Me again...

What is the approximate time it takes the applications to be evaluated ?

How would I know when I am rejected ? (or accepted, eventually).

Thank you, River !

Mil gracias por dedicar tu precioso tiempo para contestarme !

Ya no era necesario, fue un acto de bondad.

Siguiendo vuestras instrucciones, apliqué mediante el formulario como Forum Supporter en Trauma Support Community.

Con el mismo fin, en ese Foro, tomé contacto con Brit, quien fue super-amistosa y alentadora.

Aún así­ me siento un poco perdido, no tengo idea de cuánto vale mi CV de novato para roles tan importantes y críticos. Pedí­ un Mentor de Roles (increible las cosas que existen acá!)

Cambiando de tema, vi tu perfil y me quedé apabullado.

Pensé que "Acá cerca vive esta Super-Chica gigantesca, ese huracán de bondad, constructora de infinidad de refugios para miradas de almas lastimadas, que, sosteniendo una carrera tremendamente exigente, como es Fí­sica, y trabajando en apoyo escolar, hizo el maravilloso regalo, el enorme sacrificio de quien sabe cuantas miles y miles de horas de su vida para dar esperanza y paz a quienes más las necesitan."

Me emocioné mucho.

Gracias, gracias, gracias, gracias, Mel.

También me intrigó que una especialista en Fí­sica se oriente a Neurociencias.

Me recordó la teorÃía tan controversial del fí­sico inglés Roger Penrose sobre cómo se genera la Conciencia en el cerebro, por medio de fenómenos de mecánica cuántica en "micro-tábulos" de las neuronas.

Es para ese lado que ves la conexión entre Física y Cerebro ?

Por mi parte, me interesa mucho la Fí­sica, y la Conciencia (misterio de misterios),

Trabajé varios años (voluntario) en un proyecto de apoyo escolar a gran escala (responsable de fundraising y gestión económica del proyecto), donde aprendí­ mucho sobre pedagogí­a, y apoyo a niños de sectores vulnerables.

Y tengo un amigo neurocirujano (jefe de servicio en el Posadas), que me enseñó mucho del Cerebro .

Así que tengo elementos para apreciar tu inmenso valor como persona, como agente de cambio, y también como cientí­fica.

Muchos fundamentos para sostener que sos la persona más maravillosa que existe !!!!

Quedo a tu disposición para lo que te pueda servir.

Y espero volver a tener el inmenso honor de cruzarme contigo en este sitio.

Te felicito, te agradezco, y te deseo lo mejor,

Marcelo.

Gracias Mel !

Muchas gracias por tu generoso ofrecimiento !

Quiero consultarte muchas cosas, pero tengo que ordenar mis pensamientos.

No quiero hacerte perder tiempo. Sé que estás muy, muy ocupada con responsabilidades importantes en esta comunidad.

Pero unas palabras tuyas serían importantes para mi.

Te agradezco nuevamente tu generosidad,

Hasta pronto,

Marcelo

Dear River: I read in the Mentors section, filtering by Forum Track, that you are "taking mentees who wants to learn more about forums" I would like to ask you whether you would accept me as my Mentor for my Forum support development. As you know, I have very recently been accepted as Forum Supporter, serving in the Trauma Community. I would like to follow the “Forum Track” in 7 Cups, as I am more of a forum-person, and I find Forums can be powerful and still have a great potential for improvement and growth in 7 Cups. I have some concerns regarding Forum practice, like how to increase visibility to the Members who would benefit most, how to increase participation, retention, etc. I very much look forward to your answer. Thank you ! Kind regards, Marcelo.
