PHILOSOPHY

The most important is to achieve what we really need and discover that maybe ins´t what we wanted or dreamed of.

Sometimes things don´t have a purpose.

I´ve Learned by experience that each day we´re closer to the end. We don´t Know if it is close or far from us... So I´m always concerned about the future but I always live intensily as well. I don´t keep words to say to those I love . I just don´t know how many days or years we have together.
