I have a dream,
A song to sing
To help me cope
With Anything.
If you see the wonder
Of a Fairytale
You can take the future
Even if you fail.
(...)
I have a dream
A fantasy
To help me through
Reality
And my destination
Makes it worth the while
Pushing through the darkness
Still another mile.
I'm not gonna look for help here in BRAZIL those sort of dreams and brazil don't fit together do you know what's the rate of people taht even speak english in this hell hole?
Not even one percent
0.25%
That's how much.
But do you have any idea how poor Brazil is? Yes, Brazil has a lot of money but it doesn't get to it's people. People here are poor, education is good but not many have access to it. It's not like Portugal that if you don't put your kid in school you go to Jail. They would be crazy if they made a law like that here, because the prision is already filled with criminals, why put innocent people there?
Why take kids to foster homes if they're already filled of kids coming from abusive parents, teen pregnancy, crazy people, parents that couldn't afford a child.
Do you really think they would have time to invest the population in learning english?
So yeah not many schools have english here, and if they do they don't invest on it because they DON'T REALLY CARE.
So no. Dreams like that and BRAZIL don't fit together it's not easy like it is in Portugal.
I would like to change the english speakers percentage around here. But you also have to find people that are willing to learn too, and a lot of them are. They just don't have time. They're too busy trying to survive, trying to pay the bills, trying at least to have some semblance of a good life. Because what fairytales taught me was that you only have moments of happiness and they end when they do for a reason. Because it's not forever.
I have people that support me of course but only with words and for me that's not enough. Hell words have never been enough for me.
Actions speak louder than words.
Ever heard that? Yeah that's how I am. I could care less by what you say. If your mouth says something and your actions says another... Well, let's just say the flesh is stronger than the mind.
