Friends and Family

My family in general is very transcendentalist/romantic. We are 5, my parents, my brother, and my sister. 
We love God and believe in him a lot. We see him as the center of the universe. Our father, our creator, the one who´s behind all that surrounds us.
We love nature and we appreciate it. Everytime we see someone cutting a tree we feel bad. My mom always says that Torreon is extremely hot because of so much pavement in the streets. We need fresh trees to give us oxygen and shade.
She also says that whatever you do to nature, it will come back to you, in karma sense. For example, my grandparents sold their house 10 years ago and that house, my mom says, was built with lots of love. My grandma has chosen all the trees for the backyard. The house had mango trees, orange, plum, tangerine, an lemon trees. Well, the buyer didn´t want the backyard garden, so she destroyed all the trees. She promised she would take care of them, but she lied. Being a 40 something year old woman, she got to be like 2 years in a wheelchair because of a strange impediment on her walking. 3 years later her son died tragically in a car accident falling into a ravine.
We believe all that happened to her because she destroyed all of the house´s nature. The backyard and the front yard.
As you can see my family and I are true lovers of nature and we try to decipher all the messages that it tries to tell us. We love ranches and it is our dream to have one. I think it would be wonderful to live far away from the city, where there´s people that brag all the time and think that the universe rotates around them. I don´t like that.
My parents are romanticists because they always teach us to follow our feelings. Of course, the good ones. You don´t need to feel forced to do something. You need to enjoy it and feel free in it.
My mother´s exact words are: do what your heart dictates you to do. In other words, follow your heart.
To find true contemplation you need to be close to nature, in silence. Not with so many people in your life that don´t even let you concentrate on your own. It´s like if you were living someone else´s life. Live your life because it´s yours and will sooner or later stop to be. Life is very short and time flies.
