Summer’s heat lingered well into September this year. The mercury soared to 97°F (36.1°C) on the 8th day of the month and 87°F (30.6°C) on the 18th. Yet, despite the sometimes furnace-like breath of stubborn summer, the days were growing steadily shorter. Each morning, the sun seemed to sleep a little longer. Each evening, the sun departed a little earlier. Each minute of daylight became a little more precious. Each hour of darkness seemed to stretch beyond what should have been allotted. Th…

Il arrive qu'une porte s'ouvre là où les yeux ne rencontraient que l'inanité. De l'oublié, du déserté. Alors la vie s'infiltre dans les moindres fragments pour irriguer les veines d'une matière transformée, retournée à l'âge de pierre afin d'y inventer une autre histoire, d'entreprendre un autre voyage : celui d'une eau qui se souviendrait de sa source.

Hay una premisa importante en las relaciones humanas, que si no se cumple se puede correr el riesgo de cometer el gran error de opinar y de prejuzgar antes de ver la realidad tal cual es... Siempre que se opine hay que tener una visión muy objetiva de cualquier acontecimiento acontecido de lo contrario podemos caer en el entrometimiento y en la intromisión algo que he detestado siempre. "Vive y deja vivir" cada uno vive su vida como quiere y le da la gana, NADIE repito NADIE tiene por qu…

My neighbors tell me that, if christianity didn't tell you that you're a sinner and guilty of something -- not sure exactly what -- then it wouldn't have expanded so successfully and, also, lots of people might be happier and others left unpersecuted.
