Ahora que las jubilaciones ya son cosa del pasado, planear el futuro a largo plazo es una tarea que mientras más pronto nos ocupe, mejor. Hay diversas maneras de ahorrar e instituciones que lo facilitan. Sin embargo, se habla en menor medida de la posibilidad y las ventajas de invertir en bienes raíces. Es por…
My first reaction is what beauty? I’ve definitely crossed over to the invisible side. I rather prefer it that way… My whole life my weight has fluctuated quite a bit and my self-image with it. When I’ve been fat, I’ve been ugly — at least in my mind. I noticed that the more weight I gained, the…
En 2019 SIMCA cumplimos 15 años. ¡Vaya celebración! ¿Cómo pudo el proyecto de unos amigos lograr tanto? Festejamos 15 años de logros, 15 años de metas cumplidas, clientes satisfechos, premios, 15 años de aprendizaje y de mucho crecimiento, pero después de todo entendimos que también inició un nuevo reto aún mayor, competir contra el futuro.…
We bumped along a rutted dirt road in a rented SUV, parking a quarter mile from the trailhead leading to the summit of Mount Democrat. The four of us hoisted backpacks stuffed with water, food, dry socks, and extra clothes onto our backs. The thin, 38-degree air nipped at exposed hands and faces. Winded by the…
When I saw the old man waiting by the pond with his camera my heart fractured a little along the fault lines, already weak, still vulnerable. He was counting on the cormorants, their wings spread wide, and waiting for the mating beavers, swooping under the surface, staying underwater longer than you’d think they could possibly…
There are these moments in your life where you don’t know where the power is coming from, but you find yourself making a choice, a choice you never imagined you would make — even in your bravest daydreams — but somehow, you choose, and everything changes. Gainesville, Florida is small, but radical — like most college towns…
A little over a year ago, I quit my job, sold my home and gave away 99% of my possessions so that I could travel the world. It was the most exciting thing I’ve ever done. To me, quitting a great job was very scary (No more income! A large gap in my employment history!…
I remember staring at my watch hoping that I could eat now. Had it been 16 hours yet? I imagined my stomach passive-aggressively pretending to digest knowing full well it was empty. I thought I couldn’t wait, but I could. I had waited yesterday and I was fine, I could wait today. When I First…
I’ve been a runner since college. I took up the sport because, as a result of too much beer and late-night fried food, I’d become a victim of the so-called “Freshman 15.” Running was cheap. No gym membership, just a pair of shoes and you can go straight from your front door. In the beginning,…
The last thing I remember before passing out was the pain.

It was 3 a.m. on the morning of my 43rd birthday, and depression had finally consumed me. There was no clear…
