World upside down

Who wouldn’t like to continue in the other Life, after this one? It has already been said about it, as to be the first one there, one must be the last one here, in this life, and serve all the others with the greatest humbleness and simplicity.

Blessed be both, humbleness and simplicity, as they reach all places.

Remembering the daydream | Recordando la ensoñación

Remembering the daydream | Recordando la ensoñación

It is the memory, that memory of some lived nice moment, that appears in our mind spontaneously, when we need to breath, that air, that moment.
… that memory …
It is these memories the ones that define to ourselves who we are.

Not living in myself I live, she said, praising death as a freeing of the soul, bounded in our body. I die because I do not die, she said. And in this daily death, she found the greatest bright of Life.
At the entrance of the convent of Saint Teresa, in Avila, it seems as if the tree reflects her poem, wanting to go to the heavens, from the more earthly convent.
Live poetry.

Happy Christmas!

Thursday December 24th, 2009

It’s curious, I’ve got the feeling that there are many things that are remaining behind. Maybe due to haste, because of how quick this society lives, and even more in a year like this, at all levels. I must say I like certain habits, and certain traditions. Mostly, because they have some associated human values.

And speaking about values, I think this society runs. A lot. But without knowing where it is running to. There is no good wind for a boat if the destination isn’t known.

I think these moments and these days should be of reflection, to think of these things, invariable with changes and with the the very human being, … which are simplicity, kindness, not to complicate our own life (pffff, this), not to complicate life to others (pffff, also this).

I think this society needs a lot, a simplicity and sensitiveness that precisely lacks.

Christmas is not just one day. I don’t think it’s about being happy one day and to forget it the rest of the days. I think it should reflect instead an attitude, even though it takes an effort, but that indeed provides its rewards.

For whoever that reads this, and for who don’t, … I hope that Simplicity, Hope and Happiness shine in you. You will provoke in others s well simplicity, also hope, and also happiness. After all, it must have been these some of the big feelings that were present about 2000 years ago, … due to -the- reason of this feast, of tonight and tomorrow.

Peace and Good, and HAPPY CHRISTMAS!

Always in humanity, since we have consciousness, we need to ask about ourselves, about our origins, about life. There’s an endless thirst for Wisdom, for knowledge. For understanding why we are here and how is Life.

Footprints of Life

Footprints. It’s not about the physical ones, but about those other ones. Those that people leave us when a deep simplicity is shown, … as well as friendship. There’s space for so much in simplicity! These footprints, those memories, are well fixed inside us, in our so called “Book of Life”. They remain forever.
To Ana, to Luisa.

Reasons why I will go to the manifestation for Life, on October 17th, in Madrid

Saturday October 17th, 2009

Red rose / Rosa rojaRazones por las que iré a la manifestación por la Vida, del 17-O, en Madrid:

  • Favorece a negocios. Clínicas abortistas no reciben peticiones más allá de la semana 14 de embarazo. La ley permitirá abortos hasta la semana 14, precisamente.
  • Antes de esta ley ya se hacía aborto, sin demasiado control, pero sin abusar. Si se hacía así, ¿por qué es necesaria esta ley? ¿Hasta la semana 14?
  • Si una mujer no está preparada para el matrimonio a los 16 años, tampoco lo está para abortar.
  • Las consecuencias psicológicas para la mujer están bien estudiadas, pudiendo haber hasta 9 problemas psicológicos, que pueden aparecer incluso pasados muchos años.
  • Creo que es una gravísima violación de los derechos humanos, el que gente que no ha nacido no pueda ni opinar. Ni tener voz.
  • No se trata de cuándo es vida. No va de eso. Se trata de que si no se interrumpe el proceso, … hay un ser humano nacido. Luego interrumpir el proceso es quitar la vida. En cualquier momento. Incluso con 1 sola semana.
  • En muchos países asiáticos, tienen tan claro que es el proceso el de la Vida, y no qué semana de embarazo, que cuentan los cumpleaños no desde el nacimiento, sino desde el momento de la concepción.
  • ¿Qué ha ocurrido para pasar del también socialista “póntelo, pónselo”, a animar al aborto sin avisar a los padres ni teniendo 16 años? ¿No hay suficiente “libertad sexual” con el “póntelo, pónselo”?
  • El aborto NO es un anticonceptivo.
  • La irresponsabilidad de la adolescencia no se debe fomentar. Rompe vidas.
  • Si un negocio obtiene dinero por el cuerpo de una menor de edad, … ¿no se puede considerar una forma de explotación infantil?
  • Si se puede considerar una forma de explotación infantil, ¿por qué tiene que ser con los impuestos de los españoles?
  • Estando en una crisis como la que estamos, ¿por qué no se destina el dinero de esos impuestos a reducir un poquito del astronómico déficit?
  • Entiendo que el socialismo está para favorecer al pueblo, a los trabajadores, a las clases media y baja. Entonces, … ¿por qué los más indefensos, -los no nacidos-, no tienen derecho a existir?
  • Si el socialismo favorece a las clases media y baja, ¿por qué esta ley dará indiscriminadamente dinero a unos pocos? ¿Y, con el dinero de todos los españoles?

En definitiva, no estoy de acuerdo por todos estos motivos y menos aún en una crisis de deflación, que mis impuestos se usen para obtener dinero de fomentar la irresponsabilidad adolescente, para beneficiar a unos pocos, obteniendo el dinero usando a menores de edad, y lo que es más grave, basados en cortar procesos de Vida. Es decir: matar.

I guess there isn’t such a thing as a bad place as to get in love, but there are always special places that easily remain in memory, due to their own special charm. As Sevilla.

I wonder how and why you got here. To this photograph. Maybe it was a little feeling of unknown? Wanting to know more? Like, what is it?.
It is said that curiosity killed the cat. I say it saved him :-)
