A different perspective of the world we live in, is my reality. To much "common sense" in existing societies, but as humans, we personally observe, the people around us, the world, the very existence and our personal value. For that, Carpe Diem is the motto of this blog. Global wakening, unity, in a personal but also social and political view, where art have a privileged place. I do not set goals for happiness, my future memories are being made now, in each present.
This was a more personal Blog, a few years ago, where I've used my passion for creative writing, in my mother language, Portuguese. But, as all of us, during these last years, my passion has turned to the Global awakening, happening in the last decades. Mainly, a Human view.
This Global movement, that especially, has grown so much through internet accessibility, it has allowed the contact between different cultures and mentalities. A more reasonable understanding of our differences and for sure our personal development, once that this kind of connection is not so manipulated by mainstream media.
Once that I don't want to change all my previous creations, I will leave the blog just as it is, so this way a better understanding of my personal metamorphosis, will be better perceptible..
My love for writing is now expressed in different ways, considering my state of mind, not following any pattern, which would limit myself and my writing. I don't look for inspiration. I'm instead inspired within triggers of photography, simple events, people or even just a sentence that sparks in my mind. Is my own way of putting out a turmoil of emotions and thoughts. My way to express the love I have for life, for people, but also my deep interest in our modern international system, shaping societies, politics and religious studies.
Consequently, I also share contents of writers, personalities, journalists, politicians,Humanists, anyone that inspires my writing, properly identified.
Feel free to share your thoughts and comments!
Carpe Diem for you all!

Because life is just a breath...

 'O Tempo leva-nos tudo,

e tudo leva tempo.
Leva-nos o estar ao pe dos nossos,
leva-nos a decidir entre sonhos e projectos,
a nao aprendermos um instrumento,
a nao nos dedicarmos a arte,
a fazermos prioridades apesar de adorarmos tudo...
Leva-nos pessoas,
leva-nos momentos nao mais recuperaveis,
a sair com uma meia de cada cor,
a beber o cafe frio,
a vermos a luz do comeco e fim do dia...
Porque nao nos levas a saudade Tempo maldito?...' - Vanusa Bogalho


 'Se tudo pudesse ser desfeito,

nada seria feito pensado.
Tudo seria somente jogadas,
sem perdas,
sem vitorias,
sem um acelarar de batimentos,
sem medo,
ai o medo...
tira-nos tudo...
Mas de que nos valeria um contexto vazio?...
Como estatuas frias preenchidas por espaco e tempo?...
Sem aspiracoes ou riscos?
Sem dor ou alegrias?
O que nao dariamos para desfazer o desfeito...' - Vanusa Bogalho

'The same feeling is never lived twice in a lifetime...
It is always a different millisecond,
no matter how similar it is with whatever we lived before...
The same emotion will never come back again,
It is always a different heart beat...
no matter how much our pulse tell us the same everyday...
The same breath does never fill our lungs in the same way...
It is always inconstant and unconscious,
no matter the apparent same filling in our chest...
But that's what makes life interesting...
Because all different feelings keep us learning,
because every different heart beat keep us going,
and every single different breath give us hope.' - Vanusa Bogalho

'Desnecessario'
'O querer levar pessoas a fazer certas escolhas e seguir certos caminhos, nao nos cabe a nos. Nao tentemos ocupar o lugar de quem representa esse papel. A cada um cabe a sua liberdade de vida. Nao facamos das nossas accoes 'nobres', quando na verdade serao actos covardes de omnipresenca. Nao pensemos que podemos fazer uma jogada como se fossemos donos do destino. So esse entende. So esse sabe o que vai dentro de cada um. Ate porque quando se pensa somos donos de conhecimento, logica e decisao, na verdade nao se sabe nada. Pensam que. Mas nunca saberao, pois seguranca e silencio e ignorancia. Felizes dos que. A maioria nao entende 'forca'. Entendem como se no fundo se dependesse e esperasse por algo. Nao percebem o ganho que existe e nada se esperar. Fazem parte do senso comum que sao as nossas sociedades, completamente presivisiveis.' - Vanusa Bogalho

'Let us fall into the folly of life,
Where anything goes,
except being sane.
Let us be.' - Vanusa Bogalho
'My world is fun,
Colorful and flowery,
My world is sinister,
Designed in black and white,
Bypassed with charcoal,
simple,
positive.
My world is strong,
Made of claw and armor,
tireless,
positive.
My world is only mine.' - Vanusa Bogalho
'Confidence is not conquered. 
Is built in the midst of many falls and losses,
entwined in thorns where sometimes the sun does not reach,
not a single drop of heat,
not a single sign of hope,
when the last seed within us takes the remaining piece of soul,
and fights, and surpasses step by step and recovers...
A development... becoming a vicious cycle where our rise builds the 'so called' confidence.
After that, there's only challenges.' - Vanusa Bogalho
