How we see the world

urka´s eye ©riosik

How we perceive the things around us affects the way we think. How we think things are affects the way we act. How we act determines who we are. What we perceive make us what we are, and what we think , is later what we see. I am not who I think I am, but I am what I think I am.

Como vemos las cosas a nuestro alrededor afecta la manera en que pensamos. Como pensamos que son las cosas afecta a nuestros actos. Nuestros actos determinan quienes somos. Lo que percibimos crea lo que somos, y lo que pensamos, después lo vemos. No soy quien pienso que soy, pero soy lo que pienso que soy.

In love, maybe there is more than one way, maybe two, maybe more. Two boats and both take to the same place, but two boats that are different. There is river enough for many boats, but is there river enough fo you?

Winter is coming

Βαθιά πληγή, παλιά πληγή Ηerida profunda, herida antigua
μονακριβή δική μου única preciosa mia,
την ξεριζώνω απ΄την καρδιά que arranco del corazon
φυτρώνει στην αυλή μου crece en mi patio

ανθίζει καταχείμωνο florece en mitad del invierno
που οι φωνές κοπάζουν cuando las voces se aplacan
έχει την φυλλωσιά πυκνή tiene el follaje denso
και νύχια που χαράζουν y uñas que rallan

Αγαπημένα πρόσωπα Caras queridas
αγαπημένα μάτια ojos queridos
έρχονται σαν τα κύμματα vienen como las olas
κι αφήνουν κατακάθια y dejan sedimentos

Μαραίνεται απ΄το γέλιο μου Se marchita por mi risa
πίνει απ’τα δάκρυα μου bebe de mis lagrimas
έρχεται στις παρέες μου viene en mi compañia
και κλέβει την μιλιά μου y roba mi habla

Βαθιά πληγή, παλιά πληγή Herida profunda, herida antigua
πες μου τι να κοιτάζω dime a que mirar
να μπω σε κόσμο σκοτεινό entrar en un mundo oscuro
ή πάλι ν’αγγαλιάσω? o abrazar de nuevo?

Tame the tiger

Tamed tiger ©riosik

“Rising up, back on the street
Did my time, took my chances
Went the distance, now I’m back on my feet
Just a man and his will to survive
So many times, it happens too fast
You change your passion for glory
Don’t lose your grip on the dreams of the past
You must fight just to keep them alive…”

From Eye of the tiger by Survivor

san xoan – san cibrao

fogueira de san xoan ©riosik

Forzas do ar, terra, mar e lume,
a vós fago esta chamada,
si é verdade que das miñas mans
poderei calmar a xente eiquí e agora,
facede que os espíritos dos amigos que están fóra
participen con nós desta queimada.

Vacas

Trás mucho rumiar y rumiar la tesis acaba de acabar. Y de vacas gordas de Dinamarca, en un papel tapiz de güindous, a vacas sagradas voy!

Un lapso desconectado del blog, espero que la tesis termine pronto, y venga riosik.com. Ahi queda la quintana de los muertos.

“…I heard it from the many Jews who demanded, indeed pleaded for a “balanced” picture, who wanted “equal time” for consideration of the violence from Palestinians that presumably creates the basis for Israeli retaliation in its various forms.

But the situation is not balanced.

Palestine is being destroyed. Israel has all the power. The Palestinian people — a good, patient people — are being ground into the dirt, their leaders killed, imprisoned or exiled, their young people impoverished and robbed of a future. Any possibility for nonviolent protest is made all but impossible by a brutal military occupation.

We are doing wrong. We have blood on our hands. Yes, there have been Palestinians who have perpetrated acts of violence. But we must look to the cause…”
