The Tune of the City
(Daniela Mercury)

The tune of the city
The color of this town
is me
The tune of this town
is mine

The guetto, the street, the faith
I go walking down
the beautiful town

The sound of the afoxe
and my strength... where does it come from?
Nobody can explain
This strength is beautiful

Uo o!
This is true love
Uo o!
You'll go wherever I go

Don't say you don't want me
Don't say you don't want me anymore
I am the silence in the night
I am the morning sun

A thousand times the world turns
But there's always a final line
I am the first to sing
I am the Carnival

InterestsI like to make friends all over the world mainly 'cause I'm a polyglot and very interested in sharing knowledge and mutual respect despite the borders that can be considered more than linguistics. If you have the same interests or/ and belong to the very good team of the human beings, we can chat without problems ;-)
Music is another passion in life. I'm always singing my favorite tunes ;-)
I'll let you know what songs are really my favorite ones, ok? ;-)

Tina Turner is one of my favorite singers. Besides having an extraordinary voice, she's an example of life ;-) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jZIoxw0ca9E

ROME (Reuters) - A Sicilian mother took away her 61-year-old son's house keys, cut off his allowance and hauled him to the police station because he stayed out late.

Tired of her son's misbehavior, the retiree in the central Sicilian city of Caltagirone turned to the police to "convince this blockhead" to behave properly, La Sicilia, one of Sicily's leading newspapers, reported on Thursday.

The son responded by saying his mother did not give him a big enough weekly allowance and did not know how to cook.

"My son does not respect me, he doesn't tell me where he's going in the evenings and returns home late," the woman was quoted as saying. "He is never happy with the food I make and always complains. This can't go on."

Police helped the squabbling duo make up and the two returned home together, with the son's house keys and daily allowance restored.

Most Italian men still live at home late into their 30s, enjoying their "mamma's" cooking, washing and ironing.

"The Purpose of a Dog - from a 4 yr. Old

How true...

Being a veterinarian, I had been called to examine a ten-year old Irish Wolfhound named Belker. The dog's owners, Ron, his wife, Lisa, and their little boy, Shane, were all very attached to Belker and they were hoping for a miracle.

I examined Belker and found he was dying of cancer. I told the family we couldn't do anything for Belker, and offered to perform the euthanasia procedure for the old dog in their home.

As we made arrangements, Ron and Lisa told me they thought it would be good for the four-year old Shane to observe the procedure. They felt as though Shane might learn something from the experience.

The next day, I felt the familiar catch in my throat as Belker's family surrounded him. Shane seemed so calm, petting the old dog for the last time, that I wondered if he understood what was going on. Within a few minutes, Belker slipped peacefully away. The little boy seemed to accept Belker's transition without any difficulty or confusion. We sat together for a while after Belker's death, wondering aloud about the sad fact that animal lives are shorter than human lives.

Shane, who had been listening quietly, piped up, "I know why."

Startled, we all turned to him. What came out of his mouth next stunned me. I'd never heard a more comforting explanation.

He said, "People are born so that they can learn how to live a good
life --- like loving everybody all the time and being nice, right?" The four- year-old continued, "Well, dogs already know how to do that, so they don't have to stay as long."

Live simply. Love generously. Care deeply. Speak kindly.

Personal QuoteWill you be patient enough? Please keep reading my personal quote, and thank you for your interest :-)
Now please, read the story below and think about it. If you have enough wisdom you will identify what kind of soul you feed. It's well known what we sow we shall reap sooner or later. Think twice before fucking people off. This world is a passage. We simply borrow this planet, we aren't its owner.

"One evening an old Cherokee told his grandson about a battle that goes on inside people.
He said, "My son, the battle is between two wolves inside us all.
One is Evil. It is anger, envy, jealousy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority and ego.

The other is Good. It is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and faith."

The grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather: "Which wolf wins?"
The old Cherokee simple replied: "The one you feed."
