pienso en ti

cada día pienso en ti

pienso un poco más en ti

(Shakira en Amor en los Tiempos del Cólera)

amor en tiempos de cólera

a veces yo también confundo el amor con cólera.

(en honor a GGM)

yo no rezo (2)

(aunque he de aceptar que ´ta cabr*n)

yo no rezo

yo no rezo para pedir a Dios que me otorgue lo que quiero
o que cumpla mis deseos
o que pase el examen
o el chico que me gusta me llame para invitarme a salir.
yo no rezo para que la humanidad viva sin guerra
o se acabe el hambre
o los huracanes no lleguen tan fuerte.
yo no rezo para tener un golpe de buena suerte y volverme millonaria
ni para que ese hombre vuelva a quererme.

Hace tiempo descubrí que es mejor pedirle a Dios que me ilumine

para saber qué hacer

para que el Amor de mi Vida y yo sepamos reconocernos

para entender y aceptar lo que sucede

para discernir la decisión a tomar

y hacer mi mejor esfuerzo

y dejar la rezadera para dar Gracias.

steering wheel

I love driving. no, no,no, I mean I *LOVE* driving. It gives me the sense of control and freedom that I need and truly enjoy. Driving is my pleasure, my treat, my passion. Oddly enough, I have always known that I may die in a car accident. I don´t care. In that case, that would be well worth it. When I was a child (2-4-6 years old) I constantly dreamed that I was dying in a car accident. It´s ok. I´ve learnt to cope with that. In any case, I love driving and I will do it for as long as I can. I miss my car as much as I miss driving him (it´s a him) and having the freedom to escape and go wherever I want and pass by the roads I want and have control of my own route and my own speed.

In a world where I have no car

and I cannot handle the gear

and possess no control of things

nor the pace of life,

I am considering to leave the steering wheel

and take the passenger seat.

Maybe it´s not that bad;

I may even enjoy the ride.

summer is back

and wasps and bees and hayfever
and random episodes.
today, coming back from work, a guy stopped me on the road and asked me for directions. This is pretty normal to me, given that apparently I wear the "I AM A TOURGUIDE" sign on my forehead. Anyway, after the whole explanation, he said: well I am actually not looking for New College, I was just thinking of a way to talk to you and it´s the only thing I could think of. I saw you, you are very pretty and wanted to meet you. I´m T. by the way.
WTF.

la leggenda del pianista sull'oceano

I cried when I heard the music.

I cried even more when I watched the film.

Ennio, eres grande!

what now my love?

en este `inche fango, no veo señal!

...watching my dreams turn to ashes

and my hopes turn into bits of clay.

(Frankie Blue Eyes)

un asalto de felicidad

Alegría

I see a spark of life shining, Alegría!

I hear a young minstrel sing, Alegría!

Beautiful, roaring scream

of joy and sorrow

so extreme.

There is love in me raging

Alegría!

a joyous, magical feeling.

(cirque du soleil)

letting it flow

the only thing I ask is to let me be.

but hell it´s difficult to let others be!

lose control.

let go.

(breathe in, breathe out)

let be...

about ys and js

OF COURSE I sang "yolly miller" instead of the "jolly miller".

quite a jolly accent I´ve got

handle with care

I come with instructions:
1. Let me be myself and appreciate my crazyness.
2. Be proud of me and don´t be afraid to show it to the world.
3. Remind ME of how important I am for you.
4. Don´t leave me on the edge; don´t put me in your "just in case" box.
5. I am very fragile; please Handle With Care.

It is *that* easy. In return, you can expect this and even more.

amor se llama juego

amor se llama el juego en el que un par de ciegos juegan a hacerse daño.

y cada vez más tú

y cada vez más yo

can´t believe what I´m doing.

pero estoy siendo yo y eso me gusta :)

inesperadamente

... y de repente me di cuenta que mis problemas tienen

otro nombre y diferente apellido.

y sea lo que sea o pase lo que pase,
eso me dibuja una sonrisa en la cara.

universo

(Universum - C. Flammarion, Holzschnitt, Paris 1988, Kolorit : Heikenwaelder Hugo, Wien 1998)

y al acordarme del Universo

y Su Inmensidad

y sus múltiples misterios

y las variadas teorías que tratan de explicarlo

y Su Grandiosidad,

me acuerdo de lo pequeña que soy y lo minúsculo que mis problemas se vuelven.
