Be thankful !
Be thankful and kind
MARK TWAIN said, the more I know about people, the more I like my dog. Well, it took me time to figure out what he really meant because I did not have the chance to get a pet dog. I just could not afford one when I was young because daddy hates animals. Later on I got married, I realized my wife was not fond of any pets. Fortunately when she was 16, Isabelle, my daugther insisted on giving her a little brother to play with. Since I could not satistisfy her request, she made a bid, which I believe was a fair one. My wife and I agreed to let her adopt a puppy. This is how Sophie entered my life and became a member of the family.
I still do not know much about dogs, lke their breeds, their favorite diet, or their their preferences ; however, I have learned a lot of things about Sophie because there is a line of communication openned which is getting more explicit and much clearer between us. For example, I can tell when she wants something. She asks for water by intensely waving her tail every time I open the fridge; if I accidently ignore her request, then she barks at me in a way to call my attention. Also whenever she she wants to take a walk, she comes to me over and over begging me to take her into account. Just like a kid, she might drive someone crazy until she gets what she needs.
Sophie has an extensive vocabulary for a dog; in fact, she knows more than 500 words either in English or Spanish. My relationship with Sophie helps me understand much bettter some great qualities that are scaresely seen in some people nowadays such as, being thankful and being faithful.
In case I set Sophie free from a room where she got stuck, she licks my toe, meaning "thanks buddy". In contrast, some people are so unkind and rude today that you hardly hear words like "thank you" and "please". This lack of good manners and consideration trigger this high level of unthanfulness and violence in the world. It is high time we took drastic measures before things get worse. Starting from home, parents should dedicate more time to educate their children.Education is the most powerful lever that might help us curb this awkward situation.

Be a better you !
Be a better you
Have you ever looked adversity in the eye, and then smiled at? Or have you ever felt a tremendous pain somewhere in your body and ignored it? As human beings, resources you naturally possess to develop your potentials or overcome a challenging situation are countless. The key question is whether you accurately identify these innate powers and apply them to your own benefits. One of these overwhelming resources is called : resilience. What is it exactly and how should you eventually take advantage of it?
Resilience is defined as the capacity to quickly recover from difficulties and the ability to bounce back. It is also defined as the ability to withstand and face hardships. In fact, a person who is resilient is flexible and has the capacity to adapt to changes.
Furthermore, no matter how many times you fall, resilience helps you catch up the energy to stand and move on. Failure is part of the game , so you accept it while meditating on the lesson in order not to make the same mistakes over and over again. Keep the balance in everything to avoid putting your foot in ! Also it is worth being honest and showing great critical thinking skills, which will help you sort out entangled situations quickly.
Life is not a straight line; it has peaks and valleys. Therefore, you should always expect hardships. Anyway, exert yourself to show resilience !

Hispaniola 2
Hispaniola Island
( part 2 )
k
We are all amazed at the beauty of a green field, a snake-shape river gracefully flowing to its destination. We are all blown away by a picturesque sunset of the Caribbean islands.
No wonder, thousands of tourists every year invade our facilities either for fun or for hibernation sake. Who doesn't welcome an fascinating excursion to enjoy the wonders of these exotic places around here, which can't be seen anywhere else? Nobody in his or her right mind will turn down an all-inclusive package with airfare to the Caribbean islands such as Cuba, Bahamas, Virgin islands, or Hispaniola. Sleeping in a bungalow, rafting the rivers,, ridding horses, visiting the colonial zones, going hiking, sunbathing by the white-sand beaches are among the the most stunning and relaxing activities down here, which no doubt will make them want to come back. We all deserve a getaway alone or with family members in such unforgettable lovely place in which our mind, body, and soul feel the breeze of freedom and happiness.

Quisqueya
Quisqueya
Once upon a time, a picturesque island in the middle of the Caribbean appropriately named Quisqueya by the Tainos, the natives of the island ; however, later erroneously baptized"Hispagnola" by the Spanish conquerors . Most of the historians unanimously described the island as paradise on earth because Its rain forests , its landscapes, its beaches, and its biodiversity stuck out the overwhelming beauty of the island.
The pacific population who dwelt and enjoyed life on the island never got bored of the sunrise, which every single dawn highlighted the golden rays of the Sun wishing each inhabitant a wonderful day. They usually fished, hunted, and grew crop in their gardens. Each tribe dedicated time and energy in some dynamic segments of productivity of which they traded or just shared. Everything was well-organized. The Tainos were known to be friendly. Everyone respected each other, which promoted peace.
The system of goverment they used functioned perfectly. The tribes were divided in caciquats : Marien, Xaragua, Maguana, Magua, and Hyguey. Each cacique was a leader or king. And some of the most well-known Caciques were ; Caonabo , Guacanagaric, Guarionex, Cotubanama, Bohechio, to mention a few. Caonabo's wife was that famous queen named Anacaona. Caonabo had a lovely daughter called Mencia, who was the apple of his eye.
Therefore, life was worth living in such exuberant, healthy green foliage and vegetation, including so many attractions, places to visit, and rivers to swim or dive in. No wonder Quisqueya was considered the ' gem ' of the Caribbean .
