Ok, it was almost two months without posting!!!!! It happened for many reasons and the most important was NWWW :) I just love this place and since I have almost all my friends online there and since there we have freedom to post all things, I just stoped to post here :D

But then I realized that some friends don't go there and they miss me here <333 And some kind of posts need a place to stay, to people come to read and to comment when they can.....And, well I was missing this place :) I just stoped to read the LJ of my friends because I was not here around, and I miss it too <333

So here Im again :)

A good friend of mine, Angeline, had an amazing idea about to get a day to celebrate love and care and to give atention to people that needs some love. I will post her original idea here and if each one of us just give some love to one person, it will be already amazing <3



A Day For Love, something I'm gonna do
May 28 2007

Ok, I'm starting a little personal campaign for hope.
This idea stems from Warning and American Idiot - the idea of all the negative subliminal messages that we get from the words around us.
There is so much despair in the world, people at a dark place in their hearts, people giving up on themselves and each other. On the first day of June, whoever is willing wears a t-shirt that just says 'Don't Give Up'. Someone who is in darkness may see that message, and they don't know why it's there, just that it is.
The same day, you light a candle - because it's better to light a candle than curse the darkness - you light that candle for the human spirit.
For that day, wearing that message, you embody love - love for random people you may never meet. It's essential that no money changes hands - you make the t-shirt yourself by just writing the words with a sharpie, or printing it off from your pc, or you give one to someone else to wear - the only impulse and energy is love.
You tell your friends what you're gonna do, and ask if they want to join in, but that's the only you publicise it - there is no media, no celebrity endorsement, no organization, no badge to say 'I did this', just the knowledge in your own heart. It's an uncomplicated act of love.
If a lot of people do it, then it's wonderful. If one person in every city in the world does it, then it's even more wonderful - but it should just happen, like a flower opening with the rays of the sun. This is just people for people, believing in each other and in ourselves.
This is what my shirt will look like - I just used Punk Kid font -

Maybe the whole idea makes you wanna puke, or you think it's not enough or whatever - but if you like it, do it.



So, it was posted here http://www.greendaycommunity.org/Forum/index.php?showtopic=50458 on GDC.

If you go there you will see that you can do it in many ways, not just with the tee if you can't. :)

What can I say about the 'Working Class Hero'??!!

Its so powerful, so strong, so deep.........I can't even describe how my neck shiver when I listen it!!! His voice, the guitar, all screaming and going to some point of where I want to scream too........and Lennon in the end seems to me like a beautiful image that we should never forget him and his message.

I saw an interview with Pink Floyd, not much time ago, and at some point, talking about The Dark Side of the Moon, Gilmour said something that I will never forget and that when I was listening 'Working Class Hero', for the first time, it came to my mind and I had tears in my eyes.....Gilmour said:

"You know, I will always feel envy of every person that could get The Dark Side of the Moon and just listening it for the first time, for the first time ever.....without to know it, just listening song by song for the first time......I just imagine that moment in one life"

I totally understood it when he said, because they made the song and they played it over and over and over again untill to get it finished; but to us, that just put it to play, take a seat, and stay there listening with eyes closed.....and now I just feel it!!!

I love you guys!!!

It was tagged by Jaelle and I am quite happy about it :)

Just 3/4 days ago, I wrote some lines about Internet and Friendship and I was just thinking about to post here and on my poems thread; ok its not a poem, but all true friendship is a kind of poem, so...... but then, yesterday, I decided that I should post, because I want that my true friends know how I see it ;)


Some days ago, I was talking with someone that I had as a friend and in the middle of conversation this person said some line that hit me: "my virtual friends".....and just one day after that, someone used that line "these internet things" to describe how this person think about people that talk with her by computer.

I totally disagree with both lines.... I couldn't stop to think about them since that day.

Why is it so dificult to think that, if you are a person (a human being) in front of your computer, in the other side have someone like you?!
"What kind of internet thing" Do you think that is the person in the other side?!

If you are not 'virtual', Should I be virtual?!

I don't get it....I always loved the strong feeling that the person in the other side awake on me.
I could say that I have 'online friendships' just as I say that I have friends from school, from university, from work.....Why an online friendship could be diferent of a physical friendship? Because we can't see and touch?!

I have some online friends that are too much open with me than with people around them; and many times we have people around us that never, never know us...
Some couples live togheter for years without teach each other (or they touch, but without any feeling), without any open conversation...

Why an online friend could be less friend than a physical friend?! Friends by correspondence exist since the mail was invented!! Maybe because a paper is something that we can have in ours hands, seems more 'real'. For decades, in the last century, it was really usual to have friends by correspondence.

What is diferent in both of them? online and physical friends?
Disappointments? we have in both cases.....
Lies? we have in both cases....
"Durability"? who can promise that a friendship will be for ever?
Danger people? it is just walk in the streets and we are so near of a lot of them....

There is no diference about feelings.

In fact, we can to see, to hear, to talk and to share a lot of feelings with the person in the other side....and many times we have just strangers living around us....

Maybe, to know opinions, feelings, facts about a person before to see the face is a good way to know someone. Its usual to do the contrary, and it not sounds strange to us, hehe

I love my friends. All of you make me a better person, all of you have a place in my life.

-----------------

I strongly recomend a beautiful movie that I saw many yeras ago and for many times called "84 Charing Cross Road"
Here, this movie is called something like "Never saw you, Always loved you"


(http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0090570/)

"There is no pain, you are receding
A distant ship smoke on the horizon
You are coming through in waves
Your lips move but I can't hear what you're saying
When I was a child I had a fever
My hands felt just like two balloons
Now I've got that feeling once again
I can't explain, you would not understand"

(Comfortably Numb - Pink Floyd)



Since I was a little kid, I have something that is really personal: everytime when something really bad or sad hit me, I have a high fever.
I remember almost all the times that it happened, because its linked with something that made me feel so hurted.

Im a very 'physical' person: my feelings are so strong that they always come to 'physical', the bad ones but the good ones too.

I have a high fever for two days now....."Now I've got that feeling once again
I can't explain, you would not understand"....

I stole it from Valeria's (Jaelle) LJ ;)

Now about the meeting: it was in a city 2 hours from my city and as always, hehe, a city with amazing beachs :D Almost 10.000 bikes went to the meeting and it was really crazy: I love bikes and I could see all kind of them!!! They organized some good shows and we knew a lot of people. I took a lot of pics, but I will post just some that make some sense to you my friends, heh

I just love to get the road by bike :)

Ok, here Im again my loved gang :D Thanks for the wishes on my last post <333, they worked and the show and the weekend were AMAZING!!!!

So I will begin talking about the show: Im waiting to see Pink Floyd since I was 13/14 years, when I bought my first vynil and it was The Wall (and I have it untill today). I love David Gilmour, but I need to say that I learned to love Pink Floyd listening The wall and then I went to their others albuns, so I love Waters. To me, Gilmour is the trip-side of PF and Waters, the agony-side. His voice is so strong and deep and even now, he is 61 years, his voice is the same!! Another thing: a lot of songs that I love was written for him. My brother and I used to listen The Wall togheter after to drink and just stay there, traveling......we loved too to listen Wish you Were Here in two versions, with Gilmour and with Waters and just to talk about who was the best, hehe.....
Well, I cried a lot listening Confortably Numb, Wish you Were Here, The Wall, Mother, Shine on...., and all the The Dark Side of the Moon: it was almost 3 hours of show!!! I was in heaven.
I got some pics, but I didn't take pics, I knew that I would love just to be there singing....so they are not mine, but they are from the show.

Tonight Im going to see Roger Waters, lol!!!!! Im really excited about, because will be a show in two parts: one with songs by Pink Floyd, and another where he will play all The Dark Side of the Moon!!!! It will be a long show, I waited for that so long......

When I come back from the show, I will sleep some hours and get the road to a huge bike's meeting in a city 2 hours from here, so I will be able to tell you guys about the show just on sunday night, heheheh.....I will be off almost all weekend.

.....yeah, of course I will miss 'my gang' but I promise to take pics, hehehehe

I just 'need' to post that pic here, because its really funny: I was on the b'day of my nephew: A lot of wild kids running around, and I was trying to help his mother.....but at the same time, I wanted to have my ice cream safe of those wild boys, hehehe......and someone got it, jezzzzzzzz :D

"Two roads diverged in a wood and I --
I took the one less travelled by,
and that has made all the difference."
--Robert Frost


yeah, just it.

Today I posted on Cheryl's thread, about a poem of her, a beautiful poem and when I finished, I read it and it was so like me, so intense that I wanted post those lines here....and I even don't know why.....maybe is because worked like a mirror to me.


".........you know when you want something impossible, but you want just to want it? when 'want it' is all that we have, and so its enough and then we just close the eyes and let that wish invade us? That is what I feel......and thats ok, its enough to feel that wish running in my veins."

My loved friend Mary (some of you know her by 'piratepalmer' on GDC), send me a really coooooooooool link and I couldn't resist to do what this site was asking me to do!!! :D

And what was that? marry me with my favorite character....well, online, hehehe, nothing is perfect lol !!!!

So, Mary, I did it.......and all of you already know who I married >< ..... yeah, him :D

And I can prove!!!!

"The only people for me are the mad ones. The ones who are mad to love, mad to talk, mad to be saved; the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn like fabulous yellow Roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars"

Jack Kerouac

I wrote these lines on my sig some days ago and I love when I see my posts and I read my sig!!

I discovered Kerouac when I was around 15 years, these lines are from On The Road, I have that book untill today.....with him, I discovered the beatnicks: Allen Ginsberg, William Burroughs, Neal Cassidy, Ferlinghetti, Ken Kesey, Gary Snider.....and all writers and poets that influenced them, Rimbaud, Baudeleire, Blake, Withman, Thoreau....

He describe a kind of person that always attracted me: people like me, who is always mad to love, to talk, people that burn....

They are part of who I am, I could not be who I am without their words: Because of them, I traveled during all my life, I lived in diferent places, with diferent people, living with freedom and joy all that came to me.

Music, books, to travel and to love. That is what make my life.

Its friday, and as Robert Smith says, "Its friday, Im in love!!"

What is this 'to be in love'?! I don't dare to try define this word.....its enough to feel it so intense, in each part of my skin, of my soul..

Its magical that I never touched you, but I have your image engraved on the ends of my fingers....I never seated beside you, but sometimes the wind brings your scent to me and I see you smiling.

I waste my energy
I lose my mind
My body is a playground
Where I live my dreams
