Thanksgiving day

I had the opportunity to celebrate Thanksgiving day many years ago in the States. It dates back in 1621, when the Plymouth colonists and Wampanoag Native Americans shared an autumn harvest feast that is acknowledged today as one of the first Thanksgiving celebrations in the colonies.

Nowadays, it is the perfect occasion for families to sit together have a nice dinner. But, it gives us the occasion to be thankful for all the wonderful things that have happened throughout the year. This year has been bumpy and long but despite that and because of that there are many reasons to be grateful and many people to give thanks to. Beloved ones are safe (maybe a bit bored… but safe) and busy. Plenty of opportunities and new adventures have challenged myself and my inner circle, important reconnections were made… It might not look like a lot, but it is, specially this year.

Finally, let me be grateful to (hope not to miss anyone) Ervy, Josep, Anna, Enric, Pablo, Marc, Luis, David, Ana, Javi, Manu, Maria, Esther, German, Nuno, Nuri, Elena, Susana, Fernando, Esteban, Natalia, Antonia, Maria, Montserrat, Josep, Albert, Sonia, Joan, Montse, Jordi, Adria, MCarme, Marta, Paquita, Daniel, Eric, Eli, Marie, Eve, David, Mariano, Manuel, Carmelo, Antonio, Ignacio for having played an important role in this year’s adventure (no matter how :-))

Wolf, sheep and cabbage game

There is this mind game. There is a farmer that visits a market and buys a wolf, a sheep and a cabbage. On his way back home, he needs to cross a river. On the boat he can only carry himself one of them to the far bank of the river, so here is the thing. How will he make it? f left unattended together, the wolf would eat the goat, or the goat would eat the cabbage.

Sometimes we feel like facing unsolvable issues. But is nothing else than a matter of time and patience. We have tones of problems, tricky decisions, … we lack of patience and time to dedicate to them.

Well, in the end some things can only turn into a mind game. Find the time, let patience help you.

A new playlist: bottling pieces of life

Spotify is one of those magic apps that allow you to «bottle» thousands of songs, and label them so they can be easy to identify when ready for consumption.

My reason for creating new ones is mainly getting tired of listening to the same songs (use almost the same type of music regardless of the activity I am doing: Sport, waitings, isolating from noise..). So, you can find quite interesting mix of songs in these playlists, as they can bring many different memories or just be a cool song your friend recommended. Anyway… a present for you (and why I have listed them!):

Don’t you know anyone who thinks that everything is about him/herself? That talk, that meeting, that.. you’re so vain (also, it transports me several years back)
The ones I learned about from a friend years ago. Saudade. this is the last time
Reminder of those who never ever, surrender as well an eternal energy boost no surrender
When we miss being back «home». Castle on the hill
The new family member, hey Marc! (not yet, but close) can you feel the love tonight
And a beautiful duet.. Don’t let the sun go down…
He left us this year, powerful, back to university days, good for when I can not run that last mile… Shut’Em Up
Super good vibes, nice time, better people, awesome company, new experiences. Take it easy
Work hard, play hard. Sunflower
Silly traffic jam time, seen someone singing in the car next to yours? Come on, join the there is nothing I can do club! What makes you beautiful
When it’s time to go, no turning back. Si un dia he de tornar
I wrote about when magic happens. It did in their concert. Lucky me to have been able to share it with a good friend. I don’t want a lover
What was your last one of … Bad decisions
Those short but intense visits to Madrid. Pride. All the lovers
Yep, why to suffer? ok, I won’t stop running until this one ends.Self esteem

Yes, this could be my next (varied) playlist. It’s only missing the label. Summer recap could work.

Enjoy friends, family and life. Don’t take things too serious. Build your own works for «almost» any occasion playlist. It cheers you up.
