Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 9 degrees, cool, sunny, and slightly overcast.
It’s lovely to see the weather milder than when I arrived.
The nights are bitterly cold, and the days are mild by British standards. Spring is coming, and it is nice to see the trees along the canal paths and my mother’s next-door neighbours’ trees blossoming in a beautiful, dark pink, almost purple hue.
As it is the first day of the new year in Brazil, Monday after Carnival, we’re supposed to see business, services, production, and the economy in general begin to turn its cogs; things should start to happen in Brazil. However, with Lula’s international reputation being tarnished on every business and political trip, it is difficult for Brazil to move forward and be taken seriously.
To insinuate that the Israeli war against Hamas is the same as the Holocaust is, besides being stupid, inconsequential and irresponsible, but as he represents Brazil, Brazilians, Brazilian Jews, and Jewish money in Brazil, he’s very ignorant.
Political suicide! It is only a matter of time before he goes.
Since Lula was elected under very suspicious circumstances, I have always believed that the truth ultimately prevails. If or when you cross the line of deceit and debauchery, there is little you can sustain, and you can’t go back once you have crossed; time is cruel and eventually catches up with you, punishing you more harshly than ever.
Lula has made his bed with the devil, and now he has to lie on it. When you sell your soul for superficial values, such as power, greed, and wealth, you eventually pay a very high price.
To me, it is clear that it is a power-ego matter that, in terms of character, makes him poorer than the poorest of people. However, what is worse is that such a person affects the lives of more than 200 million people, including good individuals who wish to lead decent lives with their families and work honestly.
I have always believed that eventually good will always prevail, but when and at what price? How many innocent lives have to be lost or sacrificed because of the greed of one man or a group of ignorant, inhumane devouring vampires?
For me, I hope Lula rots in hell!
I have downloaded several e-books on social media, digital marketing, and YouTube that I will read before the weekend. I will probably know 80 to 90% of what is written, but it will be good for me to read and study again to revise and refresh my understanding of what I already know.
I spoke with Nalva in the morning through WhatsApp messages to inform her that I had received a small amount of money, and I’m willing to help her on the condition that she does her part. I also spoke to Yasmin twice as she went back to school after carnival.
She hasn’t received her new laptop from school yet, but she said that the teacher told everybody that they would receive them by the 28th of this month. I asked Yasmin about her and her mother, and she said everything was better; nobody died!
So, a good start to the Brazilian new year.
I have money in my account, books to read, and blogs are being posted every day during the working week. I exercise regularly, and I’m looking good. How good is that?
Now Phase 2!
In bed by 11 p.m.
Thank you.
