One virtuous woman or man, led by the Spirit can change the world!


Idaho Falls, 24th of January of 2010.

In Relief Society today we studied about VIRTUES which for myself i have been thinking about this subject during the past week and this topic just came in the right moment of my life. So, some of the quotes and information i decided to save and post in my blog are information that i feel very strong in my life and that i live by and makes me so happy to know that i focus strongly on my path and my personality traits that come from having wonderful parents that thought me well and with love and togetherness forever! I miss both of them right now, but our hearts are always together and their love and life living always by their example. I love you mom and dad! You are the best!

Always Set the foundation and make the difference in our society.

Promote Virtue
at Home or in Public

Stand tall and be firmly fixed in perpetuating Christlike virtues.

Teach the kids by example

Cultivate our values and traits

Cultivate like a garden and let the butterflies come to it

When I say I am going to do it I do it!

I remember the example of the mattress. I had a mattress that was given to me by a friend and when i was moving from Seattle i remember another friend of mine that was in need of a mattress so, i made my mind that i was going to take it to her. My friends thought that i was crazy to do all this work for my friend and that i should let her come and get the mattress, let her rent a truck, spend the money, if she wanted the mattress and if she did not want to pick it up, i was supposed to just announce a craigslist or throw it in the garbage(that's what my friends told me, i should do).
In my mind, i was like, NO, I Priscila, will take to my friend and it didn't matter how i was going to deliver to her house as I said so and wanted to do so.I keep my words that i live by and i do it.

So, the day that i was going to deliver the mattress I rented a U haul truck, i myself put the mattress in the back of the truck and deliver the mattress to my friend. She was so happy and now she has a bed to sleep on.

Those friends that said that to me where no where to find that day, which also thought me a lesson about them. I just know that "One virtuous woman, led by the Spirit can change the world!"


Family comes first and stick together

Always comes first and always stick together no matter what. That shows how strong your love for your family is. To find a partner that thinks the same on this and we both can grow stronger everyday, it always reminds me of my parents. Their love and togetherness has grown into me as i saw their lives growing everyday as a couple and as a family.

I love togetherness

Happy New Year! Feliz Ano Novo!

"O tempo é algo que não volta atrás.
Por isso plante seu jardim e decore sua alma,
Ao invés de esperar que alguém lhe traga flores"

With family

Curitiba, 07 de dezembro de 200

O homem que venceu na vida foi aquele que viveu bem, riu muitas vezes e amou muito; que conquistou o respeito de homens inteligentes e o amor das crianças; que preencheu um lugar e cumpriu uma missão; que deixou o mundo melhor do que encontrou, seja com uma flor, um poema perfeito ou o salvamento de uma alma; que procurou o melhor nos outros e deu o melhor de si.


Persiga um sonho, mas não deixe ele viver sozinho.
Descubra-se todos os dias, deixe-se levar pelas vontades, mas não enlouqueça por elas.
Procure, sempre procure o fim de uma história, seja ela qual for.
Dê um sorriso para quem esqueceu como se faz isso.
Acelere seus pensamentos, mas não permita que eles te consumam.
Olhe para o lado, alguém precisa de você.
Abasteça seu coração de fé, não a perca nunca.
Mergulhe de cabeça nos seus desejos e satisfaça-os.
Procure os seus caminhos, mas não magoe ninguém nessa procura.
Arrependa-se, volte atrás, peça perdão!
Não se acostume com o que não o faz feliz, revolte-se quando julgar necessário.
Alague seu coração de esperanças, mas não deixe que ele se afogue nelas.
Se achar que precisa voltar, volte!
Se perceber que precisa seguir, siga!
Se estiver tudo errado, comece novamente.
Se estiver tudo certo, continue.
Se sentir saudades, mate-a.
Se perder um amor, não se perca!
Se achá-lo, segure-o!

(Fernando Pessoa)

Peaceful Place in Mind


Tomorrow we leave Peru', so these words are also our farewell, in which I would like to remark how grateful I am to the people of this country who have generously looked after us again and again.

Even though we are too insignificant to be spokesmen for such a noble cause, we beleive, and this journey has only confirmed this belief, that the division of America into unstable and illusory nations in a complete fiction.
We are one single mestizo race from Mexico to the Magellan Straits and so, in an attempt to free ourselves from narrow minded provincialism I propose a toast to PEru' and to United America.

Nao so falou mais fez, Nadando across the river.

-enthusiasm
-dedication
-apreciation


I think you will find something important there for each of you.

You gotta fight for every health and tell death to go to hell.

This river it segregates the ill from the healthy.
=community help
=build together
=group
=joining together


The Hight Road is often not the easiest road, but it is the only one that leads to the highest of living.

We go to a higher level when we treat others betther than they treat us.

"A genuine friend encourages and challenges us to live out our best thoughts, honor our purest motives and achieve our most significant dreams!"





I am going to spend my birthday in the other side of the river.
How many times did we think we wouln't make it?
And look, here we are because I won't be there to help you. You will always be there to help me.
The river is very strong, the current is even stronger. Swimming torward us. You can do it, Ernesto! Just a bit more. He made it!
Make an impact in the lives of other people and at the same time yours.

She got better after the blessing!


Idaho Falls 14th, 2009.

Went to Jackson Hole, Wyoming on monday with the girls and Jenny. It was so much fun! Beautiful landscape.
Today hang out with Jelair and her beautiful kids. When arriving back at home, Shara was here, not feeling well. I guess she got the flu also. She is taking Temaflu in case the flu may be the swine flu. Hope it is not. She was felling terrible,but now a little better. She told me that she was felling terrible at her house before granpa and grandma arrived there to pick her up and right away grandpa gave her a blessing and after 2 minutes her pain went away. She felt better from the pain. She still has the sintoms but the pain in her muscles had gone away.
