Bookcrossing



O Bookcrossing é um clube de livros global, que atravessa o tempo e o espaço.
É um grupo de leitura que não conhece limites geográficos.
Os seus membros gostam tanto de livros que não se importam de se separar deles, libertando-os, para que possam ser encontrados por outros.
O objectivo do Bookcrossing é transformar o mundo inteiro numa biblioteca.

Os três "Erres" do Bookcrossing
Read - Lê um bom livro
Register - Regista-o. Cria um diário para esse livro, dá-lhe um número de identificação(BCID) e cola-lhe uma etiqueta
Release - Liberta-o para que outra pessoa o possa ler (entrega-o a um amigo, deixa-o num banco do jardim, esquece-te dele num café) e recebe uma notificação por email cada vez que alguém encontra o livro e escreve uma mensagem no seu diário.

Parece fácil, certo? Pois é! É também um exercício fascinante sobre o destino, karma. E além disso é totalmente grátis e privado.

Por isso tira um ou dois livros da tuas prateleiras (não estão lá a fazer nada pois não? Apenas a ganhar poeira), regista-os em http://www.bookcrossing-portugal.com e depois oferece-os ou deixa-os onde podem ser encontrados por alguém.

Where did your fantasy stopped?

Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honah Lee
Little Jackie Paper loved that rascal Puff,
and brought him strings and sealing wax and other fancy stuff.

Oh Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honah Lee
Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honah Lee

Together they would travel on a boat with billowed sail
Jackie kept a lookout perched on Puff's gigantic tail,
Noble kings and princes would bow whene'er they came,
Pirate ships would lower their flags when Puff roared out his name.

Oh Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honah Lee
Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honah Lee

A dragon lives forever but not so little boys
Painted wings and giant rings make way for other toys.
One grey night it happened, Jackie Paper came no more
And Puff that mighty dragon, he ceased his fearless roar.

His head was bent in sorrow, green scales fell like rain,
Puff no longer went to play along the cherry lane.
Without his life-long friend, Puff could not be brave,
So Puff that mighty dragon sadly slipped into his cave.

Oh Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honah Lee
Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honah Lee

New beginning...

Time to face what you are hiding from
Don't have to do this on your own
Together we are strong
We don't need anyone
No matter what they say the time has come

I'm ready now to start a new beginning
With all our hopes and all our dreams
And I know the stars will shine for you and for me
From the moment you believe

I know they think that I'm no good for you
But we both know that they're wrong
Together we can fight
Show everyone we're right
I don't care what they say our time has come

When you believe there's nothing you can't overcome
When you believe the earth is brighter than the sun
I believe

Big girls don't cry

The smell of your skin lingers on me now
You're probably on your flight back to your home town
I need some shelter of my own protection baby
To be with myself and center, clarityPeace, Serenity

The path that I'm walkingI must go alone
I must take the baby steps 'til I'm full grown,
Fairytales don't always have a happy ending, do they?
And I foresee the dark ahead if I stay

Like the little school mate in the school yard
We'll play jacks and uno cards
I'll be your best friend and you'll be my Valentine
Yes you can hold my hand if you want to
'Cause I want to hold yours too

We'll be playmates and lovers and share our secret worlds
But it's time for me to go home
It's getting late, dark outside
I need to be with myself and center, clarity
Peace, Serenity

I hope you know, I hope you know
That this has nothing to do with you
It's personal, myself and I
We've got some straightenin' out to do
And I'm gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket
But I've got to get a move on with my life
It's time to be a big girl now
And big girls don't cry
Don't cry

Ditado chinês

Até aos 30 anos és a cara q Deus te deu
a partir dos 30 és tu próprio.


Diz-se que por volta dessa idade há uma crise. Mas crise não é sinónimo de algo negativo, antes pelo contrário. Nós só vemos isso negativo porque estamos enraizados na nossa forma que não vemos o conteúdo, não percebemos o que realmente é nosso e o que é de nossos pais, familiares, amigos.

E a crise é mesmo isso, é perceber que este padrão não me serve mais, é como se fosse uma peça de roupa que deixou de servir e ou tu olhas para o q te está a causar atrito ou o q te causa atrito olha para ti. Não há como fugir a isso

Ou maomé vai à montanha ou a montanha vai a maomé.

Little wonders

Let it go,
let it roll right off your shoulder
don’t you know the hardest part is over?

Let it in,
let your clarity define you
in the end we will only just remember how it feels

Our lives are made in these small hours
these little wonders,
these twists & turns of fate
time falls away,
but these small hours,
these small hours still remain

Let it slide,
let your troubles fall behind you
let it shine until you feel it all around you
and I don’t mind if it’s me you need to turn to we’ll get by,
it’s the heart that really matters in the end

Our lives are made in these small hours
these little wonders,
these twists & turns of fate
time falls away,
but these small hours,
these small hours still remain

All of my regret will wash away some how
but I can not forget the way I feel right now

In these small hours
these little wonders,
these twists & turns of fate
these twists & turns of fate
time falls away
but these small hours
these small hours, still remain, still remain
these little wonders,
these twists & turns of fate
time falls away
but these small hours
these little wonders still remain

Would you?

We'll do it all, everything on our own
We don't need anything or anyone.
I don't quite know how to say how I feel
Those three words are said too much
They're not enough
Forget what we're told before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life
Let's waste time chasing cars around our heads
I need your grace to remind me to find my own
All that I am all that I ever was
Is here in your perfect eyes, they're all I can see
I don't know where
Confused about how as well
Just know that these things will never change for us at all
If I lay here, if I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

o ir abaixo é o mais fácil

Devido a uma coisa que se chama força da gravidade. O desafio está em manter-nos lá em cima, a flutuar.
