Ela Desaparece - She Disappears

Tudo Em Mim Desaparece Na Dança...
Com Amor,
Dja Putin

Descrente E Ainda Assim Feliz - Hopeless And Yet Happy

O Universo Na Cabeça Do Alfinete

-Lenine

Pequeno e ainda assim imenso
Calado e ainda assim intenso
Pesado e ainda assim flutua
Veneno e ainda assim me cura
Quando um sentimento fica assim fora de si
Coração perde a cabeça e o juízo voa
O universo na cabeça do alfinete
Tudo brilha diferente no olho da pessoa
Tudo brilha diferente no olho da pessoa
Parado e ainda assim ligeiro
Inteiro e ainda assim partido
Doído e ainda assim contente
Descrente e ainda assim feliz
Quando um sentimento fica assim fora de si
Coração perde a cabeça e o juízo voa
O universo na cabeça do alfinete
Tudo brilha diferente no olho da pessoa
Tudo brilha diferente no olho da pessoa

Válvula Do Que Escondemos

Tingido de cortes pequenos,
A pele que escurece 
Enquanto,
 Debaixo do sol ardente
 De doçuras,
Contemplamos os extremos...
Entre o céu azul de amarguras e 
O subterrâneo que esquecemos...
Partido por dores e
Junto a sorrisos serenos,
O vasto espaço que 
Abriga a tese,
~A distância que não impede
Nem altera a presença indignada.
A tranquila chegada e
A leve marcha que dançaremos...~
O produto dos meus impulsos,
Diurno e noturnos afagos
Que trocaremos...
Uma vez ou, 
Mais de uma prece que, 
Pronunciou seus atos,
Qnde apenas o vazio
Entendemos...
~Se procuro por meus laços,
Se encontrasse o vácuo,
De mera ternura esqueçemos,
 Quando não enlouquecemos.~
Aqueles que passam por mim,
Os que passam seu tempo 
Sem se diminuir,
Fazem de perder a cura,
Se a cura for
O que não fazemos.
Parte do que de pronto sou,
~Um tonto ou o que chove
quando amo,
Com Ou Sem O Impulso Do Músculo,
Que o coração busca bater,
Batendo...~

Com Amor,
Djanine Putin

Stuff - Coisas


Surprising Statistics That Reveal How Much Stuff We Actually Own

Most of us know we own too much stuff. We feel the weight and burden of our clutter. We tire of cleaning and managing and organizing. Our toy rooms are messy, our drawers don’t close, and our closets are filled from top to bottom. The evidence of clutter is all around us.
Today, increasing data is being collected about our homes, our shopping habits, and our spending. The research is confirming our observation: we own too much stuff. And it is robbing us of life.
Here are 21 surprising statistics about our clutter that help us understand how big of a problem our accumulation has actually become.

1. There are 300,000 items in the average American home (LA Times).
2. The average size of the American home has nearly tripled in size over the past 50 years (NPR).
3. And still, 1 out of every 10 Americans rent offsite storage—the fastest growing segment of the commercial real estate industry over the past four decades. (New York Times Magazine).
4. While 25% of people with two-car garages don’t have room to park cars inside them and 32% only have room for one vehicle. (U.S. Department of Energy).
5. The United States has upward of 50,000 storage facilities, more than five times the number of Starbucks. Currently, there is 7.3 square feet of self storage space for every man, woman and child in the nation. Thus, it is physically possible that every American could stand—all at the same time—under the total canopy of self storage roofing (SSA).
6. British research found that the average 10-year-old owns 238 toys but plays with just 12 daily (The Telegraph).
7. 3.1% of the world’s children live in America, but they own 40% of the toys consumed globally (UCLA).
8. The average American woman owns 30 outfits—one for every day of the month. In 1930, that figure was nine (Forbes).
9. The average American family spends $1,700 on clothes annually (Forbes).
10. While the average American throws away 65 pounds of clothing per year (Huffington Post).
11. Nearly half of American households don’t save any money (Business Insider).
12. But our homes have more television sets than people. And those television sets are turned on for more than a third of the day—eight hours, 14 minutes (USA Today).
13. Some reports indicate we consume twice as many material goods today as we did 50 years ago (The Story of Stuff).
14. Currently, the 12 percent of the world’s population that lives in North America and Western Europe account for 60 percent of private consumption spending, while the one-third living in South Asia and sub-Saharan Africa accounts for only 3.2 percent (Worldwatch Institute).
15. Americans donate 1.9% of their income to charitable causes (NCCS/IRS). While 6 billion people worldwide live on less than $13,000/year (National Geographic).
16. Americans spend more on shoes, jewelry, and watches ($100 billion) than on higher education (Psychology Today).
17. Shopping malls outnumber high schools. And 93% of teenage girls rank shopping as their favorite past time (Affluenza).
18. Women will spend more than eight years of their lives shopping (The Daily Mail).
19. Over the course of our lifetime, we will spend a total of 3,680 hours or 153 days searching for misplaced items.The research found we lose up to nine items every day—or 198,743 in a lifetime. Phones, keys, sunglasses, and paperwork top the list (The Daily Mail).
20. Americans spend $1.2 trillion annually on goods and services on nonessential goods—in other words, items they do not need (The Wall Street Journal).
21. The $8 billion home organization industry has more than doubled in size since the early 2000’s—growing at a staggering rate of 10% each year (Uppercase).

The numbers paint a jarring picture of excessive consumption and unnecessary accumulation. Fortunately, the solution is not difficult. The invitation to own less is an invitation to freedom, intentionality, and passion. And it can be discovered at your nearest drop-off center.

Flow - Fluir

-Some Times It´s Easier To Call Jesus Directly- 
Pay Djanine, HOJEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
11/11/2022
It keeps moving, it's the flow. It won't wait for my second guesses. It won't stop for a minute to wonder. It is committed to moving, creating...
My comforts have many versions, and the flow will only see one truth.
My auto-pilot is blind, my senses shutdown and communication is only symbolic. The flow is flowing through what I thought I was, my cracks filled with what I can't describe... It gently guides me to embrace my unlabeled self.
No bargains nor infinite debts, no deals of silencing secrets kept prisoners in a present past. The flow won't betray. It is interested in the essence I overlook while I'm distracted trying to follow the processes of how I came to be... 


Why would I continue to foster the pain of not knowing how to stop hurting? Where is the shutoff switch? Out here, it only makes sense once is over. Out here there are provisions and conditions. I too can't forget the rules even when I give my best. Do we not deserve because we owe, or do we owe because we're not deserving? So the gambling goes on... 

The flow answers saying everything is Love or is asking for it. 
Then I'm back where I started; -Untamed, Unrestricted. Loved...

However briefly, Loved...
