Life, Brazil and Resilience!!!
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 29 °C, hot, sunny, and a little unstable. IT IS THE JOURNEY, NOT THE DESTINATION!!! The journey is more important than the destination. Sometimes the destination changes, but the journey remains the same. It is what we have. Without it, we have nothing. When we overly focus on reaching the destination, we overlook the journey, where […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 30 °C, hot, sunny and a little unstable. It is Friday, marking the end of the workweek for some people. I usually have fewer classes today, but completing them can be more challenging. Even though I will finish earlier than usual, the day and classes often seem to drag on. It is a psychosomatic response to […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 28 °C, hot, sunny, and a little cloudy. Yasmin is currently with me. She went to bed in a bad mood last night and, unfortunately, seems to have woken up in a similar mood for school today. At times, maintaining patience and dealing with constant negativity can be challenging. I wish she could focus more on […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 30 °C, hot, sunny and unstable. I woke up early today and headed to Leme for a rigorous workout. After that, I quickly returned home to shower, change, and give classes. Walking by the beach in the morning made me appreciate the beauty of Rio de Janeiro even more. It’s fantastic to have such stunning surroundings […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 32 °C, very hot and sunny. The morning was typical, with exercise and classes. In the afternoon, I had to pick up some money from a student and pay Dona Vera at Belli Occhi Otica, an optician’s where I have been buying glasses for years. The shop is in the same gallery where I used to […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 35 °C, very hot and sunny. It is Sunday, and it is boiling! Usually, on Sunday mornings, I like to do a light workout at the end of Leme, but this time, it turned out to be more demanding and even heavier than usual; I don’t know why. Yasmin woke up around 10:30 a.m. and expressed […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 33 °C, very hot and sunny. Yasmin is with me, and I am worried about her and money. The truth is that I’m concerned about everything at the moment. I know it is just the moment, but I’m freezing about taking the next step. It is not just for me but for Yasmin, too. Taking the […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 29 °C, hot and sunny. Although I enjoy journaling and writing in my diary, I’m starting to fall behind and write less frequently than I would like. I need to organise my time better and prioritise my writing to avoid falling further behind. It’s a matter of responsibility and discipline, and I must make it a […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 29 °C, hot and sunny. Yasmin has arrived, and I’m paying for her to exercise at one of the schools on the beach. However, she is not taking it seriously enough for my liking. After a stern talk, I clarified that I would continue paying only if she took it seriously. I study every day and […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 30 °C, hot and sunny. It’s the first day of a new month, and I have many plans and tasks ahead. The excitement of a fresh start is running through me, and I’m raring to go!!! However, today itself is pretty ordinary. I started the morning bright and early, kicked off with a hard workout at […]
