PENA

PENA - Serra de Sintra - PORTUGAL (foto de Luís Alegre)

«Valeu a pena? Tudo vale a pena
Se a alma não é pequena.
Quem quer passar além do Bojador
Tem que passar além da dor.
Deus ao mar o perigo e o abismo deu,
Mas nele é que espelhou o céu.» 

Fernando Pessoa


Que pena não ter mais que uma pena
Para não só escrever, como também voar até à Pena
E daí partir Atlântico fora
E de ti me aproximar hora após hora

E do Mar até ao vale do Madalena chegar
E na tua Cidade do Céu aterrar
Que bom que é contigo sonhar
Que felicidade é te Amar

Heart in Earth - http://ichef.bbci.co.uk/wwfeatures/624_351/images/live/p0/3j/cf/p03jcf2w.jpg

E mais além da Humanidade ... o Amor
E mais além do dever ser ... o Ser em flor
E mais além da negação de Deus ... a fé em Jesus que nos Liberta dos «anéis de ouro»
Que transcende o mesquinho poder e o bipolar «urso» e « touro»
E nos orienta para a Vida eterna pelo «Verbo», pela Verdade, pela Luz
Pelo Amor, num Ser «nascido de novo», como criança, como nos dizia e diz Jesus ...

BRASIL XX - BRASILIA XX - BRAZIL XX

QUID?! http://www.dn.pt/sociedade/interior/literatura-portuguesa-deixa-de-ser-obrigatoria-no-brasil-5039149.html

The Brazilian government leaded by a bad president have a new bad optioon: a proposal for exclude the Portuguese literature, roots of Brazil  of the the academic curriculum! Incredible!

After the incredible Portuguese representatives turn to much easy the access to Portuguese companies (Cimpor in cements, PT in telecommunications, TAP in air transports) with a great devaluation, after the devaluation of Portuguese language by a terrible approach to Brazilian Portuguese based in phonetic and not in Latin roots with a bad resultant (we can´t see English language lost it Latin roots), Brazil government have this kind of proposal? Dilma go to home, please don´t devaluate more and more Brazil with your bad options ... We hope tha Brazilian Persons stop that!

Depois de tanta e infeliz facilidade concedida ao Brasil por maus representantes de Portugal, no acesso a grupos empresariais (CIMPOR, PT, TAP), no Acordo Ortográfico ET CETERA vem agora o péssimo governo do Brasil propôr a negação das suas lusas raízes e tornar não obrigatória a Literatura Portuguesa (Camões, Pessoa ET CETERA) no CURRICULUM escolar?! Os populistas esquerdistas do PT de Dilma estão a desvalorizar fortemente o Brasil, o seu rumo é desastroso, sem ética, sem sentido ... Fernanfo Henrique Cardoso e toda a oposição democrática precisam de reorientar o grande Brasil! 

TURQUIA XI - TURCIA XI - TURKEY XI

Deniz Gamze Ergüven: Turkish and French film director of her first movie named «Mustang» and talk about a sisterhood https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deniz_Gamze_Erg%C3%BCven#/media/File:OIFF_2015-07-18_221422_-_Deniz_Gamze_Erg%C3%BCven.jpg

Mustang means Freedom (free horse) and the movie talk about a sisterhood against a tyrant society against Women.



Deniz Gamze Ergüven said about Turkey: 
«I am worried of course by the increasing censorship in Turkey. But after receiving warm reactions from a few people here whose responses I was fearing the most, I felt like there could still be a sane mentality in the country. Let’s say the worst happens and the film is banned—which I don’t think will happen—it would still be impossible to prevent it from being watched, because as we know, films travel to all sorts of places thanks to the Internet today. I believe that no matter what happens, the film will continue to live, and a sane fraction of Turkey will embrace it. The film reflects a human reality and you can’t run away from that reality no matter how much you close your eyes. I remember a tweet during [the] Gezi [Park protests]: “We are so right!” And that’s also true of the girls in the film. They are so right that it’s impossible to say they aren’t.» http://www.filmcomment.com/blog/cannes-interview-deniz-gamze-ergueven/

And Kurds are so right also, yes, and tyrants of Turkey so wrong!

More deep and sensible words from Deniz Gamze Ergüven:
«(...) na Turquia quem não concorda com o governo está tramado. Nem imaginam a quantidade de jornalistas agora que estão na prisão. Alguém que questione o partido do poder, de repente, desaparece (...)
Todos os dias recebo ameaças na Turquia e mensagens negativas. Por outro lado (...) há pessoas a receber muito bem o filme e a apoiar. Tenho uma amiga que acabou de me relatar que há mulhheres a voltar a ter esperança graças ao meu filme (...)» Deniz Gamze Erguven

ROJAVA IV

STOP tyrants of Turkey. We never forget who means otoman empire revival mixed with support to enemies of Humanity: Edrogan is a tyrant, a manipulator, a lier and have cumplicity of interests inside our democratic countries. With a poor European Union, United states of America is our great hope to stop the enemies of Humanity, stop also them cumplice, Edrogan and him followers of tyranny. Russia is near to turn friend about Syria with the brutal attack by turkish forces against the Heroes and Heroines of Kurdish YPG. United States of America must be more strong against Edrogan cumplicity with «Satan State» and support more and more Kurdish positions. Why the new SS exist? With cumplicity of all forces. Is the momentum to change and really defend Humanity, Freedom and Liberty!
