the chiflón
I woke up at 7:30, I made a quick shower, prepared a backpack and walked to the south of the city. I crossed the main road between the Pan American hysterical screams and almost incomprehensible number of minibus drivers shouting their destinations trying to drown out the noise of traffic and that of clacsons taxi in search of customers.
Sitting comfortably enough, on a minibus with 12 seats, assigned Comitan, I admired the pristine landscape out the window. The high mountains covered by a dark green carpet of evergreen trees, is slowly transforming them into colorful hills of orange, ocher and pale green. The driver drove quickly but with caution and address the apparent curve of the road down safely. I have known Rudy, a Mexican boy, as were all the other passengers, about my age. He has thick eyebrows, flattened nose and his gentle smile is adorned with two small pits that form on the cheeks. He was very friendly and helpful in giving me information on how to reach the waterfalls Chiflon, where I was heading. After 'hours and 45 minutes of pleasant conversation with Rudy, who arrived in Comitan, about 80km south of San Cristobal de Las Casas, I went to another party collective that is after just three minutes after my arrival. He made some stops on the main road which crosses the city, completely filled, until he turned right immersed in the highlands of Chiapas. Half an hour more later, I ended curves, and with them also the mountains. On top of a hill, in front of me is proved to be an 'immense green plain, which was lost horizon.
The road was devoid of curves and mountains flanked the wall to my right.
I could not see the end and I felt a huge roller coaster with continuous ups and downs. Dropped crossing to the falls, I took a motorcycle taxi, or those in Antigua, Guatemala, more commonly called: Tuc-Tuc. He took me to the entrance of the park and from there I started my walk uphill along the river that runs along the entier. I made a few breaks, not so much for the effort, but to photograph the beautiful scenery that I had under my eyes. I came up on top, sweaty and eager to see the great waterfall about 80m high, dominated the landscape with overbearing authorities. It seemed to be the mother of those more experienced in small and modest way, that Creach at their feet beautiful natural pools of icy water. I wanted to tuffarmici within, Because to give up, I is enough to get the ankles and feet feel frozen.
I stayed there a couple of hours, sitting in the shade on a small wooden bench, under the imposing waterfall, refreshed by the breeze carried by the wind.
I am immersed in the pages of my book, mesmerized by the words and isolated from the noise of the huge mass of water falling from the sky. Only when people began to arrive to interrupt my silence, I sat on the way back.
Now I'm here, sitting on a stone bench around a table, on the river bank. The crystal clear emerald green water, descends slowly caressing the smooth rocks causing a rustle relaxing. The reflections of the sun they sparkle by covering with a cloak of brilliant. The brightly colored butterflies flying in the fresh air blending with the leaves, swinging, falling from the trees like snowflakes. Here, the anger, the strength and supremacy of the waterfall "mother" turns into a placid and gentle motion that patient flows to the bottom of white sand.
I try to relax, to enjoy fully this when surrounded by nature. Listening to the sounds of the forest and try to free my mind, but I can not! My thoughts are far from that enchanted place, slow flow, as the waters of the river, and me back in time. I try to defeat them, to swim against the tide to rise and the falls of love that I have filled my heart. I cling to every branch that protrudes from the shores of my soul, but I can not! Not yet. I can not forget, I can not think ....

Yankee Candle Wax Warmer
-Mexico-Chiapas 23/02/1910 San Cristobal de Las Casas, Mexico Huatulco-Mexico
I arrived at 9.30 this morning in San Cristobal de Las Casas, in the State of Chiapas. Having well-worn tourist visa to 3 months of Huatulco, I decided to come back here, where I had been for a week, about a month and a half ago. From here I want to visit the State of Chiapas and then cross the border, go into Guatemala, through and reach the central part of Belize, the Caribbean Sea.
Leaving the bus station, tired and sleepy after a whole night of traveling, I met some guys that Mexican, very gently and without too much insistence began to offer me some accommodation in hostels, inns and hotels. Equipped with all those colorful brochures with maps of the city I started to walk toward the center. Before reaching the main square, I turned right toward the hardware store of Victor, the brother of my friend Marcos to go to him for advice.
The sun shone in the cloudless sky in the cool morning in late winter, the one-way traffic in the streets was yet to come to life and the atmosphere was very relaxing. Just when I began to feel fatigue due to the weight of my backpack, I met a little boy with coffee-colored skin and gentle face. He stopped and asked yourself looking for a place to sleep. I showed him the colored cards in my hand and said I had already done a lot of offers, to the station. He too was headed there in search of customers and invited me to go see her hostel. The hostel is called "The Cratina" as the bar that is attached. Outside, the house is pink and can be entered through a small iron door. `There is one large room with couches and a small television, going up a few stairs there is an old but clean kitchen, available for guests. They are housed in a room that has 3 bunk beds. The price is exactly one third of that of a single room with private bathroom and is equivalent to approximately 2.70 € per night. In the room there's no no, for now, and being low season there is a possibility that remains for a few days.
It is the first time in my trip, I choose the option to share a room with someone and I'm very curious about how it can be.
I slept for a couple of hours, took a shower and then went out to eat. I shall be satisfied in a typical restaurant and Economic with a "HOT de pollo, served with white rice, tortillas and hot sauce.
Now I'm sitting at a table in a bar in the wonderful central plaza of this colonial town that both fascinates me and let me transport operator from the thoughts and memories.
get out of Huatulco and has been without doubt the most difficult and painful thing of my trip. I left the bus station with her eyes full of tears and a big lump in my throat that obstruct breathing. Discordant thoughts collided in my mind like the waves of a stormy sea. A great void was forming inside of me and the fear of not riucire to fill it stabs my stomach like a sharp sword.
It took me a lot to make this decision and to do I thought very, very much.
Most of the time it was no use, did not match any documents.
I believe that in life you should listen to your heart, the problem is when he is right to say two opposite things. So you do not know who to ask more and what to choose.
I heard a voice that cries out for many years in me and so I hope I did the right thing.
"You can not destroy love. Not even hatred can destroy it. You can destroy the passion, tenderness, concern, or maybe you can counteract these feelings, transforming them into a deep regret, but love itself you can not destroy it. Love is a passionate search of a truth, different from yours, and if you live in a frank and full, love is eternal. Every act of love, every impulse of the heart outward, is a part of universal good: it is a part of God, or what we call God, and can never die. "(From" Shantaram ")
Last night, once again, my heart is broken, last night, again I have a broken heart.

Jc Penny Outlet Ontario Mills Application
I will not say 'it' when 'with whom, however,' I want to tell where they are over a few nights ago.
Me and my friend, I will call 'Jo, we came out, late in the evening, from his home in search of a little' nightlife. The air was cool and moist After the unusual rain in the afternoon. For the past week is over the peak season and the locality 'where I live now for three months, called "La Crucecita, seemed deserted compared to a few days earlier. It was a Thursday 'evening, and after a short car ride in the center, Jo told me that his friend would play live in a bar near the square. When we entered the room, only two of the many dark iron tables were occupied. We sat at the bar and orders a beer.
The waiter informs us 'that night there would be no live music' cause the musician had not come to work. After having drained the last sip from the bottle of Corona, Jo told me that it was better to change local and try something more 'animated. We tried 2 other bars, but with the same result. Wandering into the car through the deserted streets of Huatulco, had already made almost 2.00 and I proposed to return home. Without realizing it we were leaving the center and it is in the suburbs.
It 'easy to notice the difference in this area compared to the tourist center of Crucecita. There are bars, restaurants, hotels, but only a few small shops and "Taqueria". The narrow streets and lack of lighting makes the room very dark and not very reassuring. Small and old houses seem stacked one above the other, separated only by dirty and untidy yards, used to store items and home appliances, now unusable. We passed a room with pink neon lights that lit up a big tent under a red carpet leading to the entrance. Before I tell me, I realized that was a Strip-Club.
around the corner from the open window to enter Jo heard the big music mixed with hysterical laughter coming from a door open. Behind a curtain of red cloth, which looked like he was about to fall at any moment, filtered through the psychedelic lights that moved in the shadows of people. Jo and I looked at each other for a few seconds with an 'expression of surprise, and our smiles made us understand that we were both curious about what was going on behind that tent. We did it again around the block and parked a few meters before the entrance. Jo gave him 10 pesos to a child about 10 years who was sitting on the sidewalk and had tied around his neck, a lace cloth that held a small box full of candy, snack, snacks and packets of cigarettes.
We assure you 'that would control the car until we return and try' in vain to sell us something. With your right hand, scostai the red curtain and when I slipped the head inside the room, I was surrounded by an air humid and muggy.
I made my way among the people and reached a stone table with benches, a few meters from the bar. There was just a big fan place on earth that did circulate the air thick and smelly, but without changing consistency. The stench of smoke mingled with the smell of beer acid spilled on the ground, creating a nasty mixture to which I could not get used. We ordered two beers, and before drinking, I bother to clean the neck of the bottle with a paper towel. Customers of the restaurant were exclusively men. The many girls who danced with them or who consumed sitting at the bar were all prostitutes. Dozens of bottles, with now only a bit of foam on the bottom, filled the tables were wet and served in quick succession by a boy of not more than 20 years. At the end of the dance floor, a fat man put the music behind a console and sang traditional Mexican songs. I think the only people not drunk we were in that space and I Jo. When I went to the bathroom,
not believe my eyes. All'mprovviso looks dirty and smelly the room seemed almost to be cleaned.
not even have the courage to enter, seeing the door ajar excrement floating in the toilet blocked and attacked by a hideous stench.
I sat down and told Jo to finish quickly the beer because `the experience" mystical "to visit a brothel in the Mexican slums I had been completely satisfied. One of the girls got out of the table next to ours and call him `the first and then me to dance. `He will have weighed at least 100 kg, was wearing a miniskirt that highlights the enormous cellulite thighs wrapped in a tight T-shirt that came just above the navel and let out a layer of fat on which large breasts flaccid leaned as powerless. The chubby face the first thing that stood out had a mustache, dark and visible as the hairs that cover most of the arms. In fact, all the local girls is roughly equal to that description, some looking more decent, but certainly not inviting. The same was true for men, fat, dirty and completely drunk. I was horrified and disgusted by that environment dirty and the only thing I wanted was to leave. After a few minutes that we had entered, the child should have the machine by `sorvergliarci to sell its products and began to make round tables. I bought the lollipops, trying in vain to deaden the pain I felt for him and the guilt over the fact that not doing anything to help him. Compassion for the people around me, to those poor girls, to those desperate drunks, fighting with a sense of anger and disgust at what they did and that seemed to be happy. All
`hard and when I returned about half an hour to finally inhale breathable air, I felt reborn, but it took several hours ere I pass the nausea and that sweet smell came out of my nostrils. Jo
I promised that I would never repeat such an experience more and asked him how he could be, a place like that and His reply was: "The Mexico is full of places like this! You have no idea how many there are."
I did take home and, before falling asleep, I stopped to think about how lucky I was. I did not see beggars, sick people or people with serious problems, Because I thought I might get lucky, lucky not to be like them. Do not accuse them, there is no one to do it, Because I believe in life, almost always, there is a way out, the problem is that many want to stay in!

Can I Put Paper Baking Cups Into The Oven
02/21/1910 12/02/1910 05/02/1910
The feeling you get, the first time that you can breathe underwater, you can not 'forget. The fear is combined with the excitement, the wonder of succeeding, with anxiety that at any moment does not come more 'air from the strange object which is held between his teeth. The air enters the lungs and 'cold and dry like the one that reigns in the early morning on a snowy mountain. Every breath you hear the rustle of the mixture of oxygen and nitrogen pass into the respirator and the lungs fill, followed by the gurgle of air bubbles that form when you exhale and pass before the eyes wide open, go back quickly to the surface.
By pressing the red button you need to empty the jacket sleeve that holds the bottle placed behind you, it is void of air that makes you float and slowly begins to fall. The feeling of going down 'and' almost imperceptible because of visibility 'of the reduced form and a lot of concentration in the air. They are the ears, due to increased pressure, with long dense remind you to compensate. Arrived at the bottom, and supported for the first time my knees on the seabed to 7 meters deep 'it more' difficult thing is to stay balanced. It seems that someone that you can not see, you're pulling from side to side trying to make you fall to the ground. The belt of weights tied to life helps you to find some stability 'and to stop unnecessarily smanacciare seeking balance.
The first thing that I realized in moving underwater, and 'that nothing should be done with haste or quickly, every movement needs its time and move with a slow and steady pace helps to maintain control and stay calm. The body movements are completely unnatural, affected by breathing, exacerbated by the current and braked by the friction of water, it is not just to swim, but you must find the right line with a long list of elements to move around with ease .
course, this is consistent with exercise and with the experience and the first time and 'difficult, I think, for everybody.
I did the first dive, more 'than two weeks ago, along with Toni and Luke. It was so long that I wanted to have an experience like that and when he draws a proposed I did not pray. Whenever I was snorkeling and admiring the sea floor, I was dying to be able to get off and go into that mysterious and wonderful world and that 'the sea. Yes, and 'another world there under: color, light, sound, size, distance, atmosphere, animals, corals, plants, everything is' different, everything is' new and fascinating.
After a few minutes, just to be able to account for where I was, what I was doing and find the right floatable 'under water, we made a series of basic exercises in order to continue the immersion test.
If completed, with a little 'salt water in the stomach and into the nose, a bit' confused and a bit 'dazed, I began to follow Tonio who swam slowly past me, followed and supervised, in my turn to Luke who proceeded to my shoulders and, finally, to enjoy the fun. Tonio flush out the races completely camouflaged on the sandy bottom and very gently, touched them to make moves and I could see them swimming.
I've seen lobsters hidden among the rocks, moraines with their menacing expression, strange and colorful shellfish similar to artifacts of an expert craftsman, specimens of fish unknown to me and the great and majestic sea eagles swim a few meters above my head . L 'dive lasted 50 minutes with depth' of up to 12 meters. We left
water walking on the beach, as we had entered. The suit soaked with water, the jacket and the cylinder seemed to weigh 100kg and I could hardly walk with my feet sank into the sand, but 'I was very happy and excited about the final result of my first dive, and at that moment I decided that was not the last.
So, 'Two weeks' later, this Monday', I started diving course.
Tonio had given me a book of theory that I should study, a plastic table that I had to learn to use and a set of sheets to be completed for the certification of my course.
The book 'consists of 250 pages, enriched numerous illustrations and is divided into five chapters at the end of which there is' a test consisting of multiple choice questions and open answers. The topics and many things to remember are; The book, however ', is structured to repeat more' times the main concepts and require the student to read them constantly, making it easier to store. I worked hard in the studio, and I was sloppy in the end all of a few small test questions at the end of paragraphs.
The first day of the course included a series of 20 exercises to be conducted in confined waters. Cosi ', at 9.00 o'clock in the morning we found the beach in Santa Cruz, the country just 3 miles from Huatulco, where every day, the huge cruise ships dock from tutt'America. Tonio It took an hour just to explain the whole series of exercises that we had to play and teach the preparation of the so 'called "equipo de buceo", ie all the elements necessary to start the dive. Most of the exercises simulating an emergency situation by teaching breathing techniques or, for example, how to completely remove the mask in depth 'and rimettersela emptying the water.
and I 'happened to drink more' than one occasion and, other than water, and I 'entry into the nose. At some point I must admit that I also felt a bit 'of fear caused by the sense of helplessness that one feels in being aware that you can not 'leave an unpleasant situation in a few seconds, being at a depth of 7m,' but you and 'forced to stay calm and resist without losing control.
At 12:45, expiring this tutorial, I was really tired and I started to wonder if I could hold three days so 'intense. Luke gave me compliments and told me that, normally, what we did in 2 hours, takes 2 sessions of 2 hours each on different days and the worst, now, it was past the next few days would be been more 'relaxing and fun. So 'and' state.
Tuesday 'and Wednesday', we rented a small boat and went out to sea. After the dive on Tuesday, 'where I had already done the exercises with greater ease and safety, fun and really beginning to appreciate the underwater life, we went to the home of Born, the chief instructor. The villa 'very large and welcoming. The predominant color and 'white and up the stairs of the entrance, you arrive in the spacious dining room and kitchen, built in the open air in the shape of a small amphitheater and covered by a large thatched hut-shaped. While Luke washed with fresh water all the materials used and refilled the bottles in the garage on the ground floor, me and Tonio we sat at a table in the wood of the room, near the large pool from which you can 'see the sea in the distance. After a review of the last two chapters of the book and some practice tests, I decided to take the final exam and take away the pain. I have successfully passed, making only five errors on 50 multiple choice questions; Tonio shook my hand, and you 'complimented and signed all the papers that my promotion examination of state theory.
The next day we took off on board the motor boat and we did two dives with a break of 1 hour between one and another. I learned from a specific point, about fifty yards and go back out of the water without using a compass, to completely get rid of the crew and to call in depth 'and some other techniques to improve the floatable 'regulating breathing. At the end of all the exercises, to 8 m below sea level, Tonio shook my hand for a second time, he gave me the OK sign and so 'said my promotion to the course "OPEN WATER DIVER" certified by the most 'largest association of divers in the world, called PADI. Now I can, then dive anywhere in the world, under the supervision of an expert, not necessarily instructor, up to a depth 'of 18m. In reality, 'if I had the money and time, do not wait to do the next course "Advanced Open Water Diver" nell'appreddimento which consists of 5 different types of diving and issue a patent that allows to dive up to 40m, depth 'maximum allowed for the sub-recreation. I'm sure I'll do 'in a not too distant future, but' from another part of Central America, during my trip in a few days, will resume 'run its course.
finished the examination and successfully completed all the exercises, I began to follow Tonio and swim toward a canyon formed by the meeting of two large rocks at least 8m high. As I tried to remain at the heart of the cliffs, rocked by currents, the water suddenly became dark and the light `start` to decline slowly. I did not understand what was happening until Tonio is turned towards me and beckoned me to look up. Now I thought that a large boat was passing over us, but then, as that great dark spot was approaching, I saw it was a school of sardines. They were really a lot and swimming all close together as drawn by an unknown force.
The sport fascinates me and just the thought of being able to dive in places like the Caribbean Sea, where the visibility of 'Diving and' far superior to that of the Pacific Ocean, it increases my enthusiasm to continue this activity 'sports so 'unique and fascinating. I am sure that every dive is always different from all others and it's really impossible to be bored to 20m below the surface.
The feeling you get, the first time that you can breathe underwater, you can not 'forget. The fear is combined with the excitement, the wonder of succeeding, with anxiety that at any moment does not come more 'air from the strange object which is held between his teeth. The air enters the lungs and 'cold and dry like the one that reigns in the early morning on a snowy mountain.

At the end of all the exercises, to 8 m below sea level, Tonio shook my hand for a second time, he gave me the OK sign and so 'said my promotion to the course "OPEN WATER DIVER" certified by the most 'largest association of divers in the world, called PADI. Now I can, then dive anywhere in the world, under the supervision of an expert, not necessarily instructor, up to a depth 'of 18m. In reality, 'if I had the money and time, do not wait to do the next course "Advanced Open Water Diver" nell'appreddimento which consists of 5 different types of diving and issue a patent that allows to dive up to 40m, depth 'maximum allowed for the sub-recreation. I'm sure I'll do 'in a not too distant future, but' from another part of Central America, during my trip in a few days, will resume 'run its course.
finished the examination and successfully completed all the exercises, I began to follow Tonio and swim toward a canyon formed by the meeting of two large rocks at least 8m high. As I tried to remain at the heart of the cliffs, rocked by currents, the water suddenly became dark and the light `start` to decline slowly. I did not understand what was happening until Tonio is turned towards me and beckoned me to look up. Now I thought that a large boat was passing over us, but then, as that great dark spot was approaching, I saw it was a school of sardines. They were really a lot and swimming all close together as drawn by an unknown force.
The sport fascinates me and just the thought of being able to dive in places like the Caribbean Sea, where the visibility of 'Diving and' far superior to that of the Pacific Ocean, it increases my enthusiasm to continue this activity 'sports so 'unique and fascinating. I am sure that every dive is always different from all others and it's really impossible to be bored to 20m below the surface.

Brent Everett And Brent Corrigan School Crush
Huatulco, Mexico Huatulco, Mexico Huatulco-Mexico
In the darkness of these four walls, lying on the fragile wooden bed, with his hands clasped behind his head, I try to relax your mind and free it from a thousand thoughts. The fan blades attached to the center of the ceiling, turning, produce a psychedelic effect of shadows, cutting the weak light of the lamp through the windows closed.
I could only look, but instead they are not. I'm with you, my faithful and inseparable friend of the heart.
She gives me strength, give me courage, I shall address its energy. Comforts me and takes care of me stroking my face and speak sweetly, or pounding me in the head but without hurting me. Sometimes it makes me shudder, but never scare me. I never get tired of listening to and when I'm with her memories resurface now that I thought were sunk in the quicksand of my mind.
Can I review a smile, be affected by a scent in the air to expand, I can relive those moments, traveling back in time.
you can make me laugh, make me heart beat, engulfs me like a wave of the sea. It makes me think, makes me think, makes me understand. Manages to move my body in freedom ', I'm flapping wings, fly me, makes me dance. E 'ability to make me cry or rejoice like a child. It speaks in all languages \u200b\u200bof the world, but you always understand. Do not ask for anything in return, only to be heard. I ask questions, makes me think, then, and 'she gave me all the answers. I love her, love her with all my heart and I could not live without her, without the music.

THE CENTRE OF THE RIVER (Pierangelo Bertoli)
Figure
paper drinking
new thoughts and fragile myths created from the world of yesterday
disperse young people escape from the forces leaving tomorrow
distorted minds and empty hands. Consumption
life wasting your valuable time
recongeal mind in a room and restful
spend hours studying the views already put
on electronic screens, or to false magazines
And keep your ears plugged to the calls sound
and this is a gray powder that falls on the eyes of the young man.
Determined to escape your time blowing bubbles and
not able to take the step in a world that runs
COURAGE is just a strange word far
you seek refuge in a piece of cannabis.
The sex you get with easy and simple gesture
is still new and still just a pretext
and hide their heads in the sunlight
sex you've discovered, however, have covered the love.
And keep your ears plugged to the calls sound
and this is a gray powder that falls on the eyes of the young man.
Do you belong to a flock that lives ignoring tomorrow and run
from side to side at a sign of the dogs
the myth of a wolf never seen you fried your brain
and run even if the pack takes you to the slaughterhouse.
And sleep in the middle of the river that runs to the goal
and nothing can disturb your sleep silk
someone shouting to open your eyes misty
but you would rather drown in boring days.
not feel that they are calling with a voice of thunder
And this is a gray powder that falls on the eyes of the young man.
