They Cut Down My Trees for Their “View” — So I Closed the Only Road
My son’s wife got physical with me, and I ended up hurt. A few hours
I smiled for the photo… but inside, I was terrified. Because this might be the last time my family sees me like this.
A story that tells me this story, at this moment when my papel comes to me as many times, it’s long and hard to eat. It doesn’t appear to me that something is ‘common’, and there is an image that you can see before it shows a picture of what you want to see.
I look at this photo and the first thing that comes to mind isn’t the pain, but the miracle of being alive. I am Cláudio, and that man there, lying among wires and tubes, is me. Or rather, it was the version of me that fought the most important battle of my life.
Many may look at this photo and see only the scars, the visible battle in each mark on my face, and the weariness in my eyes. But when I look at it, I see proof that, despite everything, I am still here, resisting.
