I don't care...

I don't care about football. Exception for these days in which the word " Portugal" is shout out loud by patriotic crowds and football makes us forget problems....
I don't care about silly, shallow and selfish people. I believe in friendship, in truthfulness ...
I don't care about politics and politicians. I believe men can build a better world...
I don't care about laziness and "perpetual holidays". I wish to feel tired and happy at the end of the day...
I don't care about wine. Although I may appreciate it on some rare occasions...
I don't care about my enemies. I'd rather laugh with my friends...

( this was a difficult challenge accepted from my dear friend Patrícia )

They are the future...

1st June!!!

Children's Day! It's wonderful to celebrate the youth, the innocence and the future enclosed in each smile, in each face of a child.

It's necessary to give them attention, to given them the freedom to grow in an harmonious environment, to give them love.

It's essential to offer them the right to be healthy, to be educated to offer them a brighter future.

It's important not to neglect them, not to abuse them, not to force them to work.

It's fundamental not to let them die from hunger, from want and from the wars.

Let's make today the first day of all the next in which children will be the centre of all our attention, in which peace , tolerance and respect for the differences will make tomorrow a better place to have our children.
