All About Cervical Mucus
Alex Rovira and Francesc Miralles
work together again after the success obtained with the book The labyrinth of happiness and do
now in the fable A heart full of stars
, a hopeful story that analyzes the unlimited power of love. Eros is the protagonist of a story featuring an orphaned boy who will fight to save the life of his partner, guided by the advice of a wise old woman. The small has to locate nine people and make with scraps of clothing a heart. But for this to work you need to find the secret of unlimited love, hidden in the depths of his soul. The book describes different dimensions of love and portrays the hero as the authors unknown to all of us and aroused by love. To Rovira and Miralles, love means caring, respect and express. Three verbs that summarize the essence a story to try to give 360 \u200b\u200bdegree trident beaten Eros, Philia and Agape. - A heart full of stars is a book that is to focus on love. What do you think you have brought this work to all that have been saying for centuries about the art of love?
-Alex Rovira: This summer I read the book
Burn
days of James Salter, and is a fantasy novel about sexual love, erotic love, the love of friends. It is clear that our book is no novel, because part of a fable and is much shorter track, but it amused us to reflect on this kind we call love, which is Eros, Philia and Agape, but also on subjects of love, such as culture, friendship, nature. A reflection on the different degrees of love and giving more explicit format, not childish, but almost. This would be the main difference I think we've made, love is essentially caring, is to express it, but there are infinite love objects that surround us and which often are not aware. Burn
- What role does love believe in the pursuit of personal happiness? Francesc Miralles: Everything, if you observe people, we see that the people who have a more sour or bitter, often people do not have a good relationship and do not have many friends. Humans are essentially social, and needs to have good relations and have links to their side. As the poet John Donne's love is very important because people who know how to give and receive, are the most balanced out there.
- It costs us more than before to give and receive love and getting that balance which I speak?
-AR: I think privacy is the subject outstanding human being but historically, as we build with a dialectic between love and fear, that is, to the extent that I love you and show me vulnerable, I can do damage, so I close. This happens now and forever. To me only happiness I like happiness, is a more naked. People who live life with joy and consciously know that happiness is to make others happy and this implies an openness that is often complicated. Probably so, and perhaps do an extrapolation that is not correct, the maximum that we wish human beings is to love and knowing we are loved. In short we spend our lives looking for this, either through recognition of our work, the search of tenderness and caress of the person you love, child, or a hug from a friend. The history of humanity is defined by a dialectic between the adrenaline and oxytocin, the hormone of the defense and fear, and happiness and openness. "There's a moment in the book in which a character utters these words:" Love does not exist to make us happy but to show how much we resist. " Could this be one of the greatest errors of mankind?
-AR: It is a completely true statement. I think love moves us to be happy but you realize what you love when you have capacity to long-suffering, that is, to reiterate in adversity. Want to be with that person, there are a thousand difficulties, and can not, but the want, and you're there. Suddenly you are aware of what you are capable of resisting love, and you do from the pleasurable feeling, but from adversity, and that's when you realize what gives meaning to life. Viktor Frankl said, "Why you not suicide? Because there is someone I love
- Do you believe in the limitless love and, if so, what are the keys to cultivate?
-FM: Love is unlimited in what are the powers of a person. The bases are different as to cultivate the kind of love, because what we have done in this book is to dissect the different categories of love. To sum it up a bit I think it would open up floodgates and let the feelings come out and train, cultivate empathy, be able to get in the other's world and live their problems as if they were your own, and with these general rules any kind of love will be helpful. The problem is when love turns into a cyst and an addiction, or a reprimand or an exchange. Love has to be free, meaning, and must be given just because you want to thank something, love is a form of appreciation for life.
-AR: For me that would be the icon of love is boundless love for children. I to that of unconditional love I have not arrived. Even with my partner that I love her emotional balance, that is why I give than to receive. But with children, particularly when they are young plants will not give his life for them or give everything to prevent any sort. Is instinctive, perhaps genetics is so smart that we have scheduled for the meal, is what makes the species to survive. As for the formula to cultivate among adults, I think the healthiest and most natural exercise is the vocation of service, the will to give to others. -shelled in his book up to ten different dimensions of love but one comes to the conclusion that the most important thing is to love yourself ...

-FM: Yes, because hardly a person who mistreats herself will the tools to value others. The others are a mirror of what we are. The person who is respectful to herself, her body, with your emotions, your self-esteem, is ready to be with others. People who have had a particularly tough childhood or have a lack of fit with reality, have great difficulty relating to others because they do not understand themselves, and therefore do not understand others.
"They also believe that no one of these dimensions is what binds all others, that says that not only have to give love, but you also have to express it. Do we live in a crisis communication sentimental?
-AR: I think there are many topics about this issue because we could also say that in Victorian times people would go to a brutal repression or that Catholic morality has been an inhibition of the expression and spontaneity very important dogmas have hurt. I think there is a cultural context that there are some media, but the technology has not done as much damage as they say. It is clear that I do not think you do by clicking a friend, that Facebook is a great fallacy, is a perversion. I think there is everything, do not know make a trend, what do you think Francesc we better or worse?

-FM: Changes in the communication vehicles have to multiply the contacts but they lose intensity. One hundred years ago, a person had three or four friends and I had a very personal track on the changes occurring in his life, had a personal involvement in his life. Today people are telling you, I have 350 friends on facebook, but what you really know these people?
"The protagonists of his story are children, one of which has to do an act psicomágico to save the life of her friend. Is that something that can only be done at that age in which one is more innocent and may believe that anything is possible without losing hope?
-AR: Yes, somehow the children show the free spirit without condition naivety. Andersen is a phrase we quote often because we love. He says that "the stories are written for children to sleep and for adults to wake up." The children are already awake, in the sense of connecting with the essential, connect the positive and genuine. I think we lose the happiness and the ability to love as we are killing the child based interior disappointments of life and to the extent that cynicism is corrupting us. Intelligence without love is speculation. Many adults speculate everything but love, because they have lost love. If we want a just world is to put intelligence in the service of love. When you read in the book that is capable of leading the child will not question it, is credible, if he did an adult would think is crazy.
-A child who is encountering different characters on their quest and give you vital tips. I do not know if these would be those "yellow people" to which Albert Espinosa referred to in his book The Yellow World
, without knowing people helps us and gives many things our adventure of life ...

-FM: Yes, although this is a long story, no longer a novel in which the protagonist is going through a series of tests and each any conclusions drawn from them or some learning. It is an allegory of what happens in life where we met with people who are important and if we find them is because we had to show something.
"I know that for you, Alex, this is a book especially important to the point that the story started following a personal experience as a result of the illness of his newborn daughter and samples of care that we provided from Japan. What have you learned during this process?

-AR: This book was born from a very organic way. I told Frank the experience of the teddy bear that I got from Japan for my daughter and in that same conversation came the possibility of making a story using the analogy that each cut of clothes symbolize a dimension of love. Every book you write no longer a part of the alchemy of a hard and painful fact of life. In my case has always been. With Frank I have a special friend with whom I so much fun writing this book comes together and everything is always a process easy and organic.
-FM: Yes, it's easy to write a book with Alex because when we are talking and the topic we are passionate about, it connects and sees everything very clearly. Each character will tell you exactly what it provides, the messages you give it all worked perfectly.
