Hi Hivers! 💚
Hola Hivers! 💚
Today I have been reflecting on some things that have happened in my life recently: Changes. Changes of those that destabilize a little, in this case, emotionally. But these are definitely good experiences, because knowing different people who come and go, I have been able to learn a lot. This has happened to me a lot and in a very intense way since I left my native country. During this experience, I have had to move house several times, I have had several jobs, and I have met many people of different nationalities and cultures. It has been fun, interesting, enriching but I cannot say that I have made many friends.
Hoy he estado reflexionando sobre algunas cosas que han ocurrido en mi vida recientemente: Cambios. Cambios de esos que desestabilizan un poco, en este caso, emocionalmente. Pero definitivamente se trata de buenas experiencias, porque conociendo distintas personas que vienen y van, he podido aprender mucho. Esto me ha pasado bastante y de manera muy intensa desde que me fui de mi paÃs natal. Durante esta experiencia, me he tenido que mudar de casa varias veces, he tenido varios trabajos, y he conocido a muchas personas de distintas nacionalidades y culturas. Ha sido divertido, interesante, enriquecedor pero no puedo decir que haya hecho muchos amigos.
It gives me the feeling that when migrating, the movement of people, places and experiences increases considerably. Migrants do not feel rooted anywhere, that makes us develop a certain detachment towards people and things. We are traveling, we are moving, we are constantly changing, so we know that many of the relationships that we establish with others may not continue to be in the near future. This has made me learn to value the here and now more, to enjoy and be present in every moment, and in every bit of time that I share with those people who become important to me. Now I value all this much more than when I was in my country, living in my grandmother's house, being able to always have my lifelong family and friends close by.
Me da la sensación de que al migrar, el vaivén de personas, lugares y experiencias, aumenta considerablemente. Los migrantes no nos sentimos arraigados en ningún sitio, eso nos hace desarrollar cierto desapego hacia personas y cosas. Vamos viajando, nos vamos moviendo, estamos en constante cambio, asà que sabemos que muchas de las relaciones que entablamos con los demás, puden no seguir siendo en un futuro próximo. Esto me ha hecho aprender a valorar más el aquà y el ahora, a disfrutar y estar presente en cada momento, y en cada pedacito de tiempo que comparto con esas personas que se vuelven importantes para mÃ. Ahora valoro todo esto mucho más que cuando estaba en mi paÃs, viviendo en la casa de mi abuela, pudiendo tener siempre cerca a mis familiares y amigos de toda la vida.
Before, it made me sad if someone I loved, whom I considered a friend, had to leave or just walked away. Now I understand that when someone leaves, I do not lose anything, they do not take a part of me, what they take is the memory of who I was while we were able to share and the good times we spent together, I also stay with the nice memories and what I learned thanks to that person. Even if there is a goodbye, if that person was important, that relationship will have made me grow, so in the end it will always be a good thing. In addition, although we have to move away to undertake new trips, these friendships do not necessarily end here, there is also the possibility that they evolve with us and become stronger, proof of the distance and the changes that each one experiences, and both possibilities are more than good.
Antes me ponÃa triste si alguien a quien querÃa, a quien consideraba un amigo, se tenÃa que ir o simplemente se alejaba. Ahora entiendo que cuando alguien se va, yo no pierdo nada, no se lleva una parte de mÃ, lo que se lleva es el recuerdo de quien yo era mientras pudimos compartir y de los buenos momentos que pasamos juntos, yo también me quedo con los lindos recuerdos y lo que aprendà gracias a esa persona. Aunque haya despedida, si esa persona fue importante, esa relación me habrá hecho crecer, asà que al final siempre será algo bueno. Además aunque nos tengamos que alejar para emprender nuevos viajes, estas amistades no necesariamente terminan aquÃ, también existe la posibilidad de que evolucionen con nosotros y se hagan más fuertes, a prueba de la distancia y los cambios que experimente cada quién, y ambas posibilidades están más que bien.
Perhaps with all this I am learning to maintain a balance in attachment, to remove the fear of changes and to get to know people without fear of rejection or the loss of a friendship.
Quizás con todo esto estoy aprendiendo a mantener un equilibro en el apego, a quitarme el miedo a los cambios y a llegar a conocer a las personas sin temerle al rechazo o la pérdida de una amistad.
