Please, let's just not pretend to be what we are not,
let's just not put names and rules and limits to what we really are,
let's not build hopes in the future or tell lies that will deeply hurt tomorrow,
let's just live the moments that we have together and not make plans for later,
But please, let's live every moment, drink it as if we have just opened and expensive wime bottle, let's keep the memory of our moments as clear as we can with not judgement, without ilusions, just facts,
In that way we are real and not an ilusion, we are safe from harm

For those in love....like me
Tactic And Strategy
My tactic is
Looking at you,
Learning how you are,
Loving you as you are,
My tactic is
Talking to you
And listening to you
To build with words
An indestructible bridge
My tactic is
Remaining in your memories
I don't know how
Nor with which pretext
But remaining with you.
My tactic is
Being frank,
And knowing that you are frank,
And not selling each other
Simulations
So that between us
There is no curtain
Nor abyss.
My strategy is,
However,
Deeper and
Easier,
My strategy is
That one of these days
I don't know how
Nor with which pretext
You finally
Need me.

Don´t Save Yourself
Don't Save yourself,
Don´t be immobile
On the edge of the road,
Don't freeze the joy,
Don't love with reluctance,
Don't save yourself now
or ever,
Don't save yourself,
Don't fill with calm,
Don't reserve of the world
Just a calm place,
Don't let fall your lids
Heavy as trials,
Don´t speak without lips,
Don't fall asleep without sleepiness,
Don't think of you without blood,
Don't judge yourself without time.
But if in spite of everything
You cannot avoid it
And you freeze the joy,
And you love with reluctance,
And you save yourself now,
And you full with calm,
And you reserve of the world
Just a calm place,
And you let fall your lids
Heavy as trials,
And you speak without lips,
And you fall asleep without sleepiness,
And you think yourself without blood,
And you judge yourself without time,
And you are immobile
On the edge of the road,
And you save yourself,
Then
Don't stay with me.

The movie quote- my favorite ever
Well, when I get it the only thing that does any good is to jump in a cab and go to Tiffany's. Calms me down right away. The quietness and the proud look of it; nothing very bad could happen to you there. If I could find a real-life place that'd make me feel like Tiffany's, then - then I'd buy some furniture and give the cat a name!

Tinna Modotti



Tina Modotti was born in August 1986 in Friuli, Italy. At the age of 16 she inmmigrated to US to join her father in SF where she worked as a model and artist. Tinna Modotti is one of my favorite photographers and social activist in the 1920s in Mexico and Cuba. This is reflected in her social directed pieces as the ones I am presenting here.

However reflecting her romanticism. Her favorite portraits were mexican rural scenes to reflect the political and social difficulties in that moment.
I simply enjoy the beuty of her work and the stetics that is reflected as well as the feeling of solitude that she reflected in her work.

Che if you could see me....
I really hate consumism it makes me queezy just to think what it means to the world for me to buy a new dress or anything at all...
but this evening as I steped into the supermaket, I felt as if I was cought into consumistic network, a non stoping need to shoooooooooop- after my alter ego was satisfied, I got a postconsumption depression and I thought.... if The Che could see me he would revolve in his grave....
I promise to be stronger next time my dear Che, cross my heart....
