 OF LIFE THAT IS A CARNIVAL


Peace in Ukraine has not happened yet, the dead buried in Iran are still being cried, the United States blew up another boat in the Pacific, in Cuba everything is missing, even communism, in Venezuela they release and arrest, in Somalia they continue to kill, in Hong Kong they arrest an opponent for 20 years, in Japan the Prime Minister gains a majority in parliament, and so many other news, all overshadowed by the revelations of the documents of the American socialite Epstein. With due forgiveness, they turned on the fan and it's left over for everyone except one, whom they want to protect in every way.


But the most talked about event in the sports area, in addition to the start of the Winter Olympic Games in Italy with good Brazilian representation, was the American football final, SuperBowl. Probably with the exception of the millions of Americans who understand this game, the other citizens enjoyed the Puerto Rican singer Bad Bunny. With a show in Spanish, he showed through music a country that millions in the world want, the United States more equal, more democratic and more united for good with its Latin American neighborhood, starting with its territory, Puerto Rico.


But all this does not overshadow the biggest party in the world that is worldwide consecrated as the greatest carnival in the world, the Rio Carnival. The whole country, whether geographically or by the population, regardless of age, race, religion, etc. performs its physical and mental catharsis. It is a break to release the soul and acquire energy to face the year with its political and economic ills. Through blocks, balls, carnival on the street, and even rest, he fraternizes and equalizes himself. The parades of the samba schools are a show apart. For its organization, participation of thousands of people, its creativity and beauty.


The Brazilian Carnival is the deepest demonstration of the soul, culture, roots, organization, organizational capacity and everything else of the Brazilian people. And like it or not, these values in different forms, regional or racial groups, are inserted in everyday life in Brazil. And also from an economic point of view, it is a phenomenon. More than 15 billion reais are injected into the economy that week. It is true that it is little compared to what has produced some scandals in the financial area in recent months, but it is significant.


There is carnival all over the world. With no jinga, it may even be with more money spent, but none compares to the Brazilian one. Not at all. In South Africa, financed by the billionaires who owen IFood, they wanted to copy the Brazilian carnival. And then they discovered that it has no copyright because Carnival is the soul of its people, it is the expression of its roots, culture. And people like ours, only exist in Brazil, where Carnival itself is the people's, calling the ills that politicians and their termetes from other areas produce carnival is a deep offense to the people. That has another name that can be pronounced and singing, but it can't be written. But, what has, has.
