Ringworm And Cheerleading

October 17

October 17, twelve twenty a.m. to Morro de Sao Paulo, tropical island 60 miles from Salvador de Bahia.
We left on the notes of the Italian situation and of distorted feeling that comes from here ... will
that in recent weeks Giancarlo and I have already become part of this Brazilian community, willy-nilly we had to deal with new life and its effects on us.
and take it to Italy, objectively, it is easier ....!
But a great poet, Pablo Neruda said that "what matters is not born, but born again!"
Well, here we have the fortunate to be able to afford to be reborn every day, choosing to be, perhaps, different than the day before!
To find an excuse to grow a few best part of ourselves!
And on this side there is the flow of people who come to our inn sun!
Today, for example, despite a drunken driving made us miss a couple of Norwegians who had also booked our working life and social well has been enriched by a Yoga teacher in his fifties, Washington DC (as he says);
a thirty-five blonde English Giancarla storm of questions, forcing her to enormous efforts to improvise Anglophone / Anglophone;
a plump and smiling giovanotto brasiliano (credo “Paulista”…) in ferie!
Con loro due esili ragazzette argentine, in giro con lo zaino in spalla.
Domani chissà!?
Un buon materiale umano su cui curiosare, scambiandosi impressioni e sparando ipotesi circa i nostri sorridenti visitatori.
E’ un sensazione strana e finanche struggente quella di conoscere delle persone differentissime da te, abituarti alla loro quotidiana presenza e poi sentirti dire che da li a poco fanno il check out, e insomma ripartono; ti ridanno le chiavi, gli asciugamani, e chissà quando e se ci si rivede!
Non capita tutti i giorni ma spesso! Ed è una emozione grande, ogni volta.
E poi ci sono le persone care che ti vengono find, as a mom Elmuccia, just off once more for home after a brief but intense stay at our comfortable accommodations.
I think the place is like and now fully understand our happiness,
certain is that the Morro did not own the best, in these 10 days ....
Too many unexpected rain and gray have tarnished the virtues of this remote outpost ... ..
not enough, fortunately, to prevent you from appreciating the true nature that makes it so special.
Paradoxically, indeed, how you spend your stay is marked by bad weather and some mishaps are the very people who, in one form or another, the more we preserve the affection.
We, however, wait until tomorrow for another day of sun and work
and to close the day with the latest weekly training capoeira ....!
And then there's the night that the island does not see too often
players ... but this time, maybe ... ..!
Oh well, whatever
has made the time to embrace the bed and Giancarlo, who is sunk.
Blown away by the echo of songs and dances that will continue until the morning and that, if you take the beach, coming up at our parties, I draw you a warm embrace in tropical and, to those who will be pleased, we send our affectionately call when they want turn our thoughts to us and to these places.
Goodnight,
E.

Ps: Welcome Philip!

Birthday Greetings In Arabic And Wife

A bit 'of sound meditation ... ... ..!

Hard times, at least from the parts of the house ...
And if we do not write much here is because we have many things to do and little time, but also because you pass the desire to tell people you love that you are here by God, that everything is great, etc ... while in Italy plunged into a crisis (first of all cultural and emotional)
unprecedented ... Nothing is easy, mind you!
In this paradise, however, we started to do the job completely Again, in a language we do not know, struggling with fierce competition from people who have long inseritissime instead in the tourism market, surrounded by others who, by the mere fact of being European, they consider us like hens laying golden eggs that seek to tap possible ...
short walk and is not a living from tourism (especially Brazilian European and U.S.) we also suffer from economic contractions that are taking place worldwide, from which, however, this country is all ' anything but immune.
The point is that we left already aware of this, but even more frightened by the prospect of staying in a country, Italy, affection by spreading depression, in our opinion generated by the sense of powerlessness that now afflicts the majority of the talking heads of our knowledge.
Why is our feeling, unlike in many other European countries and beyond, the gap between life and the real needs of our fellow compared to what they tell us and decisions are taken in our name, has become abysmal!
Although perhaps it was always like that, today more than ever we feel is not represented by anyone, we are certain that those who command us, at all levels, our interests and does not care about the welfare of the community, but responds only purposes of conservation of one caste or other reference.
This infection, which undermines the immune system of any joint office, is endemic: the ability to enlist new recruits, among those who until recently said they did not tolerate this state of affairs is such that it allowed this horror to be entered in any nook and cranny of modern life.
the warranty (which most times is just an illusion) to the effect that the interests of its parrocchietta by the most dishonest, to perpetuate situations of advantage and privilege against the mass
caused a huge rift between those who live (or would want to live) a normal life without work, family, just sacrifici e meritati riposi, e quanti, invece, svenderebbero la madre ai beduini, figurarsi i propri principi, pur di continuare a far parte di quella collettività ristretta la cui esistenza, perpetrata per mezzo dell’omertà, della cooptazione, della corruzione, consente a costoro di vivere al di sopra di quanto impegno e capacità effettive gli permetterebbero.
Tutto questo lo sapevamo: che l’Italia non sia mai riuscita a staccarsi da una mentalità feudale dove il ruolo del signorotto è ricoperto, a seconda dei casi, dalla mezza tacca calatasi in politica, dall’uomo d’ordine, dal prelato affarista,
non è una novità.
Ma allora ci si chiede come mai questa mentalità mafiosa has penetrated so deeply that now, even when we go to a meeting of the condo we feel that these fifteen, there are always three or four that long and know that in one way or another they will fall back on other charges burglarizing this simple and inevitable gathering of any honors.
For sociologists and historians with a response that has the claim to explain fully what happened, to guess the chance to show what all this will take us!
But the feeling is that, in principle, have done everything to distract us, to convince us that it is important to live well, would have, possess, use, and can afford to throw;
a time, then, that this form of deception has come into our minds by an apparent distribution of wealth that way we could not afford,
has reached the point where it is clear to everyone how these drugs collectively, which has so far confined no longer able to discern what they really want and that is our right to obtain (ie the common good) can not be given further:
predator was mainly because we now become daily was looted.
And then comes into play FEAR:
scary at all because, leading us to think that our neighbor, that people outside of our own group's interests, that il diverso rappresenti il pericolo da rifuggire, ci privano della nostra unica speranza.
Spezzando il sottile filo della solidarietà, precludendo alle genti il privilegio di poter ascoltare chi ha già imparato la lezione o, più spesso, possiede ancora una semplicità ed una purezza che gli fa rigettare questa isteria collettiva,
contribuisce al protrarsi dei privilegi appannaggio delle categorie che questa PAURA contribuiscono ad alimentare e diffondere.
E a nostro modesto avviso gli untori non sono solo quanti, in barba a nostro diritto di sapere ed essere informati, detengono il controllo dell’istruzione o della propaganda;
il danno forse più grave è operato da parte di quanti (tanti) perpetuano questi methods in order to maintain a small, tiny edge over its similar, poison the wells with such behavior, pretending not to know that the cost of a glass of water fraudulently extract involves the progressive damage of the aquifer that tomorrow would quench everyone, including poisoner.
But fear is that the individual man, which is given the opportunity to jump the queue, to steal their collective shoulder to the weight of the yoke, he does not care, so he is harassed by the anxiety of having to give up, he and of his own, and to some of the bells and whistles of the many stupid things the possession of which the illusion of being able to fill gaps much larger. Perhaps our most
good luck, right now, is not to live on a beautiful beach, to see the pousada that works well, happy and carefree people to attend as on holiday, our greatest fortune is to have regained confidence, that they had evidence that, with all the difficulties of the case (which, I repeat, are neither few nor recently), giving himself to do, whatever the newspapers signs to the contrary, trusting in its neighbor, can regain the peace and banish fear.
Just look at how things feel, so what appears clear that often those most of us (and maybe it fraudulently obtaining) lives in fear of what's is in turn subtracted, to give up the seat a few tables allows us to go to bed untroubled, that those who, instead tramples on others just to satisfy this desire for escape from their miserable reality, no better and no be envied, has just renewed its policy of loyalty to being unhappy and alone.
When we know we will be able to also put the lie to our daily overpowering, with a few words and beliefs of our serenity scream that the emperor is naked and who, with this stupid behavior as well as useless, dig the grave in which the community collapses today deserves only our outrage and the resulting social stigma, the only real deterrent to commit any iniquity, as the valence criminal ethics. Unite and Resist
,
not listen to the nonsense that bombards us with propaganda and, most importantly, do not be afraid
:
would do their game.
hug you all,
especially to those who, because of this mechanism
bastard leech,
are deprived of their jobs or see up the price of their mortgage;
those who, like our dear friend and Lindaura his children, may pay the price of this collective fear because of the ebony of her skin;
those who, like our friends from Vicenza Andrea and Sabrina, are denied to the sound of club the opportunity to decide on the future their community or even to express an opinion on this.
not be afraid.
