Spring in Cochabamba

Since today the spring has come to this valley. The weather is warm in the afternoons and cool at nights, but I like the weather in the morning, it's a little bit different than warm and cool. When I leave my house and walk in the streets I can appreciate the color of the flowers and the blue, blue sky. Tonight I want to do something different and a good choice is a jazz concert in an old house.

I forgot, here in Bolivia today is like valentine's day, and the streets are full of cards sellers and stuffed animals. I think the chocolates and the florists stores are working very hard today, It's their day! I don't like that because I don't need a day to remember how much I love to someone, as a matter of fact I'm against any specific day that involves buying and selling of products and that is the unbridled consumerism; you don't have to give any presents just for specific days, you can give presents everyday, but beautiful presents that will live forever and don't cost anything.  Write a poem, say sublime words, make a present with your own hands but please don't think you can give them just a day, don't think like sheeps do. Don't follow anyone  and hate consumism.

Have a nice day and night, give kisses and hugs for no reason to the people that you love.

And watch this video performed by the greatest Jamiroquai.
