In his book The Song of the Bird (which should be mandatory reading), Anthony De Mello tells the very short and beautiful story of the dialogue between a young husband and his wife. He says: "Someday we will be rich." And she replies: “We are rich already, dear. Someday we may have money.”

Cuando dejamos de confundir “ser” con “tener”, se disipa el autoengaño

En su libro El canto del pájaro (que debería ser de lectura obligatoria), Anthony De Mello cuenta la brevísima y bellísima historia del diálogo entre un joven y su pareja. El dice: “Querida, algún día seremos ricos”. Y ella responde: “Querido, ya somos ricos. Algún día tendremos dinero”. …

We can’t escape the past, but we can still see the future

Sometimes an unexpected void forms that we cannot fill

During the recent holiday season, I received a puzzle as a gift. It is not one of my favorite activities because putting together a puzzle requires patience, which, in turn, is not one of the highest points of my character. But the festive occasion and the collaboration of the family led me to parti…

A veces se forma un inesperado vacío que no podemos llenar

Con motivo de las recientes fiestas de fin de año recibí de regalo un rompecabezas. No es una de mis actividades preferidas porque armar un rompecabezas requiere paciencia, que, a su vez, no es una de mis mejores características. Pero la ocasión festiva y la colaboración de la familia me llevaron a …
