  • Happy Illusion

    There's only one thing for certain: I love to feel this way!

    I wish I could say his name but I can't so I will call him CB. He works with me, yes that means I am his boss. I know is not quite professional to like an employee but he really is cute. There's something about him and his gorgeous blue eyes that just rock my world. I feel like if I had superpowers. This is how everything started.

    He started to look at me weird and maybe a little bit too much during the training period. In that moment I was still thinking about the other unknown love-hate guy, remember? He stared at me in a funny way all the time and when we made eye contact he would turn red and smile. At first I thought it was creepy, but then after two months I find it mesmerizing. Mesmerizing in a way that would make anyone melt down when he smiles. Then I met his whole family: mom, dad, sister, and even grandmother who turned out to speak perfect Spanish. Btw, I looovvveee his grandmother. She seems to be a very interesting and loving person. I liked her. Anyways, his family goes to eat where I work too often. Probably two times a week or more. Weird, I know. He also eats there on his lunch breaks when he works at the pool as a lifeguard. Too often also. Creepy. A couple of weeks ago he told me he was going on vacation to Malaga, a beautiful beach in Spain. Yeah, Spain, Europe. I've never been to Malaga but I heard it has an astonishing view. Plus, women from Malaga tend to have this huge and black eyes, which I don't have. Sorry about the fact. Going back to his vacation. He asked me to go with him. To Malaga with his family and him. Can you imagine me walking with this manly human sculpture on the beach? Yeeehaaa!

    As you can guess I had to say no for three reasons:
    1. He is a perfect stranger who I've known for barely two months.
    2. I am totally broke and my dad is soooo jealous he wouldn't accept to afford it.
    3. My dad, of course brilliant, had the amazing idea of coming from Spain to see his daughter (it would be funny if he comes to America to visit me while I travel to Spain with CB)

    Besides all the oh, so good physical traits he possesses, what matters is what he makes me feel. I feel clean and pure. I feel simple and innocent. I feel like I could take my time with him, there's no rush. I am letting him see who I really am, slowly waiting for him to digest my personality. I am enjoying every single moment like I never did before. There's no envy or prejudice or arrogance. I can't be arrogant or egocentric with him. My wild instinct of survival inside of this world full of male chauvinists is fading away. I am believing again. And that's what terrorizes me the most. I shouldn't believe in anyone. I shouldn't trust anyone. But he just makes me realize what I have been missing for not taking risks. I am afraid to take a chance with him. My mother told me that I should do it but without expecting too much from him. She said we are only humans and when we are in love we pretend to be the ideal but as we fall out of love then we lose that magic. I think I should enjoy the in-love period with him before reality hits, huh? 

    We only talk about random stuff. When he asks me something personal, I tell him carefully thinking about my words before I let them out. You see, he looks and talks like a player but then I don't think I should let appearances fool me. He is a very hard working guy. He has two jobs and a lovely family who seems to be truly proud of him. He has his faults but probably nothing to worry about. I hope so. You see why I am afraid? I tend to trust people too much. And I end up with my heart in little pieces. My hispanic blood is extremely passionate. In every single way. The harmful side of being passionate hurts so much. Tell me about it.

    There's a song that every time I listen to it I am able to picture him in my head. Really, when I see him this close to me I just want to pull him towards me and kiss him so badly. I want him to embrace me between his strong and tanned arms. And squeezed this fantastic illusion out of me. These feelings belong to him. Here CB, they are all yours!

    From the bottom of my heart, Vera.

  • Unedited love

    I dreamed about you...
    I woke up when I understood all this which I know it's alive because of you. I screamed when I thought I could lose you. I was dreaming by your side; feeling you, seeing you, touching you. We were finally together. We were finally one. I left you for a moment, I kissed you, I smiled at you and walked away forcing my feet to move. On the way out I knew, I just knew you were going to wait for me. I didn't have any doubt about it. This which inhabits us if love is big enough to describe it then let us call it love. You love me. And I love you. I'm not afraid of it. I don't regret it. It was a long journey and we finally have the chance to walk next to each other as equals. As I was going back to you, my steps were short and the closer I got to you the faster my feet moved. I saw myself running towards you. You stood up and embraced me. I felt your arms like morning glory ought to be. I was back. You were there. You kissed me like if I had been gone for years. I whispered in your ear without letting you go: "it was only a minute". "I know, but I missed you" you replied holding my head between your warm hands. Your splendid eyes stared at mine. God exists! -we both shared the thought.
    That moment I knew all the pain and suffering was worth it. I knew I could live this life again if you were going to be there waiting for me. Thank you for loving me like you do.

    Another one of my -honey blogs-. I have been feeling kind of caramelized lately. I feel sticky. Ewww! ;)
    I had a dream last night. It was delightful. Indescribable. The story above is a little bit of that dream. It felt as if I was living it. He is my unedited love and this piece of my heart is for him.

    I don't think I could tell you
    how many times I have wished you
    to be present in my life.
    I have needed you
    when I cried,
    when I smiled,
    when I laughed,
    when I yelled.
    Every shooting star
    which crawls across the sky
    stops to listen to my plead:
    I wish, I wish, I wish he was here.

    I have lost my strength
    all the way where I can't remain standing anymore.
    I have been on the floor,
    I had given up,
    but there's always you.
    You.
    Only you.
    To lend me a hand.
    To make me blush.
    To teach me how to live.

    My Daddy sent you here.
    I begged Him to send you with me.
    He heard me.
    He understood me.
    My inner light shines again.
    Shines forever.
    Trespassing the bitter taste
    of my hollow days.

    I am alive.
    I love you.

    From the bottom of my heart, Vera.

  • Best days of your life

    Have you ever had the feeling of missing the best days of your life? But you don't really know what is it that you are missing about them. Have you ever had a feeling of being lost in yourself and not being able to find your destiny? Have you ever had a feeling of solitude and emptiness that surpasses your strength and turns you into one more puppet? A blue puppet played by whoever wants to. You know there's something moving your hair and you call it wind because it's what you know that could move things like that. And then you realize there's actually something else-many other things- that could also move your hair. There are people who show it to you. People who walk into your life to prove you that you are wrong. The more you learn, the more miserable you feel. I understand ignorance but I can't accept it.

    I understood it's all about growing up more spiritually than physically. We all have different priorities and that's what makes us special. But, how special would you like to be? Would you like to be a yellow special who gets everything in life without applying any force at all? Would you like to be an orange special who lives right in the middle of everything and nothing? Or, would you like to be a red special who has to get everything for himself/herself and life lies completely on his/her hands? If this is the scale, who wants to be special at all?

    The best days of your life are described as being the most memorable ones; when there is nothing in this world that could mess them up, when you had the worst day ever and you are still smiling at the end of it, when you sigh for no apparent reason at all, when you look up at the clear sky and put your hands together to say thank you. I bet all of you have had at least one. I have had many of them and I don't regret any. But the days I am missing are the ones I can't have. I could number all the reasons why I can't have them. They might sound like excuses but reasons are the ones that interfere with free will. The main excuse is that the only way I could think of goes against my principles and rules. The main reason is that I am not allowed to.

    I feel like I am wasting all the good things I was given. Time takes them away from me. I let people take a piece of me with them but they never appreciate it. I try to reinforce them, to put a steal shield around them but somehow I still feel broken. Broken and glued back together many times. And then broken again while the green morning breeze sweeps the small particles of me as I crack. I am afraid. I accept it. I am terrified.

    I tell him as he patiently heats up my feeling of freedom-what do you know-
    I tell her as she freely walks away-don't look back-
    As if I was speaking to myself and as if I could see my dreams reflected on their reality. I admire them. I admire how special they both are.

    I feel numb as everything within me screams-go!- but then I open my eyes and I am afraid of falling into the inevitable. I chose to walk with my eyes open. I don't want to look at things like if they were all white. I requested not to be blind. And this is the price I am paying for it.

    Numb. Fragile. Inevitable.
    From the bottom of my heart, Vera.

  • Why males suck so badly? (a feminist speaking)

    I know, I know. I shouldn't talk about guys. Well, I guess it's okay every once in a while. Specially when I want to speak what most women think but none dare to say it. So pay close attention because I am about to YELL what my heart feels. I hope you agree!

    You were born into a woman. You hate corporal hair and find any possible way to get rid of it. You keep wanting to be taller and leaner. You wear makeup to try to hide all your imperfections. Your wardrobe has more clothes than it can hold but none of them fit you like you wish they would. Your purse holds a >huge and messy< feminine world inside of it where you can't even find your car keys. You have long and painful periods. You were meant to wash dishes, raise babies, please husbands, cook, clean clean clean, work work work, solve everybody's problems before your own, listen to everyone, give without asking for anything in return, love unconditionally, support your family, get married, maintain yourself the most ethereal possible throughout your love relationships, scare all female b**** "flies" away from your man, take care of grandparents and parents when they grow old, blah blah blah blah... in fact all of our lives are dedicated to someone else but ourselves. It's nice to say that helping others you are SOMEHOW helping yourself but, is it true? Is living everybody else's lives a way to reach inner happiness? Is all the suffering worth of being a woman? It's certain that only women have the greatest privilege of giving birth but we always need a piece of a male (sperms).

    Guys vs. Girls
    If a woman burps she is a tomboy, if a guy burps it's funny.
    If a woman laughs loud she is irritating, if a guy laughs loud he looks even cuter.
    If a woman says a cuss word she doesn't have manners, if a guy says a cuss word it becomes famous.
    If a woman rests for a little bit she is lazy, if a guy sits for a little bit he is in deep thought.
    If a woman disagrees with something she is being selfish, if a guy disagrees with something he is expressing his point of view.
    If a woman cheats on her man she is a "W", if a guy cheats on his woman she must be a "W" with him.
    If a woman doesn't want to get married she is an open-legged, if a guy doesn't want to get married he must be an incredible and outstanding angel who wears a human disguise.
    And the list keeps and keeps on going. It's sooo unfair!!!
    But if you think about it, there are some good reasons to be a woman.
    1. As a human you possess the right to ignore everybody and choose your own path. Although your friends and family say you are an egocentric human trash, you absolutely have the right to think about yourself.
    2. Your smile can make any person fall in love with you.
    3. You decide which bastard you want to date.
    4. Your sweet puppy face makes miracles.
    5. You wear high heels and put your hair down and turn into a stunning supermodel. I have to say that you were already a supermodel but you just add a little detail to become a STUNNING supermodel. :)
    6. You only wear makeup to feel pleasure as you turn your head away from those sexy looks every single male gives you.
    7. You choose when and why to have babies.
    I still need to think of more... Anyways, the point is: why males suck so badly? Well, it's not only because they always get the credit for everything women do, or for the fact that they are forgiven so many wrong things they do, or because if you take the cute words out of it the phrase says "women should be devoted to the male gender throughout their whole lives".Aggghhhhh!
    Men suck because they don't deserve all the greatness within us and that we tenderly place it on a silver platter in front of them.
    Men suck because they have so many divine women to choose from and still we are the ones who should take the first step.
    Men suck because everywhere we go, they are always on our minds when more important matters should be in their place.
    Men suck because when they look at us they make us feel butterflies in our bellies.
    Men suck because we care for them, because our human nature makes us need them so badly, because they make us feel complete, because we inevitably love them no matter what they did.
    Men suck because although they don't shower, shave or use deodorant, they cannot stop being cute.
    Men suck!!!!! Badly!!!!

    Now if you ask for my own opinion I would say:
    Males suck because they are never enough.
    Males suck because they are always terrible at everything they do.
    Males suck because they always disappoint me.
    Males suck because they are all retarded.
    Males suck because they can never do anything for themselves.
    Males suck because they are mature enough when their hair turns white and they start losing their teeth.
    Males suck because they think we need them.
    Males suck because some brainless girls still fight for them against another brainless girl.
    Males suck because they steal our freedom as females and even as humans.
    Males suck because no matter what we do, we are always wrong.
    Males suck because we don't show them we love them the way they want to.
    Males suck because they think we are always available for them.
    Males suck because they think they govern our stupid minds.
    Yeah, I'm one of those rare women who date men for the simple pleasure of dumping them when they become useless. Cold-hearted? I prefer the terms MODERN and INDEPENDENT. If men do so with us then why shouldn't we do it with them. After all we are as free and as equal as they are, right?
    Do males suck for you?

    PS. Males, I have nothing against you. I haven't got my heart broken or anything that would make me feel hatred towards men. I just believe it's time for us to show males the freedom they say we have.
    There's a song that says:
    If I was a woman
    I wouldn't get married
    I wouldn't wear any bra
    I wouldn't take any pill, let him take them
    And now that you know it
    Now take me with you
    Hahaha! It's a very nice song. In Spain La Quinta Estacion plays it but I think it was written by Joaquin Sabina.

About Me

  • Well, let's say Vera is a passionate, honest and untamed person. She lives her life to the fullest but always trying not to hurt anyone. Vera is the kind of person who loves to experience and understand new emotions, feelings and situations. She is a dreamer. Vera is in search of her inner self... This is the quote that best describes me: “I don’t live in either my past or my future. I’m interested only in the present. If you can concentrate always on the present, you’ll be a happy man. Life will be a party for you, a grand festival, because life is the moment we’re living now.” by Paulo Coelho in The Alchemist. I live by this book!
