A bocados

¿Quién no ha saboreado el placer de una porción de algo? De membrillo, de chocolate en forma de bombón, de naranja convertida en gajos, de queso... Cada uno de esos momentos ha sido una porción de vida, centrado en el paladar, la textura y el deseo de que no termine... Porque así se nos presenta la vida, en porciones, formando un gran queso donde podemos encontrar desde gusanos hasta agujeros, pero también ternura y sabor; y donde hay que tener mucho cuajo para no darle un mordisco y comérselo a bocados.

Alive or living?

-        Get ready for the future – she said.
-        I’m not even ready for the present – replied her opposite.
-        But your present consists on building your future.
-        I cannot build anything which I don’t know whether will exist.
-        So, what will you spend your present on, then?
-        I will live.
-        And… What else?
-        What else? Don’t you consider this good enough?
-        Well, I live and I don’t feel good enough.
-        My girl, you are an alive human being, but you don’t live at all. You just exist. Think about that, transform your life and start living. If not, you will die even before dying.
-        But you have just said you are not ready for the present.
-        This is only because of the huge amount of opportunities I have in front of me. There are so many things to be done, that sometimes I feel asfixiated, don’t you?
-        Your comments have just asfixiated me, I cannot think of any other thing right now. But for some reason, I feel you have open the door I needed, and I can breath now. I’m grateful for that.
-        This is called relief.
