(UFPE - 2003)

Seu destino é crescer.

Nosso turismo já é um produto de exportação com prestígio no mundo inteiro.
Antes, para o resto do mundo, éramos apenas o país do Carnaval e do futebol. Isso há muitos anos. Agora é diferente, agora o país tem rumo. Com o PNMT - Programa Nacional de Municipalização do Turismo -, mais de 1.200 cidades turísticas estão sendo preparadas para que se tornem melhores para os turistas e para quem vive nelas. Treinamos e capacitamos mais de 500 mil profissionais, nas diversas áreas ligadas ao turismo em todo o Brasil. Leis do tempo do Império foram atualizadas, abrindo novos horizontes, principalmente para o turismo marítimo. Só em 2001 tivemos 30 dos maiores transatlânticos do mundo navegando pelo nosso litoral. Com o cenário brasileiro modernizado e mais atraente, de 2 milhões passamos para 5 milhões de turistas estrangeiros recebidos anualmente. O turismo traz os benefícios de um maravilhoso produto de exportação, ajudando a combater nossas dificuldades sociais com a geração de mais emprego, mais renda e divisas para o país.

Eu te amo

Ah, se já perdemos a noção da hora,
Se juntos já jogamos tudo fora,
Me conta agora como hei de partir...
Se, ao te conhecer, dei pra sonhar, fiz tantos desvarios,
Rompi com o mundo, queimei meus navios,
Me diz pra onde é que inda posso ir...
(...)
Se entornaste a nossa sorte pelo chão,
Se na bagunça do teu coração
Meu sangue errou de veia e se perdeu...
(...)
Como, se nos amamos como dois pagãos,
Teus seios inda estão nas minhas mãos,
Me explica com que cara eu vou sair...
Não, acho que estás só fazendo de conta,
Te dei meus olhos pra tomares conta,
Agora conta como hei de partir...

(Tom Jobim - Chico Buarque)

(UFMG - 2003)

The Bug is Back

Health authorities defeated dengue decades ago by vanquishing the mosquito that spreads ²it. Then why were half a million Brazilians sick this past summer?

It's not a pretty sight. The Aëdes aegypti mosquito, which spreads dengue and yellow fever, was eradicated decades ago. But the ¹bug is back with a vengeance. It gave Brazil a dengue epidemic. Scientists now say the worst is yet to come. Why is nothing being done?

Brazil is a case study of how badly things went awry. Twice the aggressive ⁴mosquito battalions had freed Brazilian territory of Aëdes aegypti in 1955 and again in 1973. But these were the days of an ambitious military regime in Brazil, which had bigger things than bugs on its agenda. Instead of diligently tracking the disease, the generals poured money into highways, power plants and winning the Amazon frontier. When the dengue mosquito resurfaced, in 1976, Brasilia reacted swiftly – to hush it up, under the cloak of national security.

The generals are gone now, but the government continues to botch opportunities. There is no mystery, scientists say, to eradicating dengue: destroy the mosquito and ³its eggs , and the virus cannot prosper. Yet spraying is rarely done, except after an epidemic has hit. "No one bothers with disease control until people start going to the hospital," says Hermann Schatzmayr, head of virology at Rio's Oswaldo Cruz Foundation. Aëdes aegypti is now at home in 3,700 counties, including 60 percent of Brazil, and increasingly resistant to pesticides.

Newsweek, June 17, 2002. p. 40-41.

Traveling

To some extent, traveling entails fantasizing. We dream of finding someone interesting away from vigilant neighbors, from family control, from our own self-criticism. There is nothing necessarily [5] wrong with that fantasy nor with its realization. Now traveling is more rewarding, much more complex than that.

It means coming out of hiding, getting out of the rut, looking around ourselves, seeing the world, [10] opening our minds to new dimensions of human existence. At a certain moment in our life, that may include an opening to new relationships, seen as rewarding experiences. On the other hand, traveling may develop our ability to stay alone, to face up to our fears, to meet the unknown head on, without turning to others for safety. It means being able to survive without old habits. While [15] traveling for pleasure, a workaholic may feel the same withdrawal symptoms that plague those who cease to take addictive drugs. Traveling tests and helps develop our independence. It makes us feel that the ground under our feet is within ourselves, not outside.

Getting in touch with another culture also elicits fantasies involving [20] "the stranger". Foreigners evoke many different emotions. One of them is the magic that surrounds someone from a distant, mysterious world. Only everyday-life can disentangle reality from magic. Yet, magic and enchantment do have a place in life.

In a sense, traveling distinguishes us from reptiles. Alligators, for instance, [25] are intent exclusively on survival; they never leave their territory, they never relinquish safety and protection. Merely surviving is not enough for us humans. We want to live, and that sometimes entails going out to distant places in search of adventure. Traveling, like any other human experience, may provide an opportunity to prepare even for death. If we succeed in coming out of [30] hiding and living in different environments, perhaps we will be less disturbed when our body no longer is part of our luggage and only our essence departs for the great adventure. Traveling is being confident about the fact that our life can be lived wherever we are.
