Connection
“Words written on a page are incomplete. Nonfiction works, poems or novels will end when someone takes them and pays attention. The connection is collaborative. You have to read the words to make them meaningful.”
Kae Tempest, On Connection.
You will give meaning to these words. There's been a bridge between the two, and you're coming as a clap of letters grabbed by the eyes. Perhaps we do not agree with you and I, or we have believed it, because in most cases the definition of the “other” defines the “I”, but if you continue here, our doors may have been open from the very beginning, it is possible that the voice we hear in our heads inside as these letters develop is the same for both. What voice do you hear? I do this.
"If you are still on this bridge, I would like you to know that I will take care of my door and leave it open to the fullest."
Tempeste states that a 2014 study showed a curious phenomenon. Several people were asked to watch some videos. The images showed actors putting their hands in icy water, people unknown to the public. Apparently, the temperature of the public's hands decreased as he looked at these images. This proved that we are able to respond physiologically to the situation of the couple, which can also be a physical empathy.
In 2017, another investigation was conducted along the same lines and came to the same conclusion. They monitored the heartbeat of the public who was watching a play. They soon realized that the beats were syncing, accelerating and slowing down at the same time as the show. This response system shows that from the beginning we are prepared for emotional understanding and group cohesion.
All of this may seem a little useless in this kind of World War III antechamber, which pulls us away so far when there are so many abyss in our lives. The call to unity can be a trap, that is clear.
But if you are still on this bridge, I would like you to know that I will take care of my door and leave it open as I can, even if it is a slice. I will try not to become a carapace and not always blame the other, on the street, on the tabside, on the other side of the screen. Whenever I have left the door open I am surprised by who has crossed and I have always learned something. Because many times the doors that were closed were open. Maybe we don't go beyond the bridge, but look, we've come here together.

In this frenetic and vertiginous world in which we live, the social changes that take place little by little seem to us to be sometimes imperceptible, irrelevant or insignificant. That is not the case, however, and we have to be aware of it in order to act wisely. An example of... [+]
On Sunday of September it is customary to climb to Ernio, dance in Zelatun and eat brown chorizo, or something. The worst time you don't need people. This year, when my friends were leaving earlier and I was delaying, I would go up alone, finding the crews coming down. Most young... [+]
In the border book of The House on Mango Street, written by Sandra Cisneros, a character's dog has two names: one in Spanish and one in English. It may be odd at first sight, even for a book, but if you think more calmly, you realize that the world is full of double names. And I... [+]

As in the Middle Ages God dominated, in modern times we live under the market and its rigid laws. The high level wages are determined by the market, as the prizes of the CEOs of Iberdrola or BBVA mark the markets of their sector, although they take 300 times more to the bag than... [+]

That was said to me by the former student, who took a long time to file a complaint that was in court months and who, on the recommendation of the psychologist, had withdrawn the complaint of rape. And I kept quiet, unable to guess what to tell the young man that he still had... [+]
Isn't it a sign of pride to look at the people in front of me as if they weren't people? Yes, of course yes. But how can we expect others to understand? Understand, observe, look. Does wanting to understand others not require this proud attitude? Knowing what it is to be a person,... [+]
They say it's been a year. I have never understood the arrogant habit that Westerners have: even if the conflict lasts almost a century, we adapt the dates to our liking, giving away the importance we want. Has the last era been different for the Palestinians who are imprisoned... [+]
