Break Away... A Little Closer to my Babies / Despegarme... Acercándome a mis Bebés


It sure has been a while now. I needed to break away, just a bit. I needed to balance things out. To remember what it´s like to play with my babies and go to sleep at eight pm, leaving stress to others, forgetting what it´s like to be an adult...at least for two weeks. I was drowning in a daily super mom/working girl schedule I had created for myself. I was forgetting to stop and truly enjoy beautiful moments like these:


Ahora sí que ha pasado un rato. Necesitaba despegarme un poco. Necesitaba buscar un equilibrio en mi vida, recordar lo que es jugar con mis chamacos e irme a dormir a las 8pm. Dejarle el estrés a otros, olvidar lo que es ser adulto... por lo menos por dos semanas. Me estaba ahogando en una rutina diaria de super mamá/ mujer emprendedora que había creado para mi misma. Estaba olvidando detenerme a verdaderamente disfrutar hermosos momentos como estos:

Sometimes we have to stop and ask ourselves what we truly want in life. What is truly important? If our heart were to stop beating tomorrow, would we have any regrets? I had to do all this is, and decide to readjust. Something that turned out to be easier than expected, and greatly appreciated by my beautiful children. Now, I somehow feel I have more room to breathe. Smile.

A veces tenemos que parar y preguntarnos, ¿qué es lo que realmente queremos de la vida? ¿Qué es lo que realmente importa? ¿Y sí nuestro corazón dejara de latir mañana, cargaríamos con arrepentimientos? Tuve que hacer todo esto y decidir reajustar..algo que resultó ser más fácil de lo esperado y profundamente agradecido por mis hermosos hijos. Ahora, de alguna manera, siento que tengo más espacio para respirar.

Sonrío.
