A história de "Faith" , um cão muito especial !
Foto e texto postados pela página do Facebook Amazing Facts
"Will Power is the Strongest Power"
" This photograph is one moment from the life of “Faith”, the two legged dog. This doggie was born with deformity and when it was seen that even its mother was abandoning and harassing the little creature, the Stringfellow family adopted the puppy from roadside. When Veterinarians advised to Euthanize the animal, the owner Jude took a bold decision to inspire the
dog to live a dignified life of its own by encouraging the dog to walk on two legs. Added to this attempt from the owner and her family, it is this little ones will power and survival instinct that has lead the animal to gain the respect of humans….!! "

Como a sabedoria chinesa vê os morcegos
Foto e texto postados pela página do Facebook Campbell Newman's Bat Shame
" Bat Superstitions
In many cultures bat are seen as lucky or a positive sign..
The bat totem can trigger change or transformation. Its visit can be a warning that change will soon occur and not to be afraid. Sometimes the bat is a symbol for facing ones fears.
* When a bat appears it means time to surrender to a change, transformation of the self is about to occur. Bats hold the power of adaptability.
**
Qing Dynasty (1644-1911) Emperor Qian Long built the Summer Palace in Beijing in honor of his mother's birthday. The Chinese words for "bat" and "good fortune" are homonyms, so the mountain at the Summer Palace is constructed in the shape of a bat. Peaches are a metaphor for longevity, so the lake is shaped like a peach. Together, the mountain and lake convey wishes for good fortune and longevity. "

Somos de fato poeira das estrelas, "stardust" !
Cartaz e texto postados pela página do Facebook From Quarks to Quasars
"“Every atom in your body came from a star that exploded. And, the atoms in your left hand probably came from a different star than your right hand. It really is the most poetic thing I know about physics: You are all stardust. You couldn’t be here if stars hadn’t exploded, because the elements - the carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, iron, all the things that matter for evolution and for life - weren’t created at the beginning of time. They were created in the nuclear furnaces of stars, and the only way for them to get into your body is if those stars were kind enough to explode. So, forget Jesus. The stars died so that you could be here today.”
- Lawrence Krauss "

A sensibilidade artística sincera não depende do prestígio social,pelo contrário : é na sua ausência que a verdade aparece !
Foto e texto postados pela página do Facebook Welcome to our World
" A man sat at a metro station in Washington DC and started to play the violin; it was a cold January morning. He played six Bach pieces for about 45 minutes. During that time, since it was rush hour, it was calculated that 1,100 people went through the station, most of them on their way to work.
Three minutes went by, and a middle aged man noticed there was musician playing. He slowed his pace, and stopped for a few seconds, and then hurried up to meet his schedule.
A minute later, the violinist received his first dollar tip: a woman threw the money in the till and without stopping, and continued to walk.
A few minutes later, someone leaned against the wall to listen to him, but the man looked at his watch and started to walk again. Clearly he was late for work.
The one who paid the most attention was a 3 year old boy. His mother tagged him along, hurried, but the kid stopped to look at the violinist. Finally, the mother pushed hard, and the child continued to walk, turning his head all the time. This action was repeated by several other children. All the parents, without exception, forced them to move on.
In the 45 minutes the musician played, only 6 people stopped and stayed for a while. About 20 gave him money, but continued to walk their normal pace. He collected $32. When he finished playing and silence took over, no one noticed it. No one applauded, nor was there any recognition.
No one knew this, but the violinist was Joshua Bell, one of the most talented musicians in the world. He had just played one of the most intricate pieces ever written, on a violin worth $3.5 million dollars.
Two days before his playing in the subway, Joshua Bell sold out at a theater in Boston where the seats averaged $100.
This is a real story. Joshua Bell playing incognito in the metro station was organized by the Washington Post as part of a social experiment about perception, taste, and priorities of people.
The outlines were: in a commonplace environment at an inappropriate hour: Do we perceive beauty? Do we stop to appreciate it? Do we recognize the talent in an unexpected context?
One of the possible conclusions from this experience could be: If we do not have a moment to stop and listen to one of the best musicians in the world playing the best music ever written, how many other things are we missing?- Jack "
