Hotter than Hell.

Juanmanuel Cunningham, ,

Sometimes we confuse bravery with recklessness but the question here is to think how far you would go in a moment of trouble. Would you run that extra mile we should not? Would you break the rules for a piece of bread? I guess we would in a certain moment of our lives. The issue goes more deeper than we think, when we walk this earth we leave a footprint bigger than ourselves, we create ripples in the fabric of our social life that sometimes bring us to the center and sometimes to the edge of it. I have flown all across the world and left footprints everywhere, my image and soul have cracked the very core of many dreams and I apologize for it. I had to do it. I had to walk in the shadows; I had nothing else to do, nowhere else to flee.

Find yourself in the middle of the storm and cry out for help for none to listen, none to care. I guess you will become the lightning that strikes many times in the same spot. The lone wolf hunting in the meadows.

For I was to be here, fighting against fate and being drunk of love. Blinded by circumstances and lost in a foreign land. We are very good at judging and crawling over people’s motivations. We love to live in the conditional world and wallow in uncertainty. For those ready to jump into conclusions, close your eyes and feel the air cutting your forehead. For those ready to crawl into sin be aware of the mud gathering on your knees.

Sometimes life is hotter than hell.

iron maiden, Juanmanuel Cunningham, Music, old times

I remember when we used to be unaware of most of everything. We did not know anything at all, we just were, there, around, walking and trying to find mysteries we did not even know they existed.
I remember having to copy cassettes from friends to get the latest imported album, borrowing underground porn, renting copied VHS tapes, and finding the best Slayer album 3 years after its release. it was fun, we were surporised and amazed by everything. I always had this hope of having that bootleg album I had heard of. That song I heard somewhere and I did not have a clue who sang it.
We are now all doomed , we must know it all, if we don’t the common questions comes: “did you google it?? ” and we believe everything that there is, we even trust our health to Google. If we have a pain somewhere, just search it and do what it is said there.
Have a problem, do what that old blog says, need to know the future, consult the online fortune teller, we are so submerged in it that we do not even bother to walk around and meet the neighbors, we just twitt what ever thought is in our minds.
I am not against it, but I am aware of it. We should be more responsible when using Google, twitter, Facebook and all those hundreds of social sites and networks.

When was the last time you heard a record from the first note to the last, when was the last time you spent the day listening over and over to a LP just mesmerized by its cover (Iron Maiden used to blow mi mind) …??

I feel like talking with my granpa and apologizing by not understanding his words when complained about the TV, Atari and Walkman…..
