If I Could…..

Unlocking The Hidden Me

If I could, I would be a nightingale

Sitting on the boughs and singing my tales

And everyone loving my voice

Even though the fables being of my choice

I would freely soar high without any end

And thus setting up my own new trend.

If I could, I would time travel

Rectifying my past mistakes beyond my level

Reliving twice the most happy moments

Not caring much then, I now lament

Doing what I didn’t at that time

And setting up subtly my new paradigm.

If I could, I would be a phoenix

Even if I fall after a jinx

I would again rise and arise

Much stronger than my previous size

Not just I will sit back and regret

And falsely assume that I can never move ahead playing my already run out cassette

If I could, I would become invisible

And thus becoming highly invincible

perhaps wolves domesticated humans rather than the other way around, meaning that it was the wolves who changed the nature of our relationship first. In this scenario wolf populations living near humans may have learned to poach at the edges of settlements, perhaps eating the bones or other refuse that humans discarded. The more cute and friendly wolves would have had more success at this strategy, while the more aggressive wolves would have been killed or driven off. This could have led to a subpopulation of friendly wolves mostly living off of human refuse. Selective pressures could have then quickly domesticated these proto-dog wolves, who were only later taken as companions by humans. Human selection would then have taken them the rest of the way to modern dogs. Source: Evolution of Dogs | NeuroLogica Blog

L’Accecante Stregoneria dell’Oro

Our elders didn’t know about money. … Money doesn’t protect us… it doesn’t create our joy. For whites it’s different. They cannot dream of spirits like us. They prefer to ignore that the work of shamans is to protect the earth, both for us and for our children and for them and theirs. “

Come afferma il portavoce degli Yanomami Davi Kopenawa nel suo libro “La caduta del cielo”: “Per i più grandi, l’oro era solo schegge luccicanti nella sabbia del letto del fiume, come mica. L’hanno raccolto per creare una sostanza di stregoneria progettata per i ciechi con cui erano arrabbiati. … Questa polvere di metallo era temuta. Ecco perché chiamiamo i luccicanti frammenti di metallo che i cercatori scavano dai letti dei fiumi oru hipëre a: l’abbagliante stregoneria dell’oro. Quando i bianchi prendono i minerali dal terreno, li macinano con le loro macchine e li riscaldano nelle loro fabbriche … L’oro e altri minerali sono cose pericolose e cattive che portano solo malattia e morte. … Sebbene questo metallo sia il più bello e il più forte che puoi trovare per costruire le tue macchine e le tue merci, è pericoloso per…
