WE WILL NEVER SAY BYE BYE



We will never say bye bye
I’ve never paid attention to the lyrics of this beautiful song Bye Bye by Mariah Carey. My other son showed it to me and I want to share with you. It talks to us. Some parts are below. When you have time listen to it!
“This is for my people who just lost somebody
Your best friend, your baby, your man, or your lady
Put your hand way up high
We will never say bye (no, no, no)
Mamas, daddies, sisters, brothers, friends and cousins
This is for my people who lost their grandmothers
Lift your head to the sky 'cause we will never say bye

As a child there were them times I didn't get it
But you kept me in line
I didn't know why you didn't show up sometimes on Sunday mornings
And I missed you, but I'm glad we talked through
All them grown folk things separation brings
You never let me know it
You never let it show because you loved me
And obviously there's so much more left to say
If you were with me today face to face

I never knew I could hurt like this
And everyday life goes on like
"I wish I could talk to you for a while"
Miss you but I try not to cry as time goes by
And soon as you reach a better place
Still I'd give the world to see your face
And I'm right here next to you
But it's like you're gone too soon
Now the hardest thing to do is say bye bye
Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye
Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye
Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye
Bye, bye

And you never got the chance to see how good I've done
And you never got to see me back at number one
I wish that you were here to celebrate together
I wish that we could spend the holidays together
I remember when you used to tuck me in at night
With the Teddy Bear you gave to me that I held so tight
I thought you were so strong
You'd make it through whatever
It's so hard to accept the fact you're gone forever

I never knew I could hurt like this
And everyday life goes on like
"I wish I could talk to you for a while"
Miss you but I try not to cry as time goes by
And soon as you reach a better place
Still I'd give the world to see your face
And I'm right here next to you
But it's like you're gone too soon
Now the hardest thing to do is say bye bye
Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye
Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye
Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye
Bye, bye

This is for my people who just lost somebody
Your best friend, your baby, your man, or your lady
Put your hand way up high
We will never say bye (no, no, no)
Mamas, daddies, sisters, brothers, friends and cousins
This is for my people who lost their grandmothers
Lift your head to the sky 'cause we will never say bye”

MINHA FÉ É FRACA!




O que aconteceu conosco nos fez inaugurar uma nova vida. Somos agora bem diferentes. Afinal, não é todo mundo que ao abrir os olhos quando acorda, sente cair uma avalanche de água.  Choro por dentro e por fora,  acordada ou dormindo.

Recentemente minha filha foi morar no Estado do Pará onde está cursando medicina. É curioso como não fiquei triste com a decisão dela ir morar longe. Isso porque tenho certeza de que ela está bem, morando com a avó e a tia e que está feliz por está se dedicando à carreira que queria.

Então, se eu tivesse fé o suficiente eu não ficaria triste com o meu filho Iel, pois saberia que ele  está bem, morando ao lado do Pai e Nossa Mãe Maria e feliz pois está em um lugar  maravilhoso!

Espero que essa água que insiste em sair dos meus olhos diariamente lave a raiva  que sinto e limpe toda tristeza mas, principalmente, que faça brilhar em mim a fé!

MY FAITH IS WEAK!



What happened to us made ​​us live a new life. We are now very different. After all, is not everyone that open the eyes when wake up, and feel  an avalanche of water dropping down. I cry inside and outside, awake or asleep.
 
Recently my daughter went to live in the state of Pará which is very far from where we live to study medicine. It is funny how I was not sad about her decision to go live far away. That's because I'm sure she's fine, living with her grandmother and aunt and she is glad to dedicate to the career he wanted.
So, if I had enough faith I would not be sad about my son Iel because he is well know, living alongside the Father and Our Mother Mary and happy because he living in a wonderful place!

I hope this water that  insists on going out of my eyes every day wash the anger I feel and wipe sorrow but mostly, make shine in me the faith!

OS OLHOS NÃO VÊEM MAS O CORAÇÃO SENTE




Há um ditado popular que diz:
“O que os olhos não vêem o coração não sente.” Mas que mentira!
O coração sente e sente muito porque o amor é eterno.
Como disse  Carlos Drummond de Andrade no poema O Amor Antigo:
“...aquilo que foi grande e deslumbrante,
... a cada dia surge mais amante.
...Mais triste? Não. Ele venceu a dor e resplandece...
tanto mais velho quanto mais amor.”
Às vezes me acalmo e aceito, em outros momentos me encho de raiva,
de mim e de Deus.
Preciso me perdoar e perdoar a Deus,
Sei que Ele não precisa do meu perdão mas eu preciso
que Ele me perdoe.
É que a ferida não sara: vai e volta.
Assim como a onda que em um infeliz dia levou você de mim.

Penso as vezes que foi a maneira tão súbita e arrebatadora!
Há quem diga que quando a despedida de alguém é por doença é mais fácil aceitar!
Pode ser! Mas acho que não existe despedida fácil!
O que é fácil e sempre será é o meu amor que em tudo me lembra você.
 
"Senhor, trata-me bem, por teu nome,
liberta-me, pela ternura do teu amor,
porque dentro de mim, o meu coração está ferido".
Salmo 109.

THE EYES CAN NOT SEE BUT THE HEART FEELS



There is a popular saying:
"What the eyes do not see the heart does not feel." What a lie!
The heart feels and feels a lot because love is eternal.
There is famous brazilian writer named Carlos Drummond de Andrade's that once wrote the poem The Old Love:
"... What was big and beautiful,
... each day comes more lover.
More ... sad? No. It overcame pain and shines ...
somewhat older the more love. "
Sometimes am OK and accept, other times anger fills me, anger for myself and for God!
I need to forgive myself and God,
I know that He does not need my forgiveness but I do need
May He forgive me.
Is that the wound do not heal and comes back and forth.
As the wave in the unfortunate day that took you from me.
I think sometimes it was so sudden and so overwhelming!
Some say that when someone has a disease is easier to accept!
Could be! But I think there is no easy farewell!
What is easy and will always be is my love and everything reminds me of you
"Lord, treats me well, by thy name,
Deliver me, by the tenderness of your love,
because within me, my heart is broken. "
Psalm 109.
