Sky


Sky ! That blue thing that we can see when we look up but just If we don’t have something blocking the way.

This was the next topic that my dear friend Bernardo gave to me ‘So, as you like to take sky pics SO much, write about it!’

Well, what is sky?

Just an optical ilusion?

For some people is something divine that we go when we die, like a hope of life before death, for another’s is just a natural element that changes all day, many times ignored by everyone…

Most people just give any kind of importance to this magnificent element when they wake up and look at their window just to see If they might need an umbrella or not, going through all day with their mind in their stressful lifes and always too busy to look up and see the beauty above!

I usually look to the sky at least 3 times a day, when I wake up, sometimes at the middle of the day ‘cause I have some kind of necessity to look up and knowing that I’m really insignificant in this world! Seeing how the world is so BIG and I’m so tiny… and at sunset of course, when the sky is at his best! I think that every time that the sun sets it leaves ‘saudades’… (that is a Portuguese word that does not have translation! But it means that we will miss him, that feeling is called ‘saudade’ in portuguese) But then it comes the night and with her all the tiny stars and of course the moon… and that is the moment when I totally feel overwhelmed! Because that’s when I look to the sky and think that not only the world is enormous and I’m tiny! But the world is REALLY tiny and the universe huge!

Sometimes we are so occupied with our own lifes that we don’t have enough time to just look at the sky!

I advice you that every time that you have any kind of problems or is just pissed off, look at the sky and have a deep breath! :D

It makes wonders!

And appreciate what nature haves of best!

Hi!


Well, what can I say?

My name is Maria, I’m 18 and last week I was talking with a friend of my and told him that I wanted to write something and what did he said to me?! ‘Maria, why don’t you create a blog?’ I never really liked blogs… I have an opinion about them maybe a little stupid or something but I think that when we write something we are showing a little bit of ourselves, even if it is just a little bit of our personality and I don’t like that idea! Because I don’t like to be exposed at all… so I never thought this was a good idea. But my friend told me to do this and I accepted! But with a condition! Just if he gives me some topics so I can talk about them! He accepted and here I am! Ready to write something!
I’m not going to talk about my day life… I’m just going to give my opinion about some things!
Now, why the name of this blog? I have an account in deviantart
www.thespiritcarrieson.deviantart.com and I thought keep the same name, but there was already this name so I made something similar (the spirit carries on and on and on) I have another blog one in Portuguese my language (that is the spirit carries on and on) so this one had to be on and on and on but this is the name of a such beautiful music from Dream Theatre! The lyric of this music is amazing and it is going to be an issue for another post, so just wait!
I made this blog in English because I have a friend that is from the states and I thought why not make another one in English?! Maybe it’s going to be fun and It’s going to be a good way to practice my English!
If I have any mistake please just let me know!

Another thing, all the pics that I’m going to put here are all mine I was the one who took them so if you want to copy or use them please just ask me first! I really hate if people use it and don’t ask or claim it as them, that’s so stupid…

If you haven’t saw my account in deviantart and want to take a look please go! I appreciate!

The another blog that I have in Portuguese will have the same things that this one have… but also will have some specific posts that in English doesn’t have any sense… this is my plan so enjoy!

I know that maybe this blog is going to have many watchers but… thanks to the ones that are going to see it :D
