Relaxing Walk

She is my friend, We have been friends 25 years ago. We went both at the same school. And two weeks ago we went out to walk.  We have seen a lot of beautiful things.


"Walking with a friend in the dark is better than walking alone in the light."
Helen Keller
















The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched.
They must be felt within the heart.
Helen Keller




"Love is like a beautiful flower which I may not touch, 
but whose fragrance makes the garden a place of delight just the same".         
Helen Keller




I who am blind can give one hint to those who see: use your eyes as if tomorrow you would be stricken blind. And the same method can be applied to the other senses. Hear the music of voices, the song of a bird, the mighty strains of an orchestra as if you would be stricken deaf tomorrow. Touch each object as if tomorrow your tactile sense would fail. Smell the perfume of flowers, taste with relish each morsel as if tomorrow you could never smell and taste again. Make the most of every sense, glory in all the facets of pleasure and beauty which the world reveals to you through the several means of contact which nature provides. -- Helen Keller

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY

Este fragmento lo leí en el libro Alas Rotas: 
( The Broken Wings by Kahlil Gibran)


La más bella palabra en labios de los seres humanos es la palabra madre, y el llamado más dulce es madre mía. 

MY MOTHER
GOD BLESS MY MOTHER, GIVE HER HEALTH AND LIFE

 Es una palabra llena de esperanza y de amor; una dulce y amable palabra que surge de las profundidades del corazón. 
La madre lo es todo; es nuestro consuelo en la tristeza, nuestra esperanza en el dolor, y nuestra fuerza en la debilidad. 
Es la fuente del amor, de la misericordia, de la  conmiseración y del perdón.


MOTHER OF MY HUSBAND. SHE DIED 15 YEARS AGO.

 Quien pierde a su madre pierde a un alma pura que bendice y custodia constantemente al hijo.


 Todo en la Naturaleza habla de la madre. El Sol es la madre de la Tierra, y le da su alimento de calor; nunca deja al universo por las noches sin antes arrullar a la Tierra con el canto del mar y con el himno que entonan las aves y los arroyos. Y la tierra es la madre de los árboles y de las flores. Les da vida, los cuida y los amamanta. Los árboles y las flores se vuelven madres de sus grandes frutos y de sus semillas. Y la madre, el prototipo de toda existencia, es el espíritu eterno, lleno de belleza y amor.


¡Madre mía! La palabra madre está oculta en nuestros corazones, y acude a nuestros labios en horas de tristeza y en horas de felicidad, como el perfume que emana del corazón de la rosa y se mezcla con el aire diáfano, así como con el aire nebuloso.
