I dedicate this book to my loved ones, Fabiana, Vítor, and Cecilia. To my children: Ser sombra (do) presente, Norte do futuro, Um quadro velho na parede. A-presento-me, discretamente, Olhos no futuro das montanhas de sua vida. O que ensinar e o que aprender?. Que não estamos e somos sozinhos?. De indignar-se com a injustiça?. E celebrar a vida como eternas crianças?. Aprendendo, sempre?. Talvez a resposta seja: Sou apenas um velho e marcado espelho, Uma imagem manchada daquilo que estar por vir, De forma mais bela, em eterna imperfeição.

Also unmentioned are details of these ago
