Luz en los oscuros jardines


Luz en los oscuros jardines
Día de sol
lleno de magia. . .

El azul silencio
se interrumpe
con el llanto de los niños.

Recuerdos de trenes
se pierden en la distancia. . .

Fue hace tanto tiempo.
¿Fue hace tanto tiempo?

Light in the dark gardens


Light in the dark gardens Sunny day, full of magic . .
The blue silence it is interrupted with the crying of children.
Train souvenirs They get lost in the distance. . .
It was so long ago. It was so long ago? Lía Olga Herrera Soto

Anonymous Heroes of the Fatherland


The road to freedom is arduous. Our people know it well. Let's briefly review their battles.
On May 25, 1810, the May Revolution allowed the organization of the First National Government.
In 1813 the Constituent Assembly decided to create the Directory, a unipersonal power to face the problems that did not overwhelm.
In 1813 the Freedom of Bellies and the prohibition of torture were declared. One of the toughest battles to obtain Freedom had been won.
In 1815 things were not going well in Our America. In Mexico they shot the revolutionary José María Morelos. In Venezuela Bolívar and his patriots were defeated by the royalist forces.
Before the loss of Alto Peru in 1815 the defense of the North was in the hands of General Miguel Martin de Güemes, who gave us oxygen until his death.
San Martín resigned to the headquarters of the Army of the North. He resigned strategically. San Martin organized the new government of Cuyo and developed the Emancipatory Plan.
It was a terrible blow that Potosi will remain in the hands of the royalists. On the one hand, Our brothers were the work of a slave hand in the mines and on the other, Spain filled its silver coffers to generate weapons with which to destroy us.
San Martin, urged by the duty, wrote to the deputy Tomás Godoy Cruz:. . . "Until when do we expect to declare our independence? Does not it seem a ridiculous thing to coin money, to have a national flag and a national coward, and finally to make war on the sovereign whom we believe we depend on the day? " . .
San Martín analyzes the state of affairs with these words:. . . "The enemies treat us as insurgents, because we declare ourselves vassals. Be sure that no one will accompany us in such a situation. " . .
Then, San Martin insistently manages to be understood by the deputies from Mendoza. The General writes:. . . "Cheer up! that for the Men of Courage the companies have been made ". . .
San Martín, Belgrano and Pueyrredón were the great moral supporters of the Congress of Tucumán knew that a Great Battle for Freedom had been won with the Declaration of Independence of 1816.
When the Constitution was sanctioned in 1853, we won again because freedom is won at all times with everyday actions.
Today in 2019 we have many battles to win. The running of Time overwhelms us. In the name of Progress they separate us. Persevering in the study and in the work we make our country bigger every day. Every day is the perfect opportunity to accept Our Differences and Our Errors. We have fought a lot, together we will come to victory. In the silence, in the daily struggle each one of us is an Anonymous Hero of the Homeland. Do not give up We are Argentines.

Héroes Anónimos de la Patria


El Camino de la Libertad es arduo. Nuestro Pueblo lo sabe bien. Repasemos brevemente sus batallas.
El 25 de mayo de 1810 la Revolución de Mayo permitió la organización del Primer Gobierno Patrio.
En 1813 la Asamblea constituyente decidió crear el Directorio, Un poder unipersonal para enfrentar los problemas que no agobiaban.
En 1813 se declaro la Libertad de Vientres y la Prohibición de la Tortura. Una de las batallas más duras para obtener la Libertad había sido ganada.
En 1815 las cosas no iban bien en Nuestra  América. En México fusilaban al revolucionario José María Morelos. En Venezuela Bolívar y sus patriotas eran derrotados por las fuerzas realistas.
Ante la pérdida del Alto Perú en 1815 la defensa del Norte  quedó en manos del General  Miguel Martín de Güemes, quién nos dio oxigeno hasta su muerte.
San Martín renunció a la jefatura del Ejército del Norte. Renunció estratégicamente. San Martín organizó la nueva gobernación de Cuyo y elaboro el Plan Emancipador.
Fue un terrible golpe que potosí quedará en manos de los realistas. Por un lado, Nuestros hermanos fueron obra de mano esclava en las minas y por el otro, España  lleno sus arcas de plata para generar armamento con el cual destruirnos.
San Martín, apremiado por el deber, escribió al diputado Tomás Godoy Cruz: . . . “¿Hasta cuándo esperamos declarar nuestra independencia? ¿No le parece a  Usted cosa ridícula acuñar moneda, tener pabellón y cucarda nacional y por último hacer la guerra al soberano de quien en el día se cree que dependemos?” . .  .
San Martín analiza el estado de situación con estas palabras: .  .  . “Los enemigos nos tratan de insurgentes, pues nos declaramos vasallos. Esté usted seguro que nadie nos acompañará en tal situación” . . .
Luego, San Martín con insistencia logra ser comprendido por los diputados mendocinos. El General escribe: . . . “¡Ánimo! que para los Hombres de Coraje se han hecho las empresas” . . .
San Martín, Belgrano y Pueyrredón  fueron los grandes apoyos morales del Congreso de Tucumán.Ellos sabían que una Gran batalla por la Libertad había sido ganada con la declaración de  Independencia de 1816.
Cuando se sancionó la Constitución en 1853 volvimos a ganar porque la libertad se gana en todos los tiempos con las acciones cotidianas.
Hoy en 2019 tenemos muchas batallas por ganar. El correr del Tiempo nos abruma. En nombre del Progreso nos separan. Perseverando en el estudio y en el trabajo hacemos cada día más grande Nuestro País. Cada día es la oportunidad perfecta para aceptar Nuestras Diferencias y Nuestros Errores. Hemos luchado mucho, juntos llegaremos a la victoria.  En el silencio, en la lucha cotidiana cada uno de nosotros es un Héroe Anónimo de la Patria. No nos rindamos. Somos Argentinos.

Reasons

An empty notebook, a new possibility. The creation is crowded, it contracts, it expands.

Brother, I would like to tell you so many things. I would like to tell you about what unites us. I want to explain to you the riches of our differences. Would you open the door to Freedom?

I can not tell you anything, as long as your heart stays armored. Your mind is cold as a dead man.
Yes, brother, Yes.

Brother tell the dead man who lives inside you to abandon the hate that does not let you live.

Lía Olga Herrera Soto

Razones


Un cuaderno vacío, una nueva posibilidad. La creación se agolpa, se contrae, se expande.
Hermano, quisiera contarte tantas cosas. Quisiera hablarte de lo que nos une. Quiero explicarte las riquezas de nuestras diferencias. ¿Abrirías la puerta a la Libertad?
No puedo contarte nada mientras tu corazón se mantenga blindado. Tu mente está fría como un muerto. Si, hermano, Si. 
Hermano dile al muerto que vive dentro de ti que abandone el odio que no te deja vivir.

The Fight for Freedom through time. . .



Then I translated my article on July 9, 2017 into English. Two years later I still think the same. In the article he explained that Venezuela is bleeding. Today, I remind you that there is no worse blind than the one who does not want to see. God save our America because the dictators will not save it. . .

The Struggle of Continuous Freedom. . .
The days of time tell that on July 9, 1816, in the then United Provinces of the Río de la Plata, a group of patriots gathered in Tucumán signed the Act of Independence.
In other words, Argentina had its first native government in 1810, abolished slavery from 1813, declared its independence in 1816 and entered a period of political instability and civil wars that made it impossible to sanction a National Constitution until 1853.
The good news is that the Argentine National Constitution is representative, republican and federal, which is why all my ancestors came here. Argentina welcomed them all, Lutherans, Catholics and Jews. Argentina received them all Basques, Spaniards, Irish and Poles. But Argentina was not always a pleasant place, neither brave nor loving towards others. There was and continues to exist an Argentina fearful of its Freedom and Responsibility that means.
San Martin is next to Bolivar and Washington one of the Great Liberators of America. He planned to cross the Andes and liberate Chile, Peru and present-day Bolivia. Buenos Aires was thinking about the issue, but my way, as the Mexicans would say. Of males no more the brave Monteagudo, San Martin, O'Higgins, Belgrano, Bolivar and Sucre and their anonymous soldiers never paid any attention to the rich. If it were for the rich and powerful, Slavery would never have been abolished.
San Martin was successful and managed to liberate three villages, although half of Latin America did not recognize him and will force him to go into exile and leave his troops under Bolívar after a momentous meeting in Ecuador.
That type of men we need. In these moments in which Venezuela is bleeding, in which Argentina does not find solutions to its problems, in which Cuba believes to be in Libertad without being it is in San Martín that we must think.

You'll say? What will you teach?
What reasons do you use to perpetuate your political, economic or religious violence?
Do you not understand that by your actions you will be judged?
The Human Being remembers all the genocides. Did not you know? In our DNA are the marks that the Plague left to the Survivors.

¿Qué vas a decir? ¿Qué vas a enseñar?
¿Qué razones esgrimes para perpetuar tus violencias políticas, económicas o religiosas?
¿Acaso no comprendes que por tus actos serás juzgado?
El Ser Humano recuerda todos los genocidios y a todos los genocidas ¿No lo sabías? En nuestro ADN están las marcas que la Peste dejó a los Sobrevivientes.
