The day that Rio stopped
















"The traffic stopped to see it" - said a carioca (a person who lives in Rio de Janeiro)

Phenomenon surprised visitors on the beach of São Conrado, Rio de Janeiro - Brazil, in the South Zone close to Leblon, Ipanema and Barra da Tijuca. Cold front should continue until Thursday, causing cloudy time.

We all have priorities in life, even that it means to give up of our dreams. I dont know still if I'll have to give up of all my dreams. Yes.. I Have found out that I still have some. But to move on it means leave the past, deleting useless things and just carry on the results to make us a better person and have that big and sincere smile on the face. I know that it is impossible to forget some of the worst experiences in our lives but we have to be opened to receive a new reality to find what is the best in us.

I hate anesthetics. But there is something wrong.. so wrong that I needed a professional to help me out. Depression doesnt go by itself. Sadness can pass away but a deep depression is awful. It changes who you are. I started again to take a medecine to quit this dicease. It seems that it wont have a cure. For so long Im feeling weird and bad experiences made it come out again. Well..I had the illusion that I was fealed. I was wrong. The doctor said that I will need at least 2 weeks to start feeling the effects of the medecine. At the same time Im doing many things to keep me busy. Gosh.. Im so cold inside as never before. I dont know why I have the impression that deep inside I still have some hope. Hope of what.. i dont know exactly.

Money, fake friends, we can get anytime. I just need to catch myself again and look around and realize that it is real.

So far away she goes. She doesnt know exactly where but she keeps going on. She cant stop. Die inside is the real death.

God, keep me alive. You never failed with me. But what or who God is? Let me find my star part inside of me again and shine again with a big smile.. whatever happens.

I dont mind if someone cares or not about me. I just want to meet myself again...whoever I'll be after all this.








Deleting...

Breaking the useless chains

Many things happening around the word.. good ones and......bad ones mostly. But how to change the world if we cant even change ourselves? People have theories about how to be good, they have a religion to see the rules but most never follow them.

But I can understand why people give up. I see them like the childrem that someday they were.. and they keep playing like kids as the world were a big playground. But in a playgroung always have the strongest and the weakest. There is the one who beats and the ones who are beaten.. The winner and the loser... just like the world we are living.

If you give up, thats fine. Theres a lot of people that cant handle life. But keep on your mind that it is always a new beggining.. in life.. or after that.

Im trying to be on track again inside myself. It is not a shame to confess a weakness. Even an warrior have hard times and feel fear as well.

Bad experiences will always happen.. but many of them can be avoided by us. Our weakness sometimes make us believe in bad character persons.

Try to be free of your expectations. Enjoy what you have.

Be your best friend.

Words of Wisdom

What is happening around the world and with our planet is too much to be ignored. I remember the letter of the Chief Seattle to the USA President Franklin Pierce in 1855 (or 1851, 1854 as it has been said along the years):

"I am a savage and do not understand any other way. I have seen a thousand rotting buffaloes on the prairie, left by the white man who shot them from a passing train. I am a savage and do not understand how the smoking iron horse can be made more important than the buffalo that we kill only to stay alive.

What is man without the beasts? If all the beasts were gone, man would die from a great loneliness of the spirit. For whatever happens to the beasts, soon happens to man. All things are connected."

"Teach your children that we have taught our children that the earth is our mother. Whatever befalls the earth befalls the sons of earth. If men spit upon the ground, they spit upon themselves. This we know; the earth does not belong to man; man belongs to the earth. This we know. All things are connected like the blood which unites one family. All things are connected.

Even the white man, whose God walks and talks with him as friend to friend, cannot be exempt from the common destiny. We may be brothers after all. We shall see. One thing we know which the white man may one day discover; our God is the same God.

You may think now that you own Him as you wish to own our land; but you cannot. He is the God of man, and His compassion is equal for the red man and the white. The earth is precious to Him, and to harm the earth is to heap contempt on its creator. The whites too shall pass; perhaps sooner than all other tribes. Contaminate your bed and you will one night suffocate in your own waste.

But in your perishing you will shine brightly fired by the strength of the God who brought you to this land and for some special purpose gave you dominion over this land and over the red man.

That destiny is a mystery to us, for we do not understand when the buffalo are all slaughtered, the wild horses are tamed, the secret corners of the forest heavy with the scent of many men and the view of the ripe hills blotted by talking wires.

Where is the thicket? Gone. Where is the eagle? Gone.

The end of living and the beginning of survival."

If the letter is a true document or not, doesnt matter, but it was written in those times like the words of a prophet, in this case, someone (maybe a "savage"?) with a view centuries beyond than others.

Save The World



   















Last April 2, was gathered in London, 19 of the 20 countries of the G20, for the Global reform. Everything is explained at the Explanatory guide to the communiqué at the London Summit 2009 site.

As the economist Hamish McRae said "This summit won't save the world, but at least it has made an important start", we all hope the same.
