On Father’s Day

I’ve spoken about my father’s human qualities in previous articles. These included helping anyone who needed it.

The other day I ventured to the La Rampa movie theater. I arrived after walking quite a few blocks under the scorching afternoon sun.

I could feel Mozart’s spirit, that white light and its shadow. An intimate, healing vibration, despite the sadness embued in this music.

There are aspects that I do not want to fail to mention, one of them is the way in which the number of femicides has grown lately in Cuba.

Departures will intensify with the new 2-year sponsorship measure, of Cubans living in the US. Another way to leave & then opt for residency.

We shouldn’t feel sorry for ourselves, we’re still here, Magaly told me – a friend from my teenage years who used to live in my neighborhood

I remember an image from my youth. I see my sister and me, looking for dry branches in the flower beds to put together a Christmas tree.

Being sad is a natural state, something that comes over you all of a sudden and you can’t stop it. I’ve been sad since last week…

We all have an intimate inner world where we can do incredible things and create a better world for ourselves.

Looking back at the past is a nostalgic act, an attempt to capture the indefinite. You can’t turn back the hands of time.
