IRREPARABLE LOSSES

What scary thing! 2019 begins with gloomy catastrophes. One of them, the one of Brumadinho, we blame the government because the one of Mariana was not enough to harden the law and avoid a second catastrophe.

They will say that there was no time and the guilty is the previous government. Now, the tragedy of Mariana was internationally spoken, it was to be a priority of this government, it was to be done a great inspection in all the dams, but the government counting on the short memory of the Brazilian people, leaves everything for later, furthermore, everything starts after of the Carnaval holidays and if theywere aware, they would see that there are other dams in danger of breaking, but two of them I can not even say the sadness that hits me, about two television icons. One in the journalistic area, Ricardo Eugênio Boechat, the other one in the artistic part that loses a great lady, Bibi Ferreira. All in such a short space of time. People say that nothing is irreplaceable, I disagree. The mother who loses one child may have ten others who will not replace the one she has lost. Just like the tragedy in Brumadinho, those who lost their loved ones, innocent souls, how to replace them? How to remedy? The same applies to Boechat and Bibi Ferreira. We got poorer in dignity (in Brumadinho), because it could be avoided; defenceless, since a serious and true reporter who defended the people like no one, an atheist with God in his heart, what many people say they believe in God, but they do not have Him in their hearts and Bibi, what a small name for such a great lady, so brilliant personality and gigantic in her talent.

I am desolate. Before I forget what can not be forgotten, the pain of the parents who lost their children in the nest of the urubu (a Brazilian sort of vulture), now stands in this game of ping-pong, who's to blame, my God! It is desperate to try to gauge the pain of their parents. I deliver a living son thinking of him having a better future and I get him back dead and inside a sealed coffin, they were not even able to see their son for the last time. Who is father and mother, who is not, measure the words that I am saying, you trusted in scoundrels because to leave those boys in such conditions in which they were, it has no qualifier. They will not be punished, they are in this ping-pong game, they are already starting the push-push game, saying that they did not have the license to work, so why was not it closed? Do you know why? It was not about the children of the authorities who were there. The guilt that the parents will feel to have entrusted the life so dear of their children, yes, as much as the parents are not guilty, they will always blame themselves. Now the real guilty people are sleeping peacefully, after all, their children are safely by their side.


My consternation, my condolences,
