Tengo la inquietante sensación que este gobierno carece de planes. De hecho, creo recordar que el propio Presidente admitió alegremente que “no creía en los planes”. Y, la verdad sea dicho, se nota, y mucho. En lo económico, en lo educativo, en lo sanitario, en la política internacional, en la Seguir leyendo
Last Monday’s solar eclipse was a good chance to look up at the sky, and forget for a while all the mess we’re immersed in down here. We were able to recover and enjoy our sense of awe and wonder -as when we were kids-, so mesmerized and fascinated by Seguir leyendo
A year has gone by since he became President. I didn’t vote for him, but – anyway – I had higher expectations. I expected him to be more moderate, sensible, balanced, stable, willing to bridge the gap that has been separating us for decades now. Instead, he keeps turning a Seguir leyendo
Honestly, I’m not a football/soccer fan. Nevertheless, I can understand that millions of people all over the world are. I feel that it has stopped being a sport to become mere business. The amount of money many players get is really obscene, if we compare it to the salary of Seguir leyendo
Este año, más que nunca, cómo no rendirles homenaje ayer a los médicos en su día, cómo no agradecerles tanto esfuerzo, tanta vocación de servicio, tanta entrega, tanto compromiso, tanta dedicación.

I went to the chemist’s a couple of days ago. After I’d paid for the stuff I bought, the smiling cashier gave me a little present: a magnetic 2021 calendar for the fridge. I stared at it, incredulous, shocked, and turned as pale as a sheet. “Are you ok, Ma’am?”, Seguir leyendo
It’s a worldwide relief that Trump hasn’t been reelected as USA President. I know, he’s still in denial. He can’t admit his loss. So used to be a winner, such a show off, always boasting and blowing his own trumpet, how can he possibly come to terms with this defeat? Seguir leyendo
“Miramos el mundo una sola vez, en la infancia. El resto es memoria.” Sabias palabras de la flamante Premio Nobel de Literatura, Louise Glück. Según el informe del Observatorio de la Deuda Social de la Universidad Católica Argentina, hoy en nuestro país “hay más de 8 millones de niños con algún Seguir leyendo
I know. Don’t count your chickens before they are hatched. While I’m writing these lines (Nov 5th), we don’t know yet if Biden will be the next USA President. Partly because not all the votes have been counted, and partly because losing Donald is claiming fraud. He’s so pissed off, Seguir leyendo
