A pergunta que vagou em minha mente até chegar onde estou agora: Por que um blog? E a resposta poderá ser simples ou complexa dependendo da maneira que eu quiser lidar com ela. Estive boa parte da minha vida escrevendo em cadernos e agendas que hoje hibernam silenciosamente nas gavetas de meu guarda-roupa, e isso não chega exatamente a me incomodar, afinal, havia ali um propósito meramente de desabafo (de criar seja lá o que fosse e não me importava o que acontecesse depois). Mas, se a arte visa à beleza, sendo essa beleza alcançada, me parece um gesto de egoísmo guardá-la toda para si mesmo, e surgiu em mim o desejo de compartilhar dela com quem por ela se interessassem. Não querendo limitar este alcance às pessoas, nem mesmo a própria produção textual, resolvi criar um blog que fizesse uso tanto do português como do inglês. Alguns posts vão ser em inglês, outros em português, e outros serão traduzidos para as duas línguas. Com isso espero poder compartilhar com vocês da minha arte, que aprendi a amar e cultivar. Espero que vocês gostem dela assim como eu.
The question that floated in my head until I got to where I am now: Why blog? And the answer can be simple or complex depending on how I want to deal with it. I’ve spent most part of my life writing in notebooks and diaries which now hibernate silently in the drawers of my closet, and that really doesn’t get to the point of making me feel bothered, after all, the purpose was only of ejecting accumulated thoughts (to create anything and not care about what happened after words). Yet, if art poses the objective of beauty and that beauty is reached, it seems selfish to keep it all for myself, and I developed the will to share of it with who ever shows interest. Not wanting to limit its reach to people, nor the textual production itself, I decided to create a blog utilizing both English and Portuguese. Some posts will be in English, others will be in Portuguese, and others will be translated to both languages. In doing so, I wish to share with you my art, which I have learned to love and cultivate. Hope you enjoy it as much as I do.
