"Music for Haiti"



It is terrifying what has happened in Haiti. It reminds me of how little control we have over our own lives. Natural disasters are bigger than us; bigger than anything we are and know.

I can't take the images out of my head...I can't stop thinking about what I should be doing. Everybody is DOING something. I feel so selfish sometimes. But I tend to freeze in the middle of tension.

I am so broke...how can I help?! I know there have been ways I just let pass :S

For now...I gave what I know...and what I surely have...MUSIC.

Fragment: TRAGEDY


Tragedy has touched upon my family on this dominican festive week. Now, all the little signals come together to try to make some sense out of something so surreal.

(Above: Tio Augusto and me; this picture he had in an album titled MEMORIES in his Windows Live profile, my cousin showed it to me :( )

"You were looking so handsome, young, happy and healthy lately! Just can't believe you're gone...You will be missed...terribly...Pushy reminded me of something so wonderful the other day...you gave me my NAME :) CIÓN TIO"

Ok, my stomach keeps hurting...

We were not created for dying in the 'original plan'. That's why 2009 years later of people dying, we still can't grasp it, still can't accept it, still can't understand it...

Lord, please have mercy...
