De repente una habitación fría e impersonal de un hotel en una ciudad lejana se convierte en tu hogar. Te sientas junto a la ventana y no puedes más que sobrecogerte ante el mar de luces que brilla entre la niebla. La ciudad es una maqueta soñada, un decorado rociado con una fina capa de agua para dotarlo de un realismo casi cinematográico.

No church can save you, your good deeds will not save you, Mary interceding for your sins will not save you...for she cannot hear you.
You must put your faith and trust in Jesus Christ alone for salvation.
foi assim minha gente...la em recife ouvi um repente, de tão engraçado mostrei os dente! num sorriso cheio de alegria, alegria que trouxe pra minha bahia!
rááááá
aprendi hein!?
Le masque de l'affliction et du repentir domine Magadan. Dans cette région marquée à jamais par les goulags, ce monument, dessiné par Neizvestnyi (« Inconnu » en français), a été érigé dans les années 1990 en mémoire de ces pages noires de l'histoire.
I can't help but notice how the guy on the right is holding his empty Coke bottle. Once you see it, you really can't un-see it.
De repente,
cuando despierto en la mañana
me acuerdo de mí,
con sigilo abro los ojos
y procedo a vestirme.
Lo primero es colocarme mi gesto
de persona decente.
En seguida me pongo las buenas
Costumbres, el amor
filial, el decoro, la moral,
la fidelidad conyugal:
para el final dejo los recuerdos.
Lavo con primor
mi cara de buena ciudadana
visto mi tan deteriorada esperanza,
me meto entre la boca las palabras,
cepillo la bondad
y me la pongo de sombrero
y en los ojos
esta mirada tan amable.
Entre el armario selecciono las ideas
que hoy quiero lucir
y sin perder más tiempo
me las meto en la cabeza.
Finalmente
me calzo los zapatos
y echo a andar: entre paso y paso
tarareo esta canción que le canto
a mi hija:
“Si a tu ventana llega
el siglo veinte
trátalo con cariño
que es mi persona”
At one of the town hall meetings being held by Pete Stark about Obama's Health Care Reform bill. I didn't get into the actual meeting due to the numbers of people there, but I took photos of the crowd gathered outside.
I wore my camera and took pictures and talked to both sides. Most people were civil, but there was a marked difference between the people against health care reform and those in favor; those in favor were generally quiet and well behaved, and those opposed were louder and much more vocal, some actively abusive to others.
Those who got into the actual meeting had very mixed feelings; those opposed came out frustrated and felt that Stark's people stifled them, telling them to sit down and be quiet and let people take turns speaking. Those in favor were saying that the opposition people had gotten there early in order to dominate those present; they were larger in numbers, they got more opportunity to speak, they were louder and much more vehement, and those in favor of reform came out of the meeting with a sense of frustration and lost hope.
Many professing Christians believe they are safely on their way to heaven because they have prayed a prayer, been baptized, joined a church, built friendships at church, learned the “church-talk,” or enjoyed church fellowship activities. However, Jesus Christ Himself said that many would be shocked and horrified on the Day of Judgment when they are told, “I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity” (Matthew 7.21-23). They said they followed the Lord, but they were just pretending!
And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say? [Luke 6.46]
Jesus said that “by their fruits ye shall know them” (Matthew 7.16-20). A true follower of Christ, a Christian, will have a life that bears visible evidence that Jesus is truly his Lord.
Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words… [John 14.23]
But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life. [Romans 6.22]
The Bible states clearly and repeatedly that salvation from sin and sin’s penalty (suffering the wrath of God in hell) is graciously given to those who have repented (turned from sin and self) and placed their complete faith and trust in the Lord Jesus Christ (turning to Christ, to trust and follow Him). That conversion from sin and self, to the Lord will bear genuine, lasting, and visible fruit:
Fruit of Repentance: Turning from sin (Mat 3.8; 2Tim 2.19)
Fruit of Knowledge: A desire to learn Scripture (2Tim 3.15-4.5)
Fruit of Good Works: Obedience to Scripture (John 14.15, 21, 23; Col 1.10)
Fruit of Holiness: Growing in Christ-likeness (Rom 6.22; Gal 5.22-24)
Fruit of Evangelism: An urgency to see others saved (Rom 10.13-17; 2Cor 5.15-20)
The good news of the Gospel is that, even though God is angry with the wicked every day because of their sins against Him (Psalm 7.11), He does not want any to perish and suffer His righteous and just wrath in Hell (2Peter 3.9). God wants all sinners to be saved, and to this end Jesus Christ suffered and died on the cross for all, and then rose from the dead defeating death and proving He is God. But Jesus said, “Except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish” (Luke 13.3). You must turn from sin and self! And you must turn to the Lord Jesus Christ in faith and trust, because there is no salvation outside of Him (Acts 4.12; 16.30-31)!
Nothing is more important than your eternal destiny. Please examine yourself to see if you are in the faith (2Corinthians 13.5), or if you, like so many others, are just pretending.
Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates? [2Corinthians 13.5]
Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it. [Matthew 7.13-14]
"Make me good God, but not yet".....

Original quote attributed to St. Augustine (pre-conversion): "Lord, make me patient - right now. And Lord, make me chaste - but not tonight."

O "Festival de Violeiros Repentistas / Salvador-BA" promove o encontro de duplas de violeiros repentistas e cordelistas destacando a importância e o valor do violeiro/repentista, personagem representativo da cultura nordestina.
Para a décima primeira edição do festival foram selecionadas sete duplas de violeiros repentistas e cordelistas que cantaram repentes em diversas modalidades, a exemplo de sextilha, quadra, mote de 7, mote de 10, beira mar, martelo agalopado, rojão, pernambucano e martelo alagoano. A celebração também contou com a apresentação do grupo Samba Chula de São Braz na abertura do evento. Visando e democratização do acesso a cultura popular o festival teve acesso gratuito e irrestrito.
Mesmo sendo de origem bastante remota e dotado de simplicidade, o cordel não deixou de dialogar com a atualidade e mantém sua característica principal: relatar os acontecimentos do cotidiano. Política internacional, ecologia, corrupção e até Internet já viraram temas de cordel. Diante de tantas inovações, os cordelistas tentam manter viva uma das tradições do cordel: a de homenagear seus antepassados.
A direção artística do Festival fica por conta de Paraíba da Viola, repentista autodidata homenageado em dezembro de 2005 pela Fundação Gregório de Matos como Poeta Popular, e que presidiu até 2014, a Ordem Brasileira de Literatura de Cordel (OBLC).

De repente se sorprendió, después de observar el retrato de un desconocido, conociéndolo por casualidades increíbles de la vida. Se imaginó feliz, cogida de su mano en una playa en una tarde de invierno. Imaginó que sonreía como nunca antes lo había hecho. Se vió en su cama, contándoselo a sus amigas, ellas felices contando cosas similares. Imaginó una vida de risas y abrazos, de besos de la persona idónea en los momentos precisos, de estudios increíbles en la ESCAC, de alfombras rojas y de recuerdos felices de su infancia, de los amores de su adolescencia. Y descubrió que su corazón palpitaba a una velocidad insospechada con tan sólo unas imágenes sacadas de los sueños, de los rincones más recónditos de su extraño cerebro lleno de serrín. Se dió cuenta, también, de que por un momento se había sentido una persona. Que había sentido vida en su interior. Con las manos en la cabeza recordó que no debía abusar de la imaginación, porque solía jugarle malas pasadas, solía darle esperanza. Pero siempre volvía a caer en sus redes. Ya no podía dejarlo y cada vez augmentaban más los chutes de imaginación. Simplemente para seguir, decía. Hasta que un día jamás despertó.
La encontraron en su cama, sonriéndole a nadie, mirando a un invisible con la mirada brillante y vacía.
Day 247 - I was at Repent Bar tonight shooting some heavy metal bands from the DC area - Admiral Browning and Ol Scratch. This was between sets at the bar... had to sit the camera down and grab a cold one.
Y si de repente al levantar la mirada me estrello al espejo
y me encuentro
demasiado humana
amordazada
vencida y convencida
Recordaré que yo no soy esa,
yo no hinqué las rodillas ante nada.
Me haré pues una armadura
de sinuoso pez (como Tell con la luz verde)
con algo de animal mitológico -fénix, tal vez-
y mucho de madre monte
Si no es suficiente, y la mirada se me vuelve
juzgante patética
piedra blanca
bandera tricolor
Acudiré a la música, que siempre acude a mí.
En cadenciosa danza derribaré la vacua materialidad
la punzante fragilidad
que conlleva ser/sentirse
demasiado mortal.
Basta levantar los talones y respirar profundo
Basta, pues, empezar

San Francisco. He was out by the Powell Street cable car turntable with this sign most days for over 20 years. Haven't seen him for some time though. Tough sell ....
I like the Repent sign it looks like a political add. This sign is in the parking lot of a strip club.
