Mind games
In my old blog, ive posted there these mind games that are really cool :-) as ive no more that blog, i will post them here again:
"Read out loud the text inside the triangle below:
More than likely you said "A bird in the bush" and...if this is what you said then you failed to see that the word THE is repeated TWICE! So, sorry, look again!
Next, let's play with some words.
What do you see?
In black you can read the word GOOD, in white the word EVIL (inside each black letter it's a white letter). It's all very physiological too, because it visualizes the concept that good can't exist without evil (or the absence of good is evil).
Now, what do you see?
You may not see it at first, but the white spaces read the word OPTICAL, the blue landscape reads the word ILLUSION. Look again! Can you see why this painting is called OPTICAL ILLUSION?
What do you see here?
This one is quite tricky!
The word TEACH reflects as the word LEARN.
Last one.
What do you see?
You probably read the word ME in brown, but...
When you look through ME you will see YOU!
Do you need to look again?
-------------------------------------
Now, test your brain.
This is really cool.
ALZHEIMER'S EYE TEST:
Count every F in the following text:
FINISHED FILES ARE THE RESULT OF YEARS OF SCIENTIFIC STUDY COMBINED WITH THE EXPERIENCE OF YEARS...
(see below)
How many?
Wrong, there are 6-no joke.
Read it again!
Really go back and try to find the the 6 F's before you scroll down.
The reasoning behind is further down.
The brain cannot process the word OF.
Incredible or what? Go back and look again!!
Anyone who counts all 6 F's on the first go is a genius.
3 is normal, 4 is quite rare."

Greenpeace message
I read this message from Greenpeace USA and i think its so important to spread it:
"Hello Everyone,
Our oceans are in trouble: 90% of the large fish that many people love to eat, such as tuna, swordfish, marlin, cod, halibut, skate, and flounder - have been fished out since large scale industrial fishing began in the 1950s. A recent international study concluded there may be no fish left in the oceans by 2048. Yikes!
But fish stocks can recover if they’re given a chance. It’s important that we act now to set up a system of marine reserves that will effectively protect our oceans for the future. You can help make this happen.
The US government has initiated a consultation process asking the American people about how it should go about creating a national network of protected areas in US waters.
Act Now!
Please take a minute to click off a message to NOAA letting them know the oceans are important to us!
Thanks!

Friends
I found these poems and quotes about friendship and they are so beautiful and so true that i felt i should post them here:
Friends
by Katy
Friend: that one special person
who makes life a bit
easier by just being
there and listening to your
problems and difficulties.
Friendship: a special bond
between two people.
A bond that time
cannot break. It is strong
like a chain, with linking hearts.
My Friend
through good times and bad times.
I will be on your side even if the the world ends.
When the world is going,
I will be here,
now and until the end.
Your my very best friend.
The one that I look up to.
The one that I run to, when I have a problem.
The one that I talk to.
Your the one best friend that was always there for me.
I wanna thank you for all the things you gave and showed me.
PS: this post is dedicated to all special friends all over the world :-)

My Friend
by Sammy Lane Sharp
We all need someone
To talk to in our life,
A friend to whom we run
In times of stress or strife
A friend who's always there
Throughout the years,
A friend we know will care
And take away our fears.
A friend who's always near,
Waiting for our call,
To wipe away our tears,
And lift us when we fall.
A loving friend indeed,
On whom we can depend
To fulfill our every need -
Thank you, precious friend
The One Best Friend
by Belle
through good times and bad times.
I will be on your side even if the the world ends.
When the world is going,
I will be here,
now and until the end.
Your my very best friend.
The one that I look up to.
The one that I run to, when I have a problem.
The one that I talk to.
Your the one best friend that was always there for me.
I wanna thank you for all the things you gave and showed me.
A Friend is a Treasure
A friend is someone we turn to,
when our spirits need a lift.
A friend is someone we treasure,
for our friendship is a gift.
A friend is someone who fills our lives,
with beauty, joy and grace.
And make the world we live in,
a better and happier place.

Why this name for this blog?
Very simple........Burslem Normals, a song that belongs to the new album from Robbie Williams, Rudebox, i think its one of the most beautiful songs Rob has already made....not only i love the lyrics but also the melody is wonderful and so touching.........this song kind of talks about good things that are gone, and with that people also are different now......we miss some good things we had in the past......and it seemed things were different at that time, or had a different meaning, the sun, the surf, all that meant so much to us, but now they are gone, and that makes us sad........
yeah its a beautiful song and that lyric "Goodbye to the normals" touched me so much that i decided to give that name to my new blog......sadly i deleted my old blog called "Maria do Mar World" and i feel really sorry if somebody is missing it.....but ive this blog now that ill try to make it as i was making the other one......
why i deleted it, may you ask? because i was stupid, i confess.....i was in one of those moments of our life where we feel we need to change something in our life to try to make it better, maybe.....i thought my blog was silly and that it didnt add anything in my life......dont know, it was a silly thing when i clicked that button that said "Delete this blog?".......i even tried to make another new blog where nobody could know who was writing it.........i never hide my name in my blogs or pages in internet and sometimes im afraid im opening too much my heart to people who know me and are my friends and read my blogs........if i show im happy they may feel happy for me........but if im feeling sad, they may feel sad for me......i dont like to know im spoiling my friends days with my sadnesses......so i had that new blog but only for one day because i gave up of my idea.........
but, well, im back with this new blog and i hope people will understand my moods and not be influenciated by my bad moods sometimes :-) its so nice to have here a blog and write things that i need to talk about.......
and if you want to make any comment i will be very happy to know people are reading my page, but if you dont have the time nor the patience, i will understand :-)
bye for now and to whoever is reading this now, have a good night and sweet dreams, because its already too late, and hope your day tomorrow will be plenty of beautiful things :-)

Smiles
I received these messages in an email and i thought it was a good idea to post them here because they are really nice, and sometimes they may give us a smile, when we are needing it :-)
here they are:
"This should probably be taped to your bathroom mirror where one could read it every day.
You may not realise it but it's 100% true.
- There at least two people in this world who you would die for.
- At least fifteen people in this world love you in some way.
- The only reason anyone would hate you is because they want to be just like you.
- A smile from you can bring happiness to anyone, even if they don't like you.
- Every night SOMEONE thinks about you before they go to sleep.
- You mean the world to someone, you are special and unique.
- Someone that you don't even know exists loves you.
- When you make the biggest mistake ever, something good comes from it.
- When you think the world has turned it's back on you take another look.
- Always remember the compliments that you received, forget about the rude remarks.
- Good friends are like stars, you can't always see them but you know they are always there.
- Whenever God closes one door, he always opens another.
- Even though sometimes it's Hell in the Hallway, I would rather have one rose and a kind word from a friend while I'm here than a whole truck load of flowers when I am gone."

Without You
I was now listening in the radio to a song that made me feel so sad.......because at the same time, its such a romantic song, so beautiful and touching, but also such a sad song.....made me feel a cold in my spine, made me remember my dark clouds that keep wanting not to leave me.........yeah its a wonderful song but better not listen to it now because i will cry and i dont want to......
but here is the video of Harry Nilsson singing it live and here are the lyrics:
Without You
Artist: Harry Nilsson
No, I can't forget this evening
Or your face as you were leaving
But I guess that's just the way the story goes
You always smile but in your eyes your sorrow shows
Yes, it shows
No, I can't forget tomorrow
When I think of all my sorrows
When I had you there but then I let you go
And now it's only fair that I should let you know
What you should know
I can't live if living is without you
I can't live, I can't give any more
Can't live if living is without you
I can't give, I can't give any more
No, I can't forget this evening
Or your face as you were leaving
But I guess that's just the way the story goes
You always smile but in your eyes your sorrow shows
Yes, it shows
Can't live if living is without you
I can't live, I can't give anymore
I can't live if living is without you
Can't live, I can't give anymore
(Living is without you)

Burslem Normals
Burslem Normals (Robbie Williams)
Can you hear me?
In your face
There's nowt left
They have defaced
The marks you left
Upon the wall
The writing not on there at all
Can you stand what you stood for
Are you more normal then before?
Goodbye to the normals
Goodbye to the normals
In your place
There's just chaps
The kids aren't alright
They know
They're born today
Reaching out to feel the sun
At the time it seemed like fun
I was there when you got done
Lived two weeks by the surf
We used to know what we were worth
Before the normals fell to earth
Goodbye to the normals
Goodbye to the normals
Whatever happened
To the mean mortals crew
The fine young casuals blew a fuse
And all the Burslem lads
Now that they're all dads
They meant so much to me
It makes me sad
In your wake
There's nowt left
Goodbye To The Normals Official RW Site
This video is great! at the same time so touching and so funny :-) i love it so much and its music is so wonderful....and the performance of the little boy is simply amazing......and i also think the child represents Rob himself :-)
