When you restart the computer, someone comes along with alcoholic beverages or coffee. Both things I produce all kinds of delusions. Impossible a key hole. and terrified for fear of being devoured by mosquitoes, I can not vaporizers to start writing. In these circumstances, I wish you a beautiful January, rain and cool and maybe come before February. If you hear a hum, run: I am I won by mosquitoes, which caught me and put a red cape and black and I'm flying looking for fresh blood.

The true distance is made of time. If you lived on the other side of the world, on a distant planet, in the confines of the universe, I would move heaven and earth, seas and outer space as necessary to find you, find (I know). But how to find you if maybe you were not born yet, if you might be dead or never existed. Or, as you once told me, maybe I am not yet born to the life or death ... How hold if a wall of wind, life, old photos, remembering and forgetting, roads, twists and turns, silence and words, decisions, destinations, stands among us as a mirror and envelops us anything, impossible , never? How tell you everything you want to tell you if your time is so obviously foreign to me that I can not even see it?. How desandaría time, how they break up hold (also know ...)
