Puede que sea una zona empobrecida, afectada por la adicci\u00f3n a las drogas, la industria del carb\u00f3n poco saludable, la falta de empleo y de recursos, la mala calidad de la comida y la desintegraci\u00f3n de la comunidad. Pero esta zona no es la \u00fanica. En todo el pa\u00eds surgen los mismos problemas, desde las tierras tribales hasta los entornos urbanos, si la gente no siente que es importante en este mundo, inevitablemente sufre desesperanza y depresi\u00f3n. Cualquier lugar donde persista la pobreza, se encuentran familias que se enfrentan a los problemas asociados a ella. Pero los aspectos m\u00e1s bonitos pueden pasar desapercibidos si no se mira lo suficientemente cerca. <\/p>\n<p>Una de las cosas que siempre me recuerdan mi hogar es la sensaci\u00f3n del tiempo, y c\u00f3mo cambia de ritmo en las ciudades m\u00e1s grandes y se ralentiza en los lugares m\u00e1s rurales. Parece que la gente entiende el tiempo de manera diferente y aprenden a valorar cada minuto del d\u00eda, tanto si est\u00e1 lleno de emoci\u00f3n y agitaci\u00f3n como si no. Me acuerdo de mi abuelo que sol\u00eda sentarse durante horas en la terraza del jard\u00edn disfrutando del mundo que lo rodeaba. Cuando era ni\u00f1o preguntaba: \u201c\u00bfQu\u00e9 est\u00e1s haciendo aqu\u00ed?\u201d Siempre esperaba que en la vida siempre estar\u00edas haciendo algo y, de hecho, probablemente estaba ocupado pensando en mi propio pr\u00f3ximo paso. Pero su respuesta siempre era la misma: con una carcajada: \u201cMirando el tr\u00e1fico\u201d. La gracia de ese comentario es que aunque la casa daba a una carretera de dos carriles que se extend\u00eda suavemente hasta llegar a la colina, apenas hab\u00eda tr\u00e1fico. <\/p>\n<p>Crec\u00ed en el \u201ctiempo de Kentucky\u201d y aprend\u00ed a valorar simplemente hacer cosas constantemente. Las peque\u00f1as cosas de la vida, los sonidos del mundo que me rodeaba, la brisa que sopla entre las copas de los \u00e1rboles. Son cosas especiales que f\u00e1cilmente podemos perder de vista si no aprendemos a apreciarlas. Mis viajes y mi trabajo a lo largo de los a\u00f1os me han llevado a muchos lugares y los que me dijeron que ten\u00edan m\u00e1s problemas son los que de hecho me dieron m\u00e1s alegr\u00eda y me recordaron m\u00e1s a casa. Desde las tierras ind\u00edgenas en Dakota del Sur, donde las mujeres con las que trabajaba me dijeron desde el principio que ten\u00eda que acostumbrarme al \u201ctiempo ind\u00edgena\u201d, hasta Nicaragua, donde el clima puede cambiar los planes r\u00e1pidamente. Si el tiempo es constante, \u00bfc\u00f3mo puede su percepci\u00f3n ser tan diferente en todo el mundo? <\/p>\n<p>El a\u00f1o pasado en Nicaragua, me un\u00ed a un equipo de desconocidos mientras viaj\u00e1bamos al peque\u00f1o pa\u00eds centroamericano para instalar energ\u00eda solar en un pueblo rural y conocer otra parte del mundo gracias al programa GRID Alternatives International. Durante toda la semana, la gente comentaba sobre el \u201ctiempo de Nicaragua\u201d, advirti\u00e9ndonos que no nos preocup\u00e1ramos si las cosas no segu\u00edan siempre el camino previsto. Durante la semana todos aprendimos a dejar ir y dejar que el calendario se adaptara a la situaci\u00f3n, a dejar que los d\u00edas flu\u00edan sin restricciones, a re\u00edr, a trabajar duro y a entender que lo que ser\u00e1 ser\u00e1. Fue una experiencia poderosa ver c\u00f3mo un grupo se integraba con una cultura y un concepto diferentes del tiempo. <\/p>\n<p>Mis recuerdos favoritos est\u00e1n relacionados con la lluvia y el agua de este clima, que a menudo cambia los planes m\u00e1s concretos. Nos embarcamos en los \u00e1rboles, con equipajes cargados que a menudo contienen una cantidad casi garantizada de objetos innecesarios. Yo mismo inclu\u00edme en esta traves\u00eda. Comenz\u00f3 una caminata bastante divertida por el camino fangoso, y despu\u00e9s de una hora en el barro, que a veces llegaba a una profundidad de 12 pulgadas, el sucio lodo que tragaba el pie y que robaba los zapatos se hizo evidente. Est\u00e1bamos exhaustos y sudando, y aunque la caminata en s\u00ed misma no era necesariamente aterradora, el barro implacable y el agua casi insuportable. Pero lo logramos, y todo lo que pudimos hacer fue ralentizarnos y tomar nuestro tiempo a lo largo del \u00fanico camino hacia el pueblo, mientras examin\u00e1bamos con los ojos cada paso para encontrar la posici\u00f3n \u00f3ptima de los pies. En un momento, mientras intentaba sacar el zapato de su trampa fangosa, mi pie se solt\u00f3, pero el zapato se qued\u00f3 atr\u00e1s. All\u00ed estaba yo, riendo a carcajadas, y el \u00fanico lugar donde encontrar la fuerza para levantarme era el pozo fangoso frente a m\u00ed o el paraje de cactus en el que me sentaba. <\/p>\n<p>M\u00e1s tarde esa semana, despu\u00e9s del almuerzo, consideramos la caminata de regreso a la cl\u00ednica, donde la instalaci\u00f3n solar estaba casi terminada. Pero de pronto el cielo se llen\u00f3 de nubes profundas y ricas. Se abalanzaban hacia nosotros y sent\u00edamos c\u00f3mo el aire se volv\u00eda pesado por la humedad. Esperamos. Y efectivamente se abrieron enormemente y lo que parec\u00eda ser toda la lluvia del a\u00f1o se precipit\u00f3 sobre la tranquila peque\u00f1a casa. Bajo el techo de una especie de sala de estar al aire libre, vi salir de sus lechos fangosos los cerdos que hasta ahora hab\u00edan pasado inadvertidos. He visto menos entusiasmo en los ni\u00f1os cuando se les dejaba jugar en el recreo. Y, habiendo poco experiencia con los cerdos, observ\u00e9 con asombro c\u00f3mo se divagaban alegremente por el suelo fangoso, saltando y ronroneando. Las rocas se volv\u00edan a desplomar, el barro se arremolina en el aire y se peleaban entre s\u00ed en la lluvia. <\/p>\n<p>Considero que estos conceptos de tiempo y vida pueden aplicarse a todos nosotros, independientemente de d\u00f3nde trabajemos o qu\u00e9 hagamos. Disfrutar de las cosas simples, ralentizar el ritmo, aprender a dejar ir y ver el mundo tal como es. Durante el a\u00f1o pasado como miembro de Solarcorp en Colorado, tuve el privilegio de trabajar con un grupo de personas que comprenden este concepto. La \u201ccultura GRID\u201d nos recuerda disfrutar de nuestras vidas. Si quieres tiempo libre, deber\u00edas aprovecharlo. Trabajar duro pero no olvidar disfrutarlo a lo largo del camino. Los propietarios de viviendas y los voluntarios tambi\u00e9n lo comprenden. Y todos sabemos que, con las muchas partes y piezas que intervienen en una instalaci\u00f3n, se requiere un cierto grado de flexibilidad. As\u00ed que la pr\u00f3xima vez que me encuentre frustrado porque las cosas no salen seg\u00fan lo previsto, preguntar\u00e9: \u201c\u00bfVivo en el tiempo de Nica?\u201d <\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In Nicaragua last year, I joined a team of strangers as we traveled to the small Central American country to install solar for a rural village and see another part of the world with the GRID Alternatives International Program.

Fue una experiencia poderosa ver c\u00f3mo un grupo se integraba con una cultura y un concepto diferentes del tiempo.","breadcrumb":{"@id":"https:\/\/gridalternatives.org\/es\/the-current\/grid-culture-right-at-home-in-nicaragua\/#breadcrumb"},"inLanguage":"es","potentialAction":[{"@type":"ReadAction","target":["https:\/\/gridalternatives.org\/es\/the-current\/grid-culture-right-at-home-in-nicaragua\/"]}]},{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"es","@id":"https:\/\/gridalternatives.org\/es\/the-current\/grid-culture-right-at-home-in-nicaragua\/#primaryimage","url":"https:\/\/gridalternatives.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/Arstides-Family.jpg","contentUrl":"https:\/\/gridalternatives.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/Arstides-Family.jpg","width":698,"height":544,"caption":"Four people standing together outdoors under trees in Nicaragua, smiling at camera"},{"@type":"BreadcrumbList","@id":"https:\/\/gridalternatives.org\/es\/the-current\/grid-culture-right-at-home-in-nicaragua\/#breadcrumb","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Home","item":"https:\/\/gridalternatives.org\/"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"GRID Culture Right at Home in Nicaragua"}]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https:\/\/gridalternatives.org\/#website","url":"https:\/\/gridalternatives.org\/","name":"GRID Alternatives","description":"","publisher":{"@id":"https:\/\/gridalternatives.org\/#organization"},"potentialAction":[{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https:\/\/gridalternatives.org\/?s={search_term_string}"},"query-input":{"@type":"PropertyValueSpecification","valueRequired":true,"valueName":"search_term_string"}}],"inLanguage":"es"},{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https:\/\/gridalternatives.org\/#organization","name":"GRID Alternatives","url":"https:\/\/gridalternatives.org\/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"es","@id":"https:\/\/gridalternatives.org\/#\/schema\/logo\/image\/","url":"https:\/\/gridalternatives.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/MAIN_Yellow-and-Dark-Green-Horizontal-scaled.png","contentUrl":"https:\/\/gridalternatives.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/MAIN_Yellow-and-Dark-Green-Horizontal-scaled.png","width":2560,"height":1280,"caption":"GRID Alternatives"},"image":{"@id":"https:\/\/gridalternatives.org\/#\/schema\/logo\/image\/"},"sameAs":["https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/gridalternatives\/","https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/user\/gridalternatives","https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/gridalternatives\/?hl=en"]}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/gridalternatives.org\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2905","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/gridalternatives.org\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/gridalternatives.org\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gridalternatives.org\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2905"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/gridalternatives.org\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2905\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":8728,"href":"https:\/\/gridalternatives.org\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2905\/revisions\/8728"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gridalternatives.org\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2906"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/gridalternatives.org\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2905"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gridalternatives.org\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2905"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gridalternatives.org\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2905"},{"taxonomy":"audience","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gridalternatives.org\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/audience?post=2905"},{"taxonomy":"content-type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gridalternatives.org\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/content-type?post=2905"},{"taxonomy":"focus-area","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gridalternatives.org\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/focus-area?post=2905"},{"taxonomy":"region","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gridalternatives.org\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/region?post=2905"},{"taxonomy":"series","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gridalternatives.org\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/series?post=2905"},{"taxonomy":"content-author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gridalternatives.org\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/content-author?post=2905"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
