WILD POEMS ( TRANSLATED FROM J.R.Jimenez)



POEMAS AGRESTES  (1910-11)
BY Juan Ramón Jimenez
(Translated by M.H.)

… And I will go, and birds will rest singing
And my orchard will remain,
with its green trees and its white pit.

Alll afternoons, the sky is blue and calm
And they will ring, as they are doing  today
Yes, the bells of the bellfry.

They will die, the ones who love me
And the village will renew every year
And in that corner of my flowery White orchard
My soul will wander ……….nostalgic.

…………And I will go, and I will be alone,
No home, no green tree, no white pit
No blue and calm sky
                        And the birds will remain singing…………….

FALLING IN LOVE / STAYING IN LOVE



DID YOU KNOW YOU CAN FALL IN LOVE WITH ANYONE JUST BY ASKING THEM 36 QUESTIONS?

 Mandy Len Catron tried this experiment, it worked, and she wrote a viral article about it. But is that real love? Did it last? And what’s the difference between falling in love and staying in love? Experts say that the passion of love lasts no more than one or two years... then, it develops in a different feeling.

CLIMATE CHANGE IS HERE..........(by Marina García)





CLIMATE CHANGE IS HAPPENING. HERE´S HOW WE ADAPT


Imagine the hottest day you've ever experienced. Now imagine it's six, 10 or 12 degrees hotter. According to climate researcher Alice Bows-Larkin, that's the type of future in store for us if we don't significantly cut our greenhouse gas emissions now. She suggests that it's time we do things differently—a whole system change, in fact—and seriously consider trading economic growth for climate stability.

YOU CAN GROW NEW BRAIN CELLS....!! ( Mónica Enciu)

Neuroscientist Sandrine Thuret says that we can, and she offers research and practical advice on how we can help our brains better perform neurogenesis—improving mood, increasing memory formation and preventing the decline associated with aging along the way.      

Now Robert is not a neuroscientist, and when he went to medical school he was not taught what we know now -- that the adult brain can generate new nerve cells.

HE has estimated that we produce 700 new neurons per day in the hippocampus. You might think this is not much, compared to the billions of neurons we have. But by the time we turn 50, we will have all exchanged the neurons we were born with in that structure with adult-born neurons. And what we've known already for very long, is that this is important for learning, memory, mood and emotion.

ALL DESEASES WILL BE CURED.... !!!! (Marcos -Adm 3)

Soon we will cure diseases with a cell, not a pill.


HOW MY MIND CAME BACK TO LIFE & NO ONE KNEW (Vanesa Martinez)


HOW MY MIND CAME BACK TO LIFE – AND NO ONE KNEW

Imagine being unable to say, "I am hungry", "I am in pain," "thank you," or "I love you,” — losing your ability to communicate, being trapped inside your body, and surrounded by people yet utterly alone. For 13 long years, that was Martin Pistorius’s reality. After contracting a brain infection at the age of twelve, Pistorius lost his ability to control his movements and to speak, and eventually he failed every test for mental awareness. He had become a ghost. But then a strange thing started to happen — his mind began to knit itself back together.


“An aromatherapist began coming to the care home about once a week. Whether through intuition or her attention to details that others failed to notice, she became convinced that I could understand what was being said. She urged my parents to have me tested by experts in augmentative and alternative communication. And within a year, I was beginning to use a computer program to communicate. It was exhilarating, but frustrating at times. I had so many words in my mind, that I couldn't wait to be able to share them. Sometimes, I would say things to myself simply because I could. In myself, I had a ready audience, and I believed that by expressing my thoughts and wishes, others would listen, too.”

TIPS FOR LONELY PEOPLE......(by Pablo Alonso)



               (by Pablo Alonso )
Loneliness is a subjective feeling. You may be surrounded by other people, friends, family, workmates — yet still feel emotionally or socially disconnected from those around you. Other people are not guaranteed to shield us against the raw emotional pain that loneliness inflicts.

But raw emotional pain is only the beginning of the damage loneliness can cause. It has a huge impact on our physical health as well. Loneliness activates our physical and psychological stress responses and suppresses the function of our immune systems. This puts us at increased risk for developing all kinds of illness and diseases, including cardiovascular disease. Shockingly, the long-term risk chronic loneliness poses to our health and longevity is so severe, it actually increases risk of an early death by 26%.
