Hoje é o aniversário da minha querida mãe, que terá um post neste blog dedicado só a ela, isto muito em breve! Por isso, hoje quero apenas mandar-lhe, por este meio, um grande beijinho no coração!💖
Today is my dear mother’s birthday, and I’ll be posting a blog entry dedicated just to her very soon! So today, I just want to send her a big kiss right to her heart!💖

The truth is, my hesitation to publish this post stems from the fact that I’m provoked almost daily by various people—even those very close to me—with one provocation and betrayal after another, which has caused me a great deal of suffering. These people’s goal is to get a reaction out of me, so they can then say I’m overreacting or rude, and play the part of the saint and the victim, while I’m the one left looking bad in this dirty game they’re so well-trained and advised to play. So, after this post—which is, in fact, a reaction to what they’re doing to me—I hope that on my blog, anyone who doesn’t like what they read can go on with their life and never come back! The door is always open for anyone who feels they’ve been called out to leave!
These are just three examples that come to mind, but I have plenty more to share! Would these people like it if I played mind games with them just because I think they should change their behavior? Would they accept my meddling in their lives? What a lack of awareness and respect for my life and privacy! What pathetic little people you’ve turned out to be—look at yourselves. Don’t you have anything better to do? Well, there are some good perks, aren’t there?
You should know that you have blood on your hands. I hope you have serious pangs of conscience about what you’re doing. Of course, if you did, you would have stopped this a long time ago! I ask once again:
Have I ever meddled in your lives?
Just so you know, I don’t pick up on smoke signals, light signals, or Morse code, so cut out those stupid mind games—they make you look really bad. Don't show up at my door or call me—I won't answer! I dedicate this Muse song, “Sunburn,” to your conscience. I hope you sleep well tonight and every night! But remember that the Law of Return is waiting to give you a really painful sunburn—shame on you!
This post is a follow-up to this one

"O bater de asas de uma borboleta pode provocar um furacão do outro lado do mundo"
“The flutter of a butterfly's wings can trigger a hurricane on the other side of the world”
Let’s take a closer look at the name of the shopping center, “Soul Shopping,” and consider how we might interpret the combination of these two words. On the one hand, the word “Soul” evokes something sacred. For Catholics, every human being is endowed with a soul and is destined for eternal bliss. In Spiritism (I find this interpretation more accurate), the soul is the incarnated spirit; the soul survives the body and, in each life, continues to improve until it reaches perfection. From this point on, the soul will no longer incarnate, thus gaining eternal life.
As for the interpretation of modern science, some scientists have been trying to find evidence of the existence and nature of the human soul, but there is still no scientific proof of its existence. Neuroscience and recent discoveries in quantum physics regarding the properties of matter have opened up new avenues for study and the formulation of hypotheses that, until very recently, were mere science fiction theories. Let us say that the study of the human soul focuses on the study of the mind.
As for the other word: “Shopping”—we might ask ourselves how a word that evokes the sacred (Soul) can be paired with another that has such a mundane meaning: a place where people shop, consume, and indulge in trivialities—a place where the human soul is subjected to so many temptations, in short, a place of spiritual ruin! Is this meant to be provocative?
I agree with the consumerist view, not with the view that it leads to the ruin of souls! If we think about it, consumption can be a form of solidarity. How? When we consume, we’re contributing to the economy; we’re paying wages and generating profits for companies; we’re increasing domestic consumption and contributing to the country’s growth. If there are people—or souls—who idolize money and barely eat just to save it and build a mountain of cash in the bank, those people are a disaster for the economy.
I know people are always talking about responsible and mindful consumption, but unfortunately, even responsible consumption isn’t enough to save the planet and restore its balance. You know the environmentalists’ slogan: “There is no Planet B.” So how do we strike this balance? Family incomes and livelihoods versus the environment and ecological balance!
Conclusion: If we want a healthy planet Earth, this must be achieved by reducing the population and consumption. I ask: who wants to go back to the Stone Age? Any volunteers? Don’t give me that nonsense! Because no one is willing to give up their comfort!
Nesta luta pelo planeta qualquer consumo de texteis em Portugal pode provocar um furacão nos Estados Unidos! - Efeito borboleta! Preparem-se para mudar tudo o que vocês são e foram, o planeta B está à distância de um furacão! Como banda sonora deste post escolhi, mais uma vez, uma canção dos Muse: "Butterflies and Hurricanes"!
In this fight for the planet, any purchase of textiles in Portugal could trigger a hurricane in the United States! – The butterfly effect! Get ready to change everything you are and have been—Planet B is just a hurricane away! As the soundtrack for this post, I’ve chosen, once again, a song by Muse: “Butterflies and Hurricanes”!
