Quote of the Day — Octavia Butler
When vision fails
Direction is lost.
When direction is lost
Purpose may be forgotten.
When purpose is forgotten
Emotion rules alone.
When emotion rules alone,
Destruction… destruction.

Me gustó mucho esta cita
As someone who has been studying Spanish for a while, I occasionally get frustrated with my language learning journey. As one of my instructors said to me, “you will always speak Spanish with a Gringo accent, but if your pronunciation and grammar are correct, don’t worry about it. The idea is to communicate.” That I can do as long as we are not chatting about the theory of relativity, the philosophy of Descartes or other such esoteric subjects.
In my case that Gringo accent has a strong southern component to it…picture Gomer Pyle speaking Spanish, instead of “Golly, Sargent”, it is, “¡Caramba! Sargento.” I came across this quote that I can really relate to.
“Do you know what a foreign accent is? It’s a sign of bravery.” — Amy Chua
