Era uma vez. . .
Foi assim que eu aprendi, desde criança, a ler as estórias infantis e posso garantir que esse procedimento foi o melhor possível.
Ja imaginaram começar a contar alguma estória sem inicia-la dizendo "era uma vez. . ." Pois é! Então, vamos ao que interessa, ou seja, vamos contar uma estória.
THE LIE CITY
Once upon a time. . .
That's how I learned as a child, reading children's stories and I can guarantee that this procedure was the best.
We imagined start telling some story starts without her saying "once upon a time..." Yeah! So let's get down to business, ie we will tell a story.
Antes devo informar que a palavra estória substitui a outra palavra comumente escrita como história - com " hi" o que significaria algo que realmente existiu, e não algo irreal ou inventada.
Depois de tal explicação, vamos ao que interessa.
Era uma vez. . . um garoto mentiroso, ou melhor aquele que jamais narraria algo que fosse verdade. Só mentiras. Ele gostava de falar sobre algo impossível de ter ocorrido, daí ser, na realidade, uma mentira.
Ninguém conseguia entender porque aquele "cara" gostava de mentir, e isso já acontecia há muitos anos, sem que alguém chamasse a atenção do mentiroso sobre o que narrava. Não sei se era temor de receber alguma resposta grossa em matéria de educação ou algo parecido e, com isso, ninguém arriscava a retrucar o que ouvia.
Alguns anos se passaram e o mentiroso continuava com as suas mentiras e nós, os estúpidos, continuavamos a ouvir sua estórias atrevidas ou loucas porque era impossível acreditar em qualquer uma delas.
O pior disso é que outras pessoas tornaram-se também mentirosas chegando a totalizar mais da metade da população.
Incrível! A minha cidade ganhou o apelido de a cidade da mentira e, assim todos nós, seus moradores, acabávamos de ganhar também o apelido ou a alcunha de mentirosos, Sabem lá o que isso significava para qualquer um de nós que nascemos ou vivemos naquela cidade.
Qual cidade? - Vocês perguntariam, jocosamente.
A da mentira - Eu responderia.
Ate' o nome daquele município foi motivo de um projeto político para a mudança do nome. Este foi aprovado e a cidade mudou de nome: Mentirolândia.
Com isso, outros habitantes pegaram a tal doença da mentira e só falavam e narravam mentiras. Que coisa!
Depois de alguns anos, eu encontrei, em Brasília, um outro habitante nascido na citada cidade e ele, agora era deputado federal, me confidenciou que iria apresentar um novo projeto para mudar novamente o nome da nossa cidade. Praticamente ele tinha garantido a votação da aprovação desse seu projeto.
Confesso que fiquei assustado com a idéia e perguntei qual nome que ele iria apresentar no seu novo projeto.
- Nova Mentirolândia!
Não entendi o porquê da palavra nova.
Ele me disse que era para dar mais ênfase na característica nata da nossa cidade.
Permaneci em silêncio, sem qualquer comentário.
O que vocês fariam se estivessem no meu lugar? Hein? Hein?
THE LIE CITY
Before I inform you that the word story replaces another word commonly written as history - with "hi" which would mean something that really existed, not something unrealistic or invented.
After this explanation, let's get down to business.
Once upon a time. . . a liar boy, or rather the one who never narrate something that was true. Only lies. He liked to talk about something impossible has occurred, there is actually a lie.
No one could understand why that "face" like lying, and this happened for many years, without someone to call the attention of lying about what he narrated. I do not know if it was fear of receiving some heavy response in education or something and, therefore, no one dared to talk back what he heard.
Some years have passed and still the liar with his lies and we, the stupid, we continued to hear his bold or crazy stories because it was impossible to believe in any of them.
The worst of it is that other people have also become untrue reaching more than half the total population.
Awesome! My city earned the nickname Lie city and thus all of us, its residents had just also earn the nickname or a nickname liars, there know what it meant for any of us who were born or lived in that city.
Which city? - You would ask, jokingly.
The lie - I would answer.
Ate 'the name of that city was cause for a political project for change of name. This was approved and the city changed its name: Mentirolândia.
Thus, other people got to such a lie disease and only spoke and narrated lies. What thing!
After a few years, I have found, in Brasilia, another inhabitant born in the said town and he was now Congressman, he confided that would present a new project to again change the name of our city. Practically he had secured the vote of approval of his project.
I confess I was frightened by the idea and asked what name he would submit in his new project.
- New Mentirolândia!
I did not understand why the new word.
He told me it was to emphasize the cream characteristic of our city.
I remained silent, without comment.
What would you do if you were in my place? Huh? Huh?
