About El rito del mate...

vos sabés de qué hablo..
Una simple infusión, con un sabor inconfundible que, incluso si uno lo degusta seriamente, encuentra que no es rico. Tampoco feo: es sólo mate!

Pero aquí el quid del asunto. Hacete el distraído, te develará una gran verdad: el sencillo mate es nada más y nada menos que una demostración de valores:

Es solidaridad de bancar esos mates lavados porque la charla es buena; la charla, no el mate

Es el respeto por los tiempos para hablar y escuchar: vos hablás, que yo tomo y viceversa

Es la sinceridad para decir bien: -¡Basta... cambiá la yerba!

Es el compañerismo hecho momento...

Es el cariño para preguntar: -Está caliente, ¿no?

Es la modestia de quién ceba el mejor mate

Es la generosidad de dar hasta el final.

Es la hospitalidad de la invitación, ya sea en la alfombra de tela o de pasto.

Es la justicia de uno por uno.

Es la obligación de decir "gracias", por lo menos una vez al día.

Es la actitud ética, franca, leal de encontrarse sin mayores pretensiones que compartir un mate que... querido amigo, ahora vos sabés, no es sólo un mate...


¡Cuándo tomamos unos mates?

I'm afraid the 'about' did not come through the translator at all well. But the photo is a very nice still life, querida Alicia.:)

Usando un traductor te lo envío, espero puedas entenderlo!
The rite of the maté...

vos sabés of what I speak..
A simple infusion, with an unmistakable flavor that, even if one the degusta seriously, finds that it is not rich. Neither ugly: it is only maté!

But here the gist of the matter. Hacete the distracted one, you develará a great truth: the simple maté is nothing else and anything less than a demonstration of securities:

It is bancar solidarity those washed matés because the chat is good; the chat, not the maté

It is the respect for the times to speak and to listen: vos hablás that I take and vice versa

It is the sincerity to say well: - Coarse... cambiá the herb!

It is the companionship made moment...

It is the affection to ask: - Is it hot, not?

It is the modesty of who it feeds the best maté

It is the generosity of giving until the end.

It is the hospitality of the invitation, either in the cloth carpet or of grass.

It is the justice of one by one.

It is the obligation of saying "thank you", at least once up-to-date.

It is the ethical, frank attitude, loyal of being without more pretenses that to share a maté that... dear friend, now vos sabés, is not only a maté...

When do we take some matés?

Bonita composicion y interesante about del mate. Las dos fotos son lindas Alicia. Alison


Dave Arnold   {K:55672} 7/9/2007
LOL, Alicia. I have run your "about" though the translator and even some of the other comments. All you keep talking about is the "kills". I hope you are not going homicidal on us. Es no bueno. :)

I think what I am seeing is that you are saying this is a food garnish to put on your food for flavoring. I hope so.

Good job!

Dave

Alicia Popp   {K:87331} 7/18/2007
Tranquilo Dave!!!... no pienso matar a nadie!... sólo los pulgones de mis rosas...
El mate es una infusión, típica de países como Uruguay, Bolivia, Paraguay, Argentina
