Beauty itself is but the sensible image of the Infinite.


A child is a beam of sunlight from the Infinite and Eternal, with possibilities of virtue and vice- but as yet unstained.

The Open Road Song


Usually I sleep it over... let it slide, and I’m pretty sure this time won’t be different. Thats why I must keep a public record to remind myself of what I quickly decide to forget. I truly consider immature to even consider over thinking this matters, however, regardless of well intended considerations, in the road of life everything counts, and this must be no exception. The questions in my head are growing tiresome, since answers are already in place. This has nothing to do with anyone but myself, because I am no victim... this just how the world is and I live in it. Sadly I still believe in that win-win, 50-50 crap. What can I say...? I'm old fashion valued. If I plan to survive in the oncoming post-illustration environment, I have to adapt myselfe to the current status-quot: alliances, partnerships, team work, associations, agreements, shared duties, common goals... man! I really want to be sarcastic... I really want to speak my mind... but I really don't have to. I'll forget about it in the morning anyways!

So, what have we learned so far? Next time, when you start to see the signs on the road way ahead of you, don't keep driving just to see what happens... I'm sure there will be plenty of exits that will lead to better places. Take the nearest one, lower the windows and keep singing you'r Open Road Song. Remember: you were born for this. Besides, this is how the world works... right? This is how things WERE meant to be... am I not correct? And if this isn't true, how come things turned out to be this way? Cause unfortunately when it comes to glory, it's every man for himself! I'll do what I can to finish, but afterwards, I must promise myself to be a little less of that thing and a little bit more of that other thing (just enough to keep things going). I lack the desire for the pursuit of glory... and it can't get any better than this. This is an open road song!

Andrea... I'm sorry!

Se que no era mi derecho decírtelo así y me disculpo si es que hice mal, pero no puedo disculparme por lo que dije si es que pienso es la verdad. Yo no existo, nunca lo he hecho... solo en momentos como estos en los que me atrevo a ser uno mas de los que ves sin voz, sin voto... pero con una conciencia que no se atreve a callar lo que le da sentido a lo inexplicable. Cualquier cosa que tu decidas... lo entenderé.

The Linkage Report.


I don’t recall the last times I posted something decent, but today was an unusual day on these unusual times. Too many things are happening... too fast. On the light of the last series of events, I must make a mention of how much I'm starting to appreciate change... "these new changing wave" for that matter.

Stress have made its way through most of my waken days, even threatening my sleep as well. Amor de la vida...? Patrañas! Eso es pa' los que no saben! Oh, sorry... My wires got crossed! Anyways... these couple of days have been quite hard; personally, professionally, academically... I’ve even began to draw like I use to do in my medieval times, and for those who really know my inner main frame, know exactly what that means. So yes… it's getting that bad. Many doors are closing in on me, but many others are opening as well, at least the most important once (Time for me to go wireless again), and it doesn’t get any better than this, but anyways, I think I’m getting ahead of my self. That would be a topic for another blog.

Tonight ended with a moment worth remembering. A good Mexican meal beside the park with my good friend Sick Boy… the sneaky one, remember? We had a chat that in my bare opinion, if it made public, it could have well redefine many of the social and diplomatic aspects of the human existence, not to mention the fact that one of my many theories (qualified as conspiracies by many) have been proved in the very extend of its existence… well, most of it. What fascinates me the most of all of this, is the way that I constantly perceive how the theory of evolution doesn’t only applies to animals or plants… but also to what I like to call: The Intrapersonal Interaction Agenda. Which is nothing more but the way we live and interact with others. I don’t usually talk about these things, because not only most people are everything but interested about this kind of topics, but they can also turn out to be quite complex or abstract for most of the people (at least my age). Nevertheless, this is my blog and now that I think of it, I can write whatever I want! Yeah, I think I need a little arrogance now and then to keep things moving.

Everything was good, well, almost. Interesting thing for these interesting times… prohibido el paso: change it’s in the wind. I just wish I had an umbrella. Why did I have to hear those things…? Why couldn’t I just skip the day? Stupid Chicken… I will never listen to you again. Because if A is to B, and B is to C, then… I don’t want to know! It is just to damn logical. Sadly, I don’t need to be right about A and C. Sometimes you don’t need the whole process to know the outcome as long as you know the facts. That's why some people preffer to dream.

I consider that we, as men, are by far, less complex that women, and therefore, way too much predictable. This is because our motivations and needs usually spin around in something as redundant as the ego. And I dare to call it redundant because it is something that slowly becomes essential in many of our personal areas, especially in intrapersonal relations. Women are… tricky! A fascinating walking mystery. I thing the whole illustration process can take up to thousands of pages and still get no where near a concrete conclusion, but I do get a general Idea of the whole thing: from the early days when the new feelings are discovered (clinging to the hope of those who make them come to life regardless of status, size or appearance), going through the attraction of the once with higher impressiveness (usually admired and/or wanted by most, if not all of the general female population due to looks, performance, popularity, etc) and then, when things get serious enough, it comes the good all comfort (options). This is with a little help from Mother Nature of course (in most of these type of cases). Fortunately, not all women pass through this exact schematic, in fact, most of then don’t even fit this pattern, in fact, let us be realistic: NO WOMEN ON EARTH FOLLOWS THIS PATTERN... EVER! It is all part of my poor and ambiguous imagination… conspiracy theories if you like. But seriously, not everybody does, I’m fortunate to know many of them… and I am so thankful for it.

I don’t even know why I’m writing all of this… creo que mi vida se enredo con los cables del Nintendo! I guess I’ve not been getting enough sleep. I should go to bed now before I write something someone could consider offensive… wait, I take that back. Nobody can feel offended unless the boot fits right? Well, that is a relieve… good conscious relieve.

I refuse to be acceptable! Never underestimate the power of small choices… they can really ruin your day, your life, your reputation... even your toilet! In conclusion, there is hope enough to make me want to live another day...

La aplicacion de la retorica en la inmagen es que la retorica puede servir como un metodo de creacion. Esto facilita el proceso creativo para el diseñador, ya que les ayuda a tomar plena conciencia de un proceso que usualmente se utiliza de manera intuitiva. La idea es la de potenciar al mensaje, haciendo que el receptor reaccione ante el blah blahblah… creo que necesito dormir. Ya podemos irnos...? Esta gente es muy mentecata!

Stop being so stupid.. it's my turn! Buenas noches.

Where is my sunshine?


I was lying on the grass on Sunday morning of last week indulging in my self defeats. My mind was thugged, all laced and bugged, all twisted round and beat, uncomfortable three feet deep. Now the fuzzy stare from not being there on a confusing morning week impaired my tribal lunar-speak, and of course you can't become if you only say what you would have done, so i missed a million miles of fun.

What a best way to describe my previous week, just when you think things are starting to pick up, everything goes right down the drain… again. The whole set of unfortunate events started last Friday... and I don’t even remember how. Now that I think of it, I don’t remember much, only flashbacks of the most notorious incidents: my grandma broke her arm while no one was around, I had my first official car crash, I was charged a 67dll fine by Wells Fargo bank (the worst bank in the world!), one of the car tires got flat, I burned the handbrakes, I knocked down a water container in a near school carwash, I missed a 5:30 appointment to turn in some invoices(so my dad will get a 2,000dll payment delayed for about 2 week), I didn’t sleep an entire night for a homework I didn’t even turned is, I forgot to return a book to the library and got a huge fine for a 3 week delay, uncomfortable family, melodramatic friends... and those are only the things I can talk about! Never mind about the Space Shuttle Size McSecret!

I can’t wait to see what else goes wrong before the end of the week… I just want to move on already. Does anybody have gravy for the brain?

"Feeling Fine"


And for a moment, jut for a brief moment, the pain went away... and I was happy.

Definitely this week has been not my week, but it’s raining outside. I usually don’t like the idea of water falling from the sky, not in this town for that matter. It makes me feel like I'm in a Tim Burton's film, where everything is dark and creepy... quite depressing really. But today is different, I don’t know, it might be the astounding amount of medication I've been taking lately... but today It doesn't feel that way.

Right now I love everything I see, everything I hear... I love the smell of this fresh coffee (which I’m not ¨allowed¨ to drink), the grey light across the sunken window, my Renton Style PJ's, my imperial chair, warm socks that don’t match, the lighted horse-shaped candle (that I made myself along time ago for a friend who I totaly forgot to give it to her) and of course, soothing music that would suite the ocation: Starting out with a little Blue Foundation, going through some Sigur Ros, Jim Brickman and of course, ending with some good old Nick Drake which is perfect for these not so bright days.

It would not be fair for me to complain about anything at this moment, not even about life, about death, about sickness... about pain. For me pain is just another word... an empty though that leads to nowhere. Yes... this is my life right now, sick but peaceful... hurting but quite... quite ironic isn’t it?

This affliction has taken almost a week of my life... that’s why I don’t want to go to bed right now (like I’m spouse to) ´cause right now, I might as well take back a little of what I’ve lost, at least in my own way, regardless of tomorrow or the next day. I wanted to write about this because these moments don’t usually last long... I’m just about the next three seconds away from that, I’m not afraid of pain, got used to that... but I still can’t figure out why I’m terrified by needles. I got to go now, she’s comino… again!

Adaptation Aftermath

"If Survival's the name, i'm ahead of the game."
Mientras mas pasa el tiempo, es menos incierto mi sentir para con mis tiempos que ya no son. Creo que poco a poco he aprendido a reconciliarme con mi pasado, o por lo menos tengo la idea de ello. Recuerdo y no recuerdo, y en todo esto nada tenia porque ser como fue, ahora entiendo que todo aquí no es mas que una prueba. Estuve, quise, sentí, odie, me fui, morí, renací, perdone... y no pienso volver sino hasta que con la misma vara que un día medí, pueda yo también ser medido. Puedo abogar por todo, menos por lo que nunca fue mi decisión. La ultima vez declare haber adolecido de alternativas, pero ahora que mi pensar se ha vuelto un poco mas claro me doy cuenta que nunca carecí de ellas desde un principio. ¿Porque entonces esta ruta y no alguna otra? Simple, porque fue lo que más me convenía a mí y no a alguien mas... algo que bien es sabido, tenía años sin hacer. Todos tenemos un camino de aprendizaje propio y simplemente opte por seguir el mío. Independientemente de lo que se me quieran hacer creer, esto me queda totalmente fuera de cualquier insinuación de egoísmo, venganza, rencor o algo parecido. Esto no es más que el ciclo continuo de causalidad y el cambio, leyes naturales de lo que nada se escapa. Nada que ver con un intento emocional de cobrar deudas viejas, pues no hay nada ya de que tratar, y aún así debo admitir que cada día que pasa las excusas me son mas escasas, y según mi libre albedrío realmente no me son tan necesarias. Doy crédito a que mi actitud es distinta, pero no como producto de una mala decisión, sino de mero instinto. No es de hace mucho que me doy cuenta que, como todos los demás, también llevo la sobre vivencia en la sangre, y para sobrevivir es impredecible aprender a adaptarse. Lo dijo Darwin y lo creo yo: en este mundo, como ley natural, solo los mas aptos sobreviven... no los mas inteligentes, los mas grandes, los mas fuertes, ni mucho menos los mas bonitos. Excusas puedo dar muchas, que para eso he sido dotado de buena invención, pero a pesar de no disfrutar mucho de lo que veo, he optado por verlo todo, sin idealismos ni prejuicios... y debo confesar, no me hace esto sentir mejor... pero tampoco me es de efecto. Quizás no es lo que quería, pero la vida no se trata siempre de lo que uno quiere... y creo que soy comprendido en esto que digo.

Crean o no, esto que escribo es una disculpa... otros pueden correr con mas suerte, les deseo lo mejor.

Wellcome to my Mind!

So I made the test, and this is what I turned out to be... a man of many-few number. I wish some things were different, but they're not. If you’re planning to judge me, why don’t you make the test first? See what your mind is made of... you might be surprised! Please keep your hands inside the vehicle at all times, no flashing pictures, questions are alowed only after the end of the tour and most importantly, please do not feed the animals. Thank you... enjoy!

Conspiracy Theory # 24-B

No me habia dado cuenta sino hasta hoy en plena exposicion de diseño. Si son curiosos y ponen atencion, veran que el logo de Volks Wagen no es mas que un hombre de cabeza, sin cabeza y adentro de una cabeza... that is some realy satanic shit! No me importa que me digan que estoy loco o que me quieran convencer que no es cierto... yo se lo que veo!


Mira nomas, y pensaron que me engañarian a mi!

The Crap that Moves the World.


What do you think about love?
That some times it could turn in to a weapon of mass deception, but on the other hand, I think it is the purpose of life itself, not only in a romantic kind of way. I somehow believe that romantic feelings were meant for both for the continuing of the human species and to create an atmosphere of stability in the interdependent society that's been formed around it.

Have you ever been in love?
Disregarding what I’d like to believe, I might as well have been. But what does "been in love" means anyways?

Are you currently in love?
Hold on let me check... mmm... nope, not yet! But I've been listening to a lot of Magnolia y los No Me Olvides lately; I'm kind of starting to like it... does that count?

Would you like to be in love?
If that means loosing my head, I’d probably like to see that happen.

Any words of wisdom you might consider appropriate for this topic?
Well, actually I don't, but if love is the answer, could you rephrase the question?

I'm gonna miss you though.

They helped me down every night
I didn't have much to say
I didn't get above the light
I closed my eyes and closed myself
And closed my world and never opened
Up to anything
That could get me along

I had to close down everything
I had to close down my mind
Too many things to cover me
Too much can make me blind
I've seen so much in so many places
So many heartaches, so many faces
So many dirty things
You couldn't believe

I would stand in line for this
It's always good in life for this"

I don't want to fight the tide

I don't want to swim the ocean

When it's cold I'd like to die”

-When it's cold I'd like to die-


10. ¿Cómo es tu vida?
“Heaven
A gateway to hope
Just like a feeling
I need, it's no joke

Each way I turn
I know I'll always try
To break the circle
That has been placed round me

Tonight I think I walk alone
to find my soul desire to go home”

-Temptation-


11. ¿Qué pedirías si tuvieras un solo deseo?
With water surrounding me
I am wide open
Reaching forever
And I fly into the blue
Into the blue
I am wide open

-Into the blue-

“Tell me no truth
If it hurts bad
There's enough in my life
To make me so sad”

-Dream about me-

“this is just a melody, beautiful one but no words
...bye”
-Old-

Metal Alamo

Hello, my name is Ragno and I feel like crap! That my friend, is called closure!

New year, old crap!

Creo que estos últimos acontecimientos me han dotado de bastante material como para escribir por semanas enteras, pero no soy de aquellos que tienden a hacer caso incuestionable al impulso. Veo como al empezar el año a la gente le da por hacer recuentos de sus vidas y de ponerse a plantear los clásicos propósitos de año nuevo: que si este año hago esto, que si este año hago lo otro, y luego... nada! Han pasado ya 17 días desde que comenzó el año, y a mi sin mas!

He sentido en todo este tiempo la urgencia de sentarme a escribir, pero para escribir se requiere pensar, y pensar es algo que deje de hacer desde hace un tiempo ya que siempre fui un hombre que siempre se ha jactado de muchas cosas. Procurare no hacerlo esta vez, hacerlo sin decirlo, ni decirlo sin saberlo. Hoy no quiero hablar de lo que ha pasado desde mi ultimo post, porque eso me obligaría a regresarlo a la memoria, y a decir verdad creo que (para mi salud mental) eso me produce flojera. Solo digamos que los tiempos cambian, y siguen cambiando... pues que así sea!

No tengo historia interesante ni propósito para este nuevo año, ninguno mas que este: Quiero volver a ver! No pido que todos mis sueños se hagan realidad, ni siquiera que este sea un buen año para mi, lo único que pido es poder regresar... quiero volver a apreciar lo mucho que tengo y dejarme de lamentar por lo poco que me falta para supuestamente ser feliz. No quiero pensar igual, no quiero sentir lo mismo. No soy cobarde, tal vez sea que nunca realmente he sido puesto a prueba.

Pensándolo bien, también procurare escribir mas seguido…
