Não desisti.&lt;br /&gt;Obrigado F. por me teres dito que estava condenado ao fracasso. Eu estou a construir o sucesso.&lt;br /&gt;Obrigado A. por me teres dito que as pessoas da aldeia não chegam a nenhum lado. Já na altura eu estava onde tu nunca irias chegar pois as pessoas da aldeia sabem o que é "ganhar o pão".&lt;br /&gt;Obrigado M. por me teres mostrado que eu também perco. Aprendi como nunca mais perder.&lt;br /&gt;Obrigado JG por me tentares provar que as pessoas não se importam com ninguém. As pessoas não se preocupam contigo mas não precisas de tentar generalizar.&lt;br /&gt;Obrigado T. por me tratar de forma diferente. As pessoas tendem a rejeitar o que temem.&lt;br /&gt;Obrigado L. por cortar as asas aos bons. Eles agora são melhores pois superam as dificuldades.&lt;br /&gt;Obrigado C. por não me amares. Isso não significa que não sou passível de ser amado.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Obrigado a todos. Sem vocês eu nunca teria tido de provar nada e não estaria onde estou. Os que consegui contactar ou ter informações acabaram por não crescer nada. Assim, só posso deduzir que uma das duas:&lt;br /&gt;1) ou ninguém vos dificultou a vida suficientemente;&lt;br /&gt;2) ou simplesmente continuais a não valer nada.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Claro que podeis sempre tentar provar que estou enganado. Desafio-vos. ;)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2587793656309766441-974742748986068200?l=metalpolido.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2587793656309766441/posts/default/974742748986068200?v=2'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2587793656309766441/posts/default/974742748986068200?v=2'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://metalpolido.blogspot.com/2008/07/criana-revoltada.html' title='Criança Revoltada'/><author><name>Jorge</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty name='OpenSocialUserId' value='08600018337466120988'/></author></entry><entry gd:etag='W/&quot;C0EEQXc5cSp7ImA9WxdVEUQ.&quot;'><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2587793656309766441.post-4166834288943166124</id><published>2008-07-16T08:00:00.000+01:00</published><updated>2008-07-16T08:00:00.929+01:00</updated><app:edited xmlns:app='http://www.w3.org/2007/app'>2008-07-16T08:00:00.929+01:00</app:edited><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='pub'/><title>Os meus Tesouros</title><content type='html'>&lt;center&gt;&lt;object width="425" height="344"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/6I39Y21Spk0&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/6I39Y21Spk0&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2587793656309766441-4166834288943166124?l=metalpolido.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2587793656309766441/posts/default/4166834288943166124?v=2'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2587793656309766441/posts/default/4166834288943166124?v=2'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://metalpolido.blogspot.com/2008/07/os-meus-tesouros.html' title='Os meus Tesouros'/><author><name>Jorge</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty name='OpenSocialUserId' value='08600018337466120988'/></author></entry></feed>
