Hace tiempo, cuando era niño, recuerdo que me comunicaba on the phone every so often with my family who lived outside the territory of BCS. At that time, I remember my grandmother spoke to Carmela, who lived in Guadalajara, and on rare occasions my mother's family in a town called Las Palmas, also in the state of Jalisco.
Another thing to back then, as a child, was to send mail. That over time became a habit, and later, with a few years of practice, not only sent him emails to my family, but also my friends. With the advent of e-mail, sending e-mails I remove a touch of warmth to write
- see " The forgotten art of writing letters ."
Later, when I went on my way to Sonora state to begin my professional studies, started for the first time a frequent call to my house. I was never very attached to telephone calls, initially calling my home share was 4 or 5 per month. I should have scored more often, but I was in my space nature calls. Perhaps because each call was a martial overview of my activities in college, or a warning.
I do not know. But I've always called my house shortly.
When they left cell phones, I think I was the last to accept the use of these devices. From the beginning REPAT me in the ass, having to be accessible to everyone at any time.
Honestly, even if you appreciate people sometimes just want to be not "publicly" and stay in complete privacy. However, it was time that I had to give and that was when I bought my first cell. This was following the death of my father, and I saw the need to be connected to my home so more frequently.
However, sometimes he lost, or left off for weeks. But hey, as long, longer than would be achieved avoid this, the end always end up using them to communicate back home.
When I was tired when I felt sad and defeated, when the spirits were on the floor, when I was beaten and battered by life's shit, when I was hungry and I had become a vague tough, when a failure 1.000 thousand times in business when I felt alone and without a future, when holding a little encouragement and affection, when I felt isolated and confused ...
... response, this vaccine was always a call.
knew that behind the headset would be always a person that was interested above all things. My mother, my father, my brothers, my grandparents, my uncles, my cousins, a friend, a friend, a girlfriend, someone who had a special affection, etc.
A word of encouragement, a smile, a cheerful tone, was all that needed to be loaded Steppenwolf stack. That was my life then, not asking much, I have never asked or needed much really, usually machine worked perfectly well without affection, or without displays of affection.
At the end of austerity, like a gun only takes one bullet to zero in on your goal, you only need one to continue their March is only a word.
In a way, maybe that's why the churches are an extension of the home when it is in need of guidance or understanding.
On several occasions I entered a church when I feel more alone. And what the hell! believe me it works or at least one ordered ideas.
Some people can cope with the loneliness, to a lesser or greater extent. I think in that sense I'm "standard", it worked quite well with humanity in the everyday, and it worked well in the range of social humanity.
Today we remember that, I woke up in the morning and my grandfather had left a Bible on the bedside. It was a "Bible of the Pilgrim", ie a pocket Bible with pasta leather and protected by a cover with zipper, being kept in a small rectangle of leather.
Have spent most of my life from school to school, the colony a colony, from city to city, I think I make a pilgrim. I become a stranger in my own family due to long periods of absence. In this subject again from time to time, after season one or two times a year to see themselves, one who knows his family in stages: from babies to children, young children, adolescents to young, of young adults. He who buries his followers and outsiders.
All that was why I was given a Bible, I also remembered a game that many years ago I got to "flip." It was a very chingon RPG, which I think did the PSA SOFT, back in the 90's that was called EarthBound
. In this game the main character (
Ness ) sometimes it was sad when they called his mother. Then Ness, had to call his mother in order to remove the status of "homesick."
you could also cure his ate something that reminded you of your home. I find it very curious that a RPG ( , 1994) to take a very human and reflected in code. I find it very funny, even today. What sucks right?
Following the talk, I think the emotional aspect is an element strongly developed and well managed in this video game. Throughout history, as you progress through the game, you develop friendships with various characters throughout the world.
Somehow, EarthBound was the precursor of the global village idea in my head.
Finally, I can say I've never played an RPG ( of that generation) with many interesting items. In my opinion I consider it a piece of art because of the care and detail that was done.
Thanks APE SOFT chingon did a super job, even 16 years later, play it occasionally for leisure and nostalgia more than anything.
is all I have to say. Even tough guys need to know that we have a person that loves us and that we matter to the other side of the line. For more motherfucker who one is, at bottom left of being human. One of the oldest and most basic needs is a sense of belonging and the need for affection.
comrades I bid you farewell, I send greetings and have great weekend!
