NO SOLO ES LA LLUVIA
No solo es la lluvia golpeando mi ventana
mojando el jardín donde jugábamos en verano
mi hijo , yo y nuestro gato
No solo es el viento otoñal ni la noche que cae de golpe
es que aunque este año es más soportable el otoño
me lloran los ojos de noche cuando estoy dormida
y no puedo apretar los dientes obligándome a sonreír
No es solo la lluvia es que mi hijo está grande
mi gato envejece y yo duermo sola
y si bien en primavera toda la luz del mundo
me mantiene contenta en …

What drives a person to enter a sect?
By Albina Sabater
Just this week, in Chile, was publicly known that a sect had killed a newborn, because he was said to be the Antichrist. The baby’s father was the leader of a sect. After a police persecution, the leader ended in Peru, and committed suicide. The investigation is still on course, because there are other people involved in the newborn’s assassination.
There are many sects around the world, in the US too, and the history tells us about some cases:

Spring Wildflower with dew
Mary-Ann Sampere
From the Spanish Mediterranean Mountains …….
My work is the result of a lifetime of living with great photographers, musicians and poets, all of them unconditional lovers of Nature. This means that in every picture I try to convey the spirit of my experiences.
My pictures are made of light, music and poetry.
All photos of Nature are made “in situ” without manipulating the space, in other words all remained in place after posing!
A warm hug.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Rosie Napravnik isn’t worried about history. She knows that will take care of itself.
Just to hedge her chances, though, the 25-year-old jockey is working on her chemistry with a long shot named Mylute in Saturday’s Kentucky Derby.
Two years after achieving the best finish by a female jockey in the Derby, she will try to become the first woman to win it. Napravnik’s pursuit of the milestone comes a year after she became the first female rider to win the Kentucky Oaks, the second-biggest race on Churchill Downs’ …

Make a Difference in Our Local Community: Start By Believing
By Carly Fox, AmeriCorps VIP Fellow
When someone tells me they were raped or sexually assaulted, I start by believing.
If someone comes to you and tells you they’ve been sexually assaulted what will your reaction be? A majority of people who are sexually assaulted confide in a friend or family member first. The response of the confidant is crucial to the survivors healing and reporting of the crime.
When someone says “I’ve been raped” the most important words in the world …

The new Pope, Francis
His name make us remember, of course, Francis of Assisi, that young man who wanted to reach God through nature, and who saw God everywhere. The old Italian film “Brother Sun, sister Moon” is a true gem to get his point of view.
Francis of Assisi went to the Vatican and talked with the Pope, to remind him and his cardinals that Jesus had been a poor man, not a rich one.
The Pope, according to History, heard him, allowed him to create a group, now named “Franciscans” and… …

NOW to President Obama:
Appointment is Good, But Still Not Good Enough; More Women Should be in the Cabinet
Statement of NOW President Terry O’Neill
May 2, 2013
With President Obama’s appointment of Penny Pritzker to be Secretary of Commerce, his second-term roster of cabinet secretaries is nearly complete. NOW has done the math, and the numbers are good, but not great. The Obama cabinet is only about one-third women. With women making up 51% of the American population, President Obama’s cabinet should accurately reflect this and be one-half women.
NOW is particularly …
