Llibertat

To seek freedom is the only driving force I know. Freedom is to fly off into that infinity out there. Freedom is to dissolve; to lift off; to be like the flame of a candle, which, in spite of being up against the light of a billion stars, remains intact, because it never pretended to be more than what it is: a mere candle.

Don Juan Matus, The Art of Dreaming

A toda cosa viviente se le ha otorgado el poder, si así lo desea, de buscar una apertura hacia la libertad y de pasar por ella. Es obvio para el vidente que ve esa apertura, y para las criaturas que pasan por ella, que el Aguila ha otorgado ese don a fin de perpetuar la conciencia.

El Don del Aguila

Chercher la liberté est la seule force motivante que je connaisse. La liberté de planer dans cette infinité là-bas. La liberté de dissoudre; de s'envoler; d'être comme la flamme d'une bougie, qui, bien qu'ayant à faire face à la lumière de milliards d'étoiles, reste intacte, car elle n'a jamais prétendu être plus que ce qu'elle est : une simple bougie.

Stopping By Woods On A Snowy Evening

Whose woods these are I think I know.
His house is in the village though;
He will not see me stopping here
To watch his woods fill up with snow.
My little horse must think it queer
To stop without a farmhouse near
Between the woods and frozen lake
The darkest evening of the year.
He gives his harness bells a shake
To ask if there is some mistake.
The only other sound's the sweep
Of easy wind and downy flake.
The woods are lovely, dark and deep.
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.

Por una decision, pido perdon

Una y otra vez me viene a la cabeza esa noche en la que tuve que elegir, ese punto de inflexion en que irremediablemente mi corazon, mi ser, mi alma se partio en dos, no por mal de amores como tan facilmente podria pensarse, sino por una decision dificil, una perdida contra una ganancia, cruda vida en constante equilibrio, escojer para dejar atras? porque? porque no tenerlo todo? Al fin aprendi que si deshechas algo de forma infame recibes tu merecido...que no puedes quebrar una estructura, un vinculo social sin recibir una triste contrapartida. Y me pregunto: no hay vuelta atras? Parate, escuchate, piensalo friamente, que quieres? A que apuntas? Piensa antes de romper con todo! Visceralidad imparable, instinto, impetu insaciable...tu mundo, tu ser por encima de todo, crees que sera siempre asi? Crees que podra seguir siendo este tu sino? preguntatelo una y mil veces, pero para cuando encuentres la respuesta cuantas cosas habras perdido? Pero por otra parte, a caso no has ganado? Incesante reciprocidad entre bien y mal, entre tener y no tener; para ganar hay que haber perdido...Infame balance vital que te muere y te mantiene con vida. Como combinar arrepentimiento y felicidad? Como fusionar antonimos? Que decidir y como? Que futuro? Quien puede tratar de imaginarse el futuro si a cada decision, por pequena que sea, tu vida toma otra direccion? Imparable y debil cuerpo humano cabalgado por su admirable y despreciable mente. Por una decision, pido perdon.

True

When I feed the poor, they call me a Saint.

When I ask why the poor have no food, they call me a communist.

Snow!!!

While I'm in Dublin, in the "cool" north, this happens in my parents place, in the south of Europe!! Crazy isn't it? But nice, really nice...And not strange, because every five years our lands are covered by thik coats of snow, which mixed with the fog creates a misty atmosphere. But unfortunately you can only appreciate this when you are not living there. Posted by Picasa

Individual thinkings about massive problems

Most people think that we can still have more and more, that there is still a gap to fill in the accumulation process, that there is still margin to improve our lifestyle. There is that general sensation that we have to grow permanently, surrounded by the feeling that the western society will always dominate. Well, I disagree. I think all developed countries had been reaching this ceiling, along the last 20 years, although there are still some exceptions such as Ireland. How can people think that in the future and with the real world situation (not the mediated one) we will be able to spend these amounts of money? How can politicians give us this false sensation that everything is going straight forward? How can people consume so much and so unconsciously? What can be in humanity’s mind to afford being so far from reality, so far from the Earth?? Ok, maybe I do not have the answer to all these questions, but one thing is clear: the free market capitalism does not help, a society leaded by huge corporations which have the ability to control media, money and politicians does not help, and, of course, pretending to have U.S. as a model neither. The same tools (media, money and politicians) could be use in a more tactful way, and, of course, never loosing the market rule. The point is looking for a knowledge society; is setting culture as a priority, and this means the elimination of all the massive media rainfall based on non-thinking distraction (which leads to conformism and unconsciousness). But eliminating the social control set by media (which is controlled at its time by huge corporations) would mean opening the eyes to all these sleeping people, to the consumerist mass. This would mean the elimination of the general sensation that everything is fine, this would mean people discovering they had been miss leaded for long time and they would see how messy the world is. This would mean change, in other words: revolution.
