"Relativiza..."

A lot happenned on the last 2 weeks... from contract complications, to friends losing their jobs, to be "homeless" for a few days... 
Thank God for friends who hold my hand and helped me through...

Specially one person, who on a few lines of an e-mail made think about how simple life is and how I should overcome these difficulties...

She made think how I should face this... 

"...I still do not like my job but I have to give thanks for what I have. A large portion of the world population does not have the opportunities that we have and we only have it because we have a paid job."
 ..." you live in a dream city, close to friends and familly and you can visit them often..."

So true...  Life is SO simple...How can we be so blind by jealousy and guilt that we don't see it???....

As I once heard saying... It may never be perfect but it can always be great..."

Obrigado!! ;D

Her MAjestie's will be next...

And the race keeps on... A. joins me and together we will rock London!!!!

"Someday you might find your hero
Some say you might lose your mind
I'm keeping my head down now for the summer
I'm outta of my mind let me pull me another
I'm gonna take that tiger outside for a ride
What a Life!
What a Life!
Keep on chasing down that rainbow
You'll never know what you might find
Over the sunset on the horizon
Maybe you'll dream but it tastes like poison
I'm gonna take that tiger outside for a ride" - Noel Gallagher - AKA What a life

Where I will go next...

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” – Mark Twain

Milano preparatevi! =D

Bonjour...

"If you are lucky enough to have lived in Paris as a young man, then wherever you go for the rest of your life, it stays with you, for Paris is a moveable feast." - Ernest Hemingway

Lost parisian thoughts...

"Time is tricky. You have whole months, even years, when nothing changes a speck, when you don't go anywhere or do anything or think one new thought. And then you can get hit with a day or an hour, or half a second, when so much happens its almost like you are born all over agin into some brand-new person you for damn sure never expected to meet..."

Breakdown sets in...

"It is my confirmed belief that we are on this earth to evolve our souls. We are spiritual beings who have taken on flesh and blood to experience that which could not be earned in the higher realms of Spirit.

When young I thought that life was meant to be fun. Many still think along these lines but the truth is that life is meant to challenge us for growth. No unpruned rose grows into its innate magnificence... so too do we need to submit to the pruning of our beings by the Higher power.

It carves out a depth in us that means we are capable of holding more joy, compassion and wisdom. Yes, a gift... hidden in very heavy disguise."

"Don't point your gun
My hands are on the ground
I'm turning myself in
A thousand hiding-places
a million concealed faces
And none could stop my suffering..." 

"Fo#$-se!!! Basta..."

 

There is alway a time in life when you have to say "Fo#$-se!!! Basta..."

And in bad days here come good news... Maybe changing is coming earlier then I thought... :D

Life is Beautiful (on its own way...) #happy

 

"And you can't always get what you want, honey.
You can't always get what you want.
You can't always get what you want.
But if you try sometimes, yeah,
You just might find you get what you need!.."

It goes on...

"Might as well share, might as smile, life goes on for a little bitty while..."

"Morning will come,
And I'll do what's right;
Just give me till then
To give up this fight.

And I will give up this fight..."

Thanks God for the conforting sounds...

It was awful, super complicated and full of work day... Good I had these "Comforting Sounds" to accompany me...

"It's hard to make sense,
feels as if I'm sensing you through a lens.
If someone else comes,
I'll just sit here listening to the drums. " 

By this days... around Paris...

Today I made the counts... 

I am Paris for:

488 days or:

• 42,163,200 seconds
• 702,720 minutes
• 11,712 hours
• 69 weeks (rounded down)

It seems it was yesterday that I came here...

Regrets?? none...
dreams?? a lot...
happy moments?? dozens...
people?? big friends appeared, some since the beginning, others more recently...
expectation?? high...
My biggest obstacle?? Myself...

So for the moment the melody rolls smoothly...

"let your heart follow the rhythm
when the voice give you emotion
you have fulfill peace
When the butterfly dances in the sky
when it won't see what you're like

you've got the good sensation 

you've got the good vibration..."

Por estes dias...

Cada vez mais não sei que dizer...
Cada vez mais acho que estou a cair num precipicio do qual não sei a saida...

Até que te vejo e tudo muda...
Com um sorriso contagiante, chegas e iluminas o mais cinzento dos dias...

Mas continuo sem saber que te dizer...
Continuo com o meu problema de expressão...

"O teu mundo está tão perto do meu
E o que digo está tão longe,
Como o mar está do céu.

Só pra dizer que te Amo
Não sei porquê este embaraço
Que mais parece que só te estimo.

E até nos momentos em que digo que não quero
E o que sinto por ti são coisas confusas
E até parece que estou a mentir,
As palavras custam a sair,
Não digo o que estou a sentir,
Digo o contrário do que estou a sentir..."

Moral of the last days...

Because YOU were here and are always... :)


"You're never alone, I'm always near,
When your troubled, down or blue.
All you have to do is call me,
I'm always here for you.
It doesn't matter where I'm at,
It doesn't matter when.
When you need someone to talk to,
I'm here to be your friend.
If you need someone to hold your hand,
or a hug to say I care.
If you need a shoulder to cry on,
for you I will be there.
So never think you are a burden,
when the weight gets to be to much.
You might find if look hard enough,
a good friend could be the right touch.
You're never alone, I'm always here,
through the good times and the bad.
I'm always here to be your friend,
I don't like to see you sad..."

This woman...

Did you ever fell for someone you shouldn't??
Someone you see everyday, everytime and with who you spend a lot of time...
Even if you don't want, you cant't stop thinking about her...
Think about her laugh...
Think about her smile...
Think about her touch...

This is the melody that goes around my life right now... Can't you see me???...

"This woman is crazy

Comes around now and then

And shouts some words at me.

I can't remember where we met

Up north near the border

Or down south by the sea.

She's wrong most of the times

But it's times when she's right

She really gets to me..."

Paris...

"France, her mystery
Her history
Around each corner
A story unfolds

The quiteness of La Seine
The elaborateness of Le Tour Eiffel
Paris I adorent
As it is you I explore
We have developed rapport

En Paris ces't ma couer
En Paris ces't ma maison

One day we will meet again
One day we will meet again..."

It is only the beginning...

It's only the beginning.
There's much more to be told.
The story's far from over,
with adventure greatly bold.
There is a new day coming.
The old day now is past.
Live this story in it's moment
and let your story last...

Dancing in the dark...

Sometimes just change the tune and y a masterpiece will sound something out of a dream... :)

"You can´t start a fire
You can´t start a fire without a spark
This gun´s for hire
Even if we´re just dancing in the dark"

You've got a friend...

'Cause sometimes you notice their importance out of nothing... And this was the melody that hit me today...

I'll be there always... =D

"When you're down and troubled
and you need some love and care and nothing, ooh, nothing is going right.
Close your eyes and think of me
and soon I will be there
to brighten up even your darkest nights. "

"watch"... like a lamp on a sidewalk...

Watch your thoughts, for they become words.
Watch your words, for they become actions.
Watch your actions, for they become habits.
Watch your habits, for they become character.
Watch your character, for it becomes your destiny.

destino...

Faz 1 ano que tomei as rédeas do meu destino... 
Segui em frente sem olhar para trás... 
Tinha de mudar de enfrentar novos desafios e abrir os horizontes...
Será este o meu destino???...
Não sei... Mas está a ser incrivel... =D

"Sem querer fazemos o destino

Sem querer seguimos um caminho

Sem querer..."  

Imagine yourself 11 months after...

Imagine yourself outside of your confort zone...

Imagine yourself living a true adventure...

Imagine yourself on a way different picture...

Imagine yourself transforming into someone better...

Imagine yourself being someone you never dreamed of.. :D

Change...

Change

"Many says, I want change
Want change in my time
Want change in my life
I want a change badly
I want change, many say

They pray for a change
They wish for a change
They look for a change
But they will not change
They just wait for change

It never happens to them
It will never ever happen
By mere prayer or wish
It must start from inside
With tons of determination

Change is not so easy
It takes lots of time
So it needs determination
The will to make change
The will to see change

Then only things will change
Then only time will change
Then only life will change
So go and get change
To see the bliss of change"

My life changed through the last months...

A big gap comes between us and the last time I wrote here... Why??? because i had to find my path...

My lifed changed... I'm no longer the same guy who walked away from home, who was afraid of new challenges, who thought his life was going to be sent doing boring stuff at his home place...

i am a new person, a new being with new ways of seing life, new ways of looking at things and new perspective of what to do with my life...

Do I regret it???? Not a bit... :D

"I saw the whole world from your eyes, at least the glimpse you let me see
And what a glimpse you let me see
But your eyes can never stretch, over boundaries made in stone
I’m afraid that’s what will be..."
