Funny. I said I was not going to celebrate, but the thirties come strong. Friends are strong too, thankfully. It was great to see great friends and family and also to receive all the text messages, phone calls, flowers, cards and gifts.

The ten musketeers
I have this group of ten girlfriends who get together for dinner once a month. We came from several groups and each one knew someone else from somewhere different. Roberta F. went to school with me. Roberta M. and Mariana worked with me during the internet boom. Gisele, Flops and Sabrina worked with me in an advertising agency. Flay and Vanessa were long time friends with Roberta M. And Carol was a friend of Flay since childhood.
It sounds like kindergarden talk, but each one has an extremely important role in the lives of all the other nine. And, if there's something I can assure you, is that any of the ten would happily get out of bed at 4am to take care of any other one. It's an honor to be part of that group.
And, when we get together, we have all sorts of conversations - we don't talk only about men, as some may think. ;)
The face behind the glass belongs to Flops.

To new beginnings
Lunch with the girls, to celebrate endings and new beginnings.
After a very long conversation with my boss, I took one day off work to prepare for what's coming. I'm looking at two months of very hard work to wrap it all up the best way I can.
Then, I'm packing and leaving. It's all said and arranged, almost official.

Finding a way to an end
This is the Virgin of Guadalupe, to whom I pray when I feel like praying - and she never disappoints me. This version was painted on my favorite scarf by my mom.
Today I'm praying so she'll help me to find a way to end a story that has been going for long enough. And I want to do it the right way, without hurting anyone and without hurting myself.
As I said before, I like things that end before going bad and I really believe that endings are very important, so new beginning can come.

A bridge with no end
I made this picture from the Rio NiterĂ³i bridge when Bel and Edu took me to an amazing restaurant at the other side. It made me remember the last time i had been on this bridge. I was small, maybe 7 or 8, and I thought that this bridge was so long that it didn't have an end. I was scared of something that goes on forever.
Some people are afraid of endings. I am not. I like things with beginnings, middles and, very important, endings. I believe that some things have to end so new, good things, will find space to happen.
