The River - El río


The river
I went down to the river. There she was, resting her hip on a moon rock. I approached slowly, and as our breaths melted into a single heat, the fleeting trail of the unicorn crossed, breaking our thread of gold. I reached out to caress her face and ... she vanished, to appear far away, sitting on the back of the unicorn that finally took her away from that river and from me.


El río
Bajé al rio. Allí estaba, apoyada la cadera en una roca lunar. Me acerqué despacio, y a medida que nuestros alientos se fundían en un único calor, la fugaz estela del unicornio se cruzó rompiendo nuestro hilo de oro. Extendí la mano para acariciar su rostro y… se desvaneció, para aparecer lejos, sentada a lomos del unicornio que la alejó definitivamente de aquel río y de mí.

The Mind Games - Los juegos de la mente

 The Mind Games Today I discovered something extraordinary. The external world does not exist. Everything around me, including people, objects, and events, exists only in my mind. They do not exist outside of it. Everything is a product of my imagination. It is my imagination that invents what happens to me at every moment. Thus, my life unfolds along the paths dictated by my imagination. We exist only in each other's minds.   Los juegos de la mente Hoy he descubierto algo extraordinario. El mundo exterior no existe. Lo que me rodea, incluidas personas, objetos y eventos están solo en mi mente. No existen fuera de ella. Todo es producto de mi imaginación. Ella es la que inventa lo que me ocurre en cada instante. De manera que mi vida transcurre por los caminos que dicta mi imaginación. No existimos sino en la mente de cada uno.

She - Ella

Image
She It was a dark night, with no shadows. He was driving absentmindedly on an unpaved road when, on a sharp curve, the headlights illuminated the figure of a woman. He turned the wheel quickly to try not to hit her but it was impossible. He braked the vehicle and got out quickly to help her. She then realized that she was dead. The headlights of his vehicle illuminated the macabre scene. He dragged her, with great difficulty, away from the road, and hid her behind some bushes. He returned home and that night he could not fall asleep; at dawn, he fell asleep. He woke up a while later remembering the accident. He got up and raised the blinds on the bedroom window. The image of the run-over woman was reflected in the mirror, sitting on the edge of the bed. He turned around terrified and there she was, with a trickle of blood coming down from the corner of her lips. She stayed to live with him forever. Already on his deathbed, she confessed that the accident was not even a coincidence. Aft...

Sparks of Light - Chispitas de luz

  Sparks of Light Each of us is a spark of light brief as a blink, yet dazzling in its moment. Though it lingers longer than a flicker, even eternity must come to an end when the sparks awaken and see that eternity is merely memory’s invention. And then—beyond eternity— comes the eternal now. Time does not flow, for it does not exist. nly the eternal present remains, with no beginning, and no end.   Chispitas de luz Cada uno de nosotros es una chispita de luz. Dura un instante, pero es un instante fabuloso. Aunque dura un poco más que una chispita, la eternidad también agota su tiempo, desaparece cuando las chispitas de luz se dan cuenta de que la eternidad es un invento de la memoria. Y entonces, después de la eternidad viene el eterno presente. El tiempo no fluye, porque no existe. Lo que existe es el eterno presente. Y el eterno presente no tiene fin ni tampoco un principio.
