How to be the right person, for the right person?

What do we all want and need? 

Everybody at least once a day, thinks about what they want in a partner. Haven’t we all heard from our family, friends, neighbors, etc.? I want a man like this… I want a woman like that…… It’s all about what we want and need. Some of us even have a list of the qualities we would like our partners to have. Others have already given up, because they can’t find that right person.

 

I would like to share with you something once someone told me, and I will never forget. She said something within this lines, “You want a person that is charming, and has and does everything on your list, a “perfect man”. However, do you know what this man wants? Are you the person that this “perfect man” is looking for? Would you fit all the qualities that this man wants in a woman?” 

 

 

Do we ever think about that your right person, and want they would like, what their needs and wants are? Do we live up to the standards of that special someone we are looking for. I don’t know about you, but I sure know I wasn’t. I would never find a charming person to fulfill all the qualities on my list, lol, if I didn’t first fulfill his.  

The final question is,  

I am the right person for the person I am looking for? Would he/she look at me and say, “I have found you!!” 

 

Don’t forget we all look for the same thing.

 

Mexicans in Mexico don’t celebrate “Cinco de Mayo”

If Mexico’s Independence Day is September 16, what is Cinco de Mayo?

In the early 1860s, Mexico was in large debt with European countries, one of them being France. France’s Emperor Napoleon III decided to invade Mexico and force repayment. The French outnumbered the Mexicans in a 2-1 ratio. Although the invasion violated the Unites States’ Monroe Doctrine, they couldn’t help. The Unites States was too busy taking care of its own Civil War.

As France succeeded and moved toward Mexico City, Mexico’s capital, on May 5th, 1862, they found defeat. At the city of Puebla, the unexpected happened. It was nearly impossible for Mexicans to win, but they won a battle in Puebla. Even though the French did reach Mexico City and took over the country, as expected, Mexicans see this battle as a massive victory.

When the Civil War was over in the U.S.A., the French were mandated to leave Mexico and obligated to return home.

Today, Mexico’s Independence Day is the only day celebrated in Mexico. Mexican-Americans and Americans are the ones that have turned Cinco de Mayo into a “Mexican holiday”. In Mexico only City of Puebla celebrated Cinco de Mayo.

Why is it so big of a deal in America?

an american tradition

 

Before the U.S reached its current size, much of its land was Mexican, where Cinco de Mayo was celebrated more than 100 years ago. And so, the tradition was carried along thru the years and the country. Today we celebrate Cinco de Mayo and embrace Mexican Heritage, all around the world.
