Change
Change. We don't like it. We fear it, but we can't stop it from coming. We either adapt to change or we get left behind. It hurts to grow, anybody who tells you it doesn't is lying, but here's the truth sometimes the more things change the more they stay the same. And sometimes, oh, sometimes change is good. Sometimes change is everything.

Battles
The key to being a successful in your career is what we give up. Sleep, friends and sometimes a normal life. We sacrifice it all for that one amazing moment in our careers. That moment when you can legally call yourself a successful professional.
But there are days that make the sacrifices seem worthwhile. And then there are the days where everything feels like a sacrifice. And then, there are the sacrifices that you can’t even figure out why you’re making.
A wise man once said, “You can have anything in life if you will sacrifice everything else for it.” What he meant is, nothing comes without a price. So, before you go into battle you better decide how much you’re willing to lose.
Too often, going after what feels good, means letting go of what you know is right. And letting someone in, means abandoning the walls you’ve spent a lifetime building.
Of course, the toughest sacrifices are the ones we don’t see coming. When we don’t have time to come up with a strategy, to pick a side, or to measure the potential loss. When that happens, when the battle chooses us, and not the other way around, that’s when the sacrifice can turn out to be more than we can bear. (MOV)

Jorge Bucai comenta en su libro "Cartas para Claudia" que las relaciones de pareja son inseguras, porque estos toman distancia uno del otro y no se aman por el temor de ser engañados o decepcionados. Es muy cierto lo que comenta sobre el decir “Te quiero” el querer implica una obligación un deseo de tener a la otra persona, en cambio el amar, es aceptar al otro, tal y como es, con sus cualidades y sus defectos, no aferrarla a nosotros ni obligarla a decirnos cosas que queremos escuchar, el amar es comprender al otro y conocerlo, el amar es cuando disfrutas el ver como crecen las alas y dejar volar al otro, no cortárselas.

Goodbye...
The dictionary defines grief as keen mental suffering or
distress over affliction or loss.
Sharp sorrow, painful regret.
As adults, we're taught to learn from and
rely on books, on definitions, on definitives.
But in life, strict definitions rarely apply.
In life, grief can look like a lot of things that bare little
resemblance to sharp sorrow.
Grief may be a thing we all have in common,
but it looks different on everyone...
It isn't just death we have to grieve, it's life, it's loss,
it's change...
And when we wonder why it has to suck so much sometimes,
has to hurt so bad, the thing we gotta try to remember is
that it can turn on a dime...
That's how you stay alive. When it hurts so much you can't
breathe. That's how you survive...
By remembering that one day, somehow, impossibly, you
won't feel this way. It won't hurt this much...
Grief comes in it's own time for everyone.
In it's own way...
So the best we can do, best anyone can do, is try
for honesty...
The really crappy thing, the very worst part of grief,
is that you can't control it...
The best we can do is try to let ourselves feel it, when
it comes...
And let it go when we can...
The very worst part is that the minute you think you're
past it, it starts all over again...
And always, everytime, it takes your breath away...
There are five stages of grief.
They look different on all of us.
But there are always five...
Denial...
Anger...
Bargaining...
Depression...
Acceptance...
