Serenata 2 Hey guys! Something funny happened to me the other day; I was checking Instagram and one of the bloggers I haven't met yet (we follow each other but we haven's seen each other in person yet) was talking about how she would love if her summers could last forever and have some eternity in them. You know? The thing I've been saying for a long time now (and the blog's theme for this month).

Shortly after that, a day or two later, one friend from Italy and I were chatting and he said that it's been raining in his city and, although it isn't technically over yet, he already misses summer. It's very strange how the collective unconscious (a term coined by Carl Jung, referring to structures of the unconscious mind shared among beings of the same species) really happens; how many people around the world may be thinking or feeling the same things as you... That's beautiful.

Stuff like that makes me feel a bit less alone, it's like an unconscious serenade; someone expresses something and that makes you feel another thing and; it wasn't on purpose or direct, it just happens that way. So, for all of you out there longing for an eternal summer like us, think about more than weather or holidays, ponder the experiences and moments you lived and turn those memories into something eternal.

// ¡Hey amigos! Algo chistoso me pasó el otro día; estaba viendo Instagram y una de las bloggers que aún no conozco (ambos nos seguimos pero no nos hemos conocido aún) estaba hablando sobre cómo le encantaría que sus veranos pudieran durar para siempre y tener un poco de eternidad en ellos. ¿Ya saben? La cosa que yo he estado diciendo por mucho tiempo (y que es el tema del mes en el blog).

Poquito después, uno o dos días más tarde, un amigo de Italia y yo estábamos platicando y él dijo que ha estado lloviendo en su ciudad y, aún cuando técnicamente no se ha acabado, él ya extraña el verano. Es muy extraño como el inconsciente colectivo (un término de Carl Jung que se refiere a las estructuras inconscientes de la mente compartidas entre miembros de la misma especie) realmente sucede; cuánta gente alrededor del mundo puede estar pensando o sintiendo lo mismo que tú... Eso es hermoso.

Cosas así me hacen sentir un poquito menos solo, es como una serenata inconsciente; alguien expresa algo y eso te hace sentir otra cosa y; no fue a propósito o directo, sólo sucede así. Así que, para todos ustedes allá afuera deseando un verano eterno como nosotros, piensen más allá del clima o las vacaciones, ponderen las experiencias y momentos que vivieron y hagan de esas memorias algo eterno.
