La salida a los problemas

 

Ayer hice el primer directo en mi canal. Siento no habéroslo avisado, pero fue una decisión que tomé sobre la marcha. La verdadera razón era que sentía deseos de entrar en contacto con vosotros: lectores y oyentes. Os aseguro que fue eso.

Haré alguna conexión más. El único modo de que os enteréis es que os suscribáis al canal, incluso si ya lo habéis hecho, ya que a veces Youtube no avisa si uno se suscribió hace tiempo.

Pero hago propósito de que si me voy a conectar, lo avisaré por aquí un rato antes. Los que estáis suscritos a este blog recibiréis una notificación, me imagino. El post lo replicaré por twiter y facebook si estáis suscritos a esas plataformas.

Pienso que esto de los directos puede ser un modo bonito de entrar en contacto de otro modo. Pero seguiré poniendo una charla en mi canal cada semana, como hasta ahora; Dios mediante.

Hoy he dado un largo paseo con un clarinetista. Hemos acabado cenando una hamburguesa y unos sandwiches en un VIPS.

La reunión que, en el Kremlin, ayer, tuvo Putin con sus ministros fue en una sala desproporcionada.

Basta ver esas escenografías (y otra más con sus ministros hace más días) para darse cuenta de que en su psicología se ha producido un cambio. Ya no oculta la propia consideración de su grandeza.
