A Gaudí siempre le preguntaban cuando acabarían lss obras, y el siempre respondía que su cliente no tiene prisa.
Para Antoni Gaudí, que murió tal día como hoy, hace 100 años, ingresado en un hospicio porque lo tomaron por un mendigo tras ser atropellado por un tranvía, habría sido un sueño saber que el Papa, los Reyes de España, el presidente del Gobierno y de la Generalitat, el alcalde de Barcelona y una larga lista de autoridades estarían, un siglo después, rindiéndole homenaje y mirando al cielo para ver cómo se iluminaba la torre de la iglesia más alta del mundo.
La epopeya de la Sagrada Familia, 144 años en construcción, y que aún no ha acabado, ha tenido uno de sus días para la historia con la solemne ceremonia religiosa que ha culminado con la bendición del Papa a la Torre de Jesucristo.
Otro momento que hará que la imagen de Barcelona dé la vuelta mundo, con 9.000 personas dentro del templo y 130.000 en el exterior
Y lo de los drones eso ya no se como expresarlo, mejor verlo.
Mañana comenzará el Mundial, y muchos estarán atentos a los partidos. El fútbol nos recuerda algo que no debemos olvidar: la vida no es una carrera para lucirse en solitario, sino un camino que aprendemos a recorrer juntos. Quien no sabe pasar el balón, aunque tenga talento, todavía no ha entendido el juego. Y quien no sabe vivir con los demás y para los demás, todavía no ha entendido la vida. #ViajeApostólico
The average person in Japan eats more salt than the average American. Around 10 grams a day. Americans get about 8.5. So if your face looked less puffy after one day in Tokyo, the salt in American food was never what was bloating you. What drains out that fast is water, and fat does not move in a single day.
A puffy face going down in 24 hours is your body dumping water it was hanging onto, plus clearing out food that was still sitting in your gut. Two normal parts of a trip to Japan handle both of those, fast.
The big one is walking. The average American takes about 5,100 steps a day, near the bottom for a wealthy country. Drop that same person in Tokyo, and they walk everywhere, to the train, around the station, out to dinner and back. Most tourists hit triple their usual steps without even trying. All that walking burns through the carbs your body keeps in storage. Those stored carbs are called glycogen, and every single gram of them is holding onto 3 to 4 grams of water. Burn the carbs, and that water leaves with them. Scientists in Sweden showed this back in 1970, when people's water weight climbed by almost five pounds in four days purely from carbs filling back up. Walking does two other things. It squeezes out the fluid that pools in your legs when you sit all day, and it keeps your gut moving, so less food sits there bloating you.
Then there is the food, though not the way the tweet means it. The packaged, factory-made stuff (chips, soda, frozen dinners) is about 53 percent of what a grown American eats in a day. In Japan it is closer to a third. Trade a few days of that for rice, fish, and vegetables, and you cut out a pile of the white carbs and added sugar that make your body grip water. You are also just eating less, because you are out walking instead of snacking, and jet lag flattens your appetite.
Add it all up and the slimmer face in the hotel mirror is mostly water and an emptier gut, with the fat on your body sitting exactly where it was the day you flew out. It comes back just as quick. Get home, sit back down, open the snacks, and the water returns within a few days. The you that debloated in Japan just walked a ton and skipped the soda. You can do that at home, no plane ticket needed.
the craziest thing about being an adult is that you could go through the most traumatic night of your life and you'll just have to go to work the next day
Your SPOUSE is the one who'll sit beside you when your PARENTS DIE. who'll hold your hand through CHILDBIRTH. who might have to BATHE YOU if you're ever too sick to stand. this isn't just about BUTTERFLIES or DATE NIGHTS. it's about choosing someone who SHOWS UP... in GRIEF, in MESS, in UNCERTAINTY. so no, LOVE ALONE isn't enough. COMMITMENT, MATURITY, and the ability to ENDURE life's ugly parts... that's what sustains a MARRIAGE. because when life gets PAINFULLY REAL, ROMANCE won't carry you... CHARACTER will. and the truth is, FOREVER is only possible with someone who knows how to STAY when it's HARD TO LOVE.
Increíble que ahora todo hace daño, que el aceite, que la leche, que bañarse todos los días, que dormir del lado derecho, todo es malo excepto trabajar 8 horas al día, 5 días a la semana. Eso sigue siendo buenísimo.
Mirad a este señor.
Miradlo bien. Contemplad esos ojitos borrosos a 70ppp de resolución.
Este MONSTRUO es Daniel Smith. Un artista loco canadiense que como los colores que le gustaban no existían y como los que existían al poco tiempo las marcas los descontinuaban dijo sabéis que voy a hacer?
ME VOY A MONTAR MI PROPIA MARCA.
YO SOLO.
ESTE BIGOTITO Y YO AMIGOS.
