Let's forget for a couple of days our daily labors. And this year has plenty of things I would very much like to forget, from the public to the private sphere. But so goes life.
Wishing you all a happy holiday, even if you could not find Harina PAN to make your hallacas.
Happy holiday from the land where the weather oscillate from -20 to freezing rain. Enjoy your sun.
ReplyDeleteFeliz Navidad amigo.
ReplyDeleteDaniel,
ReplyDeletePersonal pain has been my cross for the past few weeks and Christmas has found me am only grieving.Sometimes for me grief feels very similar to homesickness, or the loss of something very essential to who I am.When ever I was in Venezuela I missed Christmas in the US.When in the US i miss Christmas in Venezuela, because both places are part of me. So I think this:
I see through my window
window home through my eyes
I see home where the wind goes
Wind blows home across the skies
May your Christmas be warm, and may you feel at home.

Merry Christmas! Nothing will take us that away.
ReplyDeleteNot be so sure about it. In Cuba they erased it from the people's conscience from 1968 until 1998 when the Pope went to Cuba, it has not come back yet as it was before!
DeleteOops...I meant "Nothing will take that away from us."
DeleteIt was too late.
Anonymous,
That won't happen in Venezuela (although I have to say I am pissed off with the spread of santería and fundamentalist, intolerant variations of different beliefs).
says the intolerant of santería and fundamentalist beliefs ... jajajaja!

ReplyDeleteWishing you Daniel and this blog readers A Merry Christmas and A Happy New Year 2014.
ReplyDeleteEstimado Daniel:
ReplyDeleteComo quisiera poderte enviar el Pernil, Las Hallacas, La Ensalada de Gallina y el Pan De Jamon que estoy a punto de servir en la mesa, pero por Internet la vaina no furula.
En mi mesa dejare dos puestos vacios, uno para ti y uno para tu S.O.
Algun dia, llenaran esos puestos.
Gracias a ti por tu lucha sin cuartel
Por seguir en Venezuela
Por tratar de despertar a los que siguen soñando en pajaritos preñados.
Feliz Navidad y que Dios ilumine tu sendero siempre
Roberto N

Vengo un poco tarde para desearte Feliz Navidad, Daniel, y todo lo mejor en este Año Nuevo. Gracias por tus escritos que se conectan a un rinconcito de nuestro corazón, y abran una ventanita - aunque minima - de esperanza que algún día reinará el sentido común en la política venezolana.

Thanks for your insightful postings, Daniel. We can only hope that life in Venezuela will be better or least not worsen in 2014 as much as you are predicting.
