My interest in writing dates back to my middle school years. I recall filling entire notebooks with information. Among the material I wrote are stories, points of view, anecdotes, and personal experiences that have shaped my life and continue to do so. Later, and during my college years, I decided to publish the material as a blog. As a result of accumulating a large following as well as positive feedback and petitions, I ventured into the world of podcasting. I transformed my written content into an audio experience for each episode. It is here that you have found me, and I will remain there so long as you find my work interesting. It is with great pleasure that I welcome you to my creative realm and into the depths of my unpredictable thoughts. Hope you enjoy! — Ralph

Ever wondered how a single demigod could shape the world, tame the sun, and bring fire to humanity? Join us as we unravel the incredible exploits of Maui, the legendary Polynesian hero, whose epic journey through Hawaiian folklore teaches us invaluable lessons about courage, ingenuity, and perseverance. From his miraculous birth and upbringing by the ocean god Tangaroa to his daring quests involving his magical fish hook, Manaia Kalani, Maui's story is one of strength, cunning, and unwavering determination.
Listen to tales of how Maui fished up the Hawaiian islands, harnessed the power of the sun to extend the days, and cleverly secured the gift of fire for humanity. Yet, despite his heroic feats, Maui's ultimate quest for immortality brings a poignant reminder of the limits even heroes face. Through captivating storytelling, we celebrate Maui’s enduring legacy and reflect on the lasting impact one individual can have on the world. Tune in for a journey through the heart of Hawaiian mythology that will leave you with a renewed sense of wonder and inspiration.

Nightmares are horrible. It is a mystery as to why they sometimes find us. Perhaps, there may be an explanation to some as it relates to why sometimes go through these, but in my case, I had no clue the reason for this one. One that woke me up in the middle of the night because of its intensity. I simply woke up and redacted the event, and now, I have condensed it into this episode for you to hear. — Ralph

Thoughtful in The Dark - Los Sueños de Fey: La Chica en La Morgue -  (3 de 5)

Desde pequeño, recuerdo que mi padre, Rafael Cortes, solía tener sueños que el consideraba extraños y hasta complicados para habilidad de interpretarlos. En más de una ocasión me compartió varios de estos sueños los cuales no solamente me intrigaban, pero también encontraba fascinante.
Ya he compartido en este podcast la triste noticia de que mi querido viejo, Fey, partió el pasado mes de agosto en medio de una campaña que valientemente peleó contra su deficiencia cardíaca.
Esta semana llegó a mi poder una libreta donde el redacto sus últimos 5 sueños junto con la interpretación personal que le adjudicó a cada uno de estos.
Con motivo de lo que celebramos como la Semana Santa, deseo compartirles una pequeña serie de estos cinco sueños que tuvo mi viejo en episodios individuales durante la semana. Compartiré uno diario que comenzaran desde este lunes 11 de abril, hasta el viernes 15 de abril.
Mi viejo era un ser humano humilde e introvertido. El nunca hizo alarde de estas visiones y sueños que tuvo con nadie para evitar ser visto de una manera errónea. El siempre prefirió mantener su silencio. Yo creo firmemente, que el mundo debe saber la calidad de hombre que mi viejo era y que indiscutiblemente era, un ángel terrenal entre nosotros. ¡Es hora!
¡Que Dios les continúe bendiciendo!
Este episodio se titula: La Chica en La Morgue.

The subject of forgiving is a not an easy one to deal with, because of the individual experiences we all have had to endure at certain times. But history tells us that perhaps, addressing the issue results in far better results and a higher quality of life, than ignoring it as we grow older! This episode is a short story that deals with that. I hope you like it!

A lonely man, a vivid imagination and the desire to love, were significant scenarios to sit down and write these lines. An idea to love all the way through the night and way into the dawn.

I am a firm believer that creative minds, like the one God has blessed me with, are able to receive inspiration from the venues least expected. This entry was inspired by a tweet I read from an account I follow in the social platform Twitter®. Let me share with you everything I felt when I saw her tweet.

Escrito en el 2016, Huellas fue el resultado de un paseo por el parque. Sentado debajo de un árbol, meditaba en esto que comparto con ustedes.

Sports can sometimes teach us valuable lessons. I would have never imagined, that a simple purchase of hat and a deep sense of curiosity for a game would define me in so many ways.

What compels an experienced crew to vanish into thin air, leaving their ship in perfect condition? Dive into the mystifying saga of the Mary Celeste, a vessel whose enigmatic abandonment has puzzled maritime enthusiasts for over a century. We promise an in-depth exploration of the theories, from the plausible to the fantastical, that attempt to explain the fate of Captain Benjamin S. Briggs, his family, and the crew. As we navigate through the ship's history and ill-fated journey, we spotlight the intriguing details of its discovery by the British vessel Dei Gratia, which found the Mary Celeste eerily adrift without a soul onboard.
Our episode dissects the lives of those onboard, painting a vivid picture of their backgrounds and expertise. By examining the ship's final log entry and the untouched state of its provisions and cargo, we delve into the myriad of explanations offered over the years—piracy, mutiny, natural disaster, and even sea monsters. As the tale unfolds, listeners will ponder how this 'ghost ship' continued to sail under different owners until its controversial end in 1885. Join us in unraveling one of maritime history's most enduring mysteries, as we separate fact from fiction and piece together the clues that remain.
