So that's what I'd like to be able to keep in mind for 2011. The journalist wrote the Brazilian Martha Medeiros, even if it is almost always associated with Pablo Neruda.
me looms a very busy year, from all points of view. I'd like to avoid the routine often forced by the frenzied pace and the daily problems that surrounded him without leaving time and respite.

Greetings to you all, for a peaceful year!
He or she who becomes the slave of,
repeating every day the same itineraries, who does not change the brand,
who does not risk and change the color of the clothes, does not talk to those who do not know.
He or she who shuns passion, who prefers black on white
, dotting the "i" rather than a set of emotions,
the kind that make your eyes glimmer, that turn a yawn
a smile, that make the heart beat before
mistakes and feelings.
He or she who does not overthrow the table when is unhappy at work,

the kind that make your eyes glimmer, that turn a yawn
a smile, that make the heart beat before
mistakes and feelings.
He or she who does not overthrow the table when is unhappy at work,
who does not risk certainty for uncertainty, to chase a dream,
those who do not allow, at least once in their lives to flee from sensate advises.
He or she who does not travel, does not read,
who does not listen to music, who does not find grace in himself. ;
Dies slowly he who destroys self-esteem, who does not accept help;
who passes his days complaining of his bad luck or the incessant rain.
Dies slowly he who abandons a project before starting it,
Dies slowly he who abandons a project before starting it,
who does not ask questions on matters not knows
who does not answer when asked about something he knows.
We avoid death in small doses, remembering always that to be alive
requires an effort far greater than the simple act of breathing.
Only a burning patience will lead to attainment of a splendid happiness.
(Martha Medeiros)
