, instead they are the person who makes everyone else feel good.

A harvest mouse can literally fit inside a tulip.
These tiny mammals weigh less than a quarter of an ounce, making them light enough to perch inside delicate flowers without bending the stem.

Esto es de lo más grave que está pasando. México ha sido un país donde se persigue y asesina a defensores ambientales, del territorio y de derechos humanos. Son ataques sistemáticos y planeados, no meras reacciones del co.
🟥 #Guerrero | La Organización Campesina de la Sierra del Sur (OCSS), de la comunidad de Tepetixtla, municipio de Coyuca de Benítez, señaló que el gobierno federal mantiene la narrativa de que los recientes ataques con explosivos a poblados indígenas de Chilapa de Álvarez, que provocaron el desplazamiento de familias, se debe a disputas entre grupos criminales y no al intento de mineras extranjeras para apropiarse del territorio y sus recursos naturales.

‘Gustave Moreau's 1894 painting - one of mythology's brutal stories. The story starts with a jealous wife and a question she already knew the answer to.
Semele was a mortal woman. Young, beautiful, chosen by Jupiter himself...king of all gods. They were lovers. She was carrying his child.
Juno found out.
Juno was Jupiter's wife. Immortal, untouchable and the kind of angry that doesn't shout. She couldn't go after Jupiter, nobody goes after the king of gods. So she went after the woman instead.
She disguised herself as Semele's old nursemaid. Showed up warm..familiar, trustworthy, sat with her, listened...and then, gently, planted a single thought!
*How do you really know he's Jupiter? Any man can make that claim. If he truly loves you, ask him to prove it. Ask him to appear to you the way he appears to his wife.*
Semele believed her...and she asked.
Jupiter knew the moment she said the words exactly what it meant. A mortal body and a god in full divine form? - the gap between those two things isn't romantic.. it's fatal. Like trying to hold lightning with bare hands.
He begged her to take it back...offered her anything else. but she held firm!
So he showed himself.
the light ⚡ alone ended her.
But then something strange happened. Jupiter reached into the wreckage and pulled out the unborn child. Sewed him into his own thigh. He carried him to full term himself..and when the time came, Dionysus (god of wine and ecstasy)...came into the world through his father's leg.
Born twice. First from a mortal woman who was tricked into dying, then from the god who couldn't save her.
Moreau painted the exact moment the light hits. Jupiter sits on his throne, enormous, ornate, almost inhuman just ’woieksjeksjdi’ - draped in every symbol of divine power ever imagined, imagine.
Semele is across him, tiny, already gone. Her body already leaving..and all around them, the entire universe is reacting (gods, demons, angels, creatures) all witnessing the precise moment mortality meets divinity, and mortality loses.
At the base of the throne.
Moreau painted two figures and named them himself.
One was Death; holding a bloodied sword.
the second one, Sorrow, crowned with thorns.
"These," he wrote, "form the tragic basis of human life."
Semele never held her son. Her son became a god. And the woman who engineered the whole thing was back in Olympus before the body was cold. Juno never said another word about it. She didn't need to.
She hadn't laid a hand on Semele. She'd simply asked a question, pointed it in the right direction...and let love finish the rest.
bottom line; Gustave Moreau's painting is a masterpiece.
