no please! at all, is my anniversary of 4 years living in U.S.A., by my self.
Last time my mother ask me when i was going to have at least a boyfriend, that it was a good time to get married.
I said to her that .... but I grrr...
whatever... my mom said that i should make a list with the qualities and aspects that i want to find in my future "man" (one: to be smart, two: to be funny, tres: to be etc...) and pray to God to find me that man! she said, con una chimistretas!!
While reading a great book, i found a letter that Gandhi's wife, Kasturbai, did as a homage to him.
(this is the kind of letter i want to write to my future... )
She paid Gandhi the following tribute:
I thank you for having had the privilege of been your lifelong companion and helpmate. I thank you for the most perfect marriage in the world, based on brahmacharya (self-control) and not on sex.
I thank you for having considered me your equal in your life work for India. I thank you for not being one of those husbands who spend their time in gambling, racing, women, wine, and song, tiring of their wives and children as the little boy quickly tires of this childhood toys. How thankful I am that you were not one of those husbands who devote their time to growing rich on the exploitation of the labor of others.
How thankful I am that you put God and country before bribes, that you had the courage of your convictions and a complete and implicit faith in God. How thankful I am for a husband who put God and his country before me.
I am grateful to you for your tolerance of me and my shortcomings of youth, when I grumbled and rebelled against the change you made in our mode of living, from so much to so little.
As the years and you became India's most beloved leader, I had none of the fears that beset the wife who may be cast aside when her husband has climbed the ladder of success, as so often happens in other countries. I knew that death would still find us husband and wife.
in spanish:
Kasturbai le rindió a su esposo Gandhi el siguiente tributo:
Te agradezco el haber tenido el privilegio de ser tu compañera en la vida.
Te doy las gracias por el más perfecto matrimonio en el mundo, basado en Brahmacharya (autocontrol) y no en el sexo, Te agradesco por haberme considerado tu igual en tu labor en favor de la India. Te doy las gracias por no haber sido uno de esos miles de esposos que emplean la mayor parte de su tiempo jugando, en las carreras de caballos, con mujeres, vino y canciones o en las nimiedades de la vida, cansándose de sus esposas e hijos como el niño se cansa pronto de sus juguetes. !Cuán agradecida estoy de que no hayas sido uno de esos esposos que consagran su tiempo a hacerse ricos con la explotación del trabajo de otros!
!Qué agradecida estoy de que hayas antepuesto a Dios y al País frente al soborno, de que tuvieras el valor de tus convicciones y una fe completa e implícita en Dios!
!Qué agradecida estoy de un esposo que ha puesto a Dios y a su país antes que a mí!
Te estoy agradecida por tu tolerancia conmigo ante mis faltas de juventud, cuando refunfuñaba y me rebelaba contra el cambio que habías hecho en nuestro modo de vivir, de tanto a tan poco.
A medida que pasaron los años y te convertiste en el líder más amado de la India, yo no tuve ninguno de los temores que acosan a la esposa puesta a un lado cuando su maridoha subido a las laderas del éxito, como a menudo ocurre en otros países.
Yo sabía que la muerte nos encontraría como esposo y esposa.
Unique eh?
I also need to keep cultivating my self i order in can achieve a higher state of mind and attract that kind of partner.
