Não sou uma pessoa consumista. Não compro o que não preciso, e mesmo o que preciso é sempre o suficiente, sem sobras supérfluas. Por isso, não sou também de acumular, nem de lamentar perdas, principalmente, de coisas. Porém, confesso que algumas coisas, ainda que sem valor, às vezes as mantenho pelo valor afetivo: desenho de filhos, quando pequenos, lembrancinhas feitas por eles na escolinha, dos netos, enfim, miudezas que me comprazem.
Ontem, recebi de uma pessoa que mora sozinha e, por isso, mudou-se para um apartamento menor do que aquele em que estava, algumas louças, cuidadosamente embaladas em várias folhas de jornal, dispostas em duas sacolas. Ocorre que, durante o transporte das duas sacolas para o meu apartamento, ao efetuar a curva no corredor, em direção ao elevador, uma das sacolas bateu na parede do prédio, emitindo, imediatamente, o som de louça quebrada.
Ao abrir, com cautela, cada peça enrolada no jornal, cujo conteúdo eu desconhecia, fui conferindo que nada estava danificado: copos e taças, nem com a mínima lasca. Porém, uma peça maior, muito bem embalada, estava separada da sua parte, também bem acondicionada. A peça redonda, grande, afunilava-se um pouco na borda: é uma compoteira. A última peça que abri, pelo barulho, percebi que, ali ocorrera a quebra. Era a tampa da compoteira. Na hora, pensei: tantos copos, quase dez; também as taças em maior número, e, justamente, apenas uma peça, mais bem embalada do que a própria compoteira que é maior, foi a que quebrou. Resolvi colocar a compoteira na mesinha da sala já imaginando que providenciaria um belo arranjo para compô-la.
Uma hora depois, ao abrir o armário da cozinha para retirar um copo, chama-me atenção uma tampa de vidro, também transparente e do mesmo material que a compoteira recém-adquirida. Ao ver o círculo da grande compoteira repousada na mesa e o tamanho pequeno da tampa, agora em minhas mãos, achei que dificilmente ela me seria útil para tampá-la.
Ainda na cozinha, lembrei-me da longínqua origem daquela tampa.
Há 38 anos, ganhei, de casamento, uma bomboniere redonda que se compunha de três andares de louças sobrepostas, fechadas por aquela tampa, que ficava sobre o meu buffet com guloseimas para crianças, que eu ainda não tinha.
Certo dia, uma pequena, na faixa de 3 anos, com o seu curto bracinho, tentando alcançar um bis, derrubou a compoteira que se estilhaçou, sobrando, apenas, em cima do buffet, a tampa intacta.
Ao recolher os cacos, minha mão alcançou a tampa que, visivelmente sem nenhuma lasca, tive pena de colocá-la entre os estilhaços. Pensei: por que ela haverá de ir para o lixo? Não tem nada que a condene…Confesso que achei que seria injusto e um desperdício colocá-la no lixo.
Durante todo esse tempo, cada coisa que se quebrava, nada chegava nem perto para que a tampa guardada servisse de reposição. Muitas vezes, pensei em passá-la para frente juntamente às doações que sempre fiz de vasilhames e louças, mas pensava: o que farão com uma simples tampa de vidro? Fosse o pote, ainda teria utilidade, mesmo sem tampa, mas a tampa sozinha não serve para nada.
Recentemente, há dois anos, após a minha separação, quase passei, novamente, a tampa para frente junto a muitas coisas que doei. Entretanto, guardei-a novamente.
Observo atentamente a compoteira que parece me convidar a aproximar-me. Vejo-a de baixo para cima: larga, subindo em uma altura aproximada de 10 cm…, porém, próximo à borda, percebo que se afunila um pouco.
Com a tampa na mão esquerda, quase que em câmara lenta, vou descendo-a sobre a compoteira e, para o meu espanto, a tampa se encaixou.
Ninguém diria que não pertencia à compoteira: o mesmo material, a mesma cor, era realmente de impressionar.
Concluí: às vezes, alguns relacionamentos se quebram durante a nossa vida e sentimos que o vazio não há de ser preenchido um dia.
Mas eis que a “tampa”, guardada, às vezes, por muitos anos, aparece para nos preencher….
Whoa tons of valuable advice.
Please let me know if you’re looking for a article writer for your site.
You have some really good articles and I feel I would be a good asset.
If you ever want to take some of the load off, I’d love
to write some content for your blog in exchange
for a link back to mine. Please send me an e-mail if interested.
Thank you!
First of all I would like to say terrific blog!
I had a quick question which I’d like to ask if you don’t mind.
I was curious to find out how you center yourself and clear your head
prior to writing. I’ve had a tough time clearing my
thoughts in getting my thoughts out there. I truly do enjoy writing but it
just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes are generally lost
just trying to figure out how to begin. Any suggestions
or hints? Appreciate it!
Hi there every one, here every person is sharing such familiarity, therefore it’s fastidious to read this weblog, and I used to visit this
webpage everyday.
Hmm is anyone else encountering problems with
the pictures on this blog loading? I’m trying to find out if its a problem on my end or if it’s the blog.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
I am really happy to read this website posts which includes plenty of valuable data, thanks for providing such
data.
Hmm it appears like your site ate my first comment (it was
extremely long) so I guess I’ll just sum it up what I submitted and say, I’m thoroughly enjoying your blog.
I too am an aspiring blog writer but I’m still new to everything.
Do you have any tips for beginner blog writers? I’d definitely appreciate it.
Hey there would you mind stating which blog platform you’re working with?
I’m looking to start my own blog in the near future but I’m having a tough time selecting between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and
Drupal. The reason I ask is because your design seems different then most
blogs and I’m looking for something unique.
P.S Sorry for getting off-topic but I had to ask!

Unquestionably imagine that that you said. Your favourite justification appeared to be at the net the simplest
factor to bear in mind of. I say to you, I certainly get
irked while other folks think about issues that they just don’t recognise about.
You controlled to hit the nail upon the highest and defined out the entire thing without having side effect , other people could take
a signal. Will likely be again to get more. Thank you

an established blog. Is it difficult to set up your own blog?

Hello there! Quick question that’s totally off topic.
Do you know how to make your site mobile friendly? My site looks weird when viewing from
my apple iphone. I’m trying to find a theme or plugin that might be able to resolve this problem.
If you have any recommendations, please share. Thank you!
Since the admin of this website is working, no uncertainty very rapidly it will be well-known, due to its quality contents.
A fascinating discussion is definitely worth comment.
I do think that you should publish more on this subject matter, it
may not be a taboo subject but typically folks don’t speak about these subjects.
To the next! Kind regards!!
Today, I went to the beach with my children. I found a sea shell and gave it to my 4
year old daughter and said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.” She
placed the shell to her ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear.
She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is completely off topic
but I had to tell someone!

Excellent site you have here but I was wanting to
know if you knew of any community forums that cover the same topics talked about here?

experienced people that share the same interest.

I know this if off topic but I’m looking into starting my

problem.
Với nhiều kênh liên hệ chính thức cực kỳ đa dạng, mọi

This is the right web site for anyone who would like to

You certainly put a brand new spin on a topic that’s been written about for

Amazing! This blog looks exactly like my old one!
It’s on a entirely different topic but it has pretty much the same layout and design. Excellent choice of colors!
My partner and I stumbled over here different web page and thought
I should check things out. I like what I see so i am just following you.
Look forward to going over your web page yet again.
Hey! I know this is kinda off topic but I’d figured I’d ask.
Would you be interested in exchanging links
or maybe guest authoring a blog post or vice-versa?
My blog discusses a lot of the same subjects as yours and I feel
we could greatly benefit from each other. If you’re interested feel free to send me an e-mail.
I look forward to hearing from you! Wonderful blog by the way!
I think everything posted was actually very reasonable. However, what about this?
what if you added a little content? I ain’t suggesting your content is not good, but suppose you added
a title that grabbed folk’s attention? I mean O ENCAIXE
| Conversa Literária – por Fátima Soares is kinda plain. You could
glance at Yahoo’s home page and watch how they create post headlines to get viewers to open the links.
You might add a video or a pic or two to grab people excited about what you’ve got to say.
In my opinion, it could make your posts a little bit more interesting.
