We long to be here for a purpose, even though, despite much self-deception, none is evident. The significance of our lives and our fragile planet is then determined only by our own wisdom and courage. We are the custodians of life’s meaning. We long for a Parent to care for us, to forgive us our errors, to save us from our childish mistakes. But knowledge is preferable to ignorance. Better by far to embrace the hard truth than a reassuring fable.
Terceira parte de uma série de filmes de tributo a Carl Sagan. Um excelente trabalho que pode ser seguido na página The Sagan Series no Facebook. A não perder os vídeos anteriores: Earth: The Pale Blue Dot e Life Looks For Life.
Comentários reflectidos e críticos são bem-vindos e pede-se a todos que subscrevam com o vosso verdadeiro nome (parece justo, não acham?). Ofensas, depreciações e disparates serão removidos ou poderão resultar em observações igualmente disparatadas por parte do autor do blogue.

The architecture blog A Barriga de um Arquitecto / The Belly of an Architect (written in bilingual Portuguese-English) is mainly focused on contemporary architecture and urban design, covering recent works from Portuguese architects as well as projects of international significance.
My name is Daniel Carrapa. I was born in Lisbon, Portugal, in 1973. I’m an architect living in Évora, a nice historical town that was included in the World Heritage List by UNESCO in 1986. I’m married, have 4 cats – Matilde, Patanisco, Olivia, Lisa – and 1 dog – Moby. Moby is a three-legged dog. He’s okay. I graduated as an architect in 1996 (FAUTL Lisbon Faculty of Architecture). I am also an authority on cat litter and will provide expert advice upon request.
Feel free to drop me a line to abarrigadeumarquitecto@gmail.com or meet me on Google+. I'm also registered on Twitter and Facebook but I don't use them as much.
