THE ORIGIN

The day before I wrote Lágrima I remember reading these lines in Paulo Coelho's Aleph: "Words are tears that have been written down. Tears are words that need to be shed. Without them, joy losses all its brilliance and sadness has no end."

It was a couple of months after I left an easy living life as a packaging designer, urged by the intimate desire to tell more than what could ever be held within the four corners of my labelling stuff. These lines were Paulo's particular way to tell me that Lágrima deserved to be written.

And so I did...
