CON EL TIEMPO

De autor desconocido para mi pero de sabias palabras reescribo este mensaje, dedicado a aquellos que estuvieron, a los que están y a los que estarán junto a mi.

Todo es Vanidad Humana solo perdura el amor, porque la vida se acaba cuando menos se espera, lo importante es estar bien delante de DIOS, para que cuando llegue ese día, nuestra alma vaya directo al cielo (Pastor Pablo)

Con el tiempo aprendes que estar con alguien porque te ofrece un gran futuro significa que tarde o temprano querrás volver a tu pasado. Con el tiempo, con el tiempo te das cuenta que casarse solo porque te estás quedando es una clara advertencia de que tu matrimonio será un fracaso. Con el tiempo comprendes que quien solo es capaz de amarte con tus defectos sin pretender cambiarte puede brindarte toda la felicidad que deseas, con el tiempo te das cuenta que si estas al lado de esa persona solo por acompañar tu soledad, irremediablemente acabarás deseando no verle más, con el tiempo te das cuenta que los amigos verdaderos valen mucho más que cualquier cantidad de dinero, con el tiempo, entiendes que los verdaderos amigos son contados y quien no lucha por ellos tarde o temprano se verá rodeado de amistades falsas, con el tiempo aprendes que las palabras dichas en un momento de ira pueden seguir lastimando a quien heriste, durante toda la vida, con el tiempo aprendes que DISCULPAR cualquiera lo hace pero PERDONAR es solo de almas grandes, con el tiempo aprendes que si has herido a un amigo duramente muy probablemente la amistad nunca vuelva a ser igual, con el tiempo te das cuenta de que cada experiencia vivida con cada persona es irrepetible, con el tiempo te das cuenta que quien HUMILLA o DESPRECIA a un ser humano tarde o temprano sufrirá las mismas humillaciones o desprecios multiplicados, con el tiempo aprendes a construir todos tus caminos en el HOY porque el terreno del MAÑANA es demasiado incierto para hacer planes, con el tiempo aprendes que apresurar las cosas o forzarlas a que pasen ocasionará que al final no sea como esperabas, con el tiempo te das cuenta de que lo mejor no era el FUTURO sino el momento q estabas viviendo justo en ese instante, con el tiempo aprenderás que intentar PERDONAR o pedir PERDÓN, decir que AMAS, decir que EXTRAÑAS, decir que NECESITAS, decir que quieres ser AMIGO y ante una tumba ya no tiene ningún sentido, pero desafortunadamente solo con el tiempo y como HOY ES TIEMPO te mando muchísimos saludos para los que ya no estamos juntos, por todos los momentos buenos y malos que nos tocó vivir y a todos con los que ahora estoy pasando momentos geniales, gracias por ESTAR  y por SER y recuerda estas palabras: EL HOMBRE SE HACE VIEJO MUY PRONTO Y SABIO DEMASIADO TARDE, justamente cuando ya NO HAY TIEMPO.

International Democracy day

On November 8^th, 2007 the General Assembly of the United Nations in Resolution 62/7 decided to declare September 15^th as International Democracy Day. It encouraged the Governments to strengthen national programs devoted to promoting and consolidating democracy.

Democracy is an universal value based on the freely will expressed by people to determine their own political, economic, social and cultural systems and their full participation in all aspects of life.

While democracies share common features, there is no single model of democracy. The activities of the United Nations in support of the action of Governments to promote and consolidate democracy are carried out in accordance with the Letter and only at the specific request of the Member States concerned.

The theme this year focuses on the challenges and opportunities associated with greater involvement of young people in democratic processes.

The Interparlamentary Union promotes the International Democracy Day through its parliament members in 162 countries around the world.

Alma Comunitaria

Mi colega Maivy Cruz en éste su comentario resalta el trabajo de la Casa de Cultura en la comunidad.

La casa de cultura constituye el alma de cualquier comunidad. De esta institución nacen y crecen nuevos talentos creativos, nace el arte más joven que permanecía sin descubrirse, sin relucir en un pueblo ávido de cultura.

Pienso que en San Antonio de los Baños, la Casa de Cultura “Raymundo Valenzuela” destaca el quehacer de muchos jóvenes pertenecientes al Movimiento de Artistas Aficionados. Sus afiliados, por ejemplo, solistas o declamadores, participan habitualmente en peñas, espectáculos, jornadas recreativas o galas político- culturales del municipio, un ejemplo del uso adecuado que se hace de la institución en el Ariguanabo.

Hemos escuchado además sobre la Brigada de Instructores de Arte “José Martí”, integrada por 14 jóvenes graduados en diferentes cursos de esta especialidad. En mi opinión, vale resaltar el mérito de aquellos de sus miembros que apoyan la realización de los talleres de apreciación y creación, específicamente en manifestaciones de literatura, danza y música.

Durante este verano los talleres constituyen uno de los regalos brindados por la Casa de Cultura a los niños y jóvenes del municipio. Además se trabaja mediante actividades de extensión en difundir los conocimientos teóricos y prácticos sobre el arte, así como los números culturales de los instructores por los cinco Consejos Populares y las 59 circunscripciones ariguanabenses.

Es el bregar de la Casa de Cultura, alma comunitaria que llega a todos los que gustan del arte, una vía para el disfrute y la recreación sana, con sus puertas abiertas a favor del bienestar social.

Agatha Mary Clarissa Miller, better known as Agatha Christie, was an English writer specializing in the police and romantic genres, whose work received international recognition.

Began to write her first stories from an early age and during World War II, she served as a nurse in a hospital, a profession which she defined as "one of the most rewarding jobs anyone can have". She also worked on a nearest clinic belonging to the Red Cross, which had some influence on her works and that many of the reported murders were carried out with poison.

Most of her novels and stories have been made ​​into a film, some on more than one occasion, such as Murder on the Orient Express and Death on the Nile. One exception was a film entitled “Agatha” in 1979 by the British Michael Apted, where was taken the figure of the writer: her mysterious disappearance for several days in 1920.

Lejanía sinónimo de Nostalgia

Un año después regreso a este comentario, mi mente vuela en retroceso, otro invierno y mi nostalgia es más grande y la distancia es la misma, hija de mi vida ese mismo frio que sientes por el baño de la nieve que intenta cubrir tu cuerpo es el que siente mi corazón sin ti, aún el camino es incierto solo tengo que seguir y aprender como dice el dúo cubano Buena Fe "Volar sin tí"

Gardel dijo "20 años no es nada" pero 40 días significan demasiado, escucharte anoche despertó mi musa de la añoranza. Cuando se ha vivido una vida intensa y maternal, cuando concebirte=amarte, sentirte=amarte, parirte=amarte hasta el último de mis días, cuando dejas de respirar para respirar por alguien, cuando dejas de mirar para mirar por los ojos de alguien, cuando tu corazón late por dos, cuando una semilla fue plantada dentro de ti, creció y se desarrolló un hermoso árbol, cuando ese amor incomparable y desbordado de cuidados, mimos, educación y valores solo cabe pensar en nuestro hijo o hija; pequeña palabra e inmensa en significado, cuando esa presencia de repente no está, un gran vacío te ahoga, lágrimas que acarician tu rostro, suspiros hondos que te dejan sin aliento, buscas y no encuentras !Hija mia no estás a mi lado!, mi pequeña infante de nombre Irlandés, atraída en mi juventud por el boom de Sinéad O Connor y su canción "Nothing compares to you"; justamente en el año de tu nacimiento (1992) y no me equivoqué porque: "Nada se compara contigo", para todos eres SHINEID. Ausente como tantos ariguanabenses, pero TU estás al otro lado del mar, ese mar infinito que separa tantas y tantas familias pero TU estas siempre y muy dentro de mi corazón. 
Pero no deja de ser la Lejanía sinónimo de Nostalgia Desde la Villa del Humor.
Te amo mi querida hija

John Lennon: the soul of Liverpool

On Monday, December 8^th, 1980, John Lennon was murdered by five shots of Mark David Chapman at the entrance of the building where he lived, Dakota building. Lennon had just returned from Record Plant Studio with his wife, Yoko Ono.

John Lennon was an influential British rock musician who gained fame worldwide for being one of the founding members of the band The Beatles, his solo career, and for his work as political activist against the war.

He was pronounced dead on his arrival at St. Luke's -Roosevelt Hospital Center, where he also said that no one could have lived more than a few minutes after sustaining such injuries, having lost the 80 % of his blood. Soon after, local news stations reported Lennon's death, so a crowd at Roosevelt Hospital in front of Dakota building.

He was cremated on December 10^th, 1980, at the Ferncliff Cemetery in Hartsdale, New York, the ashes were given to Ono, who decided not to hold a funeral for him, although several homages and tributes were held in his honor.

Thirty years after the murder, Chapman admitted for the first time that he was sorry for what he did, in early August 2010 at the parole board that denied his release: "I feel that now, at 55, I have a greater understanding of what a human life is, I've changed a lot. I'm embarrassed. That's my first thought. I regret what I did".

This abominable act made ​​the admirers of the British band The Beatles lost one of its members, John Winston Lennon, his birth name. Lennon, besides being an amazing musician, was also admired for his ideas in favor of justice and social progress.

Women and menopause

We often hear older women talk about menopause, because it is a process by which we must necessarily pass. In exchange the keywords appear "no longer good for anything", is considered an old criteria or who have lost abilities as a woman. These misconceptions are always associated with distress, anxiety or depression. Some associate this stage the permanent cessation of menstruation, without considering the social and cultural as well as feelings and emotional reactions associated with this time of life.
 
The most common warning of the onset of menopause are menstrual disorders; periods may be more scarce or more abundant than usual.  Menstruate early, at irregular intervals and even more than once a month or months without reaching it.

In fact, menopause is called the elimination of menstrual flow and is known as climacteric period comprising some years before and after the cessation of menstruation.

The suppression of menstruation, should not be taken as a symptom of old age, as recommended in this case to cope and give new meaning to life. The advice and supervision of a doctor help mitigate much discomforts of this stage, which need not be considered different from others.
