I don't normally write these kind of threads and I am always saying this is not a good idea, but this time I am making an exception.

Robertico is back with us!! We don't know for how long, but as long as he wishes he will be at home with ussmile

Roberto, eres uno de nosotros y la familia te saluda y te da la bienvenida de vueltagrin

I was *this* close to doing this myself, but wasn't sure if I should. I'm glad you did! :-) - chaparrito, FEB 10, 2010

Thank you everybody. There's no greater feeling than to be loved and appreciated. The reason I left (and I have done this in two occasions) is because I am in a race against time, trying to fulfill a promise I made to God many years ago of establishing or building a Temple in Ecuador. I have worked with different espiritual organizations throughout my life...Hindus, Buddhist, Christians, New Age, Scientologists, you name it but I always end up burning my bridges with these people because even though I might not completely accept their beliefs I still find common ground for cooperation. The problem is that sooner or later I begin to feel asphyxiated by their doctrines, therefore I have decided to go solo. I am going to open up a place or whatever in Ecuador (God willing) and I'm going to give Yoga, meditation, chess and English for free (everything for free because they are very poor people) to start, and then I'm going to present a spiritual forum predominantly based on Christianity but in synthesis with other cultures and religions. So I'm going to be really busy preparing different topics I need to present to them when I finally make it there. Thank you all for all your caring.

Es muy noble lo que haces... Y pensaba, tantas doctrinas, tantas ideas, y al final lo único que importa es el amor... porque el amor mueve montañas: vas a lograrlo... Suerte en tu emprendimiento! - Benz, FEB 10, 2010

Welcome back, Robertico...we've missed you.

I think your goal of building a Temple in Ecuador is amazing and very honorable. I love that you're going to invite all religions and cultures to your new Temple to learn Yoga, meditation, chess, English, etc. Wow!!

It sounds very interesting. This family can't be absent from anyone and in fact, as you have seen, all of us waited for your coming back day after day. Certainly with the intelligence of Heidi, we can do more and more to improve our Spanish and English knowledge.
