Its been a while now since I last posted in this blog.. I remember the day I started it along with the FB page. I was around 23-24 years old and there was too much going on in my head (there still is). I was on my junior year at college and decided it would be a good idea to open up a blog where I could freely share my thoughts and ideas and possibly find similar minds or minds that would wanted to open up and learn from other perspectives.
If you have previously read the blog, or checked out the CBL fb page, you will see it contains articles, thoughts, short films, and some images where most of them lean towards the creation of awareness. This type of awareness involves the self, environment and all of that that surrounds us and either benefits or affects us as a community. It is clear that people make the final decision on their lifestyles, however, there are factors in our lives such as work, money, and other means of survival that makes us forget the real meaning of what life should consist of.
This ideology is not new, there are others who are also trying to emphasize it by other means. Thus, my initiative to create this blog with the purpose of sharing and connecting. Most importantly, respecting other's point of view since as we well know, ideologies may vary depending on background, tradition and culture. This blog is simple tho, some key words to remember are, integrity, respect, love, compassion and being open minded.
There may be some posts that contain graphic information and may be disturbing to some. Sometimes we prefer not to know or see how some processes are done for the sake of our healthy minds. Unfortunately, there are many things out there that we wish we wouldn't know and our lives would be easier. In order for us to create links and build compassion, it is important to be fully informed including the nasty side of things. In my own opinion, someone that is compassionate, is also kind and strong. Building compassion is not an easy thing, it requires the ability to have an open mind that will understand certain connections. Being compassionate does not equal to being soft. A leader who is compassionate is a respectable leader. This leader will not only fight for what is right but will understand the different points of view and will make the final decision on what is best for the community. There are thousands of scientists, politicians and leaders out there that in order to make their voice count, they never used violence. They used reasoning through peaceful means.
I hope you find this page useful and that you find some sense on the different type of information shared in the blog and the FB page. Please feel free to comment and share your own thoughts and ideas.
I cant wait to hear from you and learn from each other!
