Today, 06 August 2022, marks the 77th anniversary of the bombing of Hiroshima by the United States.  This post is partly a repost of the one I did two years ago, but I have updated it and added just a bit.  I know many disagree with me, but in my opinion, the bombing of Hiroshima,…

Amor não machuca

Pensamentos.me/VEM comigo!

No dia a dia, é muito comum na relação amorosa, o trabalho, o estresse, a falta de tempo, ou até mesmo, situações tensas bloquear o estado emocional do casal. Inclusive, esse resultado impactar na vida a dois, assim como na qualidade da saúde da relação. E, por falar em saúde da relação, muitos casais, não tem tempo, não conversam, não dizemo o que é importante. Por isso, se distanciam do que deveriam enxergar com clareza.

Além disso, é possível constatar algumas atitudes que revelam comportamentos agressivos e forçosos, o que interfete muito nas atitudes.

Goodbye Filthy Russia

Grounds For Hope

Goodbye filthy Russia - a country of tyrants 
Country of fear and cold hearts
The land that stuck in the mid of ages
Hating future, present, and past. 
Goodbye filthy Russia- you never knew freedom
For you feel protected behind tzars
Behind your KGB-ruled orthodox religion 
In golden phelonions concealing guns.
Goodbye filthy Russia – get ready for break ups
Tatarstan and Bashkiria are at the door
Komi and Khabarovsk will keep the light shining
Their longing for freedom must be restored.
Goodbye filthy Russia - a land of deception 
Where fiction precedes truth
Where decency sensed as an enemy 
Where shepherds of sheep turned to wolves. 
Goodbye filthy Russia – you are cruel 
Cast ominous shadows over innocent lives
Unsatisfied thirst for blood - for the sake of power
Poisoning souls, killing dreams with sharpened knives.

The U.S. still has a chance to fix itself before 2024. But when democracies start dying—as ours already has—they usually don’t recover.  By Brian KlaasIn 2009, a violent mob stormed the presidential palace in Madagascar, a deeply impoverished red-earthed island off the coast of East Africa. They had been incited to violence by opportunistic politicians and media personalities, successfully triggering a coup. A few years later, I traveled to the island, to meet the new government’s ringleaders, the same men who had unleashed the mob.

As we sipped our coffees and I asked them questions, one of…
