Again... Another day with almost no "Noise", please forgive me π As more and more families arrive from Brazil, ppl with only one suitcase and a lot of dreams, they encounter a Portugal with no houses available and few jobs We're facing a disaster, ppl with no roof and no food will turn to the "easy" path... And we don't want our peaceful Portugal turned into another Brazil Cold days are here, the best we can do is provide and organize warm clothes as we look for houses and stable jobs It's not easy, people need safety and the minimum needs, things like cutlery , blankets, sheets, beds, fridges, pillows.... Everything, from the big to the smallest, at least till they don't find jobs, my heart breaks when we run off of things to donate, we're all going home, looking for whatever we can spare, anything /everything is better than nothing How desperate ppl most be to leave everything and take this crazy leap of faith They dream of a job so that they can get their children here.... My heart breaks constantly every day With war in Ukraine getting worse, what will we have to help them?? Currently at the football practice, here all children play, even the ones that will sleep on the floor tonight

It is unfortunate, my sister, for how long will we remain puppets in the hands of rulers and leaders and their disputes that destroy homelands, people and dreams
Yes, that's what I feel too, we're nothing but puppets in the hands of heartless "Leaders" that care nothing but for themselves π
All we xan dinid to pray that the war will stop and the leaders will findd peace
I believe in the Power of prayer, but I also believe in the power of greed, we have to act and help because the supposed "Leaders" just care about themselves π£
Oh, I have no idea what's happening in Brazil now Ate. But, yap, we don't want our country to experience what they are experiencing now.
Corruption, violence, extreme poverty... Ppl can't live like this, sending your kids to school not knowing if you'll ever see them again, gangs just pass in the car and shoot everyone, including children... It's very hard. Some of this Brazilians are doctors and engineers, here they take on any jobs, but they live at peace
These really hinders everyone from achieving peace. I hope and pray that these will soon end
Wishing for the better to come.
So do I, my brother. One can't be truly happy while another is hurting π£
