September 11, a dark day






When I think in September 11 at 1973 I feel sad about the history of my country. In my opinion, that day represent the end of a beatiful dream of a different society. Also I feel a lot of impotence because I can't do anything to change all that happened in this black period. Some people think like that is outdated , even resentful, I'm absolutely desagree with that opinion. Our laws, institutions and culture are embuid of the dictatorship period. The dictatorship in Chile, was not only  the end of the "Unidad popular", it was a counter revolution that destroyed the near past.

While the state of Chile doesn't make justice, is not only important remember that day, is our responsability, for all the people that was killed, rape, tortured only for think different. We can see how others countries deal with that. In Europe, for example, no one try to forget the holocaust, quite the opposite, they felt the obligation to remember this tragedy. That is a way to try never do this again. In Chile the victims are forgotten and the murders free or in a special jails, like Punta Peuco (before Penal Cordillera). All that I can say is: shame on us!

About the different ways to express discomfort in that day, I'm agree. I think is a right that it was deny since dictatorship period until today. Obviously, break traffic light doesn't help to change the world, but I understand all the angry that a lot of people feel because "the hapiness never came". The cause of the problem is that we still live in a society founded in the fear of those days, make up of democracy. The change should be political, there is no other way.

MeXico0o0o0o beatiful and loved (8)


Human being is so incredible that produce different cultures in a different places around the world. This is amazing and we have to take advantage of the multiculturalism of our species. So, when I tinhk in one place I would like to visit I can't  easily decide. But one of the places that I would like to return is México.

I went to Mexico when I was only 5 years old, with my family, to visit my godfather and godmother. I was a little child so I can't remember everything clearly, but I can't forget all those colors and all that spicy food! Everything in this country es beuatiful and unique, the culture is infinite and the people cheerful. Obviusly this is how we describe as a foraigner, because the drug traffick and the violence associate at that issue is inhumane.


In a few days my godfather will come to Chile, and I will (re)cognise him and ask if I can come back for this holidays! If this plan result I will love to go to Teotihuacan and climb again those pyramid, but now on my own :) That's my plan, wish me luck!
