forgettable...

ai ai ai

isn't it awful when someone says hi and you have that clumsy smile cause you have no idea where in the earth u saw that person before? yeah... it has happened a lot lately. Maybe because in my job I get in contact with many different people every day or I'm just getting senile and my neurons don't work as before... or maybe, i just didnt give much importance to the person?
who knows...

I saw the movie "2012" sounds quite american with all that patriotism and the hero president who stays to die with people instead of taking place in the airplane that would get him safe... he even makes the last speech to the nation. so touching... lol "God bless America!"

...

I' d like to be more than just a passerby on Earth during this short period of time delimited by the day I was born and the day I'll succumb to the fatal event of life, death! Despite the effort, it's not easy to keep a thinking being before so much futile information that, irrefutably, populates the human mind. Internet, Radio, TV... a few sources of empty knowledge that fill our brains.
Questioning about the truths that have been imposed to us is an affront we aren't prepared to face. We are encouraged to think uniformly, following trends that make us just one more alienated in the crowed that is taking big strides to an existential abyss.

Stonehenge, pyramids, and other human creations of the same magnitude are a trace of a more spiritual life in a distant past when the human used to have a conection with nature, unthinkable today. Nowadays, with our thoughts focused only on ourselves, we are slowly loosing our sensitivity. We know the particles of something as small as an atom but we can't notice the pain we cause when we decide to stay away from someone who loves us.

Tolerance is gone. It has never been so increasing the number of people who would rather live alone than share their lives with someone else. The fear of ending life lonely gave raise to the fear of "lack of privacy.

Ironically, as I write this, someone interrupts my thoughts with an instant message. An ex coworker with a questionable character telling me with a Machiavellian pleasure that she has had an affair with a married guy for 2 years. That's the portrait of a society corrupted by excess of selfishness. The pursuit of a happiness that can cost the happiness of another.

I do not believe that perfection is an attribute of human beings but even so we shouldnt stop trying to be better people. I root for that our legacy for the future generations is not as complicated as building a pyramid but has similar greatness and be much more useful! The ability to love and care about other´s pain.

...

Eu queria ser bem mais do que um simples transeunte na Terra durante esse curto espaço de tempo delimitado pelo dia em que nasci e o dia em que irei sucumbir ao evento fatal da vida, a morte! Apesar do eforço não é fácil manter-se um ser pensante diante de tanta informação fútil que irremediavelmente povoa a mente humana. Internet, rádio, televisão... não são poucas as fontes de conhecimentos vazios que preenchem nossos cérebros. Questionar sobre as verdades que nos foram impostas é uma afronta a qual não fomos preparados para encarar. Somos incitados a pensar de maneira uniforme, seguindo tendências que nos tornam apenas mais um na multidão de alienados que caminha a passos largos para um abismo existencial.
Stonehenge, pirâmides, entre outras criações humanas de mesma magnitude são traços de uma vida mais espiritualizada em um passado remoto quando o ser humano possuía uma conexão com a natureza impensável nos dias atuais. Hoje, com os nossos pensamentos centrados apenas em nós mesmos, estamos aos poucos perdendo nossa sensibilidade. Possuímos máquinas capazes de prever um abalo císmico, ou de transmitir um evento para qualquer lugar do mundo via satélite mas não sabemos como fazer a diferença na vida de alguém ou não encontramos tempo para tal.
As pessoas não se toleram. Nunca foi tão crescente o número de pessoas que preferem viver sozinhas a dividir a vida com alguém. O medo de terminar a vida sem ninguém deu lugar ao medo da "falta de privacidade".
Ironicamente, enquanto escrevo estas linhas, alguém interrompe meu pensamento com uma mensagem instantânia. Uma ex colega de trabalho de caráter duvidoso me contando com um prazer maquiavélico que há dois anos mantém um caso com um homem casado. É esse o retrato de uma sociedade corrompida pelo excesso de egoísmo. A busca de uma felicidade que pode custar a felicidade do outro.
Não creio que a perfeição seja um atributo do ser humano mas nem por isso devemos parar de tentar ser pessoas melhores. Eu torço pra que o nosso legado para as gerações futuras não seja tão complicado como a construção de uma pirâmide mas que tenha semelhante grandeza e bem mais utilidade!!! a capacidade de amar e de se comover com a dor alheia.

Consequences of having fun...


My aunt and her belly



I just got the Good News. One more cousin has been born. A new inhabitant in this almost inhospitable place called Earth! A new passenger in this turbulent, but still amazing trip vulgarly known as Life!!! Wellcome dear!!!





My wish for motherhood has increased lately. Perhaps a warning from my body saying "hey, your gonna be out of time."


Thinking of having a life growing inside me fills my heart with a pleasure I've never felt before. Having a baby must be a different way of loving I havent tryed so far. The weird way of taking care of someone who fully needs my care without expecting any reward back. Maybe a spontaneous smiley... Funny thing is I'm more excited about feeling pregnant than taking care of a baby, which is the inevitable consequence. That must be part of the process of becoming a mother... maybe the maternal instinct emerges in stages?

anyway... something is missing to become possible my female urge...
