"The sun and sand go hand in hand
The sound of constant waves
There's a smell of salt in the air
The ocean is seen through a haze"
(M. Matheny)
"To be loved like that makes all the difference. It does not lessen the terror of the fall, but it gives a new perspective on what that terror means. I had jumped off the edge, and then, at the very last moment, something reached out and caught me in midair. That something is what I define as love. It is the one thing that can stop a man from falling, the one thing powerful enough to negate the laws of gravity." Paul Auster (Moon Palace)

Ericeira num dia de Inverno (um toque de frescura no dia de hoje em que a Ericeira está com 37 graus)
Janela no Palácio de Monserrate, Sintra
"One window is enough for me
A window on to the moment of awareness and seeing and silence"

Praia Grande, Sintra, ontem ao entardecer
"Standing, breeze lightly blowing,
I look around, look far, look wide,
Look to the sky, to the sand,
And to the sea."

Nuvens dançando com a serra
"Distant drums they summon somnolent feet
To walk on clouds stripped bare of doubts that seethe
Should I abandon my prairie nest on morning's sweet dew
To climb the mountain and dance the rhapsody with you?"
To walk on clouds stripped bare of doubts that seethe
Should I abandon my prairie nest on morning's sweet dew
To climb the mountain and dance the rhapsody with you?"

Infinite ocean near Cabo da Roca, Sintra
"I am a rock on the shore
of the magnificent ocean
millions of years
by the magnificent ocean
and millions more
before I am worn to sand
worn to a grain of sand
by the magnificent healing ocean"
(L.Brown)
