Ontem

Ontem foi um dia sorridente.

Fomos de comboio, e o rio com o mar acompanhava-nos.

Rimos, falamos de coisas importantes e de coisas das nossas profissões.

Não tivemos as conversas de encher balões porque concordamos que é uma perda de tempo!

Fazias demasiadas perguntas que secretamente me faziam corar...

Enquanto passeavamos debaixo de um sol aconchegante olhas-te o mar pela milésima vez e disses-te com o teu sotaque "Olha que lindo o mar a reflectir o sol, parecem sonhos de contos de fada (...)"!

És mais um mimoso na minha vida :)

Obrigada

As novas 7 Maravilhas do Mundo V

Sydney Opera House (1954 - 73) Sydney, Australia

"When the Sydney Opera House was finished in 1973, this landmark building - in the true sense of the expression, - put the whole continent of Australia on the world map. This building does not imitate or reflect what we generally imagine an opera house might look like, indeed, it is a completely abstract interpretation. The ability to create abstract art only developed after the invention of photography in the late 19th century, when painters first began to experiment with an abstract, cubist interpretation of reality.In short - vote for the Sydney Opera House, because it reflects- Abstraction & Creativity!"

Kiyomizu Temple - Kyoto, Japan

"Laid out in 794 A.D., the palaces and temples of Kyoto were the residences of Japan's emperors and shoguns for more than 1,000 years. The Japanese Emperor is enthroned at the Imperial Palace of Gosho. Among other significant works are the Higashi Nonganji and Nishi
Hoganji temple complexes, the Kinkakuji Temple with
its 'Golden Pavilion' and the Kiyomizu Temple, the temple
of “clear waters.” The Kyoto sites have been destroyed and
rebuilt many times throughout history and are today among
Asia's greatest cultural heritage sites."

Basílica de Santa Sofia - Istambul - Turquia

"The Hagia Sophia was erected during the reign of Emperor Justinian (532 - 537 A.D.), when the Byzantine Empire was at the height of its power and influence. The massive dome, which is the prominent architectural feature, has since often been used as a model for the design of Islamic mosques. Indeed, after the fall of Byzantium, the Hagia Sophia was converted into an Ottoman mosque. Today, the monument is a museum serving both Christians and Muslims."

Kremlin - Moscovo, Russia

"Built as a residence for Ivan I, the Kremlin was the official residence of the Czars until the 1917 Russian Revolution. Today, it still houses the President’s office. In front of the Kremlin is Red Square – an impressive and exuberant plaza which, for many people, is associated with the infamous May Day demonstrations. Rising from the square is St Basil's Cathedral, built in the 1550s to commemorate Ivan the Terrible's capture of the Mongol stronghold of Kazan. "

Está a decorrer a votação das 7 Maravilhas do Mundo, uma das minhas preferidas:

Statues of Easter Island (10th - 16th Century) Easter Island, Chile

“Discovered on Easter Sunday, 1722 by Dutch explorer Jakob Roggeveen, this collection of 25 meter-high stone sculptures still puzzles historians and archaeologists as to its origins. It is believed that a society of Polynesian origin settled here in the 4th century and established a unique tradition of monumental sculpture. Between the 10th and 16th centuries, they erected the enormous stone figures, known as the Moai, which have long fascinated the entire world and endowed this island with a mythical atmosphere.”

" De otro. Será de otro. Como antes de mis besos.
Su voz, su cuerpo claro. Sus ojos infinitos.
Ya no la quiero, es cierto, pero tal vez la quiero.
Es tan corto el amor, y es tan largo el olvido.
Porque en noches como esta la tuve entre mis brazos,
mi alma no se contenta con haberla perdido.
Aunque éste sea el último dolor que ella me causa,
y éstos sean los últimos versos que yo le escribo."

Pablo Neruda
