We Are Not Just Visitors

People Sometimes Imagine That Just Because They Have Access To So Many Newspapers, Radio And Tv Channels, They Will Get An Infinity Of Different Opinions. Then They Discover That Things Are Just The Opposite: The Power Of These Loudspeakers Only Amplifies The Opinion Prevalent At A Certain Time, To The Point Where It Covers Any Other Opinion.

What Makes Me Myself Rather Than Anyone Else Is The Very Fact That I Am Poised Between Two Countries, Two Or Three Languages, And Several Cultural Traditions. It Is Precisely This That Defines My Identity. Would I Exist More Authentically If I Cut Off A Part Of Myself

Life Is Like A Fire. Flames Which The Passer-by Forgets. Ashes Which The Wind Scatters. A Man Lived.

We Are Not Just Visitors On This Planet, It Belongs To Us Just As We Belong To Her, Its Past Is Ours, So Is Its Future.

The Identity Cannot Be Compartmentalized; It Cannot Be Split In Halves Or Thirds, Nor Have Any Clearly Defined Set Of Boundaries. I Do Not Have Several Identities, I Only Have One, Made Of All The Elements That Have Shaped Its Unique Proportions.
