Wars do not begin when the first shot is fired, but when the first weapon is built, the one that will serve to kill the enemy or someone different from us; we are animals thirsty for prey, a race that resolves conflicts with violence.

We dominate with the arrogance of those who compete for supremacy, convinced that we can save ourselves and conquer anything that exists in space and time.

The truth has been mystified many times in the long race for civilization, to achieve the progress that makes us live in abundance, in this wealthy part of the Western world.

Forgetting how we got here we avoid traveling the streets of the world waiting for the sunset light to stop somewhere; we seek the destination, but we avoid the journey that leads us to where we can find ourselves.

Self-referential, subjugated by the god of money, incapable of feeling emotions and changing the future, we exchange it for false cravings.

We don’t deserve what we have been given, thinking we are owed everything.
