Big Lots (English)

-
You came into my life, uninvited
With a smile, not wanting it
With your clean cloth smell and your clear mind
And gave me the sweetest dreams that I could ever had

I wanted to live in a dream, but could not be
Hiroshima’s day was a great wake up call
The most terrible that I could ever had
I knew you were leaving to never come back
How to retain what was not mine
I wanted to live in a dream, but could not be

Like the passing of time, everything changes, everything passes
Sometimes the ashes surprises us with a hot coal
But how sad is to see the new fire light up
And someone else warming up to that new passion

All changes, all passes, all is forgotten
But the memory saddens the best part of life
I wanted to live in a dream, but could not be

All changes, all passes, all is forgotten
No pain is small, but even though I bless this pain, because is the only thing
That remains of you

It is your blood, you don’t turn your back on family because blood is thicker than water. I grew up listening to that phrase. It used to be that family secrets were hidden behind closed doors and sealed lips. There was an unwritten law that you don’t make waves or you will find yourself without a life raft, (and yes, there are Cubans in the family, but they did not come to the states in a boat). Some of us dared to question, dared to want more. Why? Because something deep inside was telling us that there was more to life than loving them because they were part of the family unit. Do I love my family? Yes, but I don’t have to like them; I don’t have to accept inappropriate behavior or give up my values to accommodate theirs. Being family doesn’t excuse you from being compassionate nor does it give you the right to treat people disrespectfully. Take the family part out and ask yourself “would I accept this behavior from a stranger?” Probably not, but you do not risk losing someone’s love...

Wednesday, my favorite day on TV

-
Wednesdays was my favorite day on TV, the best shows with the best actors, but these days when it is not "the caravan" "Russia Gate" Bush's funeral or Trump's lawyer who goes to jail on Wednesday it has become a nuisance. Today I did something that I don't like doing at night, watch the news. And to top it off the channel stuck was Fox News and commentator Tucker Carlson. Both, e and his guest, ere talking that the United States is envied in the whole world by its constitution and especially by the First Amendment. For those who do not know what the First Amendment says, among some things it says that the government can not get involved in the religion we choose, that we have the right to say what we want or freedom of expression, freedom of the press, etc It will be true that one can say what he wants or is this a lie? I sincerely believe that all this is depending on who says it, when it says it, to whom it is said and especially the co...
