Sunshine



 
A bright ray of sunshine
Glowing in the firmament
Capturing the moment
 
Sparkling in my heart
Transpiring warmth… energy
Beauty –love.
 
Glistens thru my eyes
Defining my days
In so many happy ways
 
Even when I am overseas
My sunshine is with me!

Book Launch: Love Letters Venus Eternal Kronos by Jade da Rocha





 Book review by Vivi Rocha

The Brazilian writer Jade da Rocha in February launched the book "Love Letters Venus Eternal Kronos" in the English language by the publisher Outskirts Press and cultural support of the World in Style Magazine from the Group Uncle Sam read WWW.TIOSAM.COM which she signs the column PLU$ Social Media and is a international correspondent of the media mentioned above...
The book consists of 50 ethereal poems that unifies the dream of two lovers who embark on a virtual world of fantasies related to a world of gods where you drink the holy grail of the source of living water that is love. A journey through the galaxies where a point connecting the other side of the spectrum creating a deep spiritual connection.
And each poem leads to a passage of poetry and pure love, almost platonic.
A love without beginning and without end; eternal.
The writer Jade da Rocha said "Throughout my life and at every opportunity, I express and believe that through love we can create a perfect world: " Let love iluminate the passage, break the mold and create a perfect world." in one of her quotes on twitter.
She continues: And so, I wonder, how is it possible to love a person you don't know without restrictions knowing the risk of danger of the outcome!? And with this concept of the unknown opens its doors for the the universe to guide this feeling that I can not explain, places they traveled without ever having gone. During this period, I have achieved something that a few in real world only dream, universal love.
I believe that every time the heart opens and let the love come in, we can change the world bringing light to the heart and life to the eternal soul ... Eternal experience!
After the book published what happens?
Jade da Rocha responds with a laugh: "The dream continues, only that you're not in it."
She wrote on her blog: http://www.jadedarocha.com/
Today for me, is a day of gratitude! Great gratitude to God for having placed me in a world surrounded by my family,
good friends, good colleagues, eternal love. My childrem Patrick and Rebecca, my pearls, my angels.

O Nascimento da Capoeira by Jade da Rocha






Miami - São inúmeras as narrações e pontos de vista baseados na história da capoeira; mesmo rodeada de documentos, é mesmo assim uma lenda cuja origem é difícil de comprovar com exatidão, e é esta especulação cheia de mistérios que faz com que a capoeira seja uma arte diferente de todas as outras artes marciais.

A história da capoeira começa a partir do descobrimento do Brasil, quando os portugueses começaram a trazer escravos da África, durante o século XVI, para trabalharem em plantações de algodão e de cana-de-açúcar, substituindo os índios brasileiros, indomáveis, que fugiam do trabalho para a floresta.

Os africanos da Äfrica ocidental foram forçados a deixar sua terra nativa para serem explorados e castigados no novo mundo, trazendo consigo a religião e a cultura, vivendo em locais chamados "senzalas". Com o passar do tempo, devido à necessidade, uniram-se e começaram a criar uma forma de defesa pessoal, uma forma de luta a qual chamaram de "capoeira", sendo que para praticá-la, faziam rodas festivas para enganarem os senhores de engenho, dançando e e cantando como se estivessem celebrando. Assim nasceu a capoeira, segundo a lenda mais conhecida, originada no século XVII.
