“A vida é cruel por ter inventado a memória. Como os velhos que recobram em matizes suas lembranças mais antigas, à beira da morte minha memória gravita em torno do sol, e como ele clareia tudo! Tudo é presente, nada está perdido. É como uma força oculta que nos impele para nos estimular de novo: diante da evidência de que não mais haverá futuro, o passado se amplifica, suas raízes engrossam, tudo em mim é rizosfera, as cores se cristalizam sobre cada estrato,
a mais insignificante imagem toca o seu absoluto, o coração bate em crescendo.” ― Frida Kahlo

The images are beautiful. I’d love to have 1 or 2 of these gracing my home.

“Tudo é presente, nada está perdido.” It would appear señora Kahlo wrote this before she hit 60. 🙂 Nice photos with great detail and lighting.

I’m not sure of the time frame but you’re probably right about it being before 60. 🙂 Thanks David.

Happy Cinco de Mayo! Beautiful photos, so festive! Love the Frida quote, it is amazing when the most insignificant image touches the heart. Wonderful music videos, Jimmy Buffett and Rodrigo and Gabriela. Have a marvelous day! Terrific and very fun post! ~ Mia 🙂

Happy Cinco de Mayo Mia! 🙂 What’s funny is I had done this before talking to you last night. So when you said you were coming dressed as Frida I had to check my closet to see if you were hiding in there. 🙂 Today seemed to go fast so it was a good day, from Frida to Friday. Hope you have had a good cinco and that your seis will be terrific as well. Gracias querido amiga. 🙂

Cheers! 🙂 English version:
“Life is cruel to have invented memory. How to regain the old shades in their earliest memories; dying, my memory revolves around the sun, and how it brightens everything! Everything is present, nothing is lost. It’s like a hidden force which impels us to be encouraged again, in the face of evidence that there will be no more future. The past is amplified, its roots thicken. Everything in me is rhizosphere. The colors are crystallized on each stratum. The smallest image plays its absolute; the heart beats on the rise.”
