DIME CORAZON


Quien pudiera, corazón
comprender los misterios del amor.
Quien pudiera corazón,
comprender porque en la noche oscura
surgen las estrellas pequeñas,
centellas de luz;
encontrarás que en la oscuridad
pequeñas gotas de cristal
iluminan en formas hermosas y bellas.
Quien pudiera corazón
comprender el mar profundo,
su azul inigualable,
y su vastedad, su magnificencia.
Dime corazón
¿Tengo yo que contener mi amor?
¿Puede cerrar el cielo,
atrapar la luz del sol?
Dime corazón,
¿si hay alegría sin tristeza
o tristeza sin alegría?
Quien pudiera corazón
comprender cuando el alma se enamora
y que aun añora el puñal que lo va a herir.
Acaso se contiene el río cuando busca la mar.
Dime corazón
si acaso alguna vez has amado
puedes ya dejar de amar .
Si las flores tienen pétalos,
y las aves, alas,
son por alguna razón al igual el amor,
han nacido para amar.
Hiéreme, oféndeme,
acaso tendré que responderte
de la misma manera.
No sabes acaso que el amor
por ser amor es puro e incondicional.
Quien pudiera comprender
lo que es absoluto, perfecto, y eterno.
Dios ha hecho al hombre pequeño
pero ha puesto en su pecho
una flama de fuego
que jamás podrá apagar.
Dime corazón,
porque las aves hacen sus nidos
y, aun las fieras cuidan sus madrigueras,
¿Tengo yo que ser diferente?
Por ser pensante y consciente
debe uno vivir lo que ha de vivir,
así sea un sueño , así lo llamemos ilusiones.
El que no sueña no vive y,
el que no vive, jamás sueña,
Dime corazón,
¿Por que es tan fácil hablar con las palabras,
aquello que aun no puedes entender.
Algún día llegara en la vasta eternidad
que tu también sentirás el llamado del amor.
Entonces, ya no dirás ni que alegría ni que dolor,
sino que vivirás aquel amor,
y así te acordarás
que en los misterios de la creación
no todo esta dicho ,
ni todas las historias son contadas,
sino que hay caminos
que tu tendrás que recorrer
para que descubras tu propio ser.
Y mira que te advierto,
el amor es lo que mas grande,
lo mas intenso, lo mas noble
y también lo que mas te hará padecer,
pero si es verdadero
podrás gritar al mundo entero
que encontraste el sentido de tu ser.
Dime corazón,
que es el amor sino tu propio ser,
que sincero de corazón
quita los velos, quita las cadenas.
Y dijo más de una vez, “te quiero”
porque te quiero y nace de mi ser.
Dime corazón,
que no hay nada mas grande,
mas hermoso, y mas puro
que sentir amor, Amor verdadero.

SEASON'S GREETINGS TO YOU ALL FROM GOA



Yesterday as I came home, I was surprised to see this beautiful greeting card waiting for me. As I opened it, I found some very beautiful philatelic stamp's enclosed within. These beautiful stamps add to my philatelic collection.
The greeting card had this beautiful message.


"Sending my wishes
Across the mile...
For a season warm
With joy and Happy Smiles
Season's Greetings"


For a moment, I wondered, could it be Santa???


Naaaaa, It was from my dear friend Hazel.



Thank you so very much Hazel & family.
Hope you all had a blessed Christmas and a festive week.

My best wishes to you all

"Wish you a very Happy & Prosperous New Year 2010".

Partying with friends in the festive season

The Mambo's entry tag just wont go off my hands.




My friends visited me late Night, (27th December 2009), with plans to go to Mambo's at Baga.

I was trilled to meet them after a very long long time.

It was fun being in the company of Shanessa, Shijuka and the ever hilarious Rakesh.

The night started with a vehicle having no petrol. Then the trip to Mapusa to the "24 hours petrol pump" to fuel our vehicle. Then back to Baga. Then we spent an hour searching for a parking slot and in the process discovered that the reverse gear of the vehicle started to act up. So had to use the muscle power to get our vehicle reversed back on to road. It was fun to see Shanessa drive the car without the reverse gear in the terrific traffic Jam. There were tempers rising. Tit for Tat. It was very funny.

Finally we got a parking slot almost half a kilometer away from Mambos.

As we walked the Titos lane, it was like out of the world atmosphere, with people from round the world partying on the street, in the pubs, bar and discotheques. As we neared Tito's the street was jam packed with party animals :-).

We entered Mambo's after midnight, where the party had already begun. We were greeted to a feast of Music. The smoke of Hooka was in the air. For me Kingfisher beer rocks. The cocktails were baddddddd. Tequila was awesome. The food was not up to the mark.[Rakesh commented that the chicken that was used in our Chicken Tika must have had "Polio"] and then we danced to some great DJ Music at Mambos till 5 o'clock in the morning.


Thank you guy's for coming all the way to Calangute. You reminded me of all the fun & Good times back then. I wish I could turn back time.

Guys you Rock

Cheers

New Years Eve, Prince (The Artist), and Alternate Text

Each New Years Eve since 1982, I have found myself humming that defiant yet celebratory New Years anthem by Prince, "1999". This reminds me of something I have often puzzled about, but until now have never blogged about or even mentioned to anyone.



From June 7, 1993 to May 13, 2000, Prince went by the name:




an unpronounceable symbol


This symbol was said by Prince to be unpronounceable. Therefore, the dilemma: What should we use for alternate text when an image is meaningful, but unpronounceable?



In the above image, I chose to use alt="an unpronounceable symbol". However, I'm not sure if that's the right approach. If sighted users aren't supposed to pronounce the symbol, should screen readers pronounce it? Perhaps a null attribute (alt="") would be more respectful of Prince's intentions, since screen readers don't verbalize images that have null alt attributes.



The authors of the current Prince Wikipedia page chose to forsake the symbol's unpronounceability and used an alt attribute that describes the symbol in considerable detail:



Logo. Hollow circle above downward arrow crossed with a curlicued horn-shaped symbol and then a short bar



That's certainly more informative than silence, but is it meaningful? In my opinion, it's only slightly better than the official ASCII version of the symbol: O(+>



Sighted people may notice that the unpronounceable Prince symbol contains the universal signs for both male and female, united together into one. Some may agree that this union seems to either be celebrating sexuality or androgyny, or perhaps both, which is arguably important information since it's part of Prince's persona and brand. So, we're faced with the challenge of succinctly communicating that symbolism to users who are unable to see the logo, and I don't think the Wikipedia description quite reaches that target. According to the Prince.org Online Fan Community, "the glyph incorporates the male and female signs along with the alchemy symbol for soapstone". Maybe that description should be incorporated into the alternate text for the image.



Interestingly, the official copyright registration of the symbol shows that the symbol actually does have a title, "Love Symbol No. 2". One can imagine that the artist at that time formerly known as Prince probably struggled with this same dilemma that we now face when he was filling out the copyright application for his unpronounceable symbol, and was faced with "Title", which is a required field.




Screen shot of copyright registration record, showing nine fields including the title, Love Symbol No. 2


With Prince having set this precedent, I think we're justified in referring to the symbol using some sort of verbiage, and I think we probably should refer to it by it's Prince-given title. Therefore, after this careful analysis I'm now inclined to use alternate text that combines information from Prince himself and from his fan club:




Love Symbol No. 2: a symbol that incorporates the universal male and female signs along with the alchemy symbol for soapstone



Anyone have better suggestions? Just something to ponder this New Years Eve as we party like it's 2009.

EL DESTINO


Escúchame, ven, me voy a presentar a ti.

Yo sé a dónde tú quieres llegar, conozco por dónde ha de seguir tu camino.Yo conozco, a dónde vas y de dónde vienes. Y siempre sabré cuál es tu destino final. Yo no sé ¿porqué te alejas de mi? y ¿porqué no quieres venir? No entiendo, ¿porqué te niegas a conocerme?, ¿porqué te niegas a tratarme?
Yo te puedo dar consejos y te puedo evitar infinidad de problemas. Conmigo vas a tener seguridad. Yo quisiera que me entiendas un poco, yo te aseguro que todo te lo daría pero tú me rechazas y tratas de olvidarme. Es más ya me has dicho que tu quieres vivir a tu manera y que yo no tengo nada que ver.

Pero te repito que conmigo siempre tendrás seguridad y no es que te quiera atrapar o que quisiera enjaularte en una jaula de cristal, de oro y de perlas, eso sería bonito pero solo para visitarte.

Yo nunca te diré que no, es más prometo complacerte, llegar a ti para que tengas confianza en mi y que algún día me tomes en cuenta.

Mira, voy a decirte un secreto, ese día en que tu naciste, ese día yo estaba presente mirándote y amándote. Y, es más, el día que tu partas, yo no lo podré resistir y me iré contigo.

Acéptame te lo pido una vez más.

Yo soy tu destino.

MARIPOSA DE CRISTAL


Hay una mariposa de cristal
que viene y que va .
No te agites, no te angusties,
no apresures tu vuelo.
No te agites y te canses,
ven a mi que de tiempos yo te espero.
Descansa mi cielo, descansa mi amor.
Yo no te voy atrapar.
Yo no te voy a encerrar,
no quiero para ti una jaula de oro,
una jaula de hierro, una jaula de barro.
Quiero para ti, libertad.
Quiero para ti, amor de verdad.
Quiero que seas libre
para volar juntos por la eternidad.
El secreto del amor
no se encierra en una cadena,
no se encierra en una condena,
sino en saber que si tu tienes una ala,
yo tengo la otra. Y entonces, ¿A que temes?
Solo se tu, porque yo seré siempre también tu.
Ese es el secreto revelado, mas profundo del amor.
Tu paz es mi paz, tu sonrisa mi sonrisa.
Tu mágico vuelo, mi vuelo. Tu sentir, mi sentir.
El río llega al mar y juntos se hace el océano
¿Puede alguien acaso separarnos?
Vuela mariposa, en el infinito y la eternidad,
que ya nada nos separará jamás.

VIENTO, ARENA Y MAR

El amor se ha hecho viento.
El amor se ha hecho arena.
El amor se ha hecho mar.
El viento y la arena
entraron en mis ojos
y me hicieron llorar ,
y una lágrima salada
entró en mi boca,
y entonces sentí el mar.
Y entonces comprendí:
El amor se ha hecho viento
El amor se ha hecho arena
El amor se ha hecho mar
Yo jamás la podré olvidar.

NAVIDAD ES EL ESPIRITU DE PAZ


Navidad es el espíritu de Paz y de Amor
que habrá de guiarnos hacía la próxima Navidad
y así para la eternidad.
..
¡FELIZ NAVIDAD !
Paz, Amor y Bien en sus vidas

EL SILENCIO EXPRESA MAS QUE LA PALABRA


Hay algo muy extraño de pensar, difícil de concluir pero intuitivamente podemos perfectamente entender, el silencio pesa más, expresa más que una palabra hablada. El silencio no puede callar, y aunque parezca absurdo, si hubiéramos hablado, si hubiéramos respondido tan siquiera una vez. Mil veces te dije “te amo” y mil una veces callaste.

Mata el amor , no las discusiones , no las palabras, porque todos estamos llenos de palabras y muchas veces decimos cosas que no debemos de decir, pero los problemas se arreglan con las palabras , pero en silencio, la voz acusante crea distancias y una brecha en el tiempo.
.
Y el amor se muere por tu ausencia, por tu voz, por aquel te quiero , por aquel te amo que tanto necesite y tu nunca dijiste.
.
El silencio mata el amor

ESPERANDO POR TI


Lo que tú dices es importante para mí,
y estoy aquí esperando por ti,
puede que pase el tiempo y las horas sean largas ,
pero cuando yo vuelva a escuchar tu voz ,
todo lo que espere tendrá un sentido especial .
Y me imagino que tu vives en un barco velero ,
yendo de aquí para allá, de allá para aquí
y yo me quedaré en el puerto hasta saber de ti.
Y le voy a pedir al viento y al mar
que sean buenos conmigo ,
porque ya no puedo soportar tanta ausencia.
Mira lo que has hecho de mi,
una sonrisa, una tierna mirada.
y yo en el puerto con una pequeña flor,
sencilla y humilde pero con un gran nombre,
que guardo tan solo para ti .
Yo te espero aquí con una flor
que se llama Amor.

MARIPOSA ENCANTADORA

Mariposa encantada
Tu mágico vuelo cautivo mi atención.
¿Qué soy yo ahora?
Un alma encadenada por la ternura de tu corazón.
Mariposa encantada,
Llévame a tu mundo, déjame acariciar tus alas.
Déjame sentir mío, tu vuelo y volemos
al cielo perfecto de la dulzura y el amor.
Mariposa encantada,
Encantaste mi ser ¿Qué quiero ahora del vivir?
Sino sentir tu vuelo en mi propio ser.
Yo te miro como si fueses el horizonte infinito,
una alita toca el mar, otra alita al cielo azul.
Lo has llenado todo, yo no se ahora
como vivir sino te tengo a mi lado,
tu mágico vuelo, tu presencia encantadora.
¿ Te das cuenta lo que has hecho de mi?
Tu vuelo de aquí y de allá,
y yo te sigo como un loco enamorado,
confieso que es mas que deseo,
digo que es mas que pasión.
Ya no late mi corazón,
son tus alas que baten en mi pecho
Y eso ha hecho que tú ahora
eres la razón de este mágico hecho.
Mariposa encantadora
Eres la dueña,
la reina poseedora de mi vida,
de mi amor y de mi corazón.

An evening at Baga Beach with new friends

My new friends from Moscow "Israfil Atackishiev and Anastasia"


Myself, Israfil Atackishiev and Anastasia



It was nice meeting my friends from Moscow Israfil Atackishiev and Anastasia.
Israfil & Anastasia so friendly to speak too.
Anastasia does not converse much in English, but Israfil anways interprets to her :-).
That's why I call them a "loving couple".
We spoke at length about the customs, traditions and life styles of Moscow and Goa.
He was delighted on their first day at Goa.
He said he would try out Caju Fenny :-) I did caution him, but he said he would try it in under closed walls of his room :-).
Hey Ana, if he get out of control, give me a call :-)
He will be in Baga for a while before moving to Arambol to meet some of his friends there.
He will be back for Christmas in Baga, I have invited him for Christmas at my home.
Hoping to catch up with him for his Birthday on the 27th of December :-)
He was so kind enough that when I was speaking to anastasia about her job and my hobby of stamp and coin collection, he game me some coins of his country. I was indeed trilled by this act of kindness :-) .

Israfil is a web designer by profession and a photographer by passion



The lovely and beautiful couple "Israfil Atackishiev and Anastasia "


Thats me and Israfil Atackishiev



That's me and Anastasia
