Hiatus

Hello readers!
For my own reasons, I will have to declare a hiatus for my blogs.

I will see you in some months!

Blocs of memories

I am standing on the corner of my illusions
I start to wander
Among many wonders
About past's manifestations

Oh mighty memory
It feels like yesterday
I walked here
Everyday

It is getting colder now
As a nostalgic feeling brings me down
I walked nearby here not so long ago
Past and present entwine on the go

For now and ever
I'll remember of it
As a short forever
That I loved so deep

Anyway, nothing can stop
The ticking of the clock
Not even a trip
To the deepest memory

A poem about time

It scares me to see how time flies
As everything passes by
It is plausible not to freak out
Because that's what life is about

I aim to go and do it
The way I dreamt
It seems so far away...
But in this world I will have my way

I fear the relativity
Of everything's theory
I feel I'm meant to
So my deepest dream will be what, someday, I'll do!

As my clock's ticking
I am rhyming
Aiming to share
This feeling with someone who cares

Monday morning - a poem -- Poems #1

Hello guys!
I have been writing some poetry in English. I am going to show you guys some during the next weeks.

I hope you'll like it!

Monday morning - a poem

I see people staring at me
I hear them calling my name
What do they want from me?
What does it mean? All the same...

The wind speeds up
As rain starts to pour
Will they wake me up
Or they want me to move?

I'm standing in front of a gateway
In a Monday morning day
I have much to do and say
Will I be on their way?

There's a school nearby
And old memories pass me by
I said so much goodbyes
I don't know if I was right

The wind whispers in my ear
I can't believe in what I hear
My old doubts are clear
Life might bring what isn't near

A Brief Text (Stretch) about Maturity at 18 years old

It might seem weird to hear about maturity from a 18-year-old guy like me. It is, indeed...

But as time goes by, I have realized I have changed (and that I am still changing), I believe that it is very funny how in the end of the adolescence these changes become much more often. I remind me doing things two years ago I wouldn't do nowadays. I changed a lot in the last months also, all the time, what goes OK changes us, but what doesn't change us even more.

The process of growth prepare us for the life in a way that makes us understand our rights and wrongs, it makes us see the good and the bad in both parts.
A person's maturation process is hard in every single way... we question us and everything else. But in the end everything makes sense, everything seems to fit on its own place, slowly.

This is the magic of live, it lets us ready for what is coming and experienced to share it.


When it overwhelms me, I just think of the phrase from the Greek philosopher Heraclitus:

   "No man ever steps in the same river twice, for it's not the same river and he's not the same man."

Choices with a hint of Sartre

Hello guys, I know it is been a while but it is hard for me to translate all those texts during the week or the weekend... so yeah, a tight schedule and everything...

So here it comes an other text... I hope you'll enjoy it!!

( I wrote this post last week in Portuguese. If you'd like to read in Portuguese, click here). Well here it goes...


Jean Paul Sartre, a French philosopher from the last century was the major responsible for the dissemination of existentialism. I won't really get into the theory by itself, but it talks about our existence, that is basically what we are (which is really complicated...), but it can be responsible for our attitude. Therefore, our existence can be changed according to our choices,

"The essence proceeds the existence" - Jean Paul Sartre

A popular example is Harry Potter in the first book, when he was sitting with the Sorting Hat on his head, he picked up to be in Gryffindor. Even though being part of Slytherin is part of his essence, regarding his contact with Voldemort. 

Therefore, I think of choices, they have got the power to change the world, at least our world. There are choices in everything we do during life, we make choices to come down the way we are now, and even more to reach what we want. 

Little, big, important or not. Every decision is relevant, all of them makes us think on what, many times, make us develop as human-beings. They intrigue writers, from fiction until philosophers. 

We have got the free will. Our choices are going to say where we are heading to, where we're going to and, of course, our essence. 

In the course of time... naturally... 

A week

I sit at the computer, take a deep breath.
I start thinking about dates and deadlines of things that are happening. I do not want to worry about what lies ahead, but I can not ignore the sensation that says that, in a week, everything can change.

My heart races and my mind goes into reverie.
Madness would be not to try, then I take another deep breath and think ...
... On what I could be doing this morning if I had not done.
There are things that should not be put in the background.
 But most of the time, our desire for conquering does not let us see what could be better for us.
As the Detonautas [A Brazilian Band] said: "I believe in what I do, what I did and what I will do"

 Although, to overthink can puzzle the brain. I begin to think of a song that could help me to calm down and let time pass without thinking a lot, but by brain can't find anything.
When our dreams are on the table, it is not so easy to be unconcerned, after all, they say that at seventeen, we have the impression of an eternal rollercoaster, leading nowhere.

Is that so?
