Neruda, Neruda always ...

The 35 anniversary of the death of poet Pablo Neruda went virtually unnoticed yesterday in Chile where only the foundation that bears his name, the Communist Party and a columnist was reminded. The poet (1904-1973), winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1971, died on September 23, 1973, twelve days after the Pinochet coup.

He or she who does not travel, who does not read
,
who does not listen to music,
who does not laugh at yourself.


Dies slowly he who destroys his self love,
who did not even try.


Dies slowly he who transforms himself in slave of habit
repeating every day the same itineraries, who does not change
brand
dare not change the color of their clothing
or not talk to who do not know.


Dies slowly he who avoids a passion and emotions swirling, they just
returning
brightness to the eyes and restore the brokenhearted.


dies slowly who does not turn the steering wheel
is unhappy with his work or his love,
who does not risk certainty or uncertainty, to thus follow a dream
who is not allowed, not even once in their life,
away from sensible advice ...

lives today! Hazards
today!
Do it today!
Do not be dying slowly!
not prevent you from being happy!



Text Pablo Neruda

Salut!
