PRESENTATION
Personally, the writer of these lines has been participating since January 2010 in the enterprise "Barcelona Consensus."
And soon, between 1 and 3 May of 2011, the English organizers have planned a face meeting in Barcelona, \u200b\u200bcalling on participants during the past year 2010 made their personal contributions and their proposals within the framework of such an activity, at the same assessments made on the recommendations expressed by other participants.
And personally, since a few weeks in order to prepare myself I also attend this important meeting and ferment.
As we have informed the organizers, those will be days of intense work, which I wholeheartedly support major initiatives arising. But this time, rather than refer to the proposed meeting itself and its scope, what I want is to specify a greeting addressed to people from different geographical locations will meet in Catalonia, for the purposes already mentioned.
How to structure a greeting and a welcome message in the case in question?
Rather than referring to the goals can be realized there, I feel the need in a few lines to convey the feelings and desires that I seized this moment and in the absence of good ideas of their own, prefer to convey my message by way of a poem I selected after much thought.
is the beautiful and moving poem Peruvian composer Augusto Polo Campos Armando, who is remembered and reproduced below, and it was timely to music and performed with success by the folk singer James Chalar ( Carlos Alfredo Paravís Salaverry, Uruguay) as well as other international greats such as, for example Jorge Antonio Cafrune Argentina (Argentine ), Julio Alfredo Jaramillo Laurido ( Ecuador), Carmen Montoro (Peru), and Norma Cecilia Bracamonte Chocano (Peruvian also .)
What about this poem? What interpretation to give, if what you say clearly understood?
Indeed, these lines are a brilliant and short-ethical argument, it depicts the current profile of today's man, hungry for love and life, but has not learned to respect the lives of others or the nature, nor has learned to love with sincerity and devotion.
The man of today is controlled by a consumer society, which in most cases it does not prepare or help you live a honest and fair.
The man of today is full of contradictions, since it seeks to find peace on the path of violence and war.
The Man longs today discover other worlds, and strives to conquer the depths of the seas as well as detailed knowledge of the celestial bodies closest to us.
man today is proud of the scientific and technological progress has been made, but is not able to know and fully understand their own social environment, and to live in that space in peace and harmony with others.
humanity never had as it has today in their hands, the scientific and technical advances as to alleviate the suffering of the destitute, and how to solve the problem of hunger and poverty, which remains an important sentencing mass population.
humanity never had much awareness of the dignity of every human being, and never before have made many statements regarding fundamental rights.
But despite the above, we still dominate the selfishness, racism, violence, discrimination at different.
True, with individual will be trying not to fall into the vicious circle mentioned. But after touring part of this road, there are many who are discouraged, as they observe their peers left and right to freedom and impunity that guide their lives in another sense, so many are those who say: "Obviously I'm doing the fool, what I'm doing almost no use as compensation limits me in my achievements and personal satisfaction. "
Every human being is confronted and divided in his own heart, by two opposing trends, the good and solidarity, and selfishness at all costs.
be not a question of the role of supreme judge, but to recognize that the society in which we live is not only unjust but also unsustainable in the medium term.
hope to confidence that those who promote and support the "Barcelona Consensus", know how to find the best ways and the best solutions.
