LOH #304: Practical Independence and a Touch of Blue

Estoy por acá sumándome al concurso de esta semana en Ladies of Hive. Quiero responder las preguntas que nos propuso nuestra querida @elizabethbit y aprovecho la oportunidad para invitar a mis compañeros @zhanavic69 y a @syllem.

Ahora si, voy a responder estas dos preguntas:

1️⃣ Si tuvieras tiempo y pudieras realizar un curso educativo sobre cualquier tema, ¿qué estudiarías y cómo utilizarías los conocimientos adquiridos?

Si pudiera elegir un curso para aprender algo completamente nuevo, sin duda me iría por la mecánica automotriz, abarcando desde lo más básico hasta lo más complejo.

El motivo principal es muy práctico: quiero saber defenderme si me quedo accidentada en la vía. No hay nada más fastidioso que quedar varada, tener que llamar a una grúa o cruzar los dedos para que alguien más resuelva un problema mecánico sencillo. Me frustra esa dependencia.

I'm here to join this week's contest on Ladies of Hive. I want to answer the questions posed by our dear @elizabethbit, and I’d like to take this opportunity to invite my colleagues @zhanavic69 and @syllem to join in.

Now, I’m going to answer these two questions:

1️⃣ If you had the time and could take an educational course on any topic, what would you study, and how would you use the knowledge you gained?

If I could choose a course to learn something completely new, I’d definitely go with automotive mechanics, covering everything from the basics to the most complex topics.

The main reason is very practical: I want to know how to handle things on my own if I break down on the road. There’s nothing more annoying than getting stranded, having to call a tow truck, or crossing my fingers that someone else will fix a simple mechanical problem. That dependence frustrates me.

Utilizaría estos conocimientos para ganar autonomía. Quiero levantar el capó, entender qué pasa allí dentro. Más allá de conectar la batería, limpiar los bornes, colocar el refrigerante, medir el aceite o ver algún cablecito suelto y saber dónde conectarlo, quiero poder identificar de dónde viene una falla y tener la capacidad de resolverla por mí misma. O, por lo menos, saber exactamente de qué me hablan en el taller para que no intenten verme la cara.

Al final, se trata de quitarle el misterio a las máquinas y tener el control de esas situaciones cotidianas donde una suele sentirse más vulnerable.

I would use this knowledge to gain autonomy. I want to lift the hood and understand what's going on in there. Beyond connecting the battery, cleaning the terminals, adding coolant, checking the oil, or seeing a loose wire and knowing where to plug it in, I want to be able to figure out where a failure is coming from and be capable of fixing it myself. Or, at least, know exactly what they're talking about at the repair shop so they don't try to take advantage of me.

At the end of the day, it's about taking the mystery out of machines and having control over those everyday situations where a person usually feels most vulnerable.

2️⃣ ¿Cuál es tu color favorito? Describe cómo te hace sentir cuando lo ves o estás cerca de él.

Mi color favorito es el azul. Y no es que me gustan todos los tons de azul, no. Me gusta el azul rey. Y, curiosamente, aunque no es el tono que predomina en mi guardarropa, es el que más me gusta. Para mí, el azul es el color de la esperanza.

Lo cumbre es que, aunque casi no tengo ropa de ese tono y en mi armario predomina el negro porque cuando estaba gordita me hacía, o eso creía yo, lucir más delgada, el azul es el color que más me gusta.

2️⃣ What’s your favorite color? Describe how it makes you feel when you see it or are around it.

My favorite color is blue. And it’s not that I like all shades of blue, no. I like royal blue. And, interestingly, even though it’s not the predominant shade in my wardrobe, it’s the one I like best. For me, blue is the color of hope.

The funny thing is that, even though I hardly have any clothes in that shade and black dominates my closet, because when I was chubby it made me, or so I thought, look thinner, blue is the color I like best.

Ya sea disfrutando la inmensidad del cielo en un día despejado, la profundidad del mar o simplemente un objeto cotidiano, la reacción es inmediata: siento paz mental.

Es como un respiro para los ojos. Por ejemplo, en mi casa todo lo que puedo tener azul, lo tengo azul: la pared de mi dormitorio es azul, mi vajilla es blanca con florecitas azules, mi bata de baño es azul, mis cubiertos son azules, mis copas de vino son azules.

Whether I’m enjoying the vastness of the sky on a clear day, the depth of the sea, or simply an everyday object, the reaction is immediate: I feel a sense of peace.

It’s like a breath of fresh air for my eyes. For example, at home, anything I can have in blue, I have in blue: my bedroom wall is blue, my dishware is white with little blue flowers, my bathrobe is blue, my silverware is blue, and my wine glasses are blue.

Vivimos en un ritmo donde todo corre y hay demasiado ruido visual, así que ver ese color me ayuda a desconectar del ajetreo diario y a despejar la cabeza.

El azul tiene una claridad que me transmite orden, frescura y una sensación de desahogo cuando las cosas se ponen pesadas. No se trata de ninguna conexión mística; simplemente es ese tono al que instintivamente le presto atención cuando necesito bajarle dos rayitas al estrés y encontrar un poco de equilibrio visual en medio de la rutina.

We live at such a fast pace, with so much visual noise, so seeing that color helps me disconnect from the daily hustle and clear my head.

Blue has a clarity that conveys order, freshness, and a sense of relief when things get overwhelming. It’s not about any mystical connection; it’s simply that shade I instinctively turn to when I need to dial back the stress a couple of notches and find a little visual balance in the midst of my routine.

    Y te queda muy bien el azul, se ve llamativo ese color intenso, a mi me gusta mucho, pero también por estar gordita uso bastante el negro. Sin duda saber de todo un poco es básico y sobre los carros es importante, nos puede sacar de apuros. Excelente semana. Un abrazo.

    And blue looks great on you; that intense color is striking. I like it a lot, but since I'm a little overweight, I also wear black quite often. Knowing a little bit about everything is definitely essential, and knowing about cars is important; it can get us out of a bind. Have a great week! Hugs

    Someone told me if you put your mind to anything you can do it, so nothing is like a man's job or sort, if you want to go for it, then you should.

  • Automotive mechanics is a fine and practical trade skill. My younger son is an apprentice auto mechanic and he always offers to tune my car up, check the wipers and rotate the tires for me so I don't have to spend the cash for maintenance. I remember learning to change the oil and oil filter, the air filter, properly assess the radiator fluid, and topping it up if needed. Fixing cars can get expensive easily, learning how your car works is a great ideal @purrix 🚗 Vroom, vroom!

    Aprender mecánica automotriz es súper útil, nunca hubiera pensado en hacer un curso como ese, pero leyendo tu post realmente tienes toda la razón 🤔 aunque me pregunto, yo lo haría? No creo 🫤 En cuanto al color azul, si, es realmente hermoso, no es mi preferido ahora, pero es un color que nunca pasa desapercibido, el mar y el cielo son de tonos azules y los dos son hermosos para contemplar 😊

    Learning automotive mechanics is super useful; I never would have thought about taking a course like that, but after reading your post, you’re absolutely right 🤔. Although I wonder—would I actually do it? I don't think so 🫤. As for the color blue—yes, it’s truly beautiful. It’s not my personal favorite right now, but it’s a color that never goes unnoticed; the sea and the sky are shades of blue, and both are beautiful to gaze at 😊.

    Being a nurse is so awesome, to give comfort to those who are afraid, hurting or just needing a hug.

    Royal Blue is almost a purple blue and a royal color. Thank you for sharing and have a lovely day! !LADY
