Blog 8: Chile 2010: What are your views on Chile´s bicentennial year.

The bicentennial has been a year of great changes in all areas. This 2010 has not been any year. Chile achieved 200 years, counted from the National Board of Governors September 18, 1810. Independence is not, but it is the first sign of organization in our country. Chile begins to form as an independent nation 200 years ago. And the Bicentennial word as used in recent times, finally arrived. So far it has been many events that marked and paralyzed an entire nation, with great effort and sacrifice have gone ahead. This will be the year of marriage and excel in all areas.

It has not been an easy year for the country. Beginning with the February earthquake, a fact that will make for quite a while to Chile, because of the pain, fear and bad times lived. However, in situations how are you is when you value the country where you happened to be born (or living). Despite the tragedies, the suffering, the country, its people, know stand up and overcome adversity. He has done many times and in 2010 it continues to demonstrate. Although the coup was strong, the temple has to face the trauma and move forward, that is the only way possible. We also have the right first democratically elected president in 52 years, Sebastian Pinera. Assumed in an emergency, day of the second largest earthquake in American history.

Chile is an example of how to get ahead against adversity, even when hopes are dashed, as in the case of miners imprisoned in the Mina San Jose. Those are the moments where you value being here. It was amazing the support we received these brave miners, not only of an entire country but also abroad. Chile showed that unity is strength, was the last hope was lost, but that never happened, and that those 33 miners can now enjoy the wonders that life offers. And now finally has left the best technician that has had the Chilean team, who managed for a long time something that had not been able to achieve that reach a global chile, sorry about that but as always, we will not surrender and we'll get as usual.

I am very proud to live in a country where I can achieve my dreams, where I can feel calm and in which is much of what I need to be happy. I know that Chile still has a long way to be a better nation, a job that will take many generations, but we are on track. Because, although it sounds cliché, the best of Chile is yet to come. It depends on each one of us.I think in Chile and a better future.

Blog 7: Full Moon (a story created by me)

In the dark of night, amid the silent streets of Santiago and a full moon shone so clear that every corner, I found myself walking towards my house when I met him. It was a heroic act on his part to defend myself from a thief who tried to storm, risking their lives for a stranger like me ... you never think when you are next to his beloved, the love they had to be converting little routine and routine practice, is it perhaps that when you reach those ends, love dies?, although in my case I do not think yet. Since that game film, Tom and I never parted, it sounds corny but finally I fell in love with him seriously ... I spent the best years of my life, taught me what it means to be happy, next to nothing could harm me, he is my everything, I do not know what to do if it was no longer beside me ...

My greatest happiness was fulfilled the day we got married, I still remember the day I called marriage ... turned 4 years since we met. It took more than 8 years for him not to tell me more because of her, since she came into our lives has been to separate, I want to go. But we have fought tirelessly to keep our marriage has been a very heavy fight, anyone has already thrown in the towel ... I always said I would be with him no matter what happened, they have always believed that our love was infinite and invincible, but I always err . I could not keep this up, I gave up, she won and he will get carried away ... we live apart, when I never see him talking to me, your silence tells me that is not the same, but I love him so much ... as I tell my heart that no longer wait, how can you kill love?, I can not stop but everyone tells me to redo my life, I am in all my right, even before our separation, however, my soul saysOtherwise ... declare before God and seal my soul next to him for all eternity, for me the promises are fulfilled and will keep it in mind, while I live ... but all try to get away from him I will not, I will alwaysbeside him, though unwilling, because I love him ... it's all her fault, she was the cause of all our misfortune, if only he had cared for her, but not blame him, it was impossible to escape ... that threat came unexpectedly in our lives, completely ruined, I took to be more love in this world, I walk away from it.
Although I see every day, even though I am at your side at all times, their silence and indifference is what makes me want to leave at any time that door and never return, however, the fact I return to hear his voice and see me again, is what has me tied there by his side, and whatever happens I'll keep waiting, I do not care if I never talk, if you will not see it again inside of me I know he feels the same, I'm safe and I know that wherever you go there will be waiting with a huge bouquet of roses as it always has, since that night we met ... he was waiting that day his girlfriend at the bus station when she said she had met someone, ended their relationship. Her grief and rage wandered the desolate streets where I walked to my house, then save in a sign of comfort that branch gave me saying, "it seems that class knew who was waiting for me too" ...

The time came, and warned me in advance, came suddenly and without anesthesia, Thomas finally left me physically, just left without saying goodbye, just gave a big sigh when you kiss to go to my house, last kiss, warm and fleeting, that would be our last meeting, that how it all end? ... a huge penalty is out of my throat, my tears were like a flood loosened my knees hitting the cold floor, he saw blurry, I came images of our history. And on a moonlit night nurse arrives, saying: "Madam, your husband has fought tirelessly against stroke, but can finally rest, his soul is already with you, your body was" dead. "

THE END
