"Love means never having to say you're sorry" was a memorable line said by the actress Ali MacGraw in the movie “Love Story” in 1970. This line has been repeated in several contexts, sometimes, not the most appropriate ones, but meanings and perceptions are sometimes different. What does this have to do with  The Meaning of Love, Compassion and Faith ? Well, read along and find out! I remember seeing the movie in 1970 and confess that at that time I did not understand the real meaning and strength of the phrase. "Love means never having to say you're sorry" is a phrase based on a line from the Erich Segal novel “Love Story” and was popularized by its 1970 film adaptation starring Ali MacGraw and Ryan O'Neal, but this line can be so much more intense, when we understand love in a broad sense and align it with compassion and faith.

I think we agree that as years go by, the healthcare industry gets to be more and more costly, either by new expensive medication or new extremely ever sophisticated equipment. There are outraging examples but I am not going to refer any, instead I will focus on why the collective must do some serious rethinking about healthcare and get back to basic balance.

It is imperative to start rethinking health as a whole. It´s all about balance! It´s all about quantities! It´s all about e...

Soon in life we assimilate the fears our parents, family, teachers and society infuse in us almost since birth. To free ourselves from those instilled fears, in order to, live life in love instead of fear, knowing and owning our truth by trust in thyself, is sometimes a work of a lifetime. Most of my life was lived through fear; from the fear of punishment from my parents from early childhood and throughout all my teenager life, to the fear of not being enough in school, career or as a wife, or even as a mother continued throughout most of my life until one day, one day I can´t even remember, I had no fear whatsoever, to the point I did not even lock my door when living alone in a remote place. I was frequently asked: Are you not afraid to live here all by yourself? Without hesitating I would say  NO! When I realized this, I was   not even sure how it happened but now looking back, I think my reset button was set when I was literally sick and tired of people tel...
