Between going and staying the day wavers, in love with its own transparency. The circular afternoon is now a bay where the world in stillness rocks. All is visible and all elusive, all is near and can't be touched. Paper, book, pencil, glass, rest in the shade of their names. Time throbbing in my temples repeats the same unchanging syllable of blood. The light turns the indifferent wall into a ghostly theater of reflections. I find myself in the middle of an eye, watching myself in its blank stare. The moment scatters. Motionless, I stay and go: I am a pause

La democracia se construye cuando nadie queda fuera My site

Octavio Paz lo dijo con claridad: la democracia moderna nació de la crítica. Sin libertad de expresión, reunión y difusión de ideas, la crítica no existe.

DYK first New-World #feminist, 17thC #SorJuanaInesDeLaCruz is an icon in Mexico? Her portrait appears on the pesos notes. Nobel-Prize-writer #OctavioPaz held a funeral for her in 1995—300 years after her death. First & last stanzas from #SorJuana’s poem, “You Foolish Men”:

Poetry is knowledge, salvation, power, abandonment. An operation capable of changing the world, poetic activity is revolutionary by nature; a spiritual exercise; it is a means of interior liberation. #Poetry reveals this world; it creates another.

Life is like a book, with chapters that are sad, happy, and exciting. But if you never turn the page, you’ll never know what the next chapter holds. Another glorious morning from this little corner of the world

In the transparent silence
the day rested
the transparency of space
was the transparency of silence
#OctavioPaz
A Morning in July 5:21 AM

Last year’s December moon captured through the jasmine branch on the window.

Between
what I see and say
between
what I say and keep silent
between
what I keep silent and dream
between
what I dream and forget
It shifts between yes and no…
The poem "Between What I See and What I Say" by #OctavioPaz

When your headspace is too full of junk, it’s time to take the dogs for a walk. A calming view of the lake with the mute swans is perfect

The sky painted the lake a beautiful blue, and ducks and swans happily sunbathed in the warm sunlight.

A dog’s smile is the only thing that can brighten up a day. must love dog

Learn to be relaxed, Max knows best.

Aprender a ser libre
es aprender a sonreír
Learning to be free
is learning to smile
#OctavioPaz

Esperanza Quien ha visto la esperanza, no la olvida. La busca bajo todos los cielos y entre todos los hombres. Octavio Paz

This is perhaps the most noble aim of poetry, to attach ourselves to the world around us, to turn desire into love, to embrace, finally what always evades us, what is beyond, but what is always there – the unspoken, the spirit, the soul.

El sueño se ha identificado con la vida
El sueño no es la muerte
sino otra vertiente de la vida
El sueño
Los sueños
las formas –monstruosas en apariencia pero impregnadas
de sentido con que la vida se manifiesta..🚶🏻‍♂️🌙
