The Rose that Grew from Concrete

The Rose that Grew from Concrete

Tupac Shakur

 

“Did you hear about the rose that grew from a crack in the concrete? Proving nature's laws wrong, it learned to walk without having feet. Funny, it seems to by keeping its dreams; it learned to breathe fresh air. Long live the rose that grew from concrete when no one else even cared.” 

― Tupac Shakur, The Rose That Grew from Concrete

“we wouldn't ask why a rose that grew from the concrete for having damaged petals, in turn, we would all celebrate its tenacity, we would all love its will to reach the sun, well, we are the roses, this is the concrete and these are my damaged petals, dont ask me why, thank God, and ask me how” 

 

You see you wouldn’t ask why the rose that grew from the concrete had damaged petals. On the contrary, we would all celebrate its tenacity. We would all love it’s will to reach the sun. Well, we are the rose - this is the concrete - and these are my damaged petals.

I asked and I got

I asked for strength and God gave me difficulties to make me strong.

I asked for wisdom and he gave me problems to solve.

I asked for prosperity and he gave me brawn and brains to work.

I asked for courage and he gave me dangers to overcome.

I asked him for patience and he placed me in situations where I was forced to wait and accept.

I asked for love and he gave me troubled people to help.

I asked for favors and he gave me opportunities.

I asked for everything so I could enjoy life. 
Instead, He gave me life so I could enjoy everything.

I received nothing I wanted but I received everything I needed.

I´ve literally left one of my ABC´s on the back burner. No excuses really, but I don´t know how I survived this whirlwind of work: personal, professional, emotional, health, spiritual, issues and so forth.

This long hiatus was a time and place to think, reflect, plan, strategize, analyze, and put my next long-term goals in writing to wrap up 2015 and embrace 2016 feeling stronger and more stable.

I am ready to bounce back, retaliate and revisit my values in order to grow within my sphere and  - My ABC´s.

El arte de la enseñanza, como cualquier profesión, no es ÚNICAMENTE cuestión de adquirir habilidades. Tiene que ver con el proceso de deconstrucción(cambio) personal, estructuras internas y la reconstrucción en el trato a cada estudiante, sus necesidades, su formación académica, sus prioridades y objetivos.

Esto significa que yo tengo que evaluar constantemente mis valores personales, motivos y objetivos, y debo estar dispuesta a realizar cambios positivos necesarios a fin de crecer como profesionista y mejorar día a día en cumplimiento de entregar ética, honestidad, transparencia, y sabiduría. Puedo llegar a ser altamente calificada y educada, pero SIN un deseo genuino de servir a los demás, mi carrera, uno de mis más fuertes sustentos en el ámbito profesional e intelectual, con el tiempo se convertirá en una carga insoportable.
Mi objetivo es ser realmente una ayuda a los demás, incitarlos, pesuadirlos para llegar hacia un mañana mejor y más prometedor para llegar a la plenitud del aprendizaje

Esto es el efecto de la reciprocidad - soy un elemento importante en la enseñanza y sirvo a los demás a través de mis habilidades. A cambio de esto, estoy en paz conmigo misma profesionalmente. Además este premio me impulsa a luchar por ser mejor.




Food for thought

The Teaching medical (Translation/Writing/Coaching artistry, Teaching, (like any profession), is NOT simply a matter of skill acquisition. It involves a process of personal deconstruction (internal structures) and reconstruction in dealing with each student, client, individual and/or patient, case, prior medical history, needs, priorities and objectives.

This means that I must constantly evaluate my personal values, motives, and goals and I must be willing to make any necessary positive changes in order to evolve as a professional and improve day by day in pursuance of delivering ethics, honesty, transparency and knowledge.

I can become highly skilled and educated, but SANS a genuine desire to serve others, my career, one of my strongest professional and intelectual sustenances, would eventually become an unbearable burden.
My goal is to genuinely be of assistance to others, entice them and persuade them to reach towards a better and more promising tomorrow to reach wholeness - See more at: http://ginayoryet.blogspot.mx/#sthash.UIbgmhud.dpuf
This is the effect of reciprocating - I am an important element in the teaching (medical field) and I serve others through my skills. In exchange of that, I am at ease with myself professionally. Furthermore this reward propels me to strive for better.
