Frases De Amor

Today we will learn some romantic words and phrases in Spanish. I had originally planned to write this article the weekend when Colombia celebrated "El Día de Amor y Amistad" (the day of love and friendship). In Colombia, the celebration of "El Día de Amor y Amistad" is kind of like Valentine's Day in the States.

I gave my "novia" (girlfriend) "chocolates" y "rosas." And a "peluche" (stuffed animal).

The "peluche" was a "peluche de Los Pitufos." Do you know who "Los Pitufos" are in English?

"Los Pitufos" is the Spanish word for "The Smurfs."

The weekend of "El Día de Amor y Amistad" "paseamos" (we went away) to a "pueblito" (little town). So I didn't get to send the email then. And considering that Latinos have a reputation for being hot blooded, intense, passionate lovers, an email covering this topic would be appropriate for "El Día de Amor y Amistad." So here are "10 frases románticas" that you can say to your "novio/a," (boyfriend/girlfriend), "amante" (lover), "esposo/a" (spouse).

Tumblr Love Quotes

If you aren't using Tumblr to build your blog, your brand and your business... you ARE being left behind.

Fact: Tumblr is quickly surpassing WordPress as the default blog platform for most emerging online entrepreneurs under the age of 25. It's also the absolute EASIEST way to create a community of people who are paying attention to your marketing message, and a community of clients (and CASH) as well.

The ONLY drawback of building your business blog on Tumblr?

It's a closed platform... meaning, rather than posting all of the content on your own web server, and using your own CMS of choice, with Tumblr... everything is baked into their own proprietary process.

(ironically, this is also one of the big ADVANTAGES of using Tumblr to build your blog as well, as there is very little learning curve, it's 100% free and you don't have to do anything other than register an email address to get started)

Personally, i use BOTH WordPress for my primary blog, and Tumblr for my community building blog, and I'm going to be totally honest with you, while I LOVE WordPress for a lot of reasons, for getting INSTANT eyeballs in front of your ideas, (and offers) there is nothing better than a Tumblr blog to go from zero to hero and make it happen in a hurry.

The FASTEST way to get friends and followers on Tumblr?

Very simple. Re-blog other peoples content for 60 minutes a day. Use the tags feature, and simply follow as many keywords as are relevant to your niche, market or industry. (or if you are in a hyper local business and are competing geographically, using geo friendly tags is REALLY effective as well)

Love Images

The image of love and romance is very common within art and has been for many centuries, right back to the rise of the Renaissance across Italy and then the rest of Europe. Art has always been about emotion and there is no stronger emotion than love, making it an ideal subject for any painting or drawing. This powerful emotion can have negative and positive impacts on everyone's lives and as such the images and paintings created from it depict a wide range in scenes which cover for example happy couples or the loneliness of someone after a relationship breakup.

The importance of love and romance has not changed in society for hundreds of years but the way in which it has been depicted in art has. Previously, traditional art meant that paintings would be highly decorative and complex pieces which marked the renaissance and baroque periods before newer art movements came about such as the Pre-Raphaelites, where artists were encouraged to centre in on a central figure which would normally be a glamorous woman sat by herself. JW Waterhouse was loosely connected to this art movement and he created paintings such as Tristan and Isolde.

Within the modern era art movements have become far more abstract and people's choices for images and pictures of love have changed considerably, with many going for simple digital ones that get their messages across in a very unsubtle way that fits into the much faster pace of society in general. E-cards have to a certain degree taken on traditional cards as a way of getting across romantic messages to a loved one but it is highly unlikely that they will ever actually replace them because printed cards suggest more of an effort has been made and this is important when receiving any romantic messages.

We can comfortably conclude that art and love have been close partners for many centuries, with artists tapping into the power of this emotion to produce impressive and memorable paintings that have also been greatly appreciated by the art mainstream public because of their own interest in this passionate emotion. The media continue to underline the importance of love to one's personal happiness and as such so much of people's behaviour in spent in and around finding or enjoying romance in various ways. People will go to extraordinary lengths in order to achieve the important feeling of love and so it is also highly appreciated from it's inclusion with in art.
