Amira Willighagen canta "O Mio Babbino Caro" / Amira Willighagen sings "O Mio Babbino Caro"
Grrr... No time for posts lately... but at least I am going to attach here this video which I found absolutely astonishing. This nine-year-old girl Amira Willighagen shows up to Holland's got talent with an opera song, and the performance is totally, absolutely beautiful. If you like music and good voices, don't miss this one!!
Better quality for the full screen, though no English subtitles:
Smaller video size, though with English subtitles:

"Here’s to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They’re not fond of rules and they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. But the only thing you can’t do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do".
"Aquesta va per als bojos. Els inadaptats. Els rebels. Els que porten problemes. Peces rodones en forats quadrats. Els que veuen les coses de manera diferent. Ells no s’atenen a les normes, i no tenen cap respecte per l’statu quo. Podeu citar-los, contradir-los, glorificar-los o vilipendiar-los. L’única cosa que no podeu fer, però, és ignorar-los. Perquè ells canvien les coses. Ells empenyen la humanitat endavant. I mentre alguns els poden veure com a bojos, nosaltres hi veiem genis. Perquè la gent que és prou boja com per creure que pot canviar el món, és la que el canvia".

Bon Nadal - Hymne Des Fraternisés (Joyeux Noël) / Merry Christmas - Hymne Des Fraternisés (Joyeux Noël)
Option 1:
The sound of rivers singing
A song I’ve often heard
It flows through me now
So clear and so loud
I stand where I am
And forever I’m dreaming of home
I feel so alone, I’m dreaming of home.
It’s carried in the air
The breeze of early morning
I see the land so fair
My heart opens wide
There’s sadness inside
I stand where I am
And forever I’m dreaming of home
I feel so alone, I’m dreaming of home.
This is no foreign sky
I see no foreign light
But far away am I
From some peaceful land
I’m longing to stand
A hand in my hand
... forever I’m dreaming of home
I feel so alone, I’m dreaming of home."

El Síndrome De La Granota Bullida / The Boiling Frog Syndrome
The story tells that if a frog is put into a pot of really hot water, the little animal, aware of the danger, will jump out of it so fast that no injuries will be found on its body. If the very same frog is put into a pot of cold water, instead, and then heated very slowly, the animal will adapt to the changes in the environment and will not jump out of the water even when it is very hot. At that moment, though, it is too late for her to jump out of the pot, and the little thing ends up boiled. This story can be applied to humans, too. When a painful environment approaches us progressively and slowly, we have such a capacity for adaptation that we sometimes lose the objective point of view of the situation, and our capacity of reaction.

Jonathan Reed - "Generació Perduda" - Lectura Endavant I Endarrere / Jonathan Reed - "Lost Generation" - Reading Forwards And Backwards
Molt curiós! Només ho he trobat en anglès, però. Quan la noia llegeix aquest text de Jonathan Reed de principi a fi, el missatge és pessimista. Llegint el mateix text però des del final cap al principi, en canvi, el missatge és optimista ;-)
Very curious! The same text, by Jonathan Reed, has opposite meanings when read forwards or backwards ;-)
(English video)
(English)
"I am part of a lost generation
And I refuse to believe that
I can change the world
I realize this may be a shock but
“Happiness comes from within”
Is a lie, and
“Money will make me happy”
So in 30 years I will tell my children
They are not the most important thing in my life
My employer will know that
I have my priorities straight because
Work
Is more important than
Family
I tell you this
Once upon a time
Families stayed together
But this will not be true in my era
This is a quick fix society
Experts tell me
30 years from now, I will be celebrating the 10th anniversary of my divorce
I do not concede that
I will live in a country of my own making
In the future
Environmental destruction will be the norm
No longer can it be said that
My peers and I care about this earth
It will be evident that
My generation is apathetic and lethargic
It is foolish to presume that
There is hope.
And all of this will come true unless we choose to reverse it."

"El Circo De La Mariposa" / "The Butterfly Circus"
At the beginning, I thought I would not like this short film at all. I foresaw it was going to be very sad, starring Nick Vujicic... But I kept on watching until the very end, and it turned out to be a really beautiful film. It is also about self improvement. Most of the times, we set our own limits!
