My Mantra

 

https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07H44DYF7 

My mantra leads me far

out of the daily usual borders

of the surrounding physical space:

and it seems to me so different and deceptive

the ancestral conception of the world,

when the mind lays down

on shapeless spots of indistinct colored flashes

and now drowns on them, happily unconscious,

then pursues the swallows

along the sounding corridors they trace in the air,


lost in their twittering accents

which nothing explain to human intellect

but yet lighten up all its restless minds!

 

And while the world regains

Its usual forms,

a doubt re-emerges slowly to surface:

if it were better for us to discover

how we are connected to nature

before seeking

new, remote and distant worlds!

Great Velàzquez

Who knows how many masteerpieces rely forgotten in family's cupboards, mixed up with valueless tools.
It's just what happened to the Shepperson, an ordinary family from Oxfordshire.
Between a good number of anonymous paints they discovered a 3 million £ Velàzquez masterpiece.
To be more precise it was discovered by Mr Mckenzie, from Bonham auctioneers who are going to sell it the next 7th december.
The  great spanish artist painted the Portrait of Gentleman Juan Mateos, that's the name of the 99th Velàzquez paint, most probably in 1632 and was bought by Mathews Shepperson in 1820 for as much as seven shillings.
A quarter of pound really well spent.

Only two hundred years left


That's the time Manhood has left before the Earth been destroyed ( by nuclear disaster and/or accident.)
It's the qualified opinion espressed by astrofisicist Stephen Hawking in an interview released to a Webchannel.
The great scientist also believes that Humanity needs to colonize the space, in order to survive to his own destruction.
He added that crisis such that suffered in 1963, at the time Russian and American risk to face each other in a nuclear world war for Cuban missils, will have place again and again in the next history of men's relation, making the risk of selfdestruction.
But if men succeed in avoiding such an event in the next two hundred years, they will be able to conquer the space.
