the taller steps

Posted on Tuesday, July 29th, 2008

or life is full of “automatism”. we always know how tall a step is when climbing it, we never tumble. when entering a door we always know how tall it is or if we have to bent so that we wouldn’t hit our head. when out for a coffee, we feel with our hand whether it is too hot to drink. when dancing we almost never hit other couples, we are able to appreciate the distances. blindfolded, and the still wouldn’t miss our mouth when eating. we never stick the cigar in our nose, even if we do not concentrate on where the mouth is. these are things, we have learn or have learn to appreciate correctly through practice, and now we never concentrate on them anymore.

 

and yet, we never know, when meeting a person whether to take a step forward or backward.

 

we never learn from a bad relationship. we never learn from our mistakes. not repeating them implies deep thinking, analyzing, and concentration. in our lives, there are always “taller step” to tumble upon and fall. and we are never able to appreciate their height. we never feel how close we are to the abyss. we always take one more step. or, at least, not taking it requires concentration.

we seldom “not get burnt” by instinct…

the beginning…the end

Posted on Saturday, July 26th, 2008

everything that has a beginning has an end. one of my worst fears.

sometimes a years lasts 14 months. this is how long it takes sometimes to end a thing the second time… to be more accurate about14 months and a week.

so what have we learn in the meanwhile? to be better? to be part of a group? friendship? loyalty? MODESTY???

what have we achieved? some broken friendships? a bunch of lies? how not to be part of a group…or better…how to leave it creating waves, breaking people apart? show how cocky you are? how much better and special than the others? finding whom to blame??? learning to play poker? not dancing anymore?

so how was last night? a normal party, no special lights, just some candles. people dancing, as usual, entrance fee of about 4-8 eur/person including all the drinks in the bar…the best offer ever. some faces not belonging anymore, but with the guts up to the sky…

Disgusting… The king has died…Long live the king.

so, no more salsa club. no more our second home. let’s party. and, even better, us, having left, having opened another salsa school, let’s come to celebrate! yes…

on Thursday the first salsa night in Music Pub. we’ve gotta do it well.

it’s time to wake up, time to gather and act. time to be a school. time to be together…will we?

mirrors

Posted on Thursday, July 10th, 2008

it is so hard to talk sometimes… there’s this man you’ve admired for i don’t know…like 12 years. even since the moment you’ve met him you felt you’ve met him before, that you’ve known him for always.  you’ve always known him strong, funny, open and so much above all these stupid problems we run into everyday.  in a way, you compare him with your father…you feel he will always be there for you.

and yet he comes today to talk…like you always do, open. yet today he tells it all.  in… like 10 simple words. all the fears… all your future  fears. all the regrets… all your future regrets… all his sadness… all your future sadness. feeling like this, like looking into a mirror of the future, how could i have helped him? i tried to find my words, the best ones, to tell him it’s ok, yet i couldn’t.

i’ll have to talk to him again.
