Liars tell tales and when confronted they put the blame on being misconstrued. Compulsive liars can’t be restrained. We have to train our ears to listen intently to what people say so as to be able to separate truth from fiction. © Norma Bobb-Semple 2021

Aumento do desmatamento na Amazônia coloca em dúvida a capacidade do Brasil de cumprir acordos assinados na COP-26 —

Brasil assumiu compromisso de zerar o desmatamento até 2030, mas 13,2 km² de florestas foram derrubadas em um ano, aumento de quase 22% em relação aos 12 meses anteriores Entre 1º de agosto de 2020 e 31 de julho deste ano, o desmatamento na Amazônia atingiu a marca de 13.235 quilômetros quadrados, um aumento de[…]
CALL ME WEIRD

call me weird and I’d be glad,
because it means I am different.
.
call me strange and I wouldn’t change,
for I am just being true to me.
.
call me unusual and I’d like that,
as the usual can never be unique.
.
call me abnormal and I would feel perfect,
for normal is overrated.
.
call me all of these things
and I wouldn’t even mind,
for normal exists as different things
to different people.

Can’t see the forest for the trees
The reason I write so much is to think/pray about things I feel are important. And in hopes others might see ways they can engage in these struggles. We need massive numbers of people to make the radical changes outlined below immediately. I know people have been hearing this for years but we have two choices today. If we continue to delay we will absolutely continue to see escalating environmental chaos. I try to describe the alternative here.
Writing yesterday’s post, Canadian pipeline and railway protests, I sensed many of my friends would disagree with the idea of sabotage. And question why a white male would be so focused on Indigenous ways in general, and the Wet’suwet’en actions to protect their water, land and culture specifically.
All of my words might result in people not being able to see my view of the forest for the trees. So…

Pasiunea, arta de a trăi!

Se spune că „la finalul vieții, nu contează anii din viața ta, ci viața din anii tăi” (Abraham Lincoln) sau, altfel spus, că nu putem da zile vieții, însă putem da viață zilelor noastre. Dar oare ce înseamnă acest lucru pentru fiecare dintre noi?
Pentru mine personal… înseamnă ca orice lucru pe care îl fac , să fie făcut cu pasiune, și dăruire completă de sine.
Din perspectiva vieții, remarcăm că pasiunea ne face să ne gândim cel mai adesea la: iubire, plăcere, dedicare, muncă, libertate, bucurie, implicare, dăruire etc.
Prin urmare, dacă ar fi să sintetizăm într-o definiție, atunci pasiunea înseamnă a te implica cu dăruire și angajament într-o activitate, relație, sau un proces, care te bucură și te împlinește, în care simți iubire și care îți oferă sentimentul de a fi liber, de a te simți în largul tău.
Totuși, dacă ar fi să încercăm să dăm o…

Dia Mundial de Luta contra a AIDS
” Só em 2020, 410.000 jovens entre 10 e 24 anos foram infectados pelo HIV”, dos quais 150.000 eram adolescentes entre 10 e 19 anos. [ UNESCO BRASIL]
Esse 1° de dezembro vem alertar a sociedade sobre importância da Luta contra a AIDS. É uma data escolhida pela Organização Mundial de Saúde ( OMS) desde 1988 no Brasil e tem o objetivo de chamar atenção da sociedade, não só para o problema, mas também para tentar diminuir o preconceito que muitas pessoas sofrem por conta da doença. A data simbólica representa um grande passo pela conquista do respeito, assim como, reforça a questão da tolerância com as pessoas infectadas pelo HIV.
A Aids é uma doença causada pelo vírus HIV, que pode ser transmitida não só por sexo, mas também transfusão sanguínea e objetos perfurocortantes. É importante dizer que não se pega Aids por abraços ou aperto de mão.

World AIDS Day in Jamaica: lighting a candle after 30 years
As I wait for the virtual Annual Candlelight Vigil to emerge from Zoom-land, I indulge in some memories. If I was to use that well worn cliché, I would call them “bittersweet.” For several years during the 1990s, I attended these vigils on the front lawn of what was then the headquarters of Jamaica AIDS Support for Life(JASL). These were emotional occasions. As the names of those who had died from AIDS during the year were read out, there were tears – sometimes loudly expressed, at other times soft and quiet. They were very personal moments for many. And the list in those days was quite unbearably long.

The old house that was JASL’s office was knocked down some years ago. It has been replaced by one of the cold, characterless apartment blocks that are going up all over the jaded, overcrowded, and over-trafficked neighborhood just north of New…
