I once heard something like "you can be gross or ugly, both are NOT" and although beauty is subjective, intelligence, knowledge and preparation are not, and that is at least noticeable when you engage in a conversation with someone.

In my case, I like to learn, I like to know, to compare, to discriminate; as a good social researcher, I like to read books, to have expectations about certain things, to know different visions because we are not owners of the world or of the absolute truth. This quality, attribute, talent, has helped me to engage in conversations, to understand points of view, to give my opinion on issues, or simply to be informed about what is happening in the world.

I remember once I saw an episode of Sheldon (TBBT) where they wanted to know who knew the most and well, they don't give a final because they all know about everything, but in their field; Penny, to decide "who was the smartest, asked them questions about fashion, TV and artists that they didn't know how to answer. This shows that we can know one thing, maybe not everything, but never anything, there is always something to learn.

Knowledge opens doors, makes us free, makes us more beautiful. We see how now beauty contests are not based on a pretty face but on what you can impact and contribute to society, but that is not done from ignorance or lack of interest to learn and improve, then it is a demonstration that this quality makes you stand out to any audience.

Finally, in a changing, transforming, globalised world, I feel that I have to keep up with these changes and new paradigms, so I never stop learning, preparing myself, and although there are many things that I do not master (such as the English language), at least I learn from AI so that this is not a limitation 😎.

"A smile opens doors" and that really stands out for me because I have a very nice smile that I like to show to everyone, it's living "with my teeth in my mouth" as we would say here in my country.

It's also about smiling with your soul and believe me, you can't do that from one day to the next. I didn't do it before because aesthetically I didn't have an aligned smile. What did I do? Well, instead of hiding, I tried to fix it and today I look very pretty 😁.

At the same time, there were many situations that made me insecure, upset, unhappy, sad, always on the defensive. What did I do? I also worked on my self-esteem, my love, acceptance, understanding my internal and external limitations as well as working on my potential.

All this helped me to smile with my soul, to greet with my smile, to smile in the face of adversity, to not turn off my smile because it bothers others and this helps me to be optimistic, resilient, communicative, positive and although, as I said, I did not do this overnight, today I feel very sure of myself, Wherever I arrive I can leave a mark because "triumphant" with joy, as well as when I say goodbye, when I talk to someone I do it from the positive language and although there are situations that take me to the dark end of my being, I always try to find the light and the teaching that it leaves me and that is also chrism. I hope to be remembered for that quality for a long time.

I often hear that "values have been lost" but I have a completely different opinion, because the reality is that we do not put them into practice. But, in order to do so, we must know about them and know how to put them into practice. For example, I cannot have responsibility as a value without putting it into practice or thinking about changing my life around them. I must first recognise what I lack and then practice that value to eradicate the negative behaviours in my life.

One main value I like to emphasise is loyalty; ever since I learned about the lie of a person who was supposed to be an example to me, I have liked to be honest and transparent and that is loyalty to my principles, value and doing good. A lie as small as an excuse not to go somewhere (they even kill grandma) when it is so easy to say no, it seems to me that it doesn't end well and they will always have a bigger and bigger lie, which doesn't make you a trustworthy person, a loyal person.

I'm not saying that we change with time, what in my adolescence I saw friendship as the greatest value, today I focus on being loyal, responsible, honest, tolerant, polite, respectful, and that helps me to get good and great friendships, do you see how important it is to have values in life?

I am not perfect and although I still need to put into practice values like kindness or patience, I am still working on them to write them down among my qualities 😎.
