One Amazing Thing I've Done
25 days Camping trip in National Park Chapada Diamantina - wild camping 25 days no eletricity, no city, no internet. we rented a bus to travel 2 weeks across Brasil with 50 friends. I wrote a poem book when I was 14 years old. I did first aid procedures after a car accident (2 times) I studied how to handle venomous and poisonous animals. Hear the voice of silence!!! It was an incredible experience I've lived per 5 days steeped in my 5 senses, I didn't hear any sounds produced by human beings, other than being blindfolded, and thus plunged into darkness, and I also didn't speak any words or produce any vocal sounds, which turned my focus back to a voyage of discovery for myself. To log off from all social media for 10 months. I have already been celibate for 15 months. After 3 years without seeing my parents, brothers and nephews, I arrived by surprise for Christmas.
Teach, Learn, Share
A can teach you dances like Samba, Forró, Arrocha. 💃🕺 I have a lot of cooperative board games. 🎲 I can teach you how to wash hands, the best way to cure your hangover, and poop in the right way (scientifically verified). Believe me, so many people don't know how to do it - LOL! 🧼🤢💩 I dare you to learn to dance samba in 5 minutes. (I'm not kidding, I can teach you in 5 minutes how to dance the samba) 💃⏱️ Not always the answer is ready. ❓ There is beauty in doubt; it is worth appreciating. Forging the answer ahead of time is the same as harvesting unripe fruit. 🍏🍎 Maybe that's why some judge the wisdom in my words... Take in doubt... I often discover the wisdom that insists on hiding in the absence of words. 🤔🔒🗣️ We are compelled to give answers to everything and talk because we do not support the lack of answers. Silence becomes uncomfortable and does not even support hearing the beating of our heart. The distressing silence does not allow us to hear the silent voice. Sometimes I prefer to let the doubt linger rather than give you ready answers. Living with creative doubt is a wisdom that we should exercise. 🤫🤔💡 But who knows me knows I'm a simple person, someone who lets questions touch and tries to enjoy the charm of the absence of words. The kind that lets the night throw its cloak over doubt, warming it like the sun. It often gives answers in ways that make us smile. There is a time for everything, and I try to live every single situation. No one can bathe in the same water two or more times. 🌙🤲💭 Life sometimes is only possible in questioning silence. I'm happy! I like to be... But the kind of happiness that breaks paradigms, the kind that has gestures that help us rebuild lives, shorten distances, promote diets, decrease sadness... shared happiness. Discovering that sharing the happy moment is a way to multiply it and make it eternal. 😊🌈 Realizing that superior beauties insist on hiding in smaller, unattractive beauties. Happiness often goes unnoticed. Unexpected reunions, gifts that we receive without reason, without special celebrations or dates. Small gestures that make a difference in the sum of all. A life that is celebrated just for celebrating, just for recognizing what is unique, unrepeatable, and singular in it. 🎁🌺 In some ways, I don't have any predictions for my life. For me, it doesn't matter if Saturn is in line with Jupiter or if the cards have revealed hidden truths about anyone. What I do know is that life continues to dawn, with or without foresight. The unexpected is still the most vivid half of life. 🌅🔮 The poet said that "sadness has no end, happiness does!" Was he right? I do not know. What I know is that this immense trade market in which life has become has found temporary illusions being sold as if they were long-lasting happiness. And who said that temporary happiness has no value? 🤷♂️😔😃 Being happy is dreaming and making the dream happen, and that requires dedication and trust. There are those who say no, they prefer to believe in the magic formulas that contemporary literature offers, promising a series of happiness that, according to those who produce it, can be conquered with the application of the recipes they offer I still don't believe in all of this... I still prefer to see life and the new possibilities as a mysterious ball to let go of in my hands. In the gesture of letting it fall, two perspectives remain: the care to hold the tip so that it doesn't slip from our grasp, and the freedom for it to unfold according to its movement. Therein lies the beauty. 🌟🔮 We plan dreams, make sacrifices, and reduce the superfluous. When someone asks me, "What is happiness for you?" it comes to my mind when I find a note on the fridge, an unexpected meeting, a message from a friend I haven't seen in a while, a shared smile with someone who says, "I'm happy to meet you," a phone call from someone I've been missing. All of this makes me smile... I want to live, sing corny music, embarrass myself in public, and say, "I love you." ❤️🎶 Time is free but it's priceless. ⏰ You can't own it, but you can use it. You can't keep it, but you can spend it. And once it's lost, you can never get it back. ⌛ The average person lives for 78 years. We spend 28.3 years of our life sleeping. That's almost a third of our life, but 30% of us struggle to sleep well. We spend 10.5 years of our life working, but over 50% of us want to leave our current jobs. Time is more valuable than money. You can get more money, but you can never get more time. We spend 9 years on TV and social media. We spend 6 years doing chores. We spend 4 years eating and drinking. We spend 3.5 years in education. We spend 2.5 years grooming. We spend 2.5 years shopping. We spend 1.5 years in childcare, and we spend 1.3 years commuting. 🕰️💤💼📚🛁🛍️🚗 That leaves us with 9 years. How will we spend that time? Steve Jobs said, "Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life." So, here's the good news and the bad news. The bad news is time flies, and the good news is you're the pilot. ✈️⏳ Imagine waking up every day with $86,400 in your bank account, and at the end of the night, it's all gone, whether you spent it or not. And then the next day, you get another $86,400. What would you do with it? Every day, 86,400 seconds are added to your life account. At the end of the day, once they're all used up, you get a new 86,400 seconds. We would never waste it if it were money. So why do we waste it when it comes to time? Those seconds are so much more powerful than dollars because you can always make more dollars, but you can't always make more time. 💸⌛ To realize the value of 1 year, ask a student who failed a grade. To realize the value of 1 month, ask a mother who lost her child in the final month. To realize the value of 1 week, ask the editor of an online magazine. To realize the value of 1 hour, ask the couple who is in a long-distance relationship. To realize the value of 1 minute, ask the person who just missed a bus, a train, or a plane. To realize the value of 1 second, ask a person who just missed an accident, and to realize the value of 1 millisecond, ask the person who just came 2nd at the Olympics. ⏱️🥇🚀 We often think that it's others who waste our time, but in reality, we are the ones giving them permission to do so. Inside all of us are two voices: one that wants to uplift, expand, and help us grow, and the other that holds us back, makes us lazy, and restricts us from reaching our potential. Every day, from the moment we wake up to the moment we go to sleep, there's a battle between these two voices. And guess which one wins? The one that we listen to the most, the one that we feed and amplify. It is our choice of how we waste our time, and it is our choice of how we use our time. ⏳🗣️🚦 Life and time are the best two teachers. Life teaches us to make good use of time, and time teaches us the value of life. As William Shakespeare said, "Time is very slow for those who wait, very fast for those who are scared, very long for those who are sad, and very short for those who celebrate. But for those who love, time is eternal." ⏰❤️🌌 The greatest gift you can give someone is your time because when you give your time, you are giving a portion of your life that you will never get back. Cherish every moment, make the most of every second, and use your time to create meaningful experiences and connections. Remember, time flies, but as the pilot of your life, you have the power to navigate its course. 🎁⌛✨ So, seize each day as an opportunity to make memories, pursue your dreams, and share moments of joy with the people who matter most to you. Embrace the present and live fully in the now, for that is where life truly unfolds. 🌟🌈😊 As you embark on this journey of time, remember that it's not about the quantity of time you have, but rather the quality of moments you create. Take the time to appreciate the small things—a gentle breeze, a heartfelt conversation, a breathtaking sunset—because it is in these seemingly insignificant moments that the magic of life resides. ✨🌿🌅 Let go of the worries about the future and the regrets of the past. Embrace the present moment with gratitude and enthusiasm. Embrace the people who bring joy to your life and cherish the experiences that shape you. Make every second count and infuse it with love, passion, and purpose. ⏳❤️🔥 Remember that time is a gift, and how you choose to spend it is entirely up to you. Don't waste it on things that don't truly matter or on relationships that don't nourish your soul. Surround yourself with positivity, embrace growth and learning, and make conscious decisions that align with your values and aspirations. 🎁🌱💪 And when you find yourself facing challenges or setbacks, remember that time has the power to heal, transform, and bring new opportunities. Embrace those moments of growth and resilience, for they shape you into a stronger, wiser individual. Embrace the lessons that time teaches you and let them guide you towards a brighter future. ⏰🌟🌻 So, my friend, as you navigate the journey of life, always remember that time is both fleeting and precious. Use it wisely, savor it fully, and make it a vessel for love, happiness, and personal growth. Embrace the role of the pilot in your own life and soar fearlessly towards a future filled with fulfillment and purpose. ✈️❤️🌌 May your days be filled with moments that make you smile, memories that warm your heart, and a deep appreciation for the gift of time. Embrace each passing second with gratitude, for it is through the tapestry of time that the beauty of your life unfolds. 🌼⏳😊 Remember, time is not meant to be measured solely by clocks and calendars. It is the moments that truly define its worth. Take a pause to enjoy the simple pleasures, like the warmth of a hug, the laughter of a loved one, or the beauty of nature surrounding you. These moments hold the power to transcend time and create lasting memories. 🌸🌿🌞 In this fast-paced world, it's important to find a balance between productivity and self-care. Prioritize activities that bring you joy and nourish your well-being. Whether it's pursuing a hobby, spending quality time with family and friends, or engaging in activities that ignite your passion, these are the moments that enrich your life. 🎨🌻🌈 Embrace the concept of mindfulness and being present in the here and now. Instead of constantly rushing towards the next thing, take a breath and appreciate the beauty of the present moment. Notice the details, the sensations, and the emotions that arise. This practice allows you to fully immerse yourself in the richness of life's experiences. 🧘♀️🌟🌺 As time passes, don't forget to invest in yourself. Set aside moments for self-reflection, personal growth, and nurturing your dreams. Take the necessary steps to make them a reality. Believe in your potential, trust in your abilities, and take inspired action towards your aspirations. Time is on your side when you align your actions with your deepest desires. 💫💪🌱 Lastly, remember that time is best spent when it is shared with others. Cultivate meaningful connections, foster relationships, and spread kindness wherever you go. The love and support you give to others will ripple through time, leaving a lasting impact on their lives. Together, we can create a world where time is not only valued but also used to make a positive difference. 🤝❤️🌍 So, my friend, as you journey through the tapestry of time, embrace its preciousness, live in the present, and cherish the moments that make up your story. Your time is a gift, and how you choose to embrace it will shape the legacy you leave behind. Embrace each day with gratitude, curiosity, and a heart filled with love. The world awaits your unique contribution. ⏳❤️🌎 In the grand tapestry of time, remember that every moment holds the potential for growth and transformation. Embrace the challenges that come your way, for they serve as opportunities for learning and personal development. Don't be afraid to step out of your comfort zone and explore new horizons. The beauty of life lies in its ever-changing nature. 🌌🌱🌟 As you navigate the chapters of your life, remember to celebrate your accomplishments, no matter how big or small. Take pride in your achievements and acknowledge the progress you've made. Each step forward is a testament to your resilience and determination. Let the joy of your successes fuel your drive to reach even greater heights. 🎉🏆🚀 Amidst the busyness of life, carve out moments of stillness and reflection. Allow yourself to recharge, reconnect with your inner self, and find clarity amidst the noise. In these quiet moments, you'll discover insights, solutions, and the wisdom that resides within you. 🧘♂️🌿🌄 Remember, time is not meant to be hoarded or feared; it is meant to be experienced and shared. Extend acts of kindness, lend a listening ear, and be present for those around you. The connections you cultivate and the love you give will ripple through time, creating a legacy of compassion and impact. 🤗❤️🌻 As you look back on your life, let it be filled with memories that bring warmth to your heart. Seek adventures, embrace spontaneity, and treasure the laughter shared with loved ones. Fill your days with experiences that ignite your soul and leave you with stories to tell. Life is meant to be lived to the fullest. 🌈🌍🌺 In the grand tapestry of time, you are both a participant and a creator. Embrace the preciousness of each passing moment, for they form the fabric of your unique journey. Embody gratitude, courage, and authenticity as you dance through the rhythms of life. Embrace the beauty of time, for it is your canvas to paint upon. 🎨⏰✨ So, my friend, as you continue on your path, may you find fulfillment, joy, and purpose in every step. Embrace the gift of time and let it guide you towards a life that is rich with experiences and meaningful connections. The possibilities are endless, and your journey is yours to shape.
