we tend to be more objective under second languages, so why not using it?

Regards.

I believe we establish a deeper and more effective exchange of ideas by written words. When someone reads, brain builds a space for thoughts, for memory visitors and reflection guests. They all share and develop themselves in such a room a person is creating with every page turned or every chapter finished.  It is the way we cuddle from the inside. Writing is also so, but from a different perspective. The way we catch a moment in a picture we catch a thought over a paragraph as well. 

I like to catch my thoughts and also enjoy building my own space of reflections by reading others, that’s what I like from posting, that’s what internet and blogging are very useful too. I understand there must be a cover letter every time somebody intents applying for a job. This is something we’re not used to back here in Venezuela. Most of my writing job is posted in Spanish. I’m Spanish speaker but I’m trying this in English because in way I’m enjoying it. Besides, our consciousness changes with the language we speak in (I read an article about it) we tend to be more objective under second languages, so why not using it? I thank you in advance for letting these lines reach your lecture…

Sincerely yours

Oh lines, oh abroad!

Eventually the only right left is the right to lie ourselves and learn to feel comfortable at it, which is neither like dreaming or hoping, nope, and of course nor about cheating on or lying to each other. We´re aware of what’s become unaffordable nowadays, still, we keep on posing and posting with this sort of ideal of looking cool, wealthy, perhaps, showing a nice moment framed in a photograph and writing some impressions about a foreign matter, like such a thing matters, and yet we do it so. Some of us, more often than we’d like to, wait on a line for getting some groceries (that’s the day routine in Venezuela) and while we´re waiting, under a very hot morning; laughter and flirts can be noticed. I saw a girl put some make up on when she was reaching the cashier, after that I heard her say she had made it, that she had persuaded the man to allow her take two more packs of milk, so she took four instead of two. This is one of the cases what beauty and make up might be useful for these days, but that’s not why I said we lie to ourselves. In a case like the girl’s she lied to herself previously, when she was telling the man before me that she had a cousin living abroad and that she was taking modeling classes because out there, where her cousin is, there are a lot of job offers for models. The thing is I am her cousin and I’m not living abroad, I was just after the man she spoke with and I know she’s not taking any classes at all…
