Dear daughter, T alent, H umanity, E nergy, A rt...hope you always keep all your letters alive. Hope your eyes are always wide open, not missing a scene, spotting injustice, flooding when needed, smiling in glee. Hope you let your hair be, all wavy and frizzy, rebellious and free. Not forcing it take unnatural shapes, just wash it and comb it, caress it (not much😍), and let it get tangled in daylight and nights. Hope your huge hands keep stroking your oldies and new, grabbing pens and keys to create rhythms, floating in the air as you move, stretching to hold friendly fingers and never needing to stop slaps. They were molded to catch love, feel love, spread love. Hope your spine like a tall elm will always be erect, solid, and sane, ready to resist all winds, from east or west, rest in the sun and swing in the breeze. Hope your elbows help you rise when you fall, lean relaxed as you share a meal, and kiss other elbows when your lips cannot kiss. Hope your legs, so long s...
Things that don't suck Water and lemon, yes, just water and lemon. Saturday mornings devoid of alarms. Saturday nights alone with no plan. Numbers that make my doctors smile. Numbers that matter in control, well in line. Her perfume. Her laughter. Her all. Number 7. Number 3. Windy winters by the lagoon. Rainy naps and bus rides sitting. New books in my bag.

Unplanned gatherings. Films set in NY. Fresh flowers in a pot. Photographs. Taking photographs. Storing pictures, sheltering moments. Remembering. Remembering. Recycled furniture. Comfy shoes. Nard-smelling can...
MÍNIMAS PARA MI HIJA @anamarcelalogioio Cada mañana que suene el despertador, sonrisa y gracias porque podés levantarte. Siempre tomate un tiempito para desayunar, despacio, saboreando, disfrutando. Usá ropa cómoda que te guste, que muestre tu personalidad, no importa lo que la moda dicte. Vos sos moda. Estudiá lo que te llene el alma, no los bolsillos. Si podés elegir dónde trabajar, ¡la gloria! Si no, ¡nunca dejes de buscarla! Mirá para atrás sólo para siempre recordar de dónde venís. Mirá para adelante, sólo para tener claro a dónde vas. Que tus ojos no se pierdan detalle del presente, esta película no la pasan dos veces, ¡disfrutala! Si algo te incomoda, es que está mal. Si algo te incomoda pero al resto no, está mal. Si algo te gusta, te hace bien, y no afectás a nadie, ¡adelante! Si algo te gusta, te hace bien pero los que te rodean no lo entienden, ¡adelante! Leé de todo: poesía, prosa, recetas, instrucciones, tengan sentido, no tengan sentido, vos dales se...
