Working on at 40ºc Plus

We live in one of the hottest areas of Andalusia, so taking any  outside photos is a whole adventure at 40ºc plus...
I still keep on working at the essence of my everyday life:

1.-Greet and celebrate  the new day like the unique present it is.
  Most of the time we are so busy that we tend to  take life for granted...

2-Never get angry.

 I learned not to give  that power to anybody or anything.

Getting crossed wastes  precious energy and achieves nothing...

3.- Never fight, but dialogue.

When I have to discuss any matter, I  always do it from the  inner calm.

Losing that calm would be like being back in the  playground,  and that is a place I do not wish to go back to.

4.- When something negative  happens to me I don´t ask  myself why?, but what for?,  in that way rather than  feeling sorry for myself , I  move a step  closer to the better person I want to be...

5- I acknowledge people as such, and look at their  faces while talking to them: from the banker to the beggar...


6- Being kind to others is the best present you can give to yourself.

Kindness is a ping pong ball, once launched  into the air it will hit many hearts, and will come back to you multiplied.



Vivimos  en una de las zonas más calurosas de Andalucía, así es que hacer fotos en exteriores a 40ºc plus es toda una aventura.
A pesar de eso sigo  trabajando la esencia de mi días.
1.- Recibir y celebrar cada nuevo día como el regalo que es.
La mayor parte del tiempo estamos tan ocupados que lo damos por hecho.
2.-Nunca me enfado.
He aprendido a no darle a nadies ni a nada ese poder. Es una pérdida d energía que no lleva ningún término...
3.-Nunca pelear, sino dialogar.
Siempre que tengo que discutir algún asunto lo hago desde la calma interior.
la pérdida de esa calma sería como volver al patio de recreo, lugar al que por nada del mundo quiero volver.
4.-Cuando algo negativo me sucede, no me pregunto por qué, sino para que?. De esa forma en lugar de auto compadecerme, muevo ficha hacia la mejor persona que quiero ser.
5.-Reconocer a las personas como tal y mirarlas a la cara al hablar, desde el banquero al mendigo...
6.-Ser amable con los demás es el mejor regalo que te puedes hacer a tí mismo.
La amabilidad es una pelota de ping pong  que una vez lanzada al aire tocará  muchos corazones y volverá a tí multiplicada.

Such wonderful sentiments - I could definately use a refresher. It is too easy to forget these simple things!

Sacramento, you are as beautiful and stylish as you are wise. You look GORGEOUS and svelte in the heat and I love your sentiments, especially instead of asking 'why me?' ask 'What for?' - that one really hit home for me.

Oh, we have 30° C today and I'm already suffering from it....;-)
That's a great philosophy of life and I think that the world would be a better place if more people lived and acted like this....Put a smile into the world and it will return to you....

Outfit; you look great today; I love the combination of these two "signal" colours and I do totally like your earrings.

Wish you a great and joyful day; I feel so glad that I found your blog.

Y nos quejamos aqui con 30 graditos. Espero que estes cerquita del ventilador cuando nos leas. Me gustan los colores veraniegos de tu estilismo, me hacen pensar en los ingredientes de un gazpacho. Y es que me pillas almorzandome un Nasi Goreng (arroz Thailandes) que me pide liquido. Gracias por tus palabras, vienen en unos momentos en los que me son necesarias.

Judith dijo...

Your words and your outfit are inspiring. I have felt your kindness over the past few months! And the earrings!

i love the outfit (screaming at those earrings ahhhh) but i love the wise words you gave even more. This quote especially
"Kindness is a ping pong ball, once launched into the air it will hit many hearts, and will come back to you multiplied"

Such a nice statement to live by.

Cuanta razón tienes!!! en esta vida hay que ser positivos y ver lo bueno de cada cosa. ¿Alguien dijo que las rayas horizontales no sientan bien? pues a ti te sientan fenomenal. Me encanta la combinación de hoy, tengo una falda muy parecida.

Özer dijo...

¡Hermosa filosofía de vida! Y conservarla a esas temperaturas es heróico, por acá ya queremos ahorcarnos los unos a los otros cuando la temperatura sube de los 30°. ¡Abrazos!

Katrin dijo...

It isn't that hot here, but people tent to get angry and frustrated when it is over 30° instead of just chill down a bit because it won't make you feel better when you are heated up of anger on the inside while the air is also heated up!

More people should read and try to understand your wise words :)

Also I love you earrings and the fresh and summery color combination of your outfit!

Cardamomo dijo...

Compartimos la misma filosofía de vida, aunque confieso que a veces me fastidia que me digan "eres demasiado buena" cuando quieren decir "eres tonta perdida", la gente suele confundir la elección de ser amable con la falta de carácter, o confunden el carácter con la prepotencia.
Y yo ya no tengo el alma para demostraciones ni justificaciones, así soy y feliz me voy.

Great outfit. I think it's a bit more figure-hugging than usual and it really suits you, you look fabulous!

señora Allnut dijo...

cuánta razón tienen, y creo que hay que intentarlo siempre, nada de envenenarse en peleas tontas, ni reaccionar con enfado, y no dejar que las cosas malas te estropeen el disfrutar de las buenas!!
Y me gusta tanto tu bisutería años 80, y esa mezcla de colores: me apunto a las rayas rojas con verde!

FashionFreak dijo...

Qué post tan maravilloso y lleno de inspiración acabas de crear! Y no lo digo por el modelito (aunque me encanta) sino por esas sabias enseñanzas que nos acabas de regalar, todos deberíamos aprender de tu forma de ver la vida. La verdad es que tienes toda la razón del mundo, cabrearse no te lleva a ningún lado, lo único que consigues es estar jodido y vivir amargado... y en la vida ya hay demasiadas cosas malas o problemas que no podemos evitar, como para aún encima complicárnosla más estando con un humor de perros. Yo todavía tengo que mejorar en mi actitud ante la vida, no tanto en los cabreos sino en no hundirme en la miseria de vez en cuando, que tengo tendencia a la autocompasión y el pasotismo :/
Pero sí que intento ser una persona amable con los demás, sobre todo en el trabajo... tengo compañeros que se pasan el día con cara avinagrada, pero yo por muy cansada que esté intento tener siempre una sonrisa para los clientes, y por supuesto ser agradable con mis compañeros... el buen ambiente es algo impagable!

Y dicho esto, que sepas que me he enamorado de tu look! Uno de los mejores que te he visto nunca, me chifla esa falda verde y te queda genial con la camiseta de rayas y ese maravilloso cinturón.

1 beso enorme!!

Anieblu dijo...

madre mía y yo me kejo con mis treintaypoco grados.....pero la verdad es que aún recuerdo las quemaduras de mi piel de cuando estuve en sevilla, y eso que era mayo aún....
la verdad es que tienes toda la razón del mundo, hay que mirar más alla de lo que uno ve por que si no los árboles nos impiden ver el bosque, y tenemos la mal´sima costumbre de gritar en vez de hablar, y ya el mundo es bastante frenetico como para que nostros lo pongamos íun más, yo odio el estres!!
Me encanta tu cinturón, y me encanta el modo de combinar rayas como el verde esmeralda, para mi es tod un gran acierto!!!
Un besazo, y para la calor, zumitos frescos, te helado, sombras el abanico, y paciencia, :-)

Dear Sacramento, wise words indeed. As you say kindness costs nothing. If someone is rude I'm always extra nice to take them by surprise.

You look super stylish in the heat. 40 degrees is too hot for me! Hope you're good. Much love, C xx

Vanessa dijo...

I love this green skirt - the shape and the length, and how you paired it with red and yet have avoided looking like Christmas. It's great! (I also marvel at your rules to live by!)

Terri dijo...

What excellent colors in this outfit...watermelon comes to mind, something good for warm days.

Point #5 strikes me as most important--every encounter with a fellow human being is a holy encounter.

Sacramento que filosofia de vida mas hermosa. Yo estoy de acuerdo contigo con todo excepto que yo todavia tengo el temperamento Caribeno y cuando alguien ofende a mi familia o a mi trabajo tengo las tendencia de poner a la gente en su lugar de manera educada pero directa.
Odoro tus aretes y la mescla de colores y lineas en la camisa y la falda verde.
Muchos besos y abeazos,

Debbie Baker Burns dijo...

Sacramento, Beautiful wise words. I like what you said about not giving your power away in anger. I keep working towards my own philosophy. One nice thing about growing older is you feel more sure of who you are and what you believe. On another note, that's an awesome belt, a nice color combination and I love the stripes. On one last note, if I have my comments figured out I think I emailed you this, but if not, thanks for the comments about my site. I read and reread Beautifully Invisible’s three part tutorial on switching from Blogspot to WordPress.org. I basically did everything she said and it’s worked out pretty well. There is still MUCH for me to learn but that’s just part of it and I do get excited every time I figure out something new. I'm doing the 30 for 30 remix right now and posting daily but I am entertaining the idea of posting fewer days a week. How did you work your schedule out? Debbie

Kavery dijo...

They are all so true but I love #3 and 6 the best. I love the bold stripes with the gorgeous green skirt on you

Two Stylish Kays dijo...

Wow..I needed to read your inspiring words...especially #4instead of asking why me? ask what for? That one really hits home. There is a reason for this season. Your outfit is so stylish! I love the accessories especially the belt and earrings.

The Platinum Batch dijo...

LOVE THIS OUTFIT. you have such a great style!

A BRIT GREEK dijo...

They are all so true, it's always a little difficult to tackle things and remain calm when you are stressed out, angry or peed off, but it's so not worth wasting that energy.

Loving the belt and the earring especially, you look super stunning in this outfit.

you always have the best accessories, those earrings are so divine xxx

Penny Dreadful dijo...

So true Sacramento, people find it very hard to be rude to them when you smile and look them in the eye. That said, I turn into a nightmare when I get stuck on a crowded street, it is so frustrating to be stuck behind people when I like walking FAST! ;) xx

Pull Your Socks Up! dijo...

Dear Sacramento, what a beautiful post - you have reminded me what it means to be part of the human race. We're all on this planet together, let's help each other to be better and stronger people. How do you manage to LOOK so cool and calm in that heat? xoxoxoxoxo

Oh, 40 degrees is HOT - but you still manage to look very chic, Sacramento. Wonderful life philosophies... I still get angry (especially on the tennis court), but the older I get the more tolerant I am towards myself and others - which feels good. xoxo

Wow girl what a chique look, one of my favorites so far. I love the shape and the color of the skirt, actually the skirt is perfect. fabulous with the striped tee, the colors are so bright and perfect together. but what an idea to wear it with a fabulous belt! Gorgeous finishing touch. oh and I love the sunnies. 40°C, I cannot even imagine how that feels, when it is like over 30°C in Belgium it is never hot, but humid and sticky!

Love the color of your skirt and its design ! Great stripped blouse.

You are so right... I totally agree with all your tips! It becomes even more easy to lose your temper in the hot summer sun but it's so importan to be kind and think twice before you say something that could hurt someone else's feelings.

Earrings are gorgeous!

I know what it feels like to survive through hot weather believe me. last summer was the hottest summer *or period of time* I can ever remember. My fridge broke down when it was 52 degrees outsided, it was a nightmare. That's why I envy you beacuse you still seem to be chic and elegant while it is boiling out there!

Hele dijo...

Hoy en el metro me he cruzado a una mujer que me ha recordado mucho a ti, a tu estilo, alegre y colorido.

Y llevaba un bolso precioso!!!!

Me ha encantado tu filosofía de vida. Yo estoy muy lejos de cumplirla, aunque me considero una persona alegre y muy sociable no puedo evitar que me lleven los demonios a veces...

será cuestión de, como dices, seguir creciendo

I really like the red and green combo. I have a necklace with those colors, but I have never done the combination in clothing. Sharp look. I truly love that belt! It is just so unique and makes the outfit.

You look amazing I love the accessories and your decision to pair that shirt with that skirt is on point.

Muy acertados tus consejos, sobre todo el cuarto. En el trabajo, a veces, pierdo un poco los papeles, pero intento que no se note mucho y que esa situación dure lo menos posible poniéndole remedio. Totalmente de acuerdo con que la amabilidad es una pelota de pingpong. Tus pendientes son fabulosos.

Bss.

First of all...that green skirt is simply amazing on you and second of all ''Never get angry.
I learned not to give that power to anybody or anything. Getting crossed wastes precious energy and achieves nothing...'' Is the best quote ever!! I love it.

Querida Sacramento
Después de unos días muy ocupada sin tiempo para casi nada por fín disfruto de mi primer día de vacaciones y vengo a verte encantada para agradecerte tus visitas y tus palabras
Durante este verano visitaré tu blog muy a menudo para practicar el inglés,he pensado utilizar tus entradas y tus traducciones para ponerme un poco al día con este idioma porque para el curso que viene dejo a los pequeños de Infantil y me voy a Primaria para comenzasr un Proyecto de Centro Bilingüe por lo que tendré que ir a la escuela oficial de idiomas.
Estoy muy entusiasmada con la idea
aunque esto signifique que me tenga que poner a estudiar después del trabajo
Muchos besos
¡Estás tan guapa como siempre!
y me ha encantado esa reflexión que has hecho ,la comparto plenamente contigo
Un Abrazo
