Hive this is me @soyunasantacruz

Who am I?

I know myself, I know enough about myself to write a post about myself, let's see.

IMG_20200911_102406.jpg

For some years now I have been working on discovering who I am and answering that question, I have done spiritual retreats, I have researched various religions, but I tell you today that I am not religious, I consider myself spiritual.

And since I am on this path I feel more complete, more observant of my defects, so that I can correct them and improve.

But this post will not deal with my spiritual evolution, on the contrary, I will expose in the beehive my defects and frustrated dreams.

Thanks to the initiative created by @jaynie that tries to present oneself, as a new opportunity for them to know us, if they want to participate I leave the link for them to follow the appropriate instructions, she kindly created a template to use as the main image.

Going back to my story, my life has been quite normal, quiet, and beautiful, with some difficult moments but no traumas to heal.

I am Venezuelan, living in my country, I am 41 years old, single and childless, with two university degrees, working since I was 14 years old. My occupation for more than 14 years was in the area of education, quitting 2 years ago.

That was a pretty drastic summary, if it was my elevator pitch I would be out of any successful contract. 😁

I will tell you who I am

A woman who likes the truth even if it is hard, I prefer it more than any half-truth.

Cheerful, passionate, I like to read and learn constantly, but I'm not persevering and at this moment I start to reveal my defects, so if you're bored make yourself comfortable that you won't have another chance to read my confession. 🤭

Since I was little I was restless but obedient, I was hyperactive but I always listened and behaved well, because I didn't like to be scolded. I was an excellent student always excelling in the group, I was between first and second place until I started to feel what they call envy and social rejection, as I liked to relate to others I decided to choose the herd that excellence.

And I settled for being the third or fourth-best in the class, that level allowed me to have "supposed friends" and be among the best.

I studied music and quickly learned to play the cuatro, after a month I got bored and started with the piano which I also quit when I thought I had mastered the instrument, nothing more false than that, practice makes perfect and if we don't persevere we won't be experts at anything.

That's how my life was, every time I half learned something, I got bored and left it, being in the same place and spending time with the same people annoyed me. I studied high school in 3 different institutions because I was bored with people and it was hard for me to finish university, not because of the studies themselves, but because I spent 5 years with the same people.

That's how my jobs were, I changed from one place to another, to meet other people, I like change and I adapt easily to it.

I planned my life but I didn't achieve the goals, because of my lack of constancy and commitment.

These were my goals

21 years as a university graduate.
25 with its flat.
26 married with children
30 traveling around the world.

What I achieved

21 years as a university graduate.
More than that.

At the age of 28, feeling somewhat frustrated, I decided to rethink my life goals.

From 30 to 35 years old, married with one child.
32 years old, graduated again.
35 traveling in some countries.
40 healthy in body and soul.
40 years owning a home.

What I achieved

32 years as a university graduate.
35 years I traveled through 5 countries.

When I reached 38 I went through a critical and reflective age. Now I write down my goals and make a wish map to see if I can materialize easier and faster what I want.

I am no longer sure that I want to get married or have children as a social requirement. If I marry it will be for love not for fear of loneliness (I like loneliness, I enjoy it, more than I should), if I have children they will be the product of love and desire not of social pressure.

I will show you my map of desire and when I saw it I realized that having a blog 🤔 has materialized. How incredible 😉 when I put it there, I didn't know how, or when, or what I would have a blog with. But the magic of my desire materialized and here I am.

MAPA 1.jpg

What I like

Reading, writing, learning, speaking, traveling, meeting people, and learning about their life stories, spirituality, music, dance, animals, nature, photography, chocolate, coffee, life, and love.

I write about spirituality, prosperity, and tourism, I love to participate in contests like this one.

Thank you for taking the time to get to know me, I hope it wasn't a waste of time.

Write down your wishes and dreams, be constant, persevering, and adjust your goals along the way but never give up on your dreams.

I would like to invite these people to take up this challenge

Hive esta soy yo @soyunasantacruz

¿Quién soy?

Realmente me conozco, sé lo suficiente de mí como para escribir un post de mi misma, veamos.

IMG_20200911_102406.jpg

Desde hace algunos años he trabajo descubriendo quien soy y respondiendo esa pregunta, he realizado retiros espirituales, he indagado varias religiones, pero definitivamente hoy les digo que no soy religiosa, me considero espiritual.

Y desde que estoy en este camino me siento más completa, más observadora de mis defectos, para poder corregirlos y mejorar.

Pero este post no tratará de mi evolución espiritual sino lo contrario, voy a exponer en la colmena mis defectos y sueños frustrados.

Gracias a la iniciativa creada por @jaynie que trata de presentarse a uno mismo, como una nueva oportunidad para que nos conozcan, si quieren participar les dejo el link para que sigan las instrucciones adecuadas, amablemente ella creó una plantilla para usar de imagen principal.

Volviendo a mi historia, mi vida ha sido bastante normal, tranquila y hermosa, con algunos momentos difíciles pero sin traumas que sanar.

Soy Venezolana, viviendo en mi país, tengo 41 años, soltera y sin hijos, con dos profesiones universitarias, trabajando desde los 14 años. Mi ocupación por más de 14 años fue en el área de la educación, renunciando hace 2 años.

Eso fue un resumen bastante drástico, si fuera mi elevator pitch estaría fuera de cualquier contrato exitoso. 😁

FB_IMG_1593611278865.jpg

Yo les diré quién soy

Una mujer que le gusta la verdad así sea dura, la prefiero más que cualquier verdad a medias.

Alegre, apasionada, me gusta leer y aprender constantemente, pero no soy perseverante y en este instante comienzo a develar mis defectos, así que si estas aburrido ponte cómodo que no tendrás otra oportunidad para leer mi confesión.🤭

Desde pequeña fui inquieta pero obediente, era hiperactiva sin embargo siempre hacía caso y me portaba bien, porque no me gustaba que me regañaran. Fui una excelente estudiante siempre sobresaliendo en el grupo, estaba entre el primer y segundo lugar hasta que empecé a sentir eso que llaman envidia y rechazo social, como me gustaba relacionarme con los demás decidí escoger la manada que la excelencia.

Y me conformé con ser la tercera o cuarta mejor del salón de clases, ese nivel me permitía tener "amigos supuestamente" y estar entre los mejores.

Estudié música y aprendí rápidamente a tocar el cuatro, luego de un mes me aburrí y comencé con el piano que también dejé cuando creí dominar el instrumento, nada más falso que eso, la práctica hace al maestro y si no perseveramos no seremos expertos en nada.

Así fue mi vida, cada vez que medio aprendía algo, me aburría y lo dejaba, estar en un mismo lugar y pasar tiempo con la misma gente me fastidiaba. Estudié la secundaria en 3 instituciones diferentes por estar aburrida de la gente y me costó terminar la universidad, no por los estudios en sí, sino por pasar 5 años con la misma gente.

Así fueron mis trabajos, cambié de un lugar a otro, para conocer otras personas, me gusta el cambio y me adapto fácilmente a ellos.

Planifique mi vida pero no cumplí las metas, por mi falta de constancia y compromiso.

Estas eran mis metas

21 años de graduada de la universidad.
25 con apartamento propio.
26 casada con hijos
30 viajando por el mundo.

Que cumpli

21 años de graduada de la universidad.
Más nada.

A los 28 años sintiéndome algo frustrada, decidí replantear las metas de mi vida.

De 30 a 35 años casada con un hijo.
32 años graduada nuevamente.
35 viajando por algunos países.
40 saludable en cuerpo y alma.
40 años vivienda propia.

Que cumpli

32 años de graduada de la universidad.
35 años viajé por 5 países.

Al llegar a los 38 años pase por una edad crítica y reflexiva. Ahora escribo mis metas y realizó un mapa de deseos para ver si puedo materializar más fácil y rápido lo que quiero.

Ya no estoy segura de querer casarme, ni de tener hijos como un requisito social. Si me caso será por amor no por miedo a la soledad (me gusta la soledad, disfruto de ella, más de lo que debería), si tengo hijos serán producto del amor y el deseo no por presión social.

Les mostraré mi mapa del deseo y al verlo caí en cuenta que se ha materializado tener un blog 🤔. Que increíble 😉 cuando lo puse allí, no sabía cómo, ni cuándo, ni con qué tendría un blog. Pero la magia de mi deseo se materializó y aquí estoy.

MAPA 1.jpg

Que me gusta

Leer, escribir, aprender, hablar, viajar, conocer a las personas y saber de sus historias de vida, la espiritualidad, la música, la danza, los animales, la naturaleza, la fotografía, el chocolate, el café, la vida y el amor.

Escribo sobre espiritualidad, prosperidad y turismo, me encanta participar en los concursos así como este.

Gracias por tomarte un tiempo para conocerme, espero no haya sido tiempo perdido.

Escribe tus deseos y sueños, sé constante, perseverante y ajusta en el camino tus metas pero nunca abandones tus sueños.

Me gustaría invitar a estas personas a realizar este reto

This is a good little initiative for people to expose a little more of themselves to the community and show some personality. I'm glad you joined in. I like this line you wrote too...

"Write down your wishes and dreams, be constant, persevering, and adjust your goals along the way but never give up on your dreams.."

Good work.

Jejej I understand, it's not easy to write and expose yourself.

It was very hard for me and to be honest more than two people I don't think will participate, nor will they realize my call 😔

Thanks for telling me, I already know you a little more @galenkp

Your writing style already exposes you more than any self-imposed revelation. It practically renders you naked. )

I think to some degree, if one is being candid when writing about oneself. However many can write in different ways, or styles, leaving the reader feeling, and believing, certain things; None of which may actually be true.

The thing is one cannot be candid about herself. Each person has a skeleton she holds in her closet and she guards this information with all her might. The human mind itself won't allow you to say all truth, the only truth, and nothing but the truth. even if you want to. However, your writing style is a killer. It shows who you are, bypassing your guard. It's not what you are writing about. It's how you write that betrays you. )

Putting your past/present and future thoughts into words allows one to map oneself out into realizing what you accomplish and where you possibly would like to go next.

Well done in completing such descriptive text @soyunasantacruz

This platform seems to be broken again.
Hi @soyunasantcruz, this is a great introduction, almost more of a history.
Some of the things either didn't translate well, or I am just not following, but it is all still very good.
At 18 yrs old, there were things I wanted to accomplish, things I had more or less planned. I'd already taken 6 yrs private piano lessons, so I was (and still am) quite good with music. I play piano and guitar (self taught) which includes lead guitar and bass, although since beginning my music career here around Atlanta Ga USA, I hardly have any reason to play guitar.
Upvoted and reblogged my new friend.
I have also followed you

Ah, too bad I didn't get the story right. I apologize because I use a translator for my publications.

My mother tongue is Spanish, I wonder if everyone would have that problem to understand me 🤔

Thank you, for expressing your opinion, if you are a self-taught musician it is because you have passion, congratulations.

Thanks for reading me, greetings 😉🤗 @jerrytsuseer

This is all I meant @soyunasantcruz.
In English
These were my goals
21 years as a university graduate. Were you a student for 21 yrs?
25 with its flat.(what does with its flat mean?)
26 married with children (I guess at age 25 you wanted to be married with children)
30 traveling around the world.

What I achieved
21 years as a university graduate. (so were you a student for 21 yrs?)
More than that.

At the age of 28, feeling somewhat frustrated, I decided to rethink my life goals.
From 30 to 35 years old, married with one child.
32 years old, graduated again.
35 traveling in some countries.
40 healthy in body and soul.
40 years owning a home.

What I achieved
32 years as a university graduate.(so you lived for 32 yrs as a graduate student?)
35 years I traveled through 5 countries.

This is not meant to be a denigration, just that the English translation left something to be desired.

So copying your Spanish, using google translate, I came up with this
[words in brackets added by me, as I understand your intent]
These were my goals
[at age] 21 year college graduate.
[at age] 25 with own apartment.
[at age] 26 married with children
[at age] 30 traveling the world.

[Goals]That I met
[at age] 21 year college graduate.
But nothing.

At 28 years old, feeling somewhat frustrated, I decided to rethink my life goals.
From 30 to 35 years old married with a son.
[at age] 32 year old graduated again.
35 traveling through some countries.
40 healthy in body and soul.
40 years own home.

That i met
32 years of college graduate.
35 years I traveled through 5 countries.

Jejejej was actually the translator ofelp and has always given me good results.

Jejejej grammar errors more than translation. Thanks

I definitely didn't spend as many years as a college student, just as long as necessary and fair.

And if I wanted to spend 35 years traveling but across the world.

Thank you for your good work with translation and interpretation. 😘🤭

Setting goals is a good thing. We all need to set some goals. Just because you don't reach them, doesn't mean that you failed or that you need to give up on them.. and I can see that your not giving up. You just adjust and shift. That's the way to do it. It sounds like your having fun with life regardless of where you thought you would be. One thing I have learned.. Life goes by fast! Enjoy YOUR time. Thanks for sharing a little about yourself today 😁

It sounds like your having fun with life regardless of where you thought you would be.

yes, I have had fun and been relaxed in some aspects of my life, others I have taken very seriously.

And I agree with you, life goes by so fast, for example I feel like I'm 20 years old and even though I look like I'm 30, it's not like that and the body knows it, there are things that the biological clock does not forgive.

Thank you for greeting me, you can visit me whenever you want, but bring cookies and chocolate, jijijij @bdmillergallery

Those lists of your goals compared to the reality are funny! I think we all have these lists. I am reminded of the song "Those Were The Days"

We'd live the life we'd chose, we'd fight and never lose, for we were young, and sure to have our way

I liked those verses in that song.

Those were the days we fought and would never lose.

I have to add that to be alive I need the inspiration
That muffles the spirit into something better
Living with passion is an avenue
Towards the destiny of our union

I could go on and make a song, but the idea is to show you my thanks for this moment of inspiration.

Thanks for leaving me that fragment of song. 😘 @owasco

Me encantan muchas cosas que cuentas sobre ti. Pero, particularmente, me gusta esto

A los 28 años sintiéndome algo frustrada, decidí replantear las metas de mi vida.

Y es que a cualquier edad se pueden tener frustraciones pero lo interesante es tener nuevas ilusiones, nuevas metas y nuevas perspectivas. Obviamente, tú lo has hecho. Felicitaciones @soyunasantacruz no solo por la sinceridad de esta publicación sino por toda tu vida. Brindo de alegría por ti. Saludos!

This is beautiful and so enjoyable to read, @soyunasantacruz. I think it's great that you a have done so much soul-searching to really find yourself. It can be a truly challenging and exciting journey. Goals and dreams are so important. They can provide the compass when life knocks us off course. I wish you joy and happiness, and the feeling of peace that you are exactly who you are meant to be.

What a good reflection, it is good to plan and to trace objectives, and not to get frustrated if they are not achieved.

Better to adapt to changes.
