Brincava num monte de areia. Talvez tivesse uns dez metros de altura. Não sei ao certo. Comigo um rapaz que devia ser meu irmão e mais um homem que eu não sei quem era.
Além de escalar a montanha de areia eu ainda me preocupava em segurar um caderno em forma de fichário.
O garoto e eu conversávamos sobre coisas sem importância enquanto nos equilibrávamos na areia que sob nossos pés e mãos deslizava morro abaixo e assim tentava levar-nos para o fundo.
Chegou à hora de descer do monte. Apanhei um punhado de areia ergui a mão e disse:
- Vou alimentar o sol - creio que estava pensando quanta energia estava contida naqueles grãos de areia.
Lá embaixo encontrei uma criança. Ela era pequena e tinha cabelos pretos. Teria no máximo quatro anos de idade. Não dissemos nada. Ela era minha irmã. Sentei no chão, coloquei-a no colo e a abracei. Então senti o amor tomar conta de mim. Era algo que quase se podia tocar. Nesse momento chorei. Chorei aos soluços. Chorei de alegria e de amor. Posso dizer que chorei assim, pois isso já me aconteceu uma vez na vida.
E assim entre o amor e as lágrimas de felicidade eu acordei.

Gym against time
Finally after many years without any practice physical activity, and when I say no it is serious, I frequent a nearby gym in my workplace. No is too luxurious or to draw attention, however I believe that their modest facilities will properly serve my purposes.
With the arrival of years I have noticed that it i have noticed that it is more difficult to allow the tie, climbing stairs or even do a walk through quickstep. The time is not there for us. He will simply squeezing the knob around our necks simply going slowly tightening the garrotte. Having fun with the garrotte. Having fun with our gradual swoon. The belly grows, the veins close, the hair falls and memory ... Ah! The memory makes a point of remembering what happened to twenty years ago, but did not remember where you left your car keys. Thus I have left no alternative but to run. I will race against time. Battle to win space in this race. Dispute each breath that I can recover and keep it until the last moment. I am not to give me so early. It is a tussle worthless, because we know in advance who will be victorious. It is no use for me to have a son, plant a tree or write a book. After all my name will be forgotten, my achievements will change in dust and left no one trace of my passage through the world. And that comes only to confirm my status of traveller in existence.
But leaving aside the bitterness the good news is that I would do exercises and my knees will be grateful.
