BACK to the PAST(the good and the BAD)

Mozambique (African coast)

Some years passed, a young man was trained to live as an animal. He was left with a bag, a gun, their friends and thus fell 3 years of sacrifices to be able to survive. My country, which was not anything in the world (dictatorship), had a conflict stupid in all its colonies. All over, fortunately! Yet shown great form of colonization, but I believe that all people, good or bad, should have the right to manage their destinations.

This really is a Tabblo to make you think. Very good!
Liliana said at 4:59 p.m. on Nov 24, 2007:
É terrível... Foi vc que ficou lá três anos...? E quem tirou as fotos...?
Muito bom Tabblo, pelas images (muito duras, do pasado) e pelo texto. Muito obrigada.

Powerful images. Sadly I don't think the world has progressed much since then.

Fascinating tabblo.....really strong work .

Afonso, you have spoken of your time in Africa and I have seen the photos of the children in your previous Tabblos. This one has made it so personal. All of the images strike deeply, from the beautiful beach to the three young girls who are so ashamed to show their faces. I would like to add the right to OUR DIGNITY to your words. The monkey says it all. Thank you and Peace.

Peace be with you..... Never let the truth be forgotten

This tabblo is a small intimacy. We deserved comments ... but I'm grateful.
Liliana: É verdade, fui eu... e muitos mais. Claro que as fotos são minhas e dos meus colegas.Foi o primeiro grande choque, que moldou todo o meu carácter e personalidade, mas, durante a vida, nós temos que lutar em muitas batalhas para continuar a viver. Não concorda!?
Pamela, my friend, I appreciate the people who show sensitivity as you. We can not do anything to change the world. This tabblo not show almost nothing (it's a complement to tabblo "A distant place"). To me show a tabblo provocative, I liked that could be seen by one billion people, and nothing changes. The monkey, has always been a loyal friend, who was careful as a human.

AFONSO, eu acho que o passado só merece esse nome quando está esquecido, apagado. Se ainda nos provoca alguma reação, ou se deixou marcas no caráter, então ele é presente. Às vezes onipresente. As guerras nunca deixaram (ou deixarão) de existir: apenas migram de um lugar para outro, quando precisam de novas coisas para destruir. Suas palavras me trazem à mente certos poemas da Sophia de Mello Breyner Andresen sobre o mal da ditadura. Qualquer ditadura.

A very strong tabblo! well done!

Oui, des images vraiment très FORTES, salut mon ami.
Pkeener said at 2:17 p.m. on Nov 26, 2007:
Afonso, might we also call this tabblo: Back To The FUTURE??
TavarES said at 9:57 a.m. on Nov 27, 2007:
PAMELA: That's impossible! This tabblo is just an image of the past. The past was yesterday, the future is tomorrow ... And, we are only on the day of today! Understand me?

Thierry, Hello! Great man!!!
Noe said at 12:02 p.m. on Nov 27, 2007:
Amazing tabblo Afonso.
Loes said at 4:24 p.m. on Nov 27, 2007:
A very impressive tabblo!
AliDar said at 2:53 a.m. on Nov 28, 2007:
Very moving and powerful tabblo Afonso. I disagree with you about your tabblo not being able to affect change though. As individuals we can only speak our minds, but the more that speak out, the louder that voice becomes, and if your tabblo only changes the mind of one person, then there is yet another voice added to the many. Thank you.
Pkeener said at 5:43 p.m. on Nov 28, 2007:
Sim, Afonso, I understand. We only have the PRESENT
Rataskaa said at 10:02 p.m. on Nov 28, 2007:
Very powerful pictures. I am very grateful that you share them...without learning of the past then how are we to change the future and change our actions of today? Thank you.
Liliana said at 8:02 p.m. on Nov 30, 2007:
Obrigada por responder. Muito triste saber que você viveu isso... Mas é a realidade, o bom é sempre lembrar o que vivemos no passado, é parte de nós.
Antes, eu jamais tinha visto imagens de aquela guerra, fotos tao reais, nao só de um livro. Fiquei muito chocada mas grata a você.
EMA said at 5:42 p.m. on Dec 10, 2007:
Tantos jovens portugueses foram forçados a viver esse tormento da guerra! E para quê? Para nada ou talvez para satisfazer os delírios de grandeza de um político egocentrico e ditador.
Mas o melhor é mesmo viver o presente e deixar para trás o que já passou.
Tudo de bom para si!

Afonso ... Agora, eu sei que você um pouco melhor ~ Hugs meu amigo para as suas memórias
