6. No title... intentionally.

I've learned about the importance of living with a capital L. Often we prefer to know what to expect and how to behave so that we can do exactly that. For me, I think it's a result of being a Latin in an Anglo world. It takes my nerves about fitting in away. It does a lot of things to one's head to refuse to be a minority in one's mind as well. I don't even remember the exact experience, but while thinking in retrospective about something I went through, I realized that I was proper and normal but that, as a result, I missed out on the fun of the occasion. Some may call that fun "Living the moment". I heard something on Dr. Phil one day; he said, "If you only knew how little people think about you, you would stop worrying about what they think about you". IT'S TRUE! Why try to live according to a script, an opinion, a fear... or a title? Why place such limits on life? There really is no title in life, I think. In Spanish there is a saying that says, "I cannot be a gold coin," which basically means that not everyone will like us. And, I don't know, but I think this type of attitude would get rid of a lot of hypocrisy and a lack of sincerity in us. L.
