Happy 4th of July!

I hope many of you Americans are celebrating as it should be, it is after all, our independence (I'm half American and half Mexican) and it wasn't easy, like every other independence in general, really.

Gaining your own independence is victory. You get to write your own rules; how you're gonna live your life, when will you make a decision and how you will do it and weather you should express your self, as it should be, or not.

Speaking of independence...
Independence doesn't come in one day, it takes years and with those years you become more and more mature of how you want to live your life (in theory). Some people are afraid and so they back out, some people leave in the middle of it and some people risk it, to feel freedom, to feel complete control of their own body, mind and soul.
It isn't something just to-do, it's more of how you do it and what lies behind that action; memory's, thoughts, dreams, etc.

Someone without independence is someone ruled by a higher power. That's the reality with everything. In other words -but with the same meaning- someone who doesn't speak up and say what they want won't be going anywhere because there is someone pulling back.

Don't give up in anything, because when you do the world will rule over you and stomp you.

A person with a strong and firm heart can get anywhere and anything... I won't say at anytime because thing's just don't appear like magic, you have to work hard and with great attitude to get to the top.

Sure we get up's and down's, but it doesn't mean we shouldn't stop trying. A historian -who's name I do not recall right now and my art history teacher would murder me for this if she knew- once said that history is a spiral; civilization goes up and up and up, it climaxes and then it goes down, and down and further down until it hits the ground, but then it picks up again and so on. The consequences? You learn (hopefully) and you grow, you get yourself back up and you give another step in life, to another chapter of your life. We will try not to fall, but we need to fall in order to grow and change, but these fall's are only worth when you actually fall hard, real hard.

Life will never take something away from your grasp just-because, it is merely because there is a better opportunity for you, something better awaiting. It's like I say: "Nothing can go wrong, it can only get better."

With every fall there is a success. And we shall use our past only as reference, but never carry it with us, it'll crush us in the future. "If can't accept our past then we can't live our present, and if we can't live our present then we have no further future... or simply nor aware of the future" -Meg.


When all else seems like it failed, don't loose hope... there's always light, even the size of the farthest star that you can see, but there's light.

That's independence... from my point of view.

P.S. I am proud to be half American and half Mexican. Happy 4th of July "...land of the free"
