Viitorul striga prezent

Zilele trecute am fost impreuna cu Adela in vizita la SOS Satele Copiilor, sa le cunoastem pe cele doua bune prietene Georgiana si Adelina. Le-am povestit cum functioneaza un blog, cum se scrie un articol si cum poti interactiona in scris cu cititorii. Si ca doua profesoare preocupate de lectia predata, am decis sa trecem la practica. Asa ca eu am compus impreuna cu Adelina acest articol, iar Adela cu Georgiana un alt articol, pe care il veti putea citi pe blogul adelapopescu.eu.

EN: A few days ago, Adela and paid a visit SOS Satele Copiilor, to meet with the two good friends Georgiana and Adelina. We told about how a blog works, how you write a post and how you can interact with your readers. And just like two teachers concerned about the lesson taught, we decided to put them to practice. So Adelina and I wrote this article together, and Adela with Georgiana wrote another one, which you can read on the blog adelapopescu.eu.

Adelina are 9 ani, este in clasa a III-a si invata foarte bine. Ea creste, împreună cu Georgiana, intr-una din casele din Satul SOS din Cisnadie. Sunt cele mai bune prietene. Asta inseamna ca au o trupa a lor, ca isi impart eugenia in pauze si ca isi spun una alteia de ce baiat le place, dar asta doar daca nu le place fix de acelasi. Au venit la Bucuresti special pentru aceasta intalnire, iar noi am vizitat SOS Satele Copiilor special pentru a le cunoaște.

“Stii ce e un blog?”

“Nu.”

“E ca un jurnal. Tu ai un jurnal?”

“Mda, am.” mi-a raspuns Adelina, mustacind, spunandu-mi din priviri ca nu am nicio șansă sa aflu ce scrie in el.

“Eh, blogul e tot un fel de jurnal, dar e unul deschis. Unul in care scrii despre ce iti place tie, știind că multa lume urmează să citească. E un mod de a împărtăși cu alții poveștile, pasiunile, visurile tale.”

Iar visurile Adelinei sunt mărețe. Mi-a lăsat câteva rânduri scrise, asa ca o sa le redau intocmai, ca sa aflati exact cum arată viitorul in mintea si sufletul ei:

“Eu imi doresc sa fiu un astronaut, ca sa vad ce este dincolo de nori si de soare. Vreau sa port un costum si o casca mare. Vreau sa fiu aproape de stele.”

Dar pentru ca aceste proiectii sa aiba sansa sa devina realitate, nu e suficient numai ca Adelina sa isi doreasca din tot sufletul implinirea lor. Ea, la fel ca Georgiana, la fel ca ceilalti copii care cresc in SOS Satele Copiilor, trebuie sa fie sustinuta de catre comunitate si trebuie sa aiba acces la educatie.

Tocmai de aceea, in aceasta perioada, SOS Satele Copiilor Romania deruleaza campania de strangere de fonduri  – VIITORUL STRIGA PREZENT! Obiectivul campaniei este sustinerea la scoala a celor aproximativ 200 de copii si tineri, care cresc in cele trei sate SOS. Pentru ca din lipsuri nu se nasc visuri, copiii trebuie sustinuti sa mearga la scoala, sa ajunga cineva in viata. Asa ca va invit sa cititi aici cum puteti sustine copiii fara familie sa mearga si anul acesta la scoala. Iar daca aceasta cauza vi se pare importanta, va invit sa distribuiti acest articol catre cat mai multi posibili donatori. E minunat sa intalnesti copii asa frumosi si inteligenti, care, desi au mult mai multe lipsuri decat altii in prezent, sunt extrem de optimisti cu privire la viitor. Mi-ar placea mult sa o reintalnesc pe Adelina peste ani de zile, studenta la facultate. Aviatie si astronautica? Cine stie….

EN: Adelina is 9 years old, goes in the third grade and is very good student. Together with Georgiana, she grows up in one of the homes from the SOS Villages in Cisnadie. They are best friends. That means they have their own music band, that they share snacks during breaks and that they tell each other which boy they like, unless they both like the exact same boy. They came to Bucharest especially for this visit, and we have visited SOS Satele Copiilor especially to get to know them. 

“Do you know what a blog is?”

“No.”

“It’s like a diary. Do you have a diary?”

“Yes, I do.” Adelina replied, telling me through her looks that I don’t stand a chance of finding out what she writes in it.

“Well, the blog is a kind of diary, but it’s an open one. One in which you write about what you like, knowing that a lot of people will read it. It’s a way of sharing your stories, passions, dreams with others.”

And Adelina’s dream are big. She left me a few written lines, so I will write them down, so you exactly know what her future looks like in her mind and soul:

“I want to be an Astronaut, to see what’s beyond the clouds and sun. I want to wear a big suit and helmet. I want to be close to the stars.”

But in order for these projections to have a chance of becoming reality, it’s not enough for Adelina to really want them to come true. She, like her friend Georgiana and the other children growing up in SOS Satele Copiilor, must be supported by the community and must have access to education.

That’s why, SOS Satele Copiilor Romania is running a fundraising campaign- VIITORUL STRIGA PREZENT! The campaign’s objective is keeping in school over 200 children and teenagers, who live in the three SOS villages. Because dreams aren’t born from destitution, children must be supported to stay in school, to make something of themselves. So I invite you to read more about how you can support children without families to go to school this year. And if you think this cause is important, i invite you to share this article with as many donors as possible. It’s wonderful to meet such beautiful and smart children, who, even though they are facing more shortges than others at present, are extremely optimistic about the future. I would really like to meet Adelina again in a few years, as a college student. Aviation and astronautics? Who knows…
