Lecturas que han marcado mi visión como escritora y voraz lectora .
En enero, durante diez días compartí diez portadas de libros de autores en mi FB. Autores, que han marcado mi lecturas y visión como escritora.
Hay muchos, pero he decidido mostrar algunos de los que rara vez hablo y son imprescindibles en mi biblioteca personal. Siempre es fascinante intercambiar esas lecturas o libros únicos y esenciales con otros lectores. Leer para mí sigue siendo un excelente refugio y una fuente infinita de sabiduría.

Cuídense mucho de esta pandemia que no se quiere ir ,
Abrazos de luz para Todos/as,
Les comparto música cómo siempre, para alegrar el camino,
Hoy, me gustaría celebrar junto a ustedes de manera virtual mis cinco años de aventura y aprendizaje en WordPress. Este aniversario es muy importante para mi, porque es parte de mi retos personales de aprender siempre algo nuevo.
Aquí, les comparto las cinco cosas más importantes que he aprendido hasta ahora.
Manejar el lenguaje de la plataforma.
Estoy construyendo la website o blog como me gusta . Sigo estudiando.
He aprendido a usar los widgets, plugins y todo el meta lenguaje que tiene.
Tener este espacio, me ha permitido conectar con otros bloggers a nivel global. Intercambiar opiniones, recursos, tips y sobretodo crear comunidad.
He estudiado mucho. He experimentado con casi todos los temas de WordPress. Con estos conocimientos de la plataforma he ayudado a otras personas a crear su propio Blog.
Quiero agradecer, a TODOS los que me siguen, especialmente a los 5 primeros que por AZAR Causalmente se inscribieron en mi blog ( que no son ni familiares ni amigos ni esposo) . A los 5 personas que más me comentas , y a los 5 últimos bloggers que llegaron a mi espacio, bitácora, blog! A TODOS, mi agradecimiento eterno.
Cinco años explorando y aprendiendo en WordPress. Yannis Lobaina
Les invito a que Relean o descubran mis cinco post más leído durante estos cinco años.
Los que me conocen, saben que amo la ciencia de la numerología. Y desde el punto de vista de la numerología, el 5 es el número del cambio, el movimiento, la mutación, el que permite alcanzar la maestría gracias la propia experimentación.
En mi opinión el 5 es un número mágico y poderoso. Este número posee unas fuertes connotaciones. Una de ellas es que el número 5 representa los 5 sentidos: la vista, el olfato, el oído, el gusto y el tacto. Visto así, el número 5 significa la adaptación y la fuerza del interior. Además como simbología del número 5 se relacionan con la creatividad y la diplomacia. Y por último, algo que me fascinó leer hace unos días , es que El 5 representa una invitación a disfrutar y experimentar la vida en todo su esplendor, transformándonos permanentemente.
Les dejo aquí algunas fuentes de las que me he nutrido para aprender.
Y cómo siempre, les comparto mis Playlist. Les abrazo grande, y deseo que este 2021 nos sea más ligero, que haya tiempo para explorar la creatividad, disfrutar la familia y jugar.
2020 has been a tough time to reflect on our values and the use of our time. Every year-end, I do this exercise to summarize everything that happened to me. It is an excellent opportunity to embrace the good and positive things that happened to us and learn from the negative, and acknowledge the UNIVERSE for it.
I like to do this kind of review of the year. Celebrating each step is an act of confirmation for our efforts.
4. I finished 2 manuscripts and sent them to possible publishers.
5. I supported various groups and individuals with my knowledge of using social media.
6. I enjoyed seeing the positive behaviour and sensitivity of my daughter Amélie in her online classes.
7. Enjoy being in our family bubble more than ever.
8. I participated in the RAW Artists Canada National Arts Drive as a photographer and exhibited my new Storytelling Photographs in my window. I also supported them as Ambassador of the city of Toronto. It was a great experience.
¡Les deseo a Todos ustedes y a su familia unas maravillosas y seguras vacaciones de invierno! Espero que se tome el tiempo para relajarse, reflexionar y disfrutar de las festividades.
¡Les deseo lo mejor en estas fiestas!
Cuídense mucho y espero verlos de nuevo por aquí. ¡Todos los mejores deseos para un brillante 2021!
I wish you and your family a wonderful and safe Holiday season! I hope you take the time to relax, reflect, and enjoy the festivities. However, you choose to celebrate.
I wish you the best this holiday season ever!
Be safe, and looking forward to seeing you, all the best wishes for a bright 2021!
Les dejo el link de un libro hermoso, Malaika’s Winter Carnival . Se los recomiendo, Lo disfruté mucho, el año pasado junto a mi hija Amélie. Y para estos meses de invierno en Toronto, Malaika me hace pensar en mi primer invierno en Canadá.
Para seguir conectados, no se olviden de si desean pueden seguirme en Instagram y Goodread. Ambas plataformas, me fascinan y creo que son muy buenas para aprender, interactuar y encontrar personas afines con las que intercambiar opiniones sobre literatura.
Maps of Canadian Independent Bookstores. Más de 250 librerías independientes a tener en cuenta.
Este Maps of Canadian Independent Bookstores, lo encontré “causalmente” hace un par de meses, en mis constantes búsqueda sobre librerías de la ciudad de Toronto. Justo, tenía la idea de hacer un mapa de las librerías independientes a las que apoyo, en dónde siempre compro mis libros. Cuando de repente, me encontré que ya otra persona lo había realizado. Maravilloso. En este mapa, hay más de 250 librerías. Les dejo el mapa, y algunas de las fotos de las que yo he visitado aquí en Toronto.

Más de 10 libros y 10 valores fundamentales. para educar a nuestros hijos.
Hoy, quiero compartir con ustedes, algunos de los libros que he leído , releído junto a mi hija Amélie, o he trabajado en mis talleres de Creative Writing & Storytelling, durante estos meses de confinamiento.
Estar en casa con ella, durante estos meses de pandemia, ha sido la otra cara de la moneda, una bendición, un gran privilegio, una gran oportunidad para leer más juntas , disfrutar la rutinafamiliar, estimular su imaginación y sus capacidades cognitivas. Sobre todo, educarla de una forma divertida, y creando lazos fuertes entre nosotras dos.
Siempre, trato de elegir libros que sirvan de espejo para Amélie. Como escritora, soy consciente de exactamente qué tipo de literatura, quiero seleccionar para su disfrute y educación.
Cuando selecciono nuestros libros, busco aquellos que reflejan mis raíces de habla hispana, libros infantiles bilingües, libros que exaltan los valores familiares, cualquier tipo de clasificación familiar. Y sobre todo, valores humanos. Respeto por la tierra, por nuestros antepasados.
Amélie le encanta la ciencia, así que le compramos una colección de mujeres científicas. De esta forma, desde muy jovencita también va tomando conciencia de que ella también puede optar por esta carrera.
Todo esto, de forma natural, a través de los libros sin imponer nada, y con una disciplina positiva. De este modo, le puedo crear una base para la literatura multicultural, con libros de gran calidad y con muchos valores humanos.
Yo, particularmente, creo que la educación en valores ayuda a que nuestros hijos e hijas crezcan como seres humanos consciente de su momentoy, en un futuro, problamente, se conviertan en adultos sin prejuicios y con una mente abierta para enfrentar y disfrutar del mundo que les rodea.
Y quizás, algunos se pregunten cuales son estos 10 valores fundamentales?
Antes de comentarles cuales son los mios, no podemos olvidar que para la transmisión de esos valores es mucho más importante lo que hacemos que lo que decimos y por tanto, debemos mostrar coherencia en nuestras acciones a la hora de educar. Eduquemos con nuestro ejemplo en la convivencia diaria y cotidiana.
Mis 10 valores fundamentales son:
1. La empatía: A mi hija, le muestro que debe que aprender a ponerse en el lugar del otro y entender cómo piensan y sienten los demás ya que se trata de un valor necesario para la convivencia.
2. La humildad: Siempre le hablo que ella que no es superior ni a nada ni a nadie en ningún sentido a pesar de mostrar seguridad en las capacidades que posee.
3. La autoestima: Este valor para mi es muy importante, ya que como niña es vital que aprenda a valorarse a sí misma. Una buena forma de fomentar la autoestima es a través de una herramienta muy poderosa: el elogio de sus buenas acciones.
4. El compromiso: El compromiso es un valor que demuestra madurez y responsabilidad. Se va adquiriendo progresivamente con los años. Debemos hacer ver a nuestros hijos el valor de la palabra dada.
5. La gratitud: Este es otro de los valores que yo considero primordial, es muy valioso que nuestros hijos aprendan a mostrar gratitud siempre, no solo en “Thanksgiving “.
6. La amistad: El valor de la amistad, es algo que para mi como madre inmigrante es muy importante, y siempre intento cultivar y apoyar a mi hija en crear esos afectos mutuos y mantener contacto con las amistades que ella considera importante.
7. El optimismo: Es un valor esencial que nuestros hijos aprendan a vivir la vida con entusiasmo y optimismo. A mi hija, le he enseñado a siempre buscar el lado positivo de las cosas a pesar de los reveses que nos presenta la vida, como este gran incierto confinamiento que todos estamos viviendo.
8. La paciencia: Este es un gran valor, y es uno de los mas complejo de cultivar en nuestros hijos ya que a veces, nosotros como adultos, no actuamos con mucha paciencia. Cultivar la paciencia y aprender a esperar , les ayudará a controlar y canalizar su impulsividad mostrando una actitud paciente y serena frente a la vida.
9. El esfuerzo: Este es otro gran tema, como Latinx madre, crecida en el medio de una crisis económica en Cuba, desde pequeña aprendí que debía esforzarme para lograr lo que quería. Este es un valor necesario en la sociedad actual que se caracteriza por la inmediatez y el mínimo esfuerzo. A nuestros niños debemos mostrarle que todo lo que quieren conseguir requiere de un esfuerzo.
10. La felicidad: Este según muchos psicologos y estudiosos del tema, debe ser el objetivo de la educación que ofrecemos a nuestros hijos. Conquistar su felicidad y que sean capaces de transmitir y contagiar esa felicidad a los demás. Para ello es importante cultivar la alegría, el optimismo, el sentido del humor, etc. Solo aquel que es feliz puede transmitir felicidad.
Y tú, ¿cuáles consideras que deben ser los valores fundamentales que tienes que transmitir a tus hijos?
Casi siempre, compro nuestros libros, en pequeñas librerías locales y librerías independientes a nivel mundial y las librerías de segunda mano o libros de uso. Les dejo el link de los libros, y las editoriales pequeñas bookstores en Toronto, en donde he comprado algunos de los títulos que menciono.
