What´s Going On?

My, oh my, this world is a total disaster while some people don´t know what to waste their money in others just can´t buy a thing, not even something to eat. I know I already wrote about this but I think it´s never enough, because it´s such a big reality. It´s all over the world everyone knows about it but, few do anything about it.



I just want to make you think and reflect about the things you worry about at the end they are simply stupid and ridiculous. I mean the world doesn´t spin around anyone. The world is not based in one single persons life or reputation or whatever it´s based on the whole world and off course the whole world makes it a disaster I mean you, me and evreyone makes it worst all the time. We polute it treat wrongly and underestimate what it can do to practically destroy US.



Oh well I know this is probably unworthy of my time to do but trying won ´t make me lose anything. Afterall everything was done trying the hardest as anyone could.



Know I want to show some videos of the world´s reality:

TUESDAY QUOTES

Guess what people? It´s TUESDAY which means it´s quote day get ready for todays quotes!

"The shepherd drives the wolf from the sheep's throat, for which the sheep thanks the shepherd as his liberator, while the wolf denounces him for the same act, as the destroyer of liberty. Plainly the sheep and the wolf are not agreed upon a definition of the word liberty; and precisely the same difference prevails today among human creatures."
-Abraham Lincoln

"All religions, arts and sciences are branches of the same tree. All these aspirations are directed toward ennobling man's life, lifting it from the sphere of mere physical existence and leading the individual towards freedom."
-Albert Einstein

"Him that I love, I wish to be free -- even from me."
-Anne Morrow

"Freedom is not merely the opportunity to do as one pleases; neither is it merely the opportunity to choose between set alternatives. Freedom is, first of all, the chance to formulate the available choices, to argue over them -- and then, the opportunity to choose."
-C.Wright Mills

A brief candle; both ends burning
An endless mile; a bus wheel turning
A friend to share the lonesome times
A handshake and a sip of wine
So say it loud and let it ring
We are all a part of everything
The future, present and the past
Fly on proud bird
You're free at last.
-Charlie Daniels

"Patriotism is not short, frenzied outbursts of emotion, but the tranquil and steady dedication of a lifetime."
-Adlai Stevenson

"I think patriotism is like charity -- it begins at home."
-Henry James

"A man's country is not a certain area of land, of mountains, rivers, and woods, but it is a principle; and patriotism is loyalty to that principle."
-George William Curtis

"A thoughtful mind, when it sees a Nation's flag, sees not the flag only, but the Nation itself; and whatever may be its symbols, its insignia, he reads chiefly in the flag the Government, the principles, the truths, the history which belongs to the Nation that sets it forth."
-Henry Ward Beecher

Quote of the day: "It´s not about waiting for the storm to pass, it´s about learning how to dance in the rain"

Pictures

I´ve been thinking and I have been writing a lot but I haven´t put pictures of Colombia. Today I will put a few of Colombian pictures for you to enjoy.

Colombia is an incredible country and I´m trying to show it through this blog, I´m also trying to make it as entertaining as possible and that´s why I´m not writing every single day.

I´m just trying to show that Colombia is just like any other country and that it has problems like any other.

Today!

Because it´s Sunday I consider it would be better if I do something entertaining so I decided I will post a few videos about Colombia because it´s not that pleasant to read on Sunday´s.

BARICHARA

Last week was spirit week and for this holiday I visited Barichara a beautiful little village with colonial houses and streets. Barichara is a Colombian National Monument, and has many activities that can be done there and in near villages. In Barichara you can appreciate the Colonial art and aswell do some street walking and buy some Colombian artesanias (artcrafts). In the near areas you can enjoy different caves both for extreme explorers and children, also in the near villages you can go to beatiful cascades where you can do rappel and other extreme sports. You can also enjoy of rafting in the river and do the walk to Guane a beatiful village near to Barichara where the Guane Indians used to live. Just one hour away you can go to the The national Chicamocha Park.

TUESDAY QUOTES

Yesterday I forgot about Tuesday quotes because I was just updating again after spring week, so I will post them today Wednesday just for this time.

"Attempting to get at truth means rejecting stereotypes and cliches."
-Harold Evans

"I have been a victim of stereotypes. I come from Latin America and to some countries, we are considered 'losers,' drug traffickers, and that is not fair because that is generalizing."
-Ricky Martin

"There are a lot of stereotypes to be broken which I think a lot of us are doing. What I do is, as soon as people try to pin me down to one kind of part, I'll play a very different kind of role, so it explodes that stereotype."
-Joan Chen

"I regard class differences as contrary to justice and, in the last resort, based on force."
-Albert Enstein

"I am not interested in picking up crumbs of compassion thrown from the table of someone who considers himself my master. I want the full menu of rights."
-Bishop Desmond Tutu

"The first principal of nonviolent action is that of noncooperation with everything humiliating."
-Cesar Chaves

"Now my friends, I am opposed to the system of society in which we live today, not because I lack the natural equipment to do for myself but because I am not satisfied to make myself comfortable knowing that there are thousands of my fellow men who suffer for the barest necessities of life. We were taught under the old ethic that man's business on this earth was to look out for himself. That was the ethic of the jungle; the ethic of the wild beast. Take care of yourself, no matter what may become of your fellow man. Thousands of years ago the question was asked; ''Am I my brother's keeper?'' That question has never yet been answered in a way that is satisfactory to civilized society.
Yes, I am my brother's keeper. I am under a moral obligation to him that is inspired, not by any maudlin sentimentality but by the higher duty I owe myself. What would you think me if I were capable of seating myself at a table and gorging myself with food and saw about me the children of my fellow beings starving to death."
1908 speech
-Eugene V. Debs

Finally quote of the day:Be who you are and say what you want, because those who mind don´t matter and those who matter don´t mind.
