Wow! I love your blog´s concept.Thanks a lot for commenting in mine! Wow... you know? I think nothing can really asphyxiate happiness... maybe we never really know what happiness is, that´s why we tend to lose it.
This is quite wonderful as is the fact that folks from the favelas - where ever they may be and under whatever name they - do have suppressed sprit, but many still manage to make footprints in the sand. Nicely done.
How many times has this happened to me?? One minute happiness, the next minute a vague worry that fills my heart! Once again, great randomness in your thoughts which makes for some delightful reads!! Rachana.
adventurous beach poem.
