A Sad Story, but Inspirational...

What would you tell the world if you only had a few months to live?

Randy Pausch has a moving and poignant tale to tell:



Once a shaman told me, "The secret to life is to live it!"

It's All About Closure!!

This funny video was sent to me by an amazing Bravo named Angel.

In recent conversations with friends, we've been discussing closure with past loves so we can move on. Sometimes I really wonder about the motives behind doing such a thing. Sarah Silverman (definite Brava) shows some interesting insight on this theme:



It's funny how the men in my life (my dad and friend Angel) are the ones who've taught me the most about empowerment!

Que vivan los Bravos!!

Gaping the Void

I really love this cartoon:



It is fresh and offers an interesting perspective on life and relationships. Sometimes it is very cynical, but I still love it!!

Hugh MacLeod, who comes up with these themes is definitely a Bravo!!

Happy Anniversary to La Brava and Her Bravo!

Let me tell you, staying happily married is definitely a Brava de la Pelicula role! My friends Gema and Eddie got hitched back in 1976 and are going strong. They are the epitome of partnership, mutual support and growth!!

Even if I have failed at the life long union, I believe there is still hope! I believe in that one true love that endures all and surpasses all odds. At this day and age it is not only romantic, but HEROIC!!

Hurray for LOVE!!
