Eduardo Galeano - El libro de los abrazos


"El amor es una enfermedad de las más jodidas y contagiosas. A los enfermos, cualquiera nos reconoce. Hondas ojeras delatan que jamás dormimos, despabilados noche tras noche por los abrazos, o por la ausencia de los abrazos, y padecemos fiebres devastadoras y sentimos una irresistible necesidad de decir estupideces.

El amor se puede provocar, dejando caer un puñadito de polvo de quereme, como al descuido, en el café o en la sopa o el trago. Se puede provocar, pero no se puede impedir. No lo impide el agua bendita, ni lo impide el polvo de hostia; tampoco el diente de ajo sirve para nada. El amor es sordo al Verbo divino y al conjuro de las brujas. No hay decreto de gobierno que pueda con él, ni pócima capaz de evitarlo, aunque las vivanderas pregonen, en los mercados, infalibles brebajes con garantía y todo."

"No, this is F...

Freedom

Once upon a time, there was this little girl; she had blue hair and white eyes. People just called her The Girl. She loved to pour water over a big ants farm. Almost all the ants hated when this happen, except one young ant called Freedom. He loved to ride the waves created by the pouring water of The Girl. All the friends of Freedom told him that this was pretty dangerous, that he was too impulsive and needed to stop doing it before it was too late. The time passed by and Freedom disappeared from the farm. His friends started a search. One day, freedom’s girlfriend went to his favorite place to ride, hoping to find her boy. She saw a old ant sitting down in a rock and asked him if he know something about Freedom. He told her “There was once an ant called Freedom that became unstuck in the world. He took the wind for a map. He took the sky for a clock and set off with no destination. He was never lost.” They never look for him anymore.
