São Paulo, Brasil  27°C

This is the second time I stay in the city during this time. Sao Paulo is pleasant, just like every holiday. The torrid rains that have made many victims in Rio, have just helped freshen up a bit here- good for the 17,000 runners of the Sao Silvestre Marathon!!

Watching some tv today, all I could see was people and their superstitions for the New Year! They all mention this thing about colors they will be in on the New Year´s Eve . Some of them prefer to wear white in order to bring peace. Yellow is the color of gold- money! Red is passion and pink is for love! HHmmm…. Guess I will have to dress like a rainbow!! Ok, I´m not that superstitious…

There are many nice places to be during the New year´s Eve. I will choose one and then, hug some friends… Truly, I prefer to save the expectations of this date to the whole year!! But what to expect? I expect 12 months or 365 days…At least till some time ago we could at least count on that! Life is so unpredictable… And I wish human beings get wiser. We are the only beings that have this gorgeous capacity of dreaming- hope we use that for good!

Found this in Sada´s place. Ok, I didn´t take this test seriously, it is actually, to prompt the Resolution talk. Everyone´s mentioning that.. What they want to do in the New Year… HHm…. Long ago I have given up making lists of goals! Instead, I guess it is rather better concentrate in one thing at a time. Guess if one makes huge numbers of stressing things to do…one does not feel the magic of the simple things life offers…. I have just one main goal this year… Won´t tell you, but I will surely post snaps of it after I reach there  And the rest…. I just know I will live each day as spontaneous as I can!

You all, Have a great year !!! Thanks for all the comments and visits to this site. It has been quite a nice experience here in Xanga!!

BOO!

Something short…

Someone asked me about it.. let me be brief!

Christmas celebration in Brazil is not that different
from any other part of the world. There is no snow- as
we are in the Summer, but pictures of snowmen can be
seen everywhere… Other imported X-mas symbols from
the North Hemisphere can be seen all around places!
There are Malls full of lights, huge decorated trees,
some guys in santa claus- and children around… and
people shopping…HHmm…

Stressful… Fun, I agree, but this year I could not
find any reason for doing such rituals!! I preferred to
spend the holiday eve alone, just thinking, and feeling
it. It was kind of weird at the start, but it was good!
It was different!

For the first time, I really wanted to figure out what
this date is about. Maybe being alone was not a right
choice, but I really did not feel comfortable to add any
other characters to it.  Also, I really don´t agree with
the idea of having this kind spirit just during this
time of the year.. HHmm…It was worth it!

…But I didn’t escape the other day! My family and some
relatives got together for lunch! And there was fun, and
talk, and turkey…the works! Just like anywhere else. 

Sometimes it is nice to watch things from a different side.  
And this year I felt like hugging people knowing exactly what I meant when I wished them a Merry Christmas..

Playing, and playing…

Hehehe… I could not help it! You know, the test was there… The film is going to be here in JAnuary…before I thought, the test was done!

hey, there is something about nash…. go there!

Hope you all have nice holidays! No matter what your religion is, I think it is always worth wishing  good times! Hope you can keep your hearts warm even after the holidays…

enjoy!

Peace to you all!!

Hmm…He did something so nice! What can I offer him? He already has my love… maybe I should give him some flowers… That is nice too, isnt it?

What in Christmas are  you?

…

I would feel happy if, at least once,

I were quiet in my place,still,

and you looked for me

and I would n´t have to move a finger,

would n´t even have to smile

I would feel happy if,

at sunset, I found your heart

entering in my silence,

annulling my solitude

despising my shyness

without changing anything in me

I´d feel embarrassingly happy if,

I had realized before that,

it´s just a matter of time

Till things got back

To the way they should be.

In Dreams

When the cold of Winter comes

starless night will cover day

in the veiling of the sun

We will walk in bitter rain

But in dreams

I still hear your name

And in dreams

we will meet again

When the seas and mountains

fall

And we come to end of days

In the dark I hear a call

Calling me there I will go there

And back again
