InShadow Festival

Beautiful short movie directed by Ana Cembrero from Valencia, Spain

Described by the artists as an emotional journey, CINÉTICA, shows through the body the ambiguity of a real and imaginary world where a woman inhabits, searches, dances, fights or plays, without separating what is lived and what is dreamed.

Trailer Cinética from La ignorancia on Vimeo.

to be free...

"It shouldn't hurt me to be free
It's what I really need
To pull myself together
But if it's so good being free
Would you mind telling me
Why I don't know what to do with myself"

Portalegre

No problems when you're in nature...

Once more, enjoying the weekend by going for a long 10km walk in Marvão, and Cabeço de Vide, Portalegre. The autumn colors inspire introspective thoughts: where do I want to go? what can I do better? where can I help?

Portugal is going through a rough time. The feeling of disbelieve in the rulers of our society is huge. Who can we trust? This feeling of not knowing in who to trust ruins the necessary spirit of community. We need to feel that we know and that we can count on our neighbors, in our politicians, in our banks, in our private companies. There can be no prosperity in a dying society. Making money at all cost is just feeding the increasing material and spiritual poverty.

We are getting poorer when we act only as individuals, and not as part of mankind. Who is teaching our children, who is taking care of our elders, who is sharing with the needed, who is giving a warm smile to the depressed?

To share an inspiring experience (hope you join me next time!):

BBC Knowledge! Cool : )



Passeios...

Aproveitando os fins-de-semana para passear, para sair da cidade, para me desafiar numa prova... Estas fotos são do caminho ao Monte Abraão ou Monte das 3 cruzes na Arrábida e depois da manhã de Domingo em Montemor, antes da prova super-sprint-triatlo, que termino com vida e cheia de contente, cruzando o pórtico desenhado por mim! Dias completos : ) bom...

Super Sprint Triathlon... CHECK!

At first I was feeling really nervous. I was wondering if people around me were fully aware of what they were about to do? Because I wasn't... I didn't read the instructions, I went there just to try something, but just when I got there I realized that people meant business over there, no kids allowed! but I did ok! Just once I tried to go over a policeman, but he was impecable, he didn't move an inch!

So, to have it proven, for my grandchildrem, here the pictures:
