    Life is partly what we make it, and partly what it is made by the friends we choose.

    Life's problems wouldn't be called "hurdles" if there wasn't a way to get over them.

    If I may,

    ‘By three methods we may learn wisdom:
    First, by reflection which is noblest;
    second, by imitation, which is the easiest;
    and third, by experience, which is the bitterest.’

    "Filho é um ser que nos foi emprestado para um curso intensivo de como amar alguém além de nós mesmos, de como mudar os nossos piores defeitos para darmos os melhores exemplos e de como aprendermos a ter mais coragem. Isto mesmo! Ser Pai ou Mãe é o maior acto de coragem que alguém pode ter, porque é expor-se a todo tipo de dor, principalmente a da incerteza de estar a agir correctamente e a do medo de perder algo tão amado. Perder? Como? Não é nosso, recordam-se? Foi apenas um empréstimo".

    "Son is a being that has been borrowed for a crash course in how to love someone other than ourselves, changing our worst faults to give the best examples and learn how to have more courage. That's right! Being a parent is the greatest act of courage that one can have, because it is exposed to all kinds of pain, especially the uncertainty to be acting properly and the fear of losing something so dear. losing how? We do not, remind it? it was just a loan. "
    José Saramago

    Thought for the day Oct 12, 2011:

    A man's age is something impressive, it sums up his life: maturity reached slowly and against many obstacles, illnesses cured, griefs and despairs overcome, and unconscious risks taken; maturity formed through so many desires, hopes, regrets, forgotten things, loves. A man's age represents a fine cargo of experiences and memories.

    Now it is done and finnished. It is my song of love to the world. Well I liked to do it and put all of me in this video. Now it is yours also. I am not a public man but have given more than usual of my life in this video. Isnt life strange is a different kind of video in a world that see the fun in violence and non sense things. Somehow this is my painting on a new life to come. A beautifull thought for a day a task for a life.

    I know this by a simpler expression.

    "Stupid should hurt."

    which leads to:
