communal writing

The woman yawned. A long lazy noise came right out of her and was gone. It was an unearthly sound. She felt extremely tired after a bad night's sleep. Nightmares had plagued her since her early childhood but their vividness had increased of late. They had  become virtually indistinguishable from reality.

Nadia tentatively felt the other side of her bed with the back of her hand in vain. Her husband was gone.

communal writing

he remembered having once reflected upon the possibility of humans living like humans. there might have been a chance. some tribes had once truly believed in a pre-existing being, incomparable to anything real. this sole idea had made it possible to act humanely. they had feared the consequences of their injustices even if they were all essentially forgetful beings. some had lived hoping for an afterlife. a few believed their lives were gifts and followed a path set by their tenacious wills to be decent people.

an originator of duality and contradiction, possibility and opposition? modern notions of history and science didn t seem to allow for such an entity.

the fleeting idea of a being setting everything in motion or even surveying the unfolding of events in the universe was made more approachable by the existence of messengers; some were charlatans, others were unveilers.

our boy, though, was of a third kind. No categories really applied to him.

¿Por qué dudaste si era buena idea marcharte?  hesitant

¿tenias amigos o contactos antes de ir? friend/penpals/acquanintances

¿Conociste gente rápido? make friends

Diferencias y estereotipos.

¿Hubo algo que te hiciera sentir como un marciano al principio de tu estancia? alien

Reflexiones

Eres tantas personas como lenguas conoces. as the languages you speak

Si no has convivido con ellos, no tienes opiniones. Tienes prejuicios. hang out with them.

La amistad y el amor pueden ser universales pero la forma de entenderlos no lo es. love and friendship

Vivir y trabajar por un tiempo más allá de los límites físicos de nuestra rutina nos cambia. fundamentally change who we are...
