HUMANISM: DREAMS TO AVOID NIGHTMARES

Mariona and Jaume Bond dreaming

Yesterday, The Bonds woke up with the strange feeling of staying in another place. All of them remembered Venice and the Carnivale with strong memories but, it seems that they have never travelled to the city of channels and dreams.

It's difficult to explain but after their last experiences in San Francisco with the hippie community and in the Navajo Nation with the incredible experience of The Blessing Way and the consume of peyote, the family has big problems to remember things.

By the way, the family was revising some English Telephoning and some aspects of Past Tenses like While, When, As soon as, Before and After. They also sent a tweet about Levi Strauss and the origin of the jeans; they practised the Simple Conditional, and they talked about Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, a genius.

After receiving an incredible present and becoming as small as an ant because of the emotion, The Grandma explained some stories about dreams and literature with Bernat Metge, one of the most important writers during the Humanism; San Juan de la Cruz and Santa Teresa de Jesús, the ascetics poets.

Finally, the family tried to know what really had happened these four last days but, at the end, all seemed a dream... or was it real?

We are the dream - Muriel Casals.

After that, The Grandma has explained some stories about the importance of February, 2 in our culture, especially in Mallorca and about the influence of Masonry in the architecture and design of cities like Washington DC, New York, Barcelona, Paris or Buenos Aires.

May it please our Lord to kindle 

a new light of the world 

which may guide unbelievers to conversion, 

that with us they may meet Christ, 

to whom be honor and praise world without end.
