Vejam essa maravilha de cenário
É 'um episódio relicário
Que o artista, num sonho genial
Escolheu para este carnaval
E o asfalto como passarela
Será a tela
Do Brasil em forma de aquarela
Look at this wonderful scenario
It's a reliquary episode
That the artist, in a brilliant dream,
Chose for this carnival
And the asphalt as a catwalk
Will be the canvas
Of Brazil in the form of a watercolor
Aquarela Brasileira by Silas de Oliveira

Whenever the word happiness comes to my mind I think of samba! I grew up in Rio de Janeiro, which is a postcard city due to its natural beauty and its Carnival. When I was fifteen years old, a musician taught me to play the main beat of samba on the pandeiro, an instrument similar to the tambourine, during a moonlit party on the beach. Since then, I have not stopped playing that instrument! I left Brazil in 2015 and the feeling of homesickness increases day by day. Since I left, the need to play the pandeiro, especially Brazilian music, has grown greater and greater. Nowadays, it is easier to count the days I don't play the pandeiro. For me, playing samba is directly related to happiness. There is a famous song which says:
O samba é pai do prazer
O samba é filho da dor
Um grande poder transformador
Samba is the father of pleasure

How Does Fear Affect Our Roles as Mothers? - Neelam Shivhare explores some of the great ancient texts of India on motherhood, compares the behavior of Kaikayi and Yashoda
Neelam Shivhare explores some of the great ancient texts of India on motherhood, compares the behavior of Kaikayi and Yashoda, and realizes the importance of removing fear from our hearts in order to nurture our children.For young women like myself, who are future mothers, I trust we are on the path of becoming selfaware and brutally honest with ourselves. We are creative beings, never forgetting the gifts with which we have been bestowed— the love and tenderness, natural instincts, and intuition to feel the right path. It all lies in the mysterious meanderings of the heart. Are we really listening to our hearts, or confusing the bombarding information on social media with reality?
