Amar, by Florbela Espanca
I want to love, love hopelessly!
Love just for the sake of love: Here ... beyond ...
Plus This and That, the Other and everyone ...
Love! Love! And don't love anyone!
Remember? Forget? Indifferent!...
Arrest or detach? And bad? Is well?
Anyone who says you can love someone
It is because you lie all your life!
There is a spring in every life:
We need to sing it li ..read more

I keep hearing stories from around the developed world about food poverty and how people are going hungry. In order to keep to the posting guidelines I'll confine this to Europe.
Most of Europe has relatively high levels of welfare.
Most of the images I see and people I see being interviewed are overweight. Some are morbidly obese. How can you claim to not have enough to eat when you are fat?
I can easily feed the family on two Euro a day when I have to and I live in an expensive country, much more expensive that most of the UK. Are people really claiming that they don't have 2 euro or �1.7 ..read more
