Hola My beautiful .... (Foreshadowing that the email and 'longish ...' cause lot of things happened ... so for those who do not have time, I recommend printing ...)
Panama in December began with thousands of lights and I invested in University cinema audience with colleagues the new documentary produced by MTV Latin America and UNICEF.
since I returned from Honduras, my life had a rhythm, for various maturities in the office and for organizing the event commemorating the first of December, which as already know, and 'World AIDS Day : I have coordinated with another Anna, Belgrade, (then we made friends with whom) the presentation of the documentary "Confesion a diary" (go to link: Launched in August by MTV and UNICEF in order to portray the situation of youth 'social problems of Latin America and the investing daily, including AIDS. The projection was in the cinema hall + large public universities in Panama, deliberately chosen to reach a large number of young people, so it was ... and after there was a session of questions and answers ... in short, the stress is gone to see the result!!
To browse a bit 'during the campaign, go to the link with the UNICEF campaign that I am following in Latin America and Shakira, er Totti, Paolo Maldini as embassadors-and-speakers .... link to http://www.unicef.org/lac/overview_4168.htm
Last Thursday I went to the Conference of Patch Adams, the doctor's nose clown, who came to visit some hospitals in Panama.
To read the interview in English that we did, visit the link: http://www.unicef.org/lac/media_7023.htm
... Patch Adams, interests! He has sixty annni, but great energy and enthusiasm ... preaches love as a way of life and says her vitìa changed when they decided not to complain +, and loving every situation and every person who appeared before .... criticized the United Nations, saying that if they were an army of clowns conil-red nose, perhaps otterebbero + results - and that money ruins people that is in it ... has also pointed out the very-compassionate, on the absurdity that no medical school in the world has in its academic program, the compassion and empathy, as a school subject ... said that three things are essential in life: 's intention, which must be clear and clean, the resulting performance (action) and take into account the consequences ... in short, is not the discovery of hot water, but confirmation of Buddhist principles.
During the conference, also showed video of children with disabilities around the world, the children invited on stage in a wheelchair and sick with cancer, and then make them laugh by putting on a clown suit. In short, Robin Williams plays the character beautifully adult at the bottom and 'a Great Peter Pan della vita... e ci insegna a non –ingrigirsi- mai dietro alle maschere della professione, e dei soldi o delle targhette sulle porte, ma di continuare a nutrire il nostro spirito di ricerca e l'amore per l'umanità.
Due giorni fa è venuta a salutarmi Maria, la donna peruviana che avevo conosciuto i primi giorni per strada qui nel Casco viejo.... partiva ieri per il Messico in cerca di fortuna con il suo bambino Scott... ma non partivano in aereo, stanno viaggiando per terra, senza permesso di soggiorno.... ciò significa pagare il cosiddetto –coyote- (o magnaccio...detto nel nostro linguaggio popolare) per poter attraversare la frontiera... vanno in Messico perchè qui ha perso il lavoro e perchè il bimbo ha il visto American (his father is American ).... short story every day for many people struggling to find prosperity in this land ... I gave Scott a six disposable cameras so that he can retract his special experience of crossing the Central American land, can focus on his dreams, expectations, fears over this trip, photographing her suitcase, and as part how it gets ... the idea is that then he send me the negatives and photographs of the schools I publish the story in a book from which they derive income for his studies ... we'll see who comes out ... In short, we said goodbye and wished each other a lot SUERTE ... she says, "I'm calm because you have given us many positive expectations ...." and the next day, I wake up, I open the door and found behind a box with a phone number above ... in the box were all the photographs of Mary's life when he lived in Peru, when Scott was born, when they lived in Miami ... I did not understand why at the beginning of his act .... then I caught ... she leaves in my hands part of the wire that is drawing in his life ... leaves me with its past, and will fire snapshots of his present ... and then these, once started, is reunification with the past ... In short, I do not know if it's one of my films, but it seems a very, very strong gesture on his part .... almost to want to say-protect what has been ...-
This will be my first Christmas Land America ... is really strange to see the red and yellow lights around the trees, and sweating in the heat ... It is as if the brain says, - there is something wrong ?"... is a Christmas atmosphere, which has its own charm .... three days ago made a great feast in the main square, next to the waterfront , to turn a huge tree, (clearly sponsorised by Coca Cola ...) just like they do in New York in Times Square, ... the series: "The American dream continues to generate drafts" and then ... each park, there are the puppets and sheep, in general, the symbols + Christmas here seem happy and playful, easy-going and why are all made of ceramic or colored lights above ... have already put the Magi, three colored men that look like dwarfs funny and awkward ... while we are riding the Omoni ... that's fun to see how they change shapes and colors here!
For now the plan is to go Christmas vacation in the mountains, just to stay around in the European theme-of-house warm in the cold outside ... probably be close to the border with Costa Rica in the area of \u200b\u200bBoquete, with the group of those who are not lucky enough to go home with your family ... we should rent a cottage, the area is famous for volcanoes and green hills ... but since here we can easily change the plan, it is said that at the last bait out a beach ...
So we will see that I reserve my first Christmas away from home, and you combine that?!
Today's full moon here, the night is wonderful, I have seen and enjoyed the first sunset on the waterfront of Panama, at last, after adjusting + or not the house, I can feel the karma of the place-where I'm living ... rincoferma is the view of Panama as a NO PLACE as a center of trade, exchange of goods, shops and services ... we say that could be a perfect mix between a young Milan (for the development of the services and elegance) and a Latin city and the sea sparkling Caribbean ... Many compare Panama to Miami, but fortunately you can breathe here + Latin spirit ... a fraternal spirit, cheerful, resigned but tasty ... normally I'm going to run to the Causeway, which is the last piece of waterfront, a sort of strip of coastline dotted with palm trees, which ends on an island green ... is a nice way, because on the one hand you see the Bridge of the Americas (which I like too) and the other the Casco Viejo, MY BARRIO, which is small and cute ...
Today Sunday, I was running there, then returning home I was attracted by the notes coming from the Teatro Anita Villalaz, always in Casco Viejo, and I came ... There was a folk spettacoo of children with typical clothes and live music ... it was fun, ... Panamanian local music is a mix of African (Caribbean) and South American, they say that Carnival is very strong here, and which is organized by a party name CONGO ... basic tools are the congas, guitar, accordion ...
And today I learned that Friday 'send me to Nicaragua to help the home to the country for the event "IV Festivakl of Radio and Television of children and adolescents ... that will be featured 24 hours of broadcasts on Childhood / AIDS / Human Rights ... In short, I do not have time to relax in Panama, I have to travel .... but I can not but be glad, because I like troppooooooooo!
I hope I've provided a little taste of the place ... ITALY is very, very popular here ... we are very well liked in every corner of the world ... why people feel our heat ... with this, non voglio Peccare di nazionalismo, ma ahimè! Risulta che sono nata in una delle terre + speciali al mondo e ne vado fiera (pur tra i suoi mille difetti...)
Allora un Buon Dicembre a tutti, che sia caldo e morbido come vorrebbero venderlo in pubblicità (!!!), ma anche pungente e brillante come sa il freddo del mattino europeo che ti sveglia in un nano secondo...
Dalla "Calle Primera" di Casco San Felipe, con affetto per ognuno...
Anna
