“Lo peor de la discapacidad es que la gente la ve antes de verte a ti…” A estos bombones les encantan las fotos. Ahora que estuve en Chiapas tuve la oportunidad de visitar @aldeasmx donde viven jóvenes con discapacidades. Todos con historias, ganas de reír, de conocerte y compartir. La discrimination es algo que aún existe, debemos entender qué hay espacio para todos en nuestra sociedad, no hay razón para excluir a ningún sector…todos nos necesitamos. Dense la oportunidad de conocer la asociación y dejarse querer incondicionalmente por cada uno de ellos. Gracias a @misschiapasorg por todo su cariño y atenciones. Los quiero! ————————————- “The worst thing about disability is that people see it before they see you” This guys love taking photos. I had the opportunity to visit @aldeasmx on my last visit to Chiapas, where people with disabilities live. All of them want to share their story with you, they want to laugh and get to know you. Unfortunately, discrimination still exists, we need to understand that there ir enough room for everyone in our society, there is no reason for exclusion. Please give yourself time to get to know this organization and be unconditionally love by all of the kids that live there. Thank you @misschiapasorg for letting me be part of this project and for your hospitality! Love you! #bwap #missmexico #missworld

“By doing what you love you inspire and awake the hearts of others” Yesterday I spent the day in Oaxaca city and I had the opportunity to meet Angels of Light Dance Company, a group of talented kids with Down syndrome that dedicate their lives to perform the traditional Guelaguetza. I was completely blown away by their passion and their determination, from both the kids and their families, there is just so much we can learn if we open our hearts. Long live our history, our traditions! Let’s create a more inclusive society where everyone has the opportunity to find happiness! —————————————— “Haciendo lo que amas inspiras y enciendes el corazón de los demás” Ayer pase mi día en la ciudad de Oaxaca y tuve la oportunidad de conocer a la compañía de danza “Ángeles de Luz”, un grupo de chicos con síndrome de down que dedica su vida a representar los bailes típicos de la Guelaguetza. La pasión y el compromiso tanto de los niños como de la madres, hay tanto que podemos aprender de ellos si solo abrimos nuestro corazón. Larga vida a nuestras tradiciones! Creemos una sociedad más inclusiva donde todos tengan la oportunidad de ser felices! #missworld #missmexicoorg #beautywithspurpose
