Looking at ancient ruins

I don’t know where this picture was taken.

Looks very ancient, part of a house in the middle of a small valley, taken on early morning or located at some altitude where the weather always involves mist. This is almost all you can say looking at the picture.

But there is more; you can imagine that the people who build it, may have been very happy to create a refuge, against the winds. A lot of work to find and carry all stones, but important to withstand the weather forces. A small window, to give more protection, but with a view.

One can imagine all stories within the walls, as is the case when a stone house becomes a home. How many generations developed in this place? How many children abandoned their parents to find their own homes? How many tales the walls will tell if this were possible?

What will happen to our houses with the past of the times? For sure we will not leave vestiges to be looked at for future inhabitants. Maybe they will be demolished and new housing ideas constructed. There will be no memories to look at. Maybe the ones that will last were the ones that stand today and we cherished as an important part of our past. And maybe only will survive the ones stored  in our memory

Law trials

Law trials can be an spectacle where a variety of personality and character traits are displayed, by each of the parties in conflict, all aiming to get the best results for their causes. There would be the case of perfidiou s, treacherous   strategies, developed to confuse and detract facts and events from the truth. Even precociou s defense   lawyers, early understand   that applying this approach will give them some advantage in difficult cases.

Therefore , the importance   to   detect spurious arguments, by applying rigorous investigative methods to substantiate theories and   conspiracies.

D on't stop - Walt Whitman (1819-1892) Today,  looking for an essay  subject    ...... I ran into this poem, very inspirational. Can not avoid copying it here, in this way is captured  and I can go back and read it anytime I want.  Don't stop  Do not let the day end without having grown a little,  without having been happy , without having increased your dreams. Do not let yourself be overcomed by discouragement. Do not let anyone take away the right to express yourself, which is almost a must. Do not give up the desire to make your life something e xtraordinary. Do not stop believing that words and poetry can change the world. No matter what, our essence is intact. We are passion-full beings  Life is a desert and an oasis. It knocks us down, it hurts us, it teaches us. It makes us protagonists of our own history. Although the wind blows against,  The powerful works continues: You can contribute with one stanza. Ne...

A trip to the cottage and beer....

A trip to the cottage is always an adventure. Several unexpected activities will lead to experiment sensations never imagined. Sometimes these encounters with nature and the corresponding rewards are different pending the personality and user customs. For example, the indiscriminate use of beer and alcoholic beverages will reduce the effects and outputs of the event, as your senses will be compromised. Will be necessary to exhibit bravery avoiding the enhancement of the senses expected from the use of alcohol. It can be possible that your beliefs can be changed, giving different properties to regular, normal objects or things. For example, the unexpected visit of a wolf can be welcomed as coming from a domesticated animal, like let’s say a cow , with very different outcomes and possible not very pleasant consequences. On the other hand, the experience can be remembered as a hilarious situation to be referenced always in the future as amazing or funny.
