on the skin also written
A young fair and courageous spirit well-tempered and face furrowed with deep scars fell in love with a girl as beautiful as frivolous. "If you tell me about dating you just have to take off those ugly scars of the face," he said indolent the beautiful girl to our troubled youth. And then I lost sleep because the condition required by his beloved sounded like a mantra in his head. One of those long sleepless nights, lying on a tree in the woods, watched as an old man stopped his cart pulled by a mule. Prepared a roast chicken, not to eat alone, because eating alone is always very sad, made a pass at his animal magic in a man.
Young, marveling at the strange powers, came to that was certainly a powerful wizard to ask him to remove those ugly facial scars. "No problem, it is very easy," said the old wizard. And as he passed his finger slightly by one of them could see that mark the history of facial and how the young, to defend their village, had fought valiantly against a Cossack saving and the lives of women and children. "Already, there is no scar, and of course, not you face the Cossacks, rather you hide behind some barrels." The young man understood that to remove the brands that had left him was life must also rectify past events that had originated. It was not made clear any other, rather he ran to meet his beloved and overcoming its immediate rejection, achieved his attention to tell in great detail every story that drew her face. "It ended to tell the origin of the last scar against the rabbi who married them." So ends this story.
This story, beautifully told, also part of an equally beautiful idea: that people have a history, a history that has shaped us and allows us to be who we are. Denying our past would be like denying ourselves. Another advantage of this successful album are the illustrations, which show the scars from the young but also among the foliage of the trees, the wood of the barrels and passing clouds, tiny points of many stories that are struggling to read and accepted. Thanks are
