Where the Eagles Fly

I want to go high where the eagles fly
I want to feel the wind rush on my face
I want to smell of nature, the trees and sea
I want to see the world from the sky

I want to live in peaceful space
I want to be free from all corruption
I want to explore without fear
I want to wish and know I'll receive

I want to be where no harm will ever get
I want to be where the evil can't come near
I want to go where it is neat
Where there is love
Where there is compassion
and joy around

I want to go high where the eagles fly
Fly and fly till my winds go tired
and finally land in the place of my dreams
where there's always peace
where there's love to share, to spread, to receive
I want to go high where the eagles fly

Candelight Vigil at Chicano Park

The event that took place at Chicano Park on Friday, October 2, was a very nice experience for me. I loved the ceremony that was held to commemorate the lives of the people that have died trying to cross the border since the gatekeeper was set. I had never attended an event like that, so while it was a new experience for me I felt like it was full of good spirits. I felt the love of the people that were there towards those that have died for the past 15 years since the wall was raised. Although there were not too many people there I felt like the people that were there were honest people trying to fight for a good cause. The speakers were very passionate about the message that they were giving out to the people that attended and the young lady that sung "Si Calla el Cantor", was definetly singing from the heart.

I loved the event, I believe that in a few years the event will grow bigger and evntually the message will rech its goal.

Take down the wall!!!

Domestic Violence Rally

October 1st 2009

The domestic violence rally seemed very random to me, I'm not sure I quite understood much of what was going on. Yet, I felt like the information was very good. I really feel that there could have been alittle more interaction with the people that were there to support the cause. Maybe allowing people from the crowd to participate by talking about maybe personal experiences. that way the people have a bigger reason to encourae others to be part of it.

I really loved the booth were they were doing the mural. I really like that they allowed anyone that wanted to be in it to put their painted hands on it. I loved that they were giving out those shirts that represent the cause that s a good way for everyone that participated to keep showing the message to people that didn't know about the event or to people that don't know that there exist organizations that fight for the cause.
