When maturity grows?
en los momentos pequeños, no en las grandes ocasiones.
It’s not in the grand decision of what college you selected, but in how hard you studied on a certain given evening just before finals. It’s not in the grand decision of which job offer you accepted, but in the thousands and thousands of split second decisions you made afterwards as you balanced a file of reports in one hand and a phone and a pen in the other. It’s not in the grand decision of how you proposed, or even, for the most part, who you proposed to, but in the millions of moments in your married life since then, when you were tired, irritable, or overwhelmed by the worries of life.
Devenir
En la vida siempre ocurren acontecimientos que modifican las circunstancias.
La necesidad de adaptación a ello es una constante invariable.
How’s life
Life is difficult and challenging, nothing wrong when change or bad happens.
