I'm lovin it mcdonalds mexico 3 I've always been a bit picky, with food, with people, with everything, haha. In a lot of ways, I like to consider myself as a chill guy, a good friend, a nice-kind person and; I'm sure I've talked about this before, I wasn't always like that. I was bullied a lot as a kid and that harshened me up when I was in middle and high school, it turned me into someone quite mean, mocking people was a daily fun thing to do. Although I changed a lot, grew up and became a better version of who I was, some things from the past still resurface every now and then.

This month is about rebirth and I've had a good amount of moments that have transformed me. I think about how I was very narrow minded and judgemental in the old days and how far I've come. If it weren't for that switch in attitude, I wouldn't have been able to meet so many of my current friends, I would've always stuck with the same clique and, trust me, that's no fun. I've learned how to socialise with all kinds of people, learned to appreciate nuances in personalities and accept different backgrounds, that has created a diverse group of people I call friends... And I'm lovin' it.

But even when I feel like I've made a lot of progress, I've been thinking about this lately, there's a lot of room for improvement. I still judge (I think we all do) but I'm trying to make those judgements mmm, how to say it? Not permanent, not definitive. Life is about understanding that you can't choose and decide everything, some things will just happen and that's okay, I've learned to let go and try to see people for who they are, not for what I think they are. I'm grateful because of it, thanks to that I have so many good memories and, hopefully, I will create more and more moments to remember; from photoshoots, to meals, to silly-fun and deep conversations. Do consider giving your personality a chance to change, give in to rebirth.

// Siempre he sido quisquilloso, con la comida, con la gente, con todo, jaja. En muchas maneras me gusta considerarme como un chavito tranquilo, un buen amigo, una persona amable y; seguro que he hablado de esto antes, no siempre fui así. Cuando era niño me bullearon mucho y eso me endureció cuando estuve en secundaria y preparatoria, me convirtió en alguien malvado, burlarme de la gente era mi diversión diaria. Aunque ya cambié mucho, crecí y me convertí en una versión mejorada de quien era, algunas cosas del pasado aún resurgen de vez en cuando.

Este mes se trata de renacer y que tenido una buena cantidad de momentos que me han transformado. Pienso en cómo era muy cerrado de mente y cómo juzgaba mucho y lo lejos que llegado. Si no hubiera sido por ese cambio en actitud, no hubiera podido conocer a muchos de mis amigos actuales, siempre hubiera quedado estancado con la misma gente y, créanme, no es lo más divertido. He aprendido a socializar con todo tipo de personas, aprendí a apreciar matices en las personalidades y aceptar distintos escenarios, eso ha creado un grupo diverso de gente que llamo amigos... Y me encanta.

Pero aún cuando siento que he progresado mucho, lo he penado mucho últimamente, aún hay mucho qué mejorar. Sigo juzgando (creo que todos lo hacemos) pero estoy tratando de hacer esos juicios menos permanentes, menos definitivos. La vida se trata de entender que no puedes elegir y seleccionar todo, algunas cosas simplemente van a suceder y está bien, he aprendido a dejar ir y tratar de ver a las personas por quiénes son, no por lo que creo que son. Estoy agradecido por eso, gracias a eso tengo muchos buenos recuerdos y, con un poco de suerte, seguiré creando más y más momentos para recordar; desde sesiones de fotos, a comidas, a tontas-divertidas y serias conversaciones. En serio consideren darle a su personalidad una oportunidad de cambiar, anímense a renacer.
