Casa Tiny
A dreamy small residence minutes away from Mexico’s lively Puerto Escondido, Casa Tiny makes for a charming retreat from the daily distractions.
In creating this project, architect Aranza Arino and director Claudio Sodi took inspiration from Henry David Thoreau‘s “Walden”, so it’s no surprise its modern minimalist interiors with rustic influences invites guests to embark on a voyage of spiritual discovery.
Otherwise, this petite isolated house has everything you need to relax in comfort and style, from a lovely dip pool and access to a private beach to a Zen garden and an excellent pizza oven.
Guests at Casa Tiny have privileged access to the more famous Casa Wabi and Hotel Escondido nearby.
A Girl Was So Unhappy In Her Relationship That It Cost Her Her Hair (8 pics)
Ashleigh Alqotaibi, 22, from Beighton, Sheffield, was in unhappy relationship. She admits to be “devastated” and even suicidal.
Being under heavy stress in her “toxic” relationship, she went bald in three months and was diagnosed with alopecia.
After realizing that her then-boyfriend was the source of her stress, she dumped him for her own sake in order to improve her well-being.
Some time later she met her fiancé John Robinson, 26, and her hair started to grow back just four months later. Now she has a head full of hair and a happy relationship.
Twin Boys Sell A Huge Teddy Bear But No One Stops By, Until Angelina Jolie Appears…
History is full of some incredible tales of persistence, from Robert the Bruce to others who have thrived in the face of adversity and constant setbacks. There is an underlying lesson here, which dictates that we should never give up when pursuing our life goals as our own determination and persistence can ultimately influence the course of our destiny.
The Are Also Everyday Examples that we Can Draw Inspiration from
Aside from historical events, there are everyday reminders of this important lesson. Take the example of twins Allen and Brandon, who one day were being given a lesson in entrepreneurship by their father Alexander. Having outgrown their huge, eight-foot tall teddy Big Bear, they were encouraged to sell it for the handsome sum of $50 (although they probably would have settled for less!)
Having waited outside for more than an hour, they could have been forgiven for becoming sullen or disheartened, as numerous cars passed and ignored them. Nobody seemed to care about their quest, as the world suddenly appeared as a cold and lonely place. Just as all seemed lost, however, a mysterious white Cadillac honed into view, before coming to a standstill beside the young entrepreneurs.
Out of Nowhere, an Angel Appeared
As the luxury car door opened, out stepped a mother with her small child. This was not just anyone woman, however, and as the twins’ parents focused they realised that the mysterious pair were in fact Angelina Jolie and her beloved child Shiloh. Incredibly, the boys didn’t even recognise her as she approached, as they were simply relieved to have found a potential buyer!
Of course, once Alexander explained Jolie’s role in the hit animated film Kung Fu Panda, the buys were wide-eyed with glee. As they nervously explained their proposition and asking price to Angelina, they expected her to haggle, so were stunned when she produced two gleaming $50 dollar notes from her purse and handed one to each child!
A Lesson in Kindness and Determination
While this is a wonderful story and an unexpected act of compassion from a huge, Hollywood star, its meaning goes far beyond this. It reinforces the importance of persistence in the face of disappointment and hardship, as determination alone can make our dreams come true. The truth is that you never know what fate may have in store for you around the corner, but the only way to discover this is to remain true to your goals and pursue them relentlessly!
