De repente, no más que de repente,
se volvió triste lo que fuera amante,
y solitario lo que fuera contento.
El amigo próximo se hizo distante,
la vida se volvió una aventura errante.
De repente, no más que de repente.
Tropezamos de repente como en un nuevo 11S. Sonreíste a quema ropa, contra el filo de mi boca. Y susurraste que el pasado solo es como un día malo, y la lluvia abrió las puertas de mi vida en tu Ford Fiesta.
Tú me enseñas que, se puede querer, lo que no ves..
This was taken ages ago, I set a little table at my window propped up the gerbera's head a bit and used the TV screen as the background... think it turned out ok :)
Wishing you all a blessed Sunday, and I trust that you know the Lord Jesus Christ as your Saviour.... when you truly repent, the slate is wiped clean and you will not be condemned for past sins.
Thank you so much everyone for the support, encouragement and friendship here.... I love reading your comments and many of them make me smile :) :)
De repente me deu a maior vontade de passar um verdinho água. Eu já tinha pedido esse há um tempo no site da orly e só estava esperando uma oportunidade para usar. Fiquei surpresa, mas ele é super parecido com o For Audrey da China Glaze, é só um tiquinho mais claro. Uma graça! Ele é um pouquinho corretivo, mas dá para usar numa boa, na segunda camada já fica perfeitinho! O detalhe meigo é o gloss que vem junto, muito fofinho!
Estou triste porque minhas unhas estão quebrando demais, estou cheia de cotoquinhos...
Comecei a usar umas bases diferentes e me arrependi, estou de volta às minhas bases das Colorama...
beijos e bom final de semana!

Introduction
View Feature Page: Judgment Beginning at the House of God
Some people believe that after the Lord Jesus resurrected and ascended to heaven, the Holy Spirit descended to work on man on the day of Pentecost. He reproved the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment. When we receive the work of the Holy Spirit and repent to the Lord for our sins, we are experiencing the Lord's judgment. The work done by the Holy Spirit on the day of Pentecost should be the judgment work of God in the last days. Are we correct in the way we receive it? What is the difference between the work of the Lord Jesus and the judgment work of Almighty God in the last days?

Así de repente mientras llegaba la 252 que habían mandado desde MIranda a Bilbao, nos enteramos del traslado de la primera composición de 10 coches desde Bilbao Abando a Irún para proceder a su triste final bajo la pinza.
Estaba yo tan tranquilo en casa cuando me avisaron de que el traslado era inmediato y de no ser por el retraso en la salida de Abando debido a que los okupas no se querían bajar de los coches, habría perdido la oportunidad de poder fotografiarlo.
En Abando me encontré con Juanjo y nos fuimos en su coche hacia Luyando donde le pude hacer esta fotografía juntandonos al final varios aficionados pudiendolo perseguir hasta Miranda de Ebro.
Luyando, 3 de Julio de 2014.
It is the annual open air Christmas service in Turtle Crossing Park. Pastor Charles Calvin has delivered the opening message* and now there is a time of fellowship.
Officer Smith: Pastor Calvin, this is Steve Rogers. Steve and I have been talking and I wanted him to meet you.
Pastor Calvin: Thank you Brad. Steve, it is a pleasure.
Steve Rogers: The pleasure is mine, pastor. You are from London, mid 19th century?
Pastor Calvin: Yes, I left and came to Paprihaven in 1884.
Steve Rogers: I thought so. I read your reprinted sermons when I was younger. I'm pretty much a century later, from 1988 America.
Pastor Calvin: *chuckle* I gathered by your colorful garb you may be from America.
Steve Rogers: Two world wars broke out after you left and I served in both. And in many others. Too many. ** Peace, Pastor Calvin. Doesn't the Bible say in Luke 2 that Jesus came to bring peace on earth?
Pastor Calvin: Yes. And He has. We cannot parse out the words though, to try and make them fit something else. The passage does not allude to a general peace on earth, but "Glory to God in the highest, And on earth peace among men with whom He is pleased." ***
The peace of which the angelic host is heralding is a peace within the hearts and souls of those men and women who repent and turn to the Savior whose birth was being praised.
The "on earth" is the amazing aspect of this peace. It would be little wonder that you or I would have peace in Heaven, would it?
Steve Rogers: No, pastor, that would be expected.
Pastor Calvin: Just so. But here, in a fallen world of darkness, deceit, danger, how can one find lasting peace? The world itself cannot offer that peace because the world is the source of the unrest. Purchasing the best security only offers a temporary sense of safety as new security measures simply, inevitably, fall to more inventive criminals.
That's just an example that can be applied to every aspect of life here. So... "peace on earth" is truly amazing. Absolute, consistent peace in the heart of a person that remains independent of the circumstances around them.
Steve Rogers: The peace of God.
Pastor Calvin: Exactly. The Lord Jesus says, "Peace I leave with you; My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Do not let your heart be troubled, nor let it be fearful." **** The peace He gives not like the sense of peace provided by anything of this world, which ebbs and flows. The peace of Christ is consistent. Solid. Because it is His peace.
It is the peace that comes with the knowledge that the one true God is your God and that He will never leave your nor forsake you. That you, as a believer, have full access to His throne at all times. "Let your gentle spirit be known to all men. The Lord is near. Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all comprehension, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." *****
Steve Rogers: "Let your gentle spirit be known to all men." So as long as this world goes on, there will be conflict. But, at least we can present peace to those around us.
Pastor Calvin: Well said. "Turn from evil and do good; Seek peace and pursue it. Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called sons of God." ******
Steve Rogers: Thank you, Pastor Calvin.
Pastor Calvin: Thank you for taking the time to speak with me, Steve. And, my ever helpful Audrey is standing close by, no doubt seeking my attention to let me know it is time for the closing remarks.
Audrey: Yes, I hope I didn't interrupt.

Villa de Coca, Segovia.
La villa de Coca, es una población milenaria, previa a la llegada de las legiones romanas a Iberia. Finalmente conquistada a los vetones, estos terminarán romanizándose y de la ciudad romana de Couca saldrá el gran emperador romano Teodosio.
La importancia de esta villa hace que siempre haya poseído murallas defensivas y pequeñas torres fortificadas.
A mediados del siglo XV, la villa fue propiedad de Don Iñigo López de Mendoza, marqués de Santillana, del que más tarde descendería el Cardenal Mendoza y los duques del Infantado, en época de los Reyes Católicos.
Castillo de Coca, Segovia.
Situado en el extremo occidental del casco urbano y aprovechando como defensa natural uno de los meandros naturales que traza el río Voltoya a su paso por la villa, el castillo de Coca está considerado una de las obras cumbres del gótico mudéjar español, así como uno de los castillos castellanos más icónicos.
Fue mandado levantar en el año 1473 por Don Alonso de Fonseca, Tercer Señor de Coca, una vez que en 1453 el rey Juan II había otorgado su permiso para tal empresa a su tío y Arzobispo de Sevilla también llamado Alonso de Fonseca.
Su artífice material fue el alarife Alí Caro, de origen musulmán, residente en Ávila y a quien también se le atribuye la construcción del castillo toledano de Casarrubios del Monte.
Tiempo después el castillo de Coca pasaría a manos de la Casa de Alba, la cual, en 1954 lo cedería al Ministerio de Agricultura con el fin de instalar en él una escuela de capacitación forestal aún a día de hoy activa.
Fue declarado Monumento Histórico Artístico en 1928.
Arquitectura del Castillo de Coca.
Edificado en su totalidad en ladrillo salvo en saeteras y ventanas para las que se destinó material pétreo, lo primero que llama la atención del castillo coucense es que no se encuentra, como es habitual en la mayoría de fortalezas, en una posición elevada, sino que se asienta en un terreno totalmente llano y abierto a la población.
Dicha circunstancia se explica porque el de Coca, sin renunciar a unas potentes defensas, es un castillo de eminente carácter señorial y residencial.
Villa Of Coca, Segovia.
The town of Coca, is a millenarian population, prior to the arrival of the Roman legions to Iberia. Finally conquered the vetones, these will end up romanizing and the Roman city of Couca will leave the great Roman emperor Theodosius.
The importance of this town means that it has always possessed defensive walls and small fortified towers.
In the middle of the 15th century, the town was owned by Don Iñigo López de Mendoza, Marquis of Santillana, from whom Cardinal Mendoza and the Dukes of Infantado would later descend, during the reign of the Catholic Monarchs.
Castle of Coca, Segovia.
Located at the western end of the town center and taking advantage of one of the natural meanders laid out by the Voltoya River as it passes through the village, Coca Castle is considered one of the most outstanding works of the Spanish Mudejar Gothic style, as well as one of the the most iconic Castilian castles.
It was ordered to be erected in 1473 by Don Alonso de Fonseca, Third Lord of Coca, once in 1453 King Juan II had granted his permission for such a venture to his uncle and Archbishop of Seville also called Alonso de Fonseca.
Its material architect was the alarife Alí Caro, of Muslim origin, resident in Ávila and who is also credited with the construction of the Toledo castle of Casarrubios del Monte.
Later, the castle of Coca would pass into the hands of the House of Alba, which, in 1954, it would cede to the Ministry of Agriculture in order to install in it a forest training school that is still active today.
It was declared a Historic Artistic Monument in 1928.
Architecture of the Coca Castle.
Built entirely in brick except in loopholes and windows for which stone material was used, the first thing that catches the attention of the coucou castle is that it is not, as is usual in most of the fortresses, in an elevated position; it sits on a totally flat land open to the population.
This circumstance is explained because that of Coca, without renouncing some powerful defenses, is a castle of eminent manorial and residential character.

Historia de Flickr.
Creador.-
Daniel Stewart Butterfield es un empresario canadiense, mejor conocido por ser cofundador con su esposa, Caterina Fake, del sitio web para compartir fotos Flickr
Verano de 2002 se funda Ludicorp por Daniel Steward, Caterina Flake y Jason Classon.
Ludicorp desarrollo un juego de roll multijugador masivo en línea. El juego no se lanzó, pero la compañía ya tenia reservado un almacenamiento y lo aprovecho para compartir fotos, así nació flickr.
En marzo de 2005 Ludicorp fue adquirida por Yahoo. En julio de 2008 Daniel Stewart Butterfield abandona el puesto de Gerente General de Flickr.
En abril de 2018 Yahoo vende Flickr a SmugMug.
SmuMug es una empresa de almacenaje de fotografías y vídeos en línea.
Según ha informado USA Today, la compañía de Silicon Valley que ha adquirido Flickr está comprometida a dar una nueva vida a la red social. Así lo afirmó el CEO de SmugMug, Don MacAskill, quien señaló que Flickr "es un producto fantástico y una marca querida, que suministra decenas de miles de millones de fotos a cientos de millones de personas en todo el mundo"
Hasta el momento no se han dado detalles sobre los términos del acuerdo.
Por su parte, Flickr informó en un comunicado que al aliarse con SmugBug, "volvemos al enfoque que nos convirtió en la comunidad de fotografía en línea pionera en el mundo. Reforzamos nuestro compromiso con los creadores y nos aseguramos de que Flickr siga siendo el mejor lugar para conectarse, compartir y desarrollar su pasión".
A pesar de los problemas, Flickr sostiene que cuenta con más de 75 millones de fotógrafos registrados y más de 100 millones de usuarios.
El acuerdo ya ha sido confirmado pero los planes de SmugMug ahora que es dueño de Flickr todavía no han sido especificados. En realidad, ni el propio CEO ha elaborado un plan. "No sé lo que depara el futuro. Este es un nuevo modelo para mí", señaló MacAskill aunque especificó que van a tener que operar en función de sus ingresos y rentabilidad.
La estrategia, por el momento, irá centrada a escuchar las demandas y las propuestas de los clientes y empleados.
Suena tonto para el CEO no saber totalmente lo que va a hacer, pero tampoco hemos construido SmugMug en un plan maestro. Tratamos de escuchar a nuestros clientes y cuando suficientes de ellos soliciten algo que es importante para ellos o para la comunidad, vamos a construirlo.

Ahora viene la realidad del mercader.
Los nuevos dueños de Flickr borrarán todas imágenes en cuentas gratuitas y sólo dejarán las 1.000 últimas. Con esa decisión asesinarán parte histórica de la web. Al menos hay métodos para exportar las imágenes y no perderlas para siempre.
Si alguna vez creaste una cuenta de Flickr probablemente ya has recibido el email: última oportunidad para pagar Flickr Pro, que cuesta 50 dólares al año o 6 dólares al mes. Aquellos que no lo hagan pueden hospedar un máximo de 1.000 imágenes, que es el nuevo límite de las cuentas gratuitas. Las fotos excedentes serán eliminadas para siempre** a partir del 5 de febrero de 2019.
Cuando SmugMug compró Flickr a Yahoo, aseguró que seguiría dando soporte de las cuentas gratuitas pero no dio detalles. Meses más tarde anunciaron el límite: 1.000 imágenes, si tienes más las borramos, si no quieres que eso suceda, debes pagar.
Estoy completamente de acuerdo y a favor de pagar por servicios de este tipo y afortunadamente la sociedad en general ha ido aceptando, con el tiempo, que algunas cosas tienen precio.
Pero detrás de Flickr hay un legado demasiado grande que ya no depende únicamente de los dueños de las fotografías e imágenes que se han subido durante los casi quince años en que el servicio ha existido. Muchos de ellos han, lamentablemente, muerto. Muchos no recuerdan sus credenciales de acceso y muchos probablemente crearon sus cuentas con emails que ya no existen, retirando la posibilidad de reiniciar contraseñas.
Hay millones y millones de imágenes hospedadas por un servicio que llegó seis o siete años antes de tiempo, el primer gran ejemplo de lo que alguna vez mal-llamamos "web dos punto cero", una de las primeras grandes adquisiciones al espíritu positivo e ingenuo de emprendimiento que renacía después de la gran caída del punto-com.
El paso es especialmente sangrante considerando que Flickr, antes de ser adquirido, daba 1 terabyte de espacio gratuito. Nuevamente, estoy de acuerdo que deberíamos pagar por un servicio, pero el límite de apenas 1.000 fotos y la amenaza de eliminarlas para siempre a quienes no paguen suena a chantaje.
Es verdad que Flickr es un dinosaurio que no supo adaptarse a los tiempos. No solo Instagram se lo "comió vivo", además servicios de almacenamiento en la nube gratuitos e integrados como Google Fotos o la app de Fotos de Apple han restado sentido a un sitio independiente de hospedaje de fotos.
Lo que Flickr sí tuvo fue una comunidad increíble que nunca más se ha vuelto a crear alrededor del acto de fotografiar. Algunos como 500px lo han intentado, sin éxito. Es una pena ver como SmugMug, los nuevos dueños van a asesinar una parte importante de la web, por una falta tremenda de respeto al legado de lo que tienen en sus manos.

History of Flickr
Creator.-
Daniel Stewart Butterfield is a Canadian businessman and entrepreneur, best known for co-founding his wife, Caterina Fake, from the Flickr photo sharing website
Summer of 2002 Ludicorp is founded by Daniel Steward, Caterina Flake and Jason Classon.
Ludicorp developed a massive online multiplayer roll game. The game was not launched, but the company already had a storage reserved and I take it to share photos, so flickr was born.
In March 2005 Ludicorp was acquired by Yahoo. In July 2008 Daniel Stewart Butterfield leaves the position of General Manager of Flickr.
In April 2018 Yahoo sells Flickr to SmugMug.
SmuMug is an online photo and video storage company.
As reported by USA Today, the Silicon Valley company that has acquired Flickr is committed to giving a new life to the social network. This was stated by the CEO of SmugMug, Don MacAskill, who pointed out that Flickr "is a fantastic product and a beloved brand, which supplies tens of billions of photos to hundreds of millions of people around the world"
So far no details have been given about the terms of the agreement.
For its part, Flickr said in a statement that by allying with SmugBug, "we return to the focus that made us the pioneering online photography community in the world." We reinforced our commitment to the creators and made sure that Flickr remains the best place to connect, share and develop your passion. "
Despite the problems, Flickr maintains that it has more than 75 million registered photographers and more than 100 million users.
The agreement has already been confirmed but SmugMug's plans now that he owns Flickr have not yet been specified. Actually, not even the CEO himself has drawn up a plan. "I do not know what the future holds, this is a new model for me," MacAskill said, although he specified that they will have to operate based on their income and profitability.
The strategy, for the moment, will be focused on listening to the demands and proposals of customers and employees.
It sounds silly for the CEO not to fully know what he is going to do, but we have also not built SmugMug into a master plan. We try to listen to our clients and when enough of them request something that is important for them or for the community, we are going to build it.
Taken from. hipertextual.com/2018/04/smugmug-flickr
Now comes the reality of the merchant.
The new owners of Flickr will delete all images in free accounts and will only leave the last 1,000. With that decision they will assassinate historical part of the web. At least there are methods to export the images and not lose them forever.
If you've ever created a Flickr account you've probably already received the email: last chance to pay Flickr Pro, which costs $ 50 a year or $ 6 a month. Those who do not can host a maximum of 1,000 images, which is the new limit of free accounts. The surplus photos will be eliminated forever ** as of February 5, 2019.
When SmugMug bought Flickr from Yahoo, he said he would continue to support the free accounts but did not give details. Months later they announced the limit: 1,000 images, if you have more we delete them, if you do not want that to happen, you must pay.
I completely agree and in favor of paying for services of this type and fortunately society in general has been accepting, over time, that some things have a price.
But behind Flickr there is a legacy too great that no longer depends solely on the owners of the photographs and images that have been uploaded during the almost fifteen years in which the service has existed. Many of them have, unfortunately, died. Many do not remember their access credentials and many probably created their accounts with emails that no longer exist, removing the possibility of resetting passwords.
There are millions and millions of images hosted by a service that arrived six or seven years ahead of time, the first great example of what was once badly called "web two point zero", one of the first big acquisitions to the positive and naive spirit of entrepreneurship that was reborn after the great fall of dot-com.
The step is especially bloody considering that Flickr, before being acquired, gave 1 terabyte of free space. Again, I agree that we should pay for a service, but the limit of just 1,000 photos and the threat of eliminating them forever for those who do not pay sounds like blackmail.
It is true that Flickr is a dinosaur that did not know how to adapt to the times. Not only did Instagram "eat it alive", also free and integrated cloud storage services such as Google Photos or the Apple Photos app have made sense of an independent photo hosting site.
What Flickr did have was an incredible community that has never been recreated around the act of photography again. Some like 500px have tried it, without success. It is a pity to see how SmugMug, the new owners are going to kill an important part of the web, for a tremendous lack of respect for the legacy of what they have in their hands.

Una canción que habla de la situación actual del mundo: pobreza, malos tratos, políticos corruptos... en definitiva, de las injusticias a las que estamos sometidos en pleno siglo XXI.
De repente desperté y como siempre este maldito mundo, tan extraño como absurdo, tan cruel como taciturno, comenzó a andar del revés...

"Eu estava em Torres- RS, com Miriam, Laura e Jorge e de repente apareceu esse inseto. Segundo Miriam que vive no Sul ele se chama Violino, porque seu som é de um violino e tb se repararmos as anteninhas dele tem o formato do arco do violino. Não consegui nenhuma imagem dele, mas confio na minha amiga Miriam Cardoso de Souza."
Compsocerus violaceus (também conhecido como C. aulicus ou C. equestris) . O nome vulgar em espanhol é "guitarrero", conhecido também como "violino", pelo som que produz.
Todos os besouros Longhorn (ou mais arcaica, longicorns) pertencem à família Cerambycidae. Caracterizam-se por antenas extremamente longas, que são muitas vezes tão longas quanto ou mais do corpo do besouro. A família é grande, com mais de 20.000 espécies descritas, pouco mais da metade do Hemisfério Oriental. Vários são consideradas pragas sérias, com a perfuração de larvas em madeira, onde podem causar danos às árvores vivo ou madeira não tratada (ou, ocasionalmente, a madeira dos edifícios, sendo um problema específico dentro de casa). Um número de espécies imitam formigas, abelhas e vespas, embora a maioria das espécies são de colorido críptico. Apesar de uma vasta literatura sobre as relações de acolhimento de larvas cerambycid e as áreas geográficas das espécies, há pouca informação sobre o comportamento de adultos de muitas espécies, porque são crípticos e noturnos. Violaceus Compsocerus ocorre em todo o Brasil e o Uruguai e é conhecido popularmente como "Guitarrero" (guitarrista), devido ao som chilrear que produz esfregando uma de suas pernas contra a borda superior posterior da asa anterior, que tem um raspador de espessura.

Salvation | Introduction
What is salvation? Every believer in the Lord believes that as long as they pray to the Lord with a true heart, confess and repent to Him, their sins will be forgiven, and they will be saved by grace. When the Lord comes back, they will be directly taken into the kingdom of heaven. Is salvation really so simple?
Xu Zhiqian, the hero of this film, has believed in God for many years. He enthusiastically worked for God and abandoned everything to perform his duties. Because of this, the Chinese Communist Party arrested him and cruelly tortured him, and even sentenced him to six years' imprisonment. After being released, he continued performing duties and had some practical experiences. He was able to solve the practical problems of his brothers and sisters. He didn't make complaints or become negative and weak when his wife was arrested and imprisoned…. The brothers and sisters all praised and commended him. Xu Zhiqian believed that he already had the reality of truth, and he would surely be granted entrance into the kingdom of heaven. Soon after, however, a trial came upon him suddenly. His wife was tortured to death by the Chinese Communist police. He became extremely grieved and had notions about and misunderstanding of God, so he made complaints, and the thoughts of disobeying and betraying God emerged in his mind…. Later, he realized that it was betrayal to God, so he began reflecting upon himself: Can people like him, who complain against God, misunderstand God and betray God when faced with trials be truly saved? Are they qualified to enter the kingdom of God?

Testimonies | God’s Attitude Toward Sinners
Some brothers and sisters may raise questions, and will say: “We’ve believed in the Lord for many years and have worked very hard for Him. We can’t count how many churches we’ve established, and we’ve even been sent to prison. So even if we do commit sin, God will surely not abandon us!” If this was truly the case, then wouldn’t those Jewish Pharisees who traveled all over the lands and seas to spread the gospel, and yet defied and condemned the Lord Jesus, all have been able to enter into the kingdom of heaven? Why were they still condemned and cursed by the Lord Jesus? Wasn’t the Lord Jesus the loving and merciful God? How was He still able to condemn and curse them? Moreover, these people worked hard for God, so why didn’t the Lord Jesus pardon their sins? Regarding this question, these words of the Lord Jesus come to mind: “Not every one that said to me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that does the will of my Father which is in heaven. Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in your name? and in your name have cast out devils? and in your name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess to them, I never knew you: depart from me, you that work iniquity” (Mat 7:21-23). And a book of truth also says: “Some people will end up saying, ‘I’ve done so much work for You, and though there may not have been celebrated achievements, still I have been diligent in my efforts. Can’t You just let me into heaven to eat the fruit of life?’ You must know what kind of people I desire; those who are impure are not permitted to enter into the kingdom, those who are impure are not permitted to besmirch the holy ground. Though you may have done much work, and have worked for many years, in the end if you are still deplorably filthy—it is intolerable to the law of Heaven that you wish to enter My kingdom!” (“Success or Failure Depends on the Path That Man Walks” in The Word Appears in the Flesh). Reading these words, I suddenly saw the light. It turns out that those who will enter the kingdom of heaven must indeed be those who cast off sin and are cleansed, who follow God’s way, and who obey God, worship God and love God. Those who spread the gospel and cast out demons in the Lord’s name but who don’t follow God’s way are evil-doers in the eyes of God. Just like those Jewish Pharisees—although they appeared pious on the outside, and they worked for God and suffered greatly all their lives, and paid much price, yet when the Lord Jesus incarnated to perform His work of redemption, they refused to accept it, much less submit to or practice the Lord Jesus’ words. Instead, they judged and condemned the Lord Jesus’ work, frantically resisted the Lord, and they even spread notions and rumors to deceive people and obstruct them from accepting the Lord Jesus’ work, and they nailed the Lord Jesus to the cross—by doing this, were they not openly opposing and contesting God? People like this, who simply will not repent, are truly Satan’s partners in crime and are Satan’s lackeys. They worm their way into the church especially to disrupt and demolish God’s work, and people like this have a God-defying essence, they are the enemies of God, and God will never allow hated enemies or the wicked to enter into His kingdom. From this, we are able to see that all who are incapable of practicing God’s words or of obeying God’s work are all unclean and unrighteous; if someone is unable to repent or to cast off their God-defying corrupt disposition, and they go on living in sin, then they are unclean, they are not a righteous person praised by God, but instead they are condemned. The kingdom of heaven is God’s kingdom, and God is holy, so if someone is unclean then how could they be qualified to enter into God’s kingdom and live together with Him? God is merciful and loving to man, but God is also righteous, and will never lead filthy and corrupt people into His kingdom. That is to say, whether or not we can enter into the kingdom of heaven in the end does not depend on how much work we do or how much we suffer, but most importantly it depends on whether or not our corrupt dispositions are changed and cleansed, whether or not we can practice God’s words, do God’s will, and whether or not we are people who love God, obey God and fear God. If we only rely on our own ardor to give things up, expend ourselves, spread the gospel, build churches and support other believers, but our own corrupt dispositions are not changed in the slightest, we still frequently commit sin, defy God and rebel against God, and we are unable to follow God’s way, then we will be evil-doers, and will be unable to enter into the kingdom of heaven.

No recuerdo qué cuento me estaba contando cuando de repente, un zumbido por la izquierda de mis dos orejas me alertó. Tras unos segundos de reconocimiento de la escena, vi como libre y tranquilo aterrizaba en la pared un estupendo ejemplar de mosquito tigre.
Superando los 10mm de rigor que marca su ficha en los documentales de la dos, lucía a la perfección sus patitas en blanco y negro a juego con un admirable aguijón.
Bien, "te voy a matar" pensé. Y mientras yo fallaba con un confiado derechazo acolchado en papel de water, él respondía con una inaudita maniobra de evasión realizada a toda leche pasando muy cerca de mi cara.
"Je... te voy a matar" repensé.
Con el duelo formalmente iniciado, comenzaron una serie de intentos de homicidio trapo cocina en mano sin mucho éxito. El tío era rápido, muy rápido.
Esquivó dos cojinazos en mi cama y una funda de portátil contra el techo.
Era un vacilón, lo veía en su mosquita cara y eso no me gustaba nada.
Ya calentito, le lancé una caja entera de lápices alpino acompañada de una novela regalada jamás comenzada. A dicho obús, le siguieron un viejo disco duro, un par de carpetas y un ratón que no usaba. Tras una lámpara rota y una pared más que marcada, se hizo la calma.
"¿Dónde está? ¿ha muerto? necesito ver el cuerpo"
Fue entonces cuando me volvió a zumbar la oreja (esta vez la derecha) momento en el cual terminé de perder unos nervios ya bastante desorientados.
Así pues, esperé a que se arrinconara el solito para desconectar cuidadosamente el cable usb y tirarle encima la impresora A3 mientras gritaba "¡jódete!", tumbando dos estanterías en plan melé, una bicicleta estática, un monitor CRT y para asegurar la faena, después de amontonar varios desodorantes en spray; disparé con una Colt para provocar una pequeña explosión.
Con un interior irrespirable y arrasado, salí afuera pensando "como vuelva y esté vivo, lo mato".
Así de repente sin avisar, apareció ante mi vista y se posó en uno árbol cercano, la sorpresa fue mayúscula y aunque estaba un poco lejos había que inmortalizarlo, ya me hubiera gustado que se hubiera posado más cerca, pero de todas formas mereció la pena. aún se quedó un ratito para que disfrutara de su belleza.
Espero verlo más veces y a poder ser más cerca.
From an email written to a friend some 3000 miles away after the tsunami of 26th December 2004:- " I was not home when it happened. I was working on one of the remote islands and I had no means of traveling home till 10 days later. I saw the sea rise like a towering wall of water.
I am more thankful now for all the things that I have taken for granted. Death may happen anytime and I am scared now of the gruesome manner in which death can take place. I talk to myself, I talk to God. I see my life, what I have done and not done, when I have been bad and when I have been good. I see that I need to repent, with my heart and soul for the sins I committed. I've learnt lessons in life - but this one is the biggest. And hopefully, I will live to practise what I have learnt."
" A father tells of his missing daughter, with moving dignity,
holding back raw emotion and I cry his tears
and she is my daughter and he is my father
and we are together in our tragedy."
"Come, Come who or whatever you are
Should you be an unbeliever, a Magian or a pagan still come
Our lodge is not a lodge of despair
With hundred repentions unheeded you may be,still, come"
For Muslims and non-Muslims alike, the main reason to come to Konya is to visit the Mevlâna Museum, the former lodge of the whirling dervishes and home to the tomb of Celaleddin Rumi (later known as Mevlâna), who we have to thank for giving the world the whirling dervishes. This is one of the biggest pilgrimage centres in Turkey, and the building's fluted dome of turquoise tiles is one of Turkey's most distinctive sights.
For Muslims, this is a very holy place, and more than 1.5 million people visit it a year, most of them Turkish. You will see many people praying for Rumi's help. When entering, women should cover their head and no one should wear singlets or shorts.
After walking through a pretty garden you pass through the Dervişan Kapısı (Gate of the Dervishes) and enter a courtyard with an ablutions fountain in the centre.
At the entrance to the mausoleum, the Ottoman silver door bears the inscription, 'Those who enter here incomplete will come out perfect'. Put on the supplied plastic over-shoes before entering. Once inside the mausoleum, look out for the big bronze Nisan tası (April bowl) on the left. April rainwater, vital to the farmers of this region, is still considered sacred and was collected in this 13th-century bowl. The tip of Mevlâna's turban was dipped in the water and offered to those in need of healing. Also on the left are six sarcophagi belonging to Bahaeddin Veled's supporters who followed him from Afghanistan.
Continue through to the part of the room directly under the fluted dome. Here you can see Mevlâna's Tomb (the largest), flanked by that of his son Sultan Veled and those of other eminent dervishes. They are all covered in velvet shrouds heavy with gold embroidery, but those of Mevlâna and Veled bear huge turbans, symbols of spiritual authority; the number of wraps denotes the level of spiritual importance. Bahaeddin Veled's wooden tomb stands on one end, leading devotees to say Mevlâna was so holy that even his father stands to show respect. There are 66 sarcophagi on the platform, not all visible.
Mevlâna's tomb dates from Seljuk times. The mosque and semahane, the hall where whirling ceremonies were held, were added later by Ottoman sultans (Mehmet the Conqueror was a Mevlevi adherent and Süleyman the Magnificent made charitable donations to the order). Selim I, conqueror of Egypt, donated the Mamluk crystal lamps.
The semahane to the left of the sepulchral chamber contains exhibits such as the original copy of the Mathnawi, Mevlâna's cape and other clothing, a 9th-century gazelle-skin Christian manuscript and a copy of the Koran so tiny that its author went blind writing it. In the middle of the room is a display case holding a casket which contains strands of Mohammed's beard. The small mosque in front of the semahane is reserved for prayers but as you exit the building, look to the left of the mihrab for a seccade (prayer carpet) bearing a picture of the Kaaba at Mecca. Made in Iran of silk and wool, it's extremely fine, with some three million knots (144 per square centimetre).
The matbah (kitchen) of the lodge is in the southwest corner of the courtyard. It is decorated as it would have been in Mevlâna's day, with mannequins dressed as dervishes. Look out for the wooden practice board, used by novice dervishes to learn to whirl. The dervish cells (where the dervishes lived) run along the northern and western sides of the courtyard. Inside the cells are a host of ethnographic displays relating to dervish life. In particular, one room contains personal items belonging to Şems of Tabriz including his hat and a manuscript of the Mâkâlât, his most famous work.
The complex can get oppressively busy, and seeing any of the contents of the museum display cases can be a pushing and shoving, head-ducking affair. Come early on a weekday if you want to see all the items in peace. On the other hand, the atmosphere on busy days is almost addictive and more than makes up for not being able to properly examine the museum pieces.
Beside the museum is the Selimiye Camii.

Y de repente a la vuelta de la esquina te encuentras esa vida de todos los días en un instante te das cuenta de la belleza que desprenden y que a veces nos cuesta ver de tanto como la vemos.
Lentamente la vida se desnuda
ante mis ojos de ya no desiguales
vestiduras,vida vives en los ojos
de las plantas de los arboles que
moran en los valles,en las montañas
altivas del Norte de mi tierra ,donde
se alzan bosques de tu espalda y
tu infancia se oye entre el gentio.
Lentamente la vida vive
en los espejos de los ojos.
