20 characteristics

alex peralta

There was once a young girl that was very shy and trapped in here little shell. One day she decided to break her shell and be a more radiant, confident and outgoing person hoping to gain new friends. she started by changing her typical image. she was tall and lean but she lacked a certain characteristic that would make her stand out. She tried changing her long shiny black hair to a  more colorful red hair hopping that would be enough to make her stand out, but she still could see that there was something missing. Perhaps changing her eye color would, she went from brown to blue and to green. However, there was that particular characteristic that still was missing. she was a smart girl and very optimistic. She kept on trying and trying, but not even a fake beard and mysterious glasses would make a difference. Until she finally realized that changing herself was not possible and that was when she finally understood! that she doesn't need to be someone else to have more friends, all she needs is to lose her fear and be more talkative to get out of her shell. She was finally happy and with a big smile on her face she liked her new self.

Once a young girl that used to be very shy decided one day to break her shell and to be more radiant, confident and outgoing hoping to gain new friends. she started by changing her typical image thinking it would be easier for her to be noticed. everyone wanted to be tall and lean, but she thought differently. She wanted to be a whole different person. She tried changing her long shiny black hair to a  more colorful red hair hopping that it would be enough to make her stand out, but she still could see herself looking back on her bedroom mirror. what could she be missing?. Perhaps changing her eye color would do it, she went from brown to blue and to green. However, she could still see something missing. As a smart girl and very optimistic she kept on trying and trying, but not even a pare of silly glasses and a fake mysterious beard would make a difference. She could still see herself. Until she finally realized that trying to be someone else will never work and in that moment she finally understood! that she doesn't need to be someone else to have more friends, her image never interfere like  her fear to be more talkative to get out of her shell. Finally happy and with a big smile on her face she liked her new look.

credo

Live life of freedom and balance
Enjoy present moment and accept who I am
Learn and Grow Each and every Day
Be grateful for who I am and what I have
Constantly raising mine and other peoples awareness
Accept others for who they are
Refining personal talents and develop them as much as possible

after reading several creeds i found myself reading the one that spoke my believes in each single sentence.
i believe on freedom, but not in a patriotic way. i believe that every single living creature is entitled to freedom and nothing should keep us from enjoining one of life's greatest attribute.
balance, its somehting i started to believe when i notice the pattern, that life can exist without this simple principle, there is a balance to everyithng that i can think of, hoever, it doesn't mean that if something is out of balace than the whole universe and life as we know it will collapse. life has found the perfect balance and its inspirering, and here is where we need to find our one balance in our lives regarding everything and if we dont than there will be outcomes that will keep us from living a great happy life.
learning a growing every day is more of my rule than just a believe, the more we learn the better we can enjoy life and the more we grow the more clear we can see live, but again u need to learn to be able to grow and you need to grow to be able to learn and here is a great example of perfect balance.
being grateful is a way to show your true gratitude to what live was given you and where it has taken you, being grateful is acknowledging and seeing the light  in the darkness in moments of pain, is coming to a realization that there will be another sunrise or to stopping for a second and recognizing that there is beauty and pace in a moment of sadness.
something i ve been realizing is that there is not greater gift to humanity then the gift of teaching others strong values and raising mines and awareness. i will never convince someone to think my way or to see through my eyes what i see when i look at the eyes of God. but i will show you that i have strong values and strong believes that i had to build myself, i forged them through out my life and im still young meaning that there is a lot more work to do, if i could convince someone to, it would be on the power of their own criteria coming from a place of heart, mind and soul..
