Ni más ni menos

Quiero ser y seguir siendo para seguir sintiendo que soy quien soy.
Silvio me susurra al oído... sé que me arrastrarán por sobre espinas...
y no se trata de no dudar, de creerse absoluto dueño de la verdad,
se trata del corazón que por fin es escuchado.
Y ya sabemos, una vez que se sabe, no se puede no saber.
Y entonces qué? pues eso... ser.

Alex Rovira cita en sus libros a alguien que dijo:
"Por qué no te das a tu esencia y te dejas ser verdadero".
Pues... eso.

22 de julio

Magdalena me pregunta qué quiero hacer, cómo quiero amar, qué estoy dispuesta a dar.
Sé que mi hija responde esas tres preguntas. Por ella, por su felicidad y por la mía, sigo amando, siendo, haciendo y dando.
Y por ella, por las dos, sigo buscando mi camino reflexivo de la vida, que me permite volver a decidir cada segundo, porque ya elegí.

La fortaleza

Sting - Fortress Around Your Heart

(Para escuchar mientras la lees)

Under the ruins of a walled city
Crumbling towers and beams of yellow light
No flags of truce, no cries of pity
The siege guns had been pounding all through the night
It took a day to build the city
We walked through its streets in the afternoon
As I returned across the field's I'd known
I recognized the walls that I once made
I had to stop in my tracks for fear
Of walking on the mines I'd laid

And if I built this fortress around your heart
Encircled you in trenches and barbed wire
Then let me build a bridge
For I cannot fill the chasm
And let me set the battlements on fire

Then I went off to fight some battle
That I'd invented inside my head
Away so long for years and years
You probably thought or even wished that I was dead
While the armies are all sleeping
Beneath the tattered flag we'd made
I had to stop in my track for fear
Of walking on the mines I'd laid

And if I built this fortress around your heart
Encircled you in trenches and barbed wire
Then let me build a bridge
For I cannot fill the chasm
And let me set the battlements on fire

This prison has now become your home
A sentence you seem prepared to pay
It took a day to build the city
We walked through its streets in the afternoon
As I returned across the lands I'd known
I recognize the fields where I'd once played
I had to stop in my tracks for fear
Of walking on the mines I'd laid

And if I built this fortress around your heart
Encircled you in trenches and barbed wire
Then let me build a bridge
For I cannot fill the chasm
And let me set the battlements on fire
