(anyone who knows me knows that i'm not a big meat eater. bring on the veggies! until spain. and its love affair with meat. but not processed-pumped-with-hormones-and-chemicals meat. real meat. fresh as can be. nothing added. nothing taken away. full flavor. no need to over-season. usually just a dash of olive oil. some sea salt. maybe some herbs. that's it. even a simple chorizo--like below--is bursting with authentic, mouth-watering flavors. even for this veggie lover.)

1. life has many twists and turns. you can be on the path just find and then, boom! something changes. people change. there is always change. whether we like it or not.
2. we are all part of this big human chain. but to have that chain succeed, we need to never break it. we need to be connected. when we are connected, things like poverty should not exist.
3. well, i'm in it right now. i'm studying and applying for a government position. once you are hired officially, you have a job for life. you have full security. i'm so nervous though. i take my exams in a few weeks!
