family and friends, part two





my mom, sibilings and I went to Los Fuertes to spend the day. it was a lovely evening with bright sun and candid smiles. we would walk with Codito and drink cold cider, there was a small lake with ducks and pedal boats you could get into, and later we went to a restaurant for dinner and it was all bliss. 

I've come to realize that ironically, distance makes us closer to the people we love. when I am with certain people or places for too long it all becomes dull, I begin to focus on the negative aspects and forget the virtues. I have always been a lonely person, I enjoy the time with myself and I don't need others to be content, which is both a good and a bad thing. this means that if I am with someone it is because I honestly enjoy being with them, I love deep conversations and getting to know what is in other people's heads, but being away lets me appreciate them more. us humans are such curious creatures, aren't we?

my love was giving a conference about multicultural cuisine in a few weeks, so he was preparing his presentation with the help of Vico, but after a couple hours of working we would just be lazy and fool around at Vico's. I love his home, it's so full of stories and real, every single wall is painted/written on by different people, including us. so many things have happened here, I have laughed, cried, yelled and loved there. it is a quiet and lonely, yet loudly and comforting place. I believe raw honesty is always better than esthetic beauty, and this is the best example of it.
