adoro música, acho impressionante como ela me ajuda
e no entanto há alturas em que é nítido como a minha descoberta das letras me aflige,

memória, memórias...
"time can not erase"
and music brings them back

Nice Music 2

António Variações, canção de engate:

Tu estás livre e eu estou livre
e há uma noite p'ra passar

tu estás só e eu mais só estou
que tu tens o meu olhar

vem que o amor não é o tempo
nem é o tempo que o faz
vem que o amor é o momento
em que eu me dou e que te dás

Spanish Royal Wedding:

I noticed they use the wedding ring on the right hand - I swear, the TV just happened to be on... - We Portuguese put them on the left hand.

I do wonder which is the minority system in the world, actually are wedding rings more than a western european tradition?

Nice feeling

I feel good.
I learned some nice (important) lessons.
My brain is coming back! :-) Functioning better again.
I'm ready and willing to go on, try again.
Looking forward to seeing what life will bring.

Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
And stoop and build 'em up with worn-out tools:

Nice science 1:

I've read that at Nijmegen, in Holland, scientists found that we get pissed at people that make mistakes, because inside we feel as if we made the mistakes. (the brain patterns associated with seeing a mistake are the same we experience when we realize we did one)

This sort of identification/simulation theories for explaining empathy and feelings seem to be gaining experimental support. They connect with and seem to indicate what maybe the only mechanism for how humans learn from observing others.

Cognitive sciences are fun. :-)

Nice music 1

Tracy Chapman's Fast Car
It's a nice tune and an old theme: being young and growing up.

"i had a feeling that i belonged, i had a feeling i'd be someone"
