Just a simple opinion

Knowing the situation that Portugal is living I just like to say that the government and all the parliament have to be very careful about what you will decide, first you have to think about all the portuguese people because their future is in your hands. Be careful!

At university again

My graduation at Harvard's university in 1940. What a day! One of the most happiest in my life.
As you may think I wasn't a brilliant student I was normal. I like to practice lots of sports such as golf, basketball, tennis, football, etc. Before I go to Harvard's university I've studied in Choate. I wish the same luck to all the students and especially to group 4 of english class. I hope they will go to a good university and take a great course as well!

Reflexions



“A man may die, nations may rise and fall, but an idea lives on.” John F. Kennedy

  Today I decided to share with you one of my quotes. The message that I want to pass to all of you is that after my death and after so many presidents, my motto continues alive. People still believe in my work and they remember me with lots of joy and admiration.
So, don´t give up of your dreams and believes. Maybe you can make the difference if you believe in your capabilities, and you can change people´s acts with your words.

FRIENDSHIP connects people :)

                                            Me and my best friend Lem Billings


                                              The three brothers: Robert, Ted and Me

                                   Martin Luther King was also a friend of mine
                                  and we fought for the same cause: civil rights

I identify myself a lot with these people because they supported me throughout my life, having been present at my best and worst moments. One such example is my best friend, Lem was the decorator of my house and he was gay. I especially respect him for that, not being afraid to take risks and to assume in society.
Second, comes my brothers, we seem to be the three little pigs who never large and always go together. Interestingly, all of us follow the path of politics, but only I've become president:)
And last, but equally or more important than the others appears Martin. He was a great human being as a father, husband and man. He touched people with his words and encouraged them to act. If the world is currently less racially prejudiced him what we owe. Thank you all, I will never forget you.
P.S  I tried to get photos of us both Martin, but almost all you show up with my brothers. Too bad, huh?

Woman´s Day - Celebrate it with me :)


On 8th March we celebrate Woman´s Day, and so I am going to talk about my wife Jackie Kennedy. She liked to practice horse riding, reading, poetry, and especially she was an expert in fashion and decoration.
In the 60´s, she became an activist, a modern woman and an icon to the world. She knew how to impress and how to dress.
Everybody loved her and all women wanted to be like her.
This picture describes Jackie as woman and what she thought about them (Women).
She dreamt that one day, all of them would become independent of men, revolutionaries and not this: “What is sad for women of my generation is that they weren't supposed to work if they had families. What were they going to do when the children are grown - watch the raindrops coming down the window pane?”
So, here  I present you some pictures of her.
SHE WAS:


                                                                    
Mother

Wife

First Lady

And Woman, of course!
