Quién soy, voces desde la matrioska [Esp - Eng]
Las mujeres somos una especie de matrioska, aunque algunas con más versiones o capas. Yo no soy la excepción. Dentro de mí hay un mundo de mujeres.
Está la que perciben los otros, la que creen simple y transparente, como libro abierto (si supieran lo compleja que soy). Está la periodista (que no siempre encaja en los cánones), pero intenta parecer correcta y aterrizada. Está la poeta (esta me gusta mucho), siempre en el limbo, especialmente cuando descubre figuras en los árboles, las manchas de la pared, el cielo... Y va por ahí regando versos en cualquier trozo de papel (poemas desahogos), que en su mayoría nadie publica, pero no por eso menos auténticos. Está la profesora, que juega a ser estudiante también y termina convertida en amiga de sus alumnos, esos que a veces rebasan su edad y estatura. Está la madre, que abraza, disciplina, educa, protege... Porque cada día es un desafío y sus hijos son (por suerte) más fuerte que ella, pero no deja que lo noten. Y así otras.
Tengo que confesar que desterré de mi vida ciertas versiones de matrioskas más tóxicas que saludables: la tímida, la sumisa, la complaciente... Tengo que confesar que, para esa pregunta tan obvia y existencialista "¿Quién soy?" no tengo una respuesta definitiva. A veces ni yo misma me conozco. Dejo que la gente piense lo que quiera e intento actuar de acuerdo con lo que considere correcto en cada caso.
La mujer que soy no es la misma que fui hace diez años, ni mucho antes. He mirado demasiado. Sí creo que es leimotiv en la obra de mi vida tener buen corazón, que no significa necesariamente dejar que te coman las hormigas; cuestionármelo todo; analizar cada cosa desde múltiples aristas y defender mi criterio, aunque no coincida con la mayoría. A la mujer que soy le gusta andar con una piñata de libros, observar la naturaleza, estudiar el comportamiento humano, aprender de todo un poco, escuchar más que hablar y escribir, escribir siempre.
La mujer que soy se reinventa cada día (a veces demasiado). Pero si tuviera que resumir dos axiomas que marcan mi filosofía de vida fueran estos: no le hagas a los demás lo que no te gustaría que te hicieran y hay que convertir los obstáculos en oportunidades. Y tú, ¿también eres una matrioska?

Who I am, voices from the matrioska [Esp - ENG]
Women are a kind of matrioska, although some with more versions or layers. I am not the exception. Inside me there is a world of women.
There is the one that others perceive, the one they believe simple and transparent, like an open book (if they knew how complex I am). There is the journalist (who does not always fit into the canons), but tries to look correct and landed. There is the poet (I like her a lot), always in limbo, especially when she discovers figures in trees, the spots on the wall, the sky... And goes around watering verses on any piece of paper (poems off), which mostly nobody publishes, but not for that less authentic. There is the teacher, who plays student too and ends up becoming a friend of her students, those who sometimes exceed their age and height. There is the mother, who embraces, disciplines, educates, protects... Because every day is a challenge and her children are (luckily) stronger than she, but she doesn’t let them notice. And so others.
I must confess that I banished from my life certain versions of more toxic than healthy matrioskas: the shy, the submissive, the complacent... I have to confess that, for that so obvious and existentialist question "Who am I?" I do not have a definitive answer. Sometimes I don’t even know myself. I let people think what they want and try to act according to what I think is right in each case.
The woman I am is not the same as I was ten years ago, or even earlier. I have looked too much. Yes I think it is leimotiv in the work of my life to have a good heart, which does not necessarily mean letting you eat ants; question everything; analyze every thing from multiple edges and defend my judgment, even if it does not coincide with the majority. The woman I am likes to walk with a book piñata, observe nature, study human behavior, learn from everything a little, listen more than talk and write, always write.
The woman I am reinvents herself every day (sometimes too much). But if I had to sum up two axioms that mark my philosophy of life, these are: do not do to others what you would not like them to do to you and turn the obstacles into opportunities. And you, are you also a matrioska?
