  • I have visitors

    I have visitors this month (actually from last Friday until just after Christmas). I’ll try to continue posting, but you’ll see a huge drop on the frequency of posts. The drop actually has already stated last week as I was preparing the house… And most likely I’ll be posting more pictures than writing, as that’s Read more

  • The law of attraction

    I attract to my life whatever I give my attention, energy and focus to, whether positive or negative. – Michael Losier at high school “Hi, your sister is at the Catholic University, right? So is my brother. That’s so cool. I guess I’ll try to get there to. How about you?” “No! No way I’m Read more

  • Unwritten

    “Oh boy. I’m so happy that we’re together. I’ve been dreaming about you for a long time. So how about dinner tomorrow night.” “That’d be awesome, but tomorrow I can’t, sorry.” “Oh, ok. Why not? Family event?” “Not really. Tomorrow I’ll be having dinner with my boyfriend.” “What? What do your mean? I am your Read more

  • BFF

    Her best friend has moved to a different country, on another continent, at the other end of the ocean. She passes by the beach and stops to look at that immense mass of water. She squints her eyes trying to see her friend. But it’s no use, her friend is too far… This post was Read more

  • Angels

    She saved my life. She found me laying naked at the woods behind her neighborhood. I was cold and feverish. My back was hurt. 2 big cuts near my shoulder blades. I had no idea of who, where, when and why I was. My mind was completely blank. They said it was amnesia and she Read more

  • The Fire Whisperer

    No one knows how the fire started, and even how it stopped. Everything happened too fast. The village was quiet that night. Not many people on the streets at that late hour. Except by Brandy Brady, the town’s official drunk. The bar had been closed for almost 2 hours, but Brady was still wandering around, Read more

  • Phones

    When I was a teenager, there were no cell phones. We had a landline at home. Just one. Our phone had wires. But not those long ones that you could bring to other rooms. So when in the phone we had to be either in the living room or at my parents bedroom. At that Read more

  • Feathers

    As a kid, his favorite dish was fried chicken. The crunchiness of the outside followed by the tender juicy meat on the inside. Then he set up his mind that when he grew up he’d raise chicken just to be able to eat them everyday. On his 15th birthday, he got his first chicken. It Read more

  • A lost key

    I was running late for a meeting and in the rush I dropped my key. She saw me dropping it, grabbed it and came after me. “Sir, sir, you lost your key.” I couldn’t go on without my key, so in spite of the hurry I had to stop. And when I turned to grab Read more

  • To Do

    My To Do list is incredibly strong and grows much faster than I’m able to get to it. It almost looks like it feeds on Miracle-Gro or something! And you know what’s the problem with it? The bigger it grows, the lazier I get. I guess I feel overwhelmed just to look at it. I’ve Read more
