Snoring On Belly With Mouth Closed

Blog ...


He once shot the title of the blog and some of the spirit of it. At this point it would be politically correct to say that the area was born with a national spirit and popular, but the truth is that these ideas were added to the blog (me first) according to the political situation that we lived in recent times. Yesterday just thought vaguely, and embryonic light on something related: the differences in the people's governments of old and contemporary. I warn them a great difference in regard to a strong national sentiment in the first and an idea of \u200b\u200bPatria Grande which take up the latter, perhaps so many caution in these ideological anchor the primal of our Latin American patriots.

A January 28 and today, but in 1853 in Havana, Cuba, José Martí was born. Thinker, prolific writing (The Golden Age is a wonderful story for any child in Latin America), Revolutionary ...
