me, italiano, love, happiness
...
Mi sento alleviato... e felice.
Dopo tanto tempo, mi sono svegliato questa mattina e quello che ho pensato prima è stato: 'Devo spedire una email, oggi, adesso... in fretta'.
E l'ho fatta! Non ci posso credere...
*sospiro*
Vi lascio, perche vado ad ascoltare il concerto per violino, archi e cembalo del ritico RV 256 di Vivaldi...
Sono contento... Gli estremi sono sempre in contatto.
P.S. Scusatemi... il mio italiano non è migliorato con il tempo... è sparito... hehehe

Well... no, it is already quite difficult to determine what a 'step' is, so this is not the next step in the human evolution, but it is actually an idea I gathered from reading different sources... so basically is just focused in this analogy I am building up right now...
If a single-celullar being took millions of years to learn that grouping armoniously with other single-celled organisms was both a huge advantage and a high risk, but that has been worth it; how much time will take us, humans as 'individuals', to realize that competition is counter-productive, and that the next step in our own evolution is to bind ourselves as one being, as our cells did millions of years ago?
Of course, we can work in group, and as a team too, but to be honest, we are behaving more like rats, than like a cohesive group or team: at the first sign of trouble, the rats leave the ship abandoned to ill fortune. A cell cannot do that... to be part of a multi-cellular entity, means that the cell has to have ultimate commitment: If the cell next to me dies, I die as well...............; but we, as humans, just wander around like single-cellular automata, learnt, by force, that competition is the way to go, that the one that has more money/love/friends/success/internal knowledge of itself/whatever adjective or sustantive you want to put here, is the best

El día pasó, pero la noche siempre me esperó desde la eternidad, siempre.
P.S. A ver, a ver, ¿quién puede descifrar este gatovillo de tigrecuerdos? Un tarro de Nutella para el/la que lo haga... hehehehe..

Llueve, y una brisa fresca recorre las calles. Abro el balcón, en espera de un colorido olor a tierra, y las pequeñas gotas de rocío apenas rozan mi piel cuando se desvanecen en el calor de mi cuerpo.
Su fuerza me inunda, el agua me envuelve lentamente, y millones de columnas de luz se levantan ante mis ojos, transmitiendo su chi dentro de mi. Se adaptan, viven, escudriñan y se apoderan de mi espíritu felino, cuando en un momento la oscuridad empieza a vaciarme. Un elenco de puntos me observa desde el espacio, escondidos detrás de una cortina de humo: renovada en las manos del tiempo y el movimiento perenne.
Secuenciales ondas se van ahora apoderando de la circunstancia; la fuerza se queda, pero el agua sigue su camino, indiferente a mí, prefiere el suelo, sucio e inmundo, porque para ella es igual. Un pedacito de ella se queda en mi mente y yo supongo: una gota, hace la diferencia.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
It rains, and a fresh stream of air rushes down the streets. I open the balcony, hoping for the return of a colorful smell of earth, and the rain barely touches my skin when it vanishes in the heat of my body.
Its strength floods me, water embraces me slowly, and million of columns of light raise in my eyes, transferring their chi into me. They adapt, live, wander and steal my feline spirit, when at a certain time, darkness starts my own void. A group of points watches the spectacle from the space, hidden behind an smoke curtain: renewed from the hands of time and the prennial movement.
Sequential waves start filling the scene; the strenght remains, but water continues its flow, indifferent to me, prefers the ground, filthy and dirty, because its the same for it. A bit of water remains in my mind and I suppose: one drop, makes the difference.

Life is such a complicated matter that it is good to teach the self to take a very narrow point of view for every single topic that crosses the mind, but that is actually another subject. Ideas spin now around the concept of movement in human nature. As it has been known for centuries, human beings are doomed to curiosity, contrary to the idea that it is feline territory.
Whenever there is a need for something, there is a reaction from the mind to its surroundings, and so, it seems that there is some kind of fight between needs and facts; but if there is a need is because the facts are not fullfilling the needs, so it is ended again in the old egg versus chicken question. Is it then the concept of need that pushes forward? Needs are, however, commonly mistaken with desires, unfotunately tergiversating the whole view. Emotions, Ideals, Health and Dreams are needs, changing, subtletly or significantly variables in an ever-changing world and that concludes, following the butterfly effect, to modifications of self's life and others lifes, creating another set of changes, emotions, ideals, dreams and so on.
At the end, the more the self is changed (one way or the other), the better: new needs promote the way of new facts, creating a controllable cycle of movements, exchanging energy from one manifestation to the other. It does not matter if the self is full of needs or full of facts, both finish changing from one end to the other giving, as a result, an heterogeneous but desirable and nice internal conflict.

Veo en mis estudios el ___.
Lo veo en un constante ir y venir,
otorgar y recibir,
está, y nadie lo nota.
Lo veo en mi familia,
con mis amigos en el bar,
en los momentos de cansancio y desespero.
Pero el ___ sigue ahí, inamovible.
Pero lo que veo no es el ___.
Es una representación de él.
Siempre lo es.
Veo lo que
quiero
ver.
Pero no hay mayor maldición que el deseo.
No hay peor miseria que el descontento.
No hay peor enfermedad que la codicia.
¿Y entonces qué estoy viendo si no es ___?
Sueño a veces que estoy en el camino correcto,
pero no es así.
Nunca encontraré a ___,
pero sigo buscando
y al buscar me equivoco,
porque cuando está, no es.
Dejaré entonces de buscar.
Quizá así,
ya sin esperanzas,
algún día me halle.

¡Qué tiempo! El espacio nada que da lugar para las cosas importantes. Hace rato que había querido recomenzar mi vida en internet, hasta que por fin pude escaparme un momento de todo el trajín y aburrimiento de la vida cotidiana y la marcada soledad de la universidad. Como siempre, mis objetivos son casi nulos, pero ya estaba por estallar: un medio de expresión más allá de la programación es necesario de cuando en cuando. ¿Cuál será mi necesidad de comunicación? ¿Soledad? ¿Libertad? ¿Nostalgia? ¿algún amor lejano? La respuesta estará en los ojos de cada lector. Por mi parte, y siguiendo mi filosofía taoista, me dedicaré a buscarme a mí mismo, y me alegraría saber que este medio siriviera para ello.
Para todo curioso, bienvenido, y si está enguayaba@, lo siento por el color (^_^)... por ahora...
"Prepárate para el salto.
Y que el aire sea con nosotros.
Listos.
