Caminhada

Dia ensolarado de inverno no Litoral Norte de São Paulo, a praia está completamente vazia, serena e acolhedora, as dunas criadas pelas marés mais fortes do inverno são uma nova paisagem e a Mena caminha numa delas à minha frente e eu registo este momento de contato com a natureza.
Sunny day in the north coast of São Paulo, the beach is completed empty, serene and warm, the dunes created by the winter tides are a new landscape and Mena walks in one of them just head of me and I recorded thsi moment of fusion with nature.

The Nativity The representation of the birth of Christ in Bethlehem, the humble yet sublime scene of Joseph and Mary with baby Jesus in the stable with the animals, the shepherds and the star was always a central ornament at the home of our parents, grandparents, and great-grandparents. Just after our wedding, we bought our own set of the nativity, that we still use until today. No other tradition has brought Christ to our Christmas more than this one! 2. Christmas Eve Reading the account of the nativity in the scriptures and theatrical representations of the nativity is a key part of Christmas Eve. Fish is the traditional meal of Christmas Eve. As far as I can tell this is a tradition that comes from the XVI century. The exact reasons for this tradition are unknown, in my p...

All things have become new!

"Old things are done away, and all things have become new.", 3 Nephi 12:47 . A declaration of Jesus that he fulfilled the law of Moses and that his teachings are a new blueprint, or plan, to pattern our lives after His life.
