Sólo uno puede, pero solo no se puede
Only oneself can , but not alone.
"Together we stand, divided we'll fall" P.F.
Reporte semanal: La semana pasada fue muy dura para mí, pero ya pasó. El lunes fui con mi psiquiatra y me vio bien a pesar de las circunstancias que estaba viviendo. A lo mejor es que ya soy un perro viejo en esto de la bipolaridad y como la mayor parte de este viaje ha sido en solitario se reconocer rápidamente los síntomas de manía y depresión y ya no me queda rastro de negación de mi condición.. Por lo que inmediatamente trato de dejar que fluya esa energía y sacarla por medio de la palabra,el arte, la meditación y claro, sin dejar los medicamentos. En caso extremo pues le hablo al mecánico, es decir al dr.
Así que no puedo más que estar profundamente agradecido con los miembros de mi familia que me ayudaron con el seguro.
Ayer y hoy me desperté pensando en la frase del título de esta entrada: “sólo uno puede, pero solo no se puede” y en el concepto de “cooperación”. Pienso que la “cooperación” la podríamos ubicar entre el individualismo y el colectivismo extremos. El “Yo” trabajando con otros “Yos”. El concientizar que “Yo” no puedo estar cómodo, en paz, si otro o varios “Yoes” que están cerca de mi están pasando por una dificultad. Si esta virtud tuviera un efecto dómino en la sociedad cambiarían tantas cosas y tan rápidamente… Así que la cooperación conlleva el bienestar de un grupo y por lo tanto de uno mismo. Y aquí sí me atrevo a hacer una afirmación: No existe posibilidad alguna de un bienestar individual y comunitario sin la COOPERACIÓN.

Only oneself can , but not alone.
Weekly Report : Last week was very hard for me , but it passed. On Monday I went to my psychiatrist and he saw me well despite the circumstances I was living. Maybe it's that I'm an old dog in this of bipolarity and as most of this trip has been in solitary I quickly recognize the symptoms of mania and depression and I have no trace of denying my condition anymore. So I immediately try to let that energy flow and pull it out through word, art, meditation and of course , without leaving the medications. In extreme cases I call the “mechanic”, ie dr.
The circumstances have not changed much : uncertainty , instability of the external factors continue (money , food, bills, debts, legal and bureaucratic issues, etc. .. ) However , this week I have been stable , with mettle and , above all, better understood by members of my family who are close to me . We all are going through a very hard time economically and emotionally, but they could help pay the $ 70dls for public health insurance . That's the priority for me , given the circumstances it is easy to fall into a crisis and if I run out of medication and uninsured, it could be extremely delicate. So although at the moment I can’t have the diet that I would like , or do the amount of exercise I used to do, I feel good . So I’m still working on my art and I think I'm about to sell some custom pieces. And speaking about art, I had a friend who is an "art dealer" and never supported my project. I feel she’s too "snob" with respect to art. It is a very close circle very mercantilist, vain and arrogant to me. I think she saw my work as a hobby and for me it doesn’t just means work, It is a necessity, one of my main sources of catharsis. I do not know if I ever would be able to live of my work, but I think that much of life is self-realization, if not,it is only surviving life and that’s not the idea. That's what I feel and think.
So I can only be deeply grateful to the members of my family who helped me with the insurance.
Yesterday and today I woke up thinking about the phrase from the title of this post: " Only oneself can , but not alone" and the concept of "cooperation". I think that "cooperation" could be locate it between extreme individualism and collectivism . The "I " working with others " I’s " . The awareness that "I" can not be comfortable , at peace , if one or more " I's" that are close to you are going through hard times. If this virtue had a domino effect in society so many things would change very rapidly... So cooperation involves the welfare of a group and therefore yourself. And here I dare to make a statement : There is no possibility of individual and community well-being without COOPERATION .
