forecasts are not encouraging: we must prepare for a year very violent. How many more deaths Can we tolerate further blood and pain? Analysts warn that the closer the elections, the spiral of violence triggered. Yes, like a shot in the head or a bomb on a bus. That does not speak well of our political class, our dial democratic exercise.
Nobody prepares to face the future. Accumulated numbers of deaths, murders, robberies, extortion and among so much evil is hard to find that "something" encouraging that give us strength to out of life: work, study, engage, laugh, love and follow moved by the other. We feed on fear. The media bring us news to total news to paranoia, to corner us in our most extreme terrors. And when we allow fear into our lives, we give up freedom. As Cortázar's story, we become the property of our stuff.
The mistrust towards the other, the poor, the needy, the stranger, the neighbor, the young rocker and different becomes the norm. Stop looking for solutions to violence and more we avail ourselves of it. Gunmen hired to look after us, we bought a gun and caress at night climbed the walls to avoid seeing the neighbors, ask death penalty and an eye for an eye. Be moved by the other becomes a weakness. feed fear and live arms, soldiers, thugs, the killers, security companies, parliamentarians and politicians to promise tough.
But we can always flip the tortilla: trust, dare and OSEM face with courage and fortitude desolation. What more can we lose?
