Change sucks

My world has just been turned upside down.

Entiendo que la vida es cambiante, nada es estatico. Lo entiendo, lo acepto aunque no me guste para nada.
Me acaban de dar una noticia que me mortifica y me preocupa demasiado. Todo saldra bien al final, eso no lo dudo... pero el inter.. el camino... it's so scary sometimes.

I worry more for the person whose life is going to change so dramatically...I just don't know how he'll react to everything.
La pared de hierro que siempre me ha protegido de todos los males del mundo acaba de ser derrumbada. Me encuentro sin armadura, sin chaleco antibalas... sin nada.

I must repeat to myself: Change is good. I must say it....everyday, for the rest of my life.

Birthday Girl

"Birthdays are good for you. The more you have, the longer you live"

Just another year gone by, full of comings and goings. Full of happy moments, silly situations and more importantly, a year bursting with love.

Gracias a la vida, que me ha dado tanto.

Namarie!

MEXICO CITY, Mexico (AP) -- Mexico has overtaken Colombia and Brazil to become the world leader in reported kidnappings, a leading, private anti-crime group said Wednesday.

Investigators across the country reported 194 kidnappings from January through June, compared to 172 abductions registered during the same period by Colombian Defense Secretary officials and 169 reported kidnappings in Brazil, according to Jose Antonio Ortega, president of the Citizen Council for Public Safety.

Ortega said that instead of working to put kidnappers behind bars and weed out the corrupt police officers and officials who protect them, Mexican officials preferred to point to incomplete statistics and insist that the crime rate has gone down.

"Things are very grave," he said. "The country is breaking down and there's no one in charge."
