Teaching
A doctor was walking in a park and saw one old lady sitting on a bench smoking. He said:
"It's impossible not to notice the happiness on your face. What is your secret?"
She replied:
"I am a teacher, I stay up until 2 am, designing curricula and teaching situations, I wake up at 6 am to arrive on time at work.
I don't practice any sports, have no fun and no social life. At week-ends, I work on to review learning strategies for my students, make assessment, develop teaching materials, and on holidays too, I don't eat breakfast, lunch and dinner because I haven't any time.
I am always stressed because of reforms in education, documentation deadlines and inspectors' visits .
The doctor replied:
"It's amazing! I can not believe. How old are you? "
" 34, "replied the old lady.
Still, after 24 years, I fall in love every autumn. I'm a desperate case, I guess. Any cure for this?

Old ladies
Old trams out for a walk for Bucharest's Days. Like old ladies bringing colour, memories and nostalgic smiles to the gray streets. The red ones were still in use as we were kids, but I seldom saw them because I used to live in my grandparents' village by then.This red one-eyed is the oldest, I think. I hardly remember it.
Good-bye, old ladies.

autumn
The first touches of the new season are already here, the first red stains to announce a change is coming.
And the first sun of autumn took its travel home.
to disappear, like the summer sun beyond that hill.

After the storm
There's been a big storm this evening. It was smaller in Ávila but it was huge in Zorita. When we got there, it was not raining any longer but paths, streams and the river were full with brown water.
When water falls down in such a quantity in a short period of time, roots, branches, pools can be seen everywhere.
Colours change and the moon in the sky looks like laughing. I don't know why, but it looked so to me.
After our storms life is different in the ocuntryside.

Bringing it out
There is a quasi-permanent modern sculpture workshop in our park. This scene was nice to see. It's a mystery for me the way they can see the things hidden in the stone. I am always amazed and muted by this capacity.

a good man
One of the freedom fighters in spain has died today. His music, his love for nature and his region could be models to follow.
