My Green Country

As I seek for a leisure time reviewing an online Portuguese newspaper, specifically 'Público', I notice a little banner in the right top corner of the page really green. Obviously such green advertise is expected to offer some green information with title Green Portugal Map. It is a funny idea using Google Maps service where you can place your green contribution to a better environment. Just place where you live and describe your environment friendly acts during your quotidian life, maybe even telling people some curiosities or ingenious ideas you have Voting Earth. I already stated some comments, in Portuguese, just give also something... just for fun... and read other comments, you might find some ideas appealing.

My New Identity


Yes, I know... A title like this sounds more auspicious, but due to the number of hours of wait just for today I guess the magnitude of receiving this ID achieves an elevated degree... To grant this statement just ask someone already with a Citizen Card.

P.S. - I believe you did not expected to see an absolutely clear picture...

My Sports Running

First of all, the identification of run related with sports. Purely physic. Because you can run away from something, metaphorically, and that's purely psychological. Ok it also can be physic if that 'something' is really someone with whom you had a 'disagreement' and things can become rough. This time we stay in the sports. So this run of mine has the key reason in my attempt of a full recovery of my knee, strengthening all muscles/sinews around in such area. My lack of judgment about anatomical aspects does not allow me to inform you what specifically fibers where affected in the caused impact and I also do not remember the exact words uttered by the orthopedist who received me in the emergency room. I also confess that this weakness exists since about one year ago, with no adequate solution to heal it taken by me at least visiting another doctor. I also believe in the strengthening which I never correctly performed constantly. I will try that also (four 'also' in four sentences in a row… not bad… maybe one day I will write a post where I use a randomly peaked word in every sentence… and I know I wrote another 'also' but does not count in the row) because I do believe it would really improve towards my absolutely full recovery where after I can spread some magic away through, not the fields but in my usual case the pavilion. Despite the health concern which is absolutely appraisable, when I run it is an opportunity to sweat all my bad feelings and thoughts from my mind. I unburden in every step I take feeling the hard pavement being pressed below my feet pushing my body ahead over and over again. It is the complete sensation of independence where all concerns travel around your head with no purpose for solution. They just lay there in your mind waiting for an opportunity to make your life miserable because during such running nothing affects you…

My Alentejo

I intended to post a video now and my choice fall in the beautiful documentary broadcasted by SIC (Portuguese TV broadcaster…but obviously a Natural World documentary offered by BBC) about the biodiversity existing not only in my country but specifically in my region in opposition with another video, this one broadcasted by TVI (another Portuguese TV broadcaster) where words like corrupt are placed in the same sentence as the name of the prime minister from the country where I live... Back to the beauty, the so called ‘montado’ is described so beautifully in the documentary and is presented all his charm, environmental importance and magnificent splendor that actually surprised me seen this way. I just watched it here in the Internet and it is my intention to share it with you as I am dazzled. The title is Creatures of the Cork Forest and also presents a discussion about the natural corks stoppers placed in wine bottles being substituted by an artificial seal. After this… I definitely vote for natural corks. I left you with an ancestral Portuguese proverb about the importance of the years in this beautiful scenario which is important to preserve:
"Vinhas das minhas,
Olivais dos meus pais,
E montados dos meus antepassados…"
