Latin Billboards 2013

I attended the Latin Billboard awards this week with my friend and fab blogger, Maria de Los Angeles (@vicequeenmaria ) compliments of Target.

 

Besides getting all fired up listening to all the fantastic music, I was deeply moved by a very touching tribute to Jenni Rivera who won best artist of the year.  Some of the expressions from her family were:

Hispanicize 2013 Recap ~ Mucho Sabor Latino

Events / By / 2 minutes of reading /

I attended Hispanicize recently and was honored to speak at the Tech Bloggers session. Here are some of the highlights of the conference.

Cristy Clavijo-Kish with Yolanda Pagan when they announced the Memorial Scholarship fund for Louis Pagan’s children. Louis Pagan was the co-founder of Hispanicize and one of the first people I met on the Latism Twitter parties. He was such a nice man who inspired many Latinos in the blogosphere and social media. Unfortunately, he passed away unexpectedly a few months ago. This was a very emotional tear jerking moment since Yolanda, his widow and children came on to the stage.

Life sometimes  challenges us with difficult situations so that we can break free from old patterns that keep holding us back from what we really want to do. What happens when you are confronted with  a situation that requires actually letting go of someone you once considered a friend? It’s painful, right? This has happened to me with several people in the last couple of years and I do believe it was necessary for all of our growths. I am referring to platonic friendships in this case, not romantic relationships. When you are in a marriage or a committed intimate relationship, I believe a lot more effort should be made to work things out.

In friendships, there is an opportunity to grow together with good harmonious and open communication. But what if that communication doesn’t happen? Or what if that communications is a constant struggle? In this case, I believe it is necessary to let go so each person can live whatever they need to do on their own individual path. If you are growing in a certain way, and the other person has no connection at all with what you are doing or remotely interested in you, your projects or what is currently going on in your life, then why keep holding on? …
