[#Pride] ▪︎ Happiness 💚 “.. The reason why you can't get rid of me, is because I'm so amazingly proud of you under all circumstances. When life gives us lemons, we build a business of lemonade. 'Zuuuur maar toch heel erg lekker'. Happiness is not in our circumstances, bur in our mindset. Happiness is not an agreement it is an attitude. It is an attitude that transpires through our mindset, actions and most importantly our faith that keeps us moving. As long as integrity and honesty is our most important way of living, we sure that honesty brings short-term challenges but long-term happiness. …” ― Gwendell Mercelina Jr. @wenshow © ________________ 📸 · · · 📶 • #MySister • #Leadership • #MyEverything • #2Sep • #2Sep • #Politics • #Politician • #Curaçao • #DutchKingdom • #BanHendelKuGwendell • #MemberOfParliament • #Politico • #Parlamentario • #Politika • #GlobalCitizen • #PurposeDriven • #TaMiHendenan • #GwendellMercelina • #wenshow • #tenemiskèrpi • #curacao🇨🇼 • #gnius • #keepmesharp (at Roma, Italia / Rome, Italy) https://www.instagram.com/p/CTUSR_frqYn/?utm_medium=tumblr

[#Bonaire🇧🇶 ] ▪︎Day of Bonaire “.. Tera di solo i suave bientu, Patria orguyoso salí fo’i laman. Pueblo humilde sèmper kontentu, Di un kondukta tur parti gabá.

[#TheArtOfBeing] ▪︎ The Imperfect-Perfect Human Gifts 🔮 “.. Being passionate in a field that has to do so much with human beings, their urge for power and interests. 🔋 Hidden behind a face in which it's hard to tell who has your back, from who has it long enough just to stab you in it... 🧐 Everyone suffers at least one bad betrayal in their lifetime, a politician I think will experience that on a daily basis - and no one will tell you that in advance. ✔ At the same time it is what unites us because for there to be betrayal, there would have to have been trust first. ⏳ The trick is not to let it destroy your trust in others when that happens. Don’t let them take that peace from you. ☮ …” ― Gwendell Mercelina, Jr. © ________________ 📸 • @wenshow · · · 📶 • #Humanity • #TrustAnyway • # • #27Jan • #Jan27 • #Politics • #Politician • #WisdomSpeaks • #ProfoundTouch • #JustKeepOnSwimming • #BanHendelKuGwendell • #MemberOfParliament • #Politico • #Parlamentario • #Politika • #GlobalCitizen • #PurposeDriven • #TaMiHendenan • #GwendellMercelina • #wenshow • #tenemiskèrpi • #Curaçao🇨🇼 • #gnius • #keepmesharp (at Willemstad, Curaçao) https://www.instagram.com/p/CZP4-0ku8ok/?utm_medium=tumblr

[#TenemiGradesido] ▪︎ 33 🥳🙏🏾💪🏾🌎🇨🇼 “.. À l'aurore, armés d'une ardente patience, nous entrerons dans l'âge splendide. You all form to be part of my parents wildest dreams, a child born of light’s wonderful secret. In the intention of my mother to gift her first born the name Jesus, but to honor my dad with sharing our names got combined in that essence. Wakin' up every day makes me grateful and thankful and call upon a wonderful soul to shine bright inside of this being. To pass power to heal the sun’s broken heart, and power to restore the moon’s vision too. The divine name Elohim appears 33 times in the story of creation in the opening chapters of Genesis, the second level of heaven in Buddhism is named Trāyastriṃśa, meaning "of the 33 (gods)." And 33 is Jesus' traditional age when he was crucified and resurrected. This one is for the champions, because the road may always seem impossible or difficult, but we all are winners in divine presence on earth each day we still have strength, we celebrate. I thank, and serve my 33 years of life for all the soldiers rooting for me, carrying on with such a being in their life, for opening doors, having a listening ear, understanding and keeping me sharp to stay strong and true to myself. Nothing of me is possible without your presence in it. Danki pa boso presensia den mi bida. 💚🙏🏾 …” ― Gwendell Mercelina Jr. @wenshow © ________________ 📸 • @sandervnhuizen · · · 📶 • #Birthdate • #Leadership • #33birthday • #23July • #July23 • #Politics • #Politician • #Curaçao • #DutchKingdom • #BanHendelKuGwendell • #MemberOfParliament • #Politico • #Parlamentario • #Politika • #GlobalCitizen • #PurposeDriven • #TaMiHendenan • #GwendellMercelina • #wenshow • #tenemiskèrpi • #curacao🇨🇼 • #gnius • #keepmesharp (at Willemstad, Curaçao) https://www.instagram.com/p/CRqxZrnr3fk/?utm_medium=tumblr

[#BanHèndel]▪︎Political Animal 🇪🇺 🌎 🇨🇼 “.. The man was given the moral capacity to distinguish the good from the lesser good. But it was also given the desire to communicate with others, to cooperate, to connect and to design. Within the purpose, we realize that our key on a constant base is to stay true to ourselves, have faith and engage in dialogue with mutual respect. Because even-though many of us with this calling know that within our elected function we must always be willing to place the interest of a larger community above any self-advantageous purpose or claim. It is given to see how overblown the excessive amount of pride, ambition, and egotistical personalities can tarnish the ethos of the common good. Universal truths are nothing but illusions, but one should never dismiss the honesty by clouding the vision of the mind. One gains knowledge by promoting respect, integrity and virtue, not with tricks of lies and deception. Men must be free, the most purest form of love. May the language of our path be sustainable and strong to build long lasting institutions made of values and hope. Reaffirming each day that politics is not my career, but it is my purpose! …” ― Gwendell Mercelina Jr. @wenshow © ________________ 📸 @europeanparliament · · · 📶 • #EuropeanParliament • #Leadership • #PNP2021 • #11June • #June11 • #Politics • #Politician • #Curaçao • #DutchKingdom • #BanHendelKuGwendell • #MemberOfParliament • #Politico • #Parlamentario • #Politika • #GlobalCitizen • #PurposeDriven • #TaMiHendenan • #GwendellMercelina • #wenshow • #tenemiskèrpi • #curacao🇨🇼 • #gnius • #keepmesharp (at European Parliament) https://www.instagram.com/p/CRL_1GDrsQ4/?utm_medium=tumblr

[#BanHèndel] • (Jesus) 🐲🙏🏾💚 “.. When mom gave me the Christian name Jesus, she gifted her first-born to the Lord as the bible says. After all, Jesus didn’t just ascend to his Father, he served a mission for a greater good of all humanity - he stuck around for a while, appearing to the disciples in order to give their eyes, their ears, their hearts a chance to adjust to the risen Christ. In a time when nothing for the eyes, ears or hearts are normal anymore; for the divine everything is already set to be so. As a journey for our faith in greatness, because we are destined to be part of excellence. We too have that time to adjust to whatever the new normal is like.  This Easter, two times in a pandemic lockdown, takes time for our collective spiritual, mental and physical healing. And within the resurrection of a better us, a new us, it requires new ways and standards of being and behaving in the world. Emerging new roads and methods. But they will be different, and they’ll take time to get used to.  What we know that we have is, our faith, our life, and our responsability to be love in everything we preach, proclaim and act. #BlessedEaster …” ― Gwendell Mercelina, Jr. @wenshow © ________________________ · · · 📶 • #Easter2021 • #PNP2021 • #4Apr • #Apr4 • #Politics • #Politician • #Curaçao • #kurasonbèrdè • #banhendelkugwendell • #senator • #hubentutnashonal • #generashonbèrdè • #senator • #globalcitizen • #iamnumberfour • #tamihendenan • #gwendellmercelina • #wenshow • #tenemiskèrpi • #curacao🇨🇼 • #gnius • #keepmesharp https://www.instagram.com/p/CNQ9CMiL7tH/?igshid=x6vz4fz8lxkl
