medlar "Vice" by the green.

My "addiction" for peace green makes you go looking for a daily haven for my heart on any island plant located in this sea of \u200b\u200bcement that is Madrid.

may be the green area in my work,

where I take a snack 20 'walking and montadito 20' breathing consciously planted in the ground, feeling like a living thing, before returning to plunge into the gray machinery production system that provides me the economic sustenance. may also be that I snack on a tour of the Retiro, after immersion in the multiracial metropolitan

or Palomeras Linear Park;

the case is to enjoy the arrival of autumn with its colors and fruit,

despite the efforts of those responsible for the environmental area

and armored division, and start curbs, tree wells, benches and roads,

to sow grain and cement channels, not to water the trees but that the water falling on them and lead to the sewer. They have had the ecological idea of \u200b\u200busing thousands of blocks of pine to protect the trunks of the trees dry,

its roots not in the jaws mechanically and end up debris.

Then there are those crazy short people

and living his second childhood, living in a rebel town as Asterix, continue to enjoy life through the rule of brick and cement, without paying too much attention to prohibitions.

I look at the horizon and a gray haze of pollution floating on a sea of \u200b\u200bcement, iron and brick. Road a few meters and check job creation in the form of four American workers, an African and a Romanian, working on weekends. I think about the waste of people's money in bank profits and poverty in the world "less developed." attended the demonstration against poverty in front of banks (Cibeles a Sol), demanding that governments their promises. There people of all ages and social condition we protest against hunger and hypocrisy, in an atmosphere of light and shadow. Without the support of the media or the political and ecclesiastical power, I will act in the neighborhood for world peace and nonviolence, which I heard in the neighborhood association. There hear a child say, "This is fine, but in this neighborhood will not be possible." Why? Asked a woman working. "Because there are many thugs, even my school. " It seems we live in a thug world in which we see ourselves reflected in the debris left on dry land next to a concrete wall, which cruel metaphor of this civilization that is growing into chaos. In order to seek peace back to green for my lungs and heart, for my bodymind, walking, now with aromas of wet earth, this Linear Park, with the fierce hope that the knowledge of oneself and the search harmony with nature is a popular idea that leads to a better world.

Don Justo's Cathedral. A work of faith

"A work of faith. "With these words, Don Justo Gallego describes the monumental work that has been working for fifty years: A Cathedral dedicated to the Virgen del Pilar, in the village of Mejorada del Campo, east of the Community of Madrid, only 18 km from the center of their capital.

Mejorada del Campo is a small town of around 23,000 inhabitants, mainly dedicated to agriculture. Their crops are watered by the rivers Jarama and Henares. It was founded in the twelfth century, although the remains of lithic materials show that their town was inhabited in Paleolithic times.

On 20 September 1925, was born in Justo Gallego Martinez this location in the heart of a farming family. Of strong Christian faith, enters the age of 27 years in the Monastery of Santa Maria de la Huera, Soria, to devote himself to religious life. Is expelled to the sick with tuberculosis, for fear of contagion from the rest of the community and return to his hometown with the idea of \u200b\u200bbuilding a work for the offering to God.

Don Justo began building his cathedral in 1961, a work of faith dedicated to the Virgen del Pilar, Madre de Dios, using their own hands and starting from scratch, on land inherited from private their parents, "50 years ago." Don Justo has no knowledge architecture, nor has any formal training related to construction, could not even finish their primary education due to the onset of the Civil War. Planned his "reading ancient books of cathedrals, castles and significant buildings." There are no official project plans to do the work, "all in your head." Their inspiration is the Christian faith. She loves the Romanesque, so is the style that tries to apply more, but what other mezacla different Torreones reminiscent medieval castles, tall windows and most characteristic of the Gothic style, a dome "replica of the Vatican." With over 80 years, just working every day, alone or with the help of his nephews and potential volunteers. Rest on Sundays, but is close to the cathedral to welcome the curious visitors, addressing their questions, resolve your concerns, tell their stories. It is a nice, close, humble and hardworking.

Don Justo use recyclable materials discarded by nearby factories or given away. Finances its work through donations or by renting or selling land inherited from his family. Working without the support of the Catholic Church and no building permit by the City of Mejorada del Campo.

The cathedral is projected on a Latin cross and holds a area of \u200b\u200b4,000 square meters. It has three naves, covered by barrel vaults. In the central dome rises over 40 meters high construction half. A cathedral lacks nothing, has a 300 square meter crypt, sacristy, a cloister, 60-meter towers, bell tower, their platforms, ...

The interior of the cathedral is full of debris and construction materials piled in every corner, the walls are still unfinished and show sometimes broken bricks, placed haphazardly. Seems surprising how fragile the environment. Marvel that despite everything, the building remains standing. Be careful where to step on one, iron, tubes, bags ... everywhere things pile up.

Justo Gallego and cathedral were famososo in 2005 for participation in an advertisement of Aquarius refresh rates:
