I now have a political solution to the political programs! I am speaking seriously. You must be watching our local channels! The news of our country is drawn from here first. I am just like you. I will tell you. A few days ago, my son, who has concluded his visit to us yesterday, went ...

The Ink of Renewal
Committed writing always requires some of the serenity of hermitages. I dare say that it is some kind of asceticism! We can scent its perfume in the words of the Portuguese poet Fernando Pessoa (+1935): “I have no ambitions nor desires. To be a poet is not my ambition, it is simply my way of ...
Read moreIs There A Christian Fanaticism?
In more than one place, there are people who are eaten up with a sick fanaticism. In an expanse in which the sectarians’ rule is growing, they do not speak only of the rights of the denomination, their own denomination exclusively, but rather of their divine right to label others as well; they speak for ...
Read moreThe Mystery of the New Life
It is a precious gift to keep in us, old and young, something from our childhood, and even to always keep in mind that we are children. This is not an encouragement to the frivolity or the dependent life that is the characteristic of lazy people, God forbid! But it is rather an encouragement to ...

Before Zach Galifianakis entered the world of film acting, he befriended “Mimi Haist”, the elderly lady he met in a California laundromat.

Read moreMy Political Stance
In our country, we claim verbally (pay attention to the word: verbally) that, in politics, no person is neutral. I would have hoped that this claim is true; that is, that every human being would have a political consciousness of his own. I am generalizing. I say every human being without distinguishing between a man ...
Read moreThe Richness of the Saints
Some young friends invited me to meet with them. They wanted us to discuss the impact of the economic crisis and disease on the ecclesial commitment of people in our country. We met. We agreed on several matters, the most important of which was to be active in two things: in the love of commitment ...
Read morePropagation of the Truth
Writing is for reading. However, history has shown that unity in reading whatever people have written throughout the ages was not always guaranteed. You remember the word of Jesus: "what is your reading of it?" (Luke 10:26). I am not looking for a new history, but for someone to keep in mind that a different ...
