The lights twinkling in the distance, is it true that Bogotá is closer to the stars as says that stupid slogan, 'cause every time I see streets groove in the mountains glowing figures seem to rise and fall in each evening. I think the best way to see Bogotá from Monserrate but not from the lowest since the neighborhoods, from the most depressed in order to feel the reality of his people, the true reality of Bogotá.
Bogotá has borders citizens within its boundaries, borders are ideological, economic and cultural rights, certain types of people fleeing for years, those who have money and so-called "cradle" are fleeing from Teusaquillo reaching downtown, then north and even certain parts of Suba not want to face that reality, not wish to meet with its like Bogota, fleeing from harassment and do not want to be identified as wealthy people, are hiding to avoid attention . Others flee to the circumstances that this country offers that lost their stability or their family or moral, some who are terrified of their own city are the same ones who have money to do it and do not want to be reflected in the faces of their fellows and away decide to differentiate.
The new neighborhoods, cities themselves were once absorbed by the growing city and have no but to qualify for it, customs are diluted in time and are lost until we know more of them, but others are an amalgam of different cultures from other cities in Colombia are Afro-Colombians (enriched and blessed in many ways) , there are people from the Atlantic coast (happy and content), there Boyacá (so humble and proud of their land), are prairie (people strong and stout) are paisas (vibrant and vital), there are ethnic cultures various kinds (spirited and cling to their culture) and they are all one body in unison, facing the weaknesses and opportunities given Bogotá.
, sometimes hot, sometimes quiet, sometimes boiling fire mingled with bitterness that makes the streets literally burst of resentment and hatred are not unfounded and in place, is a city that preaches intolerance mutual respect, this is confused in their own words until you know where it comes from and where it goes. Like its inhabitants Bogota has varied streets, the streets are built with concrete, asphalt, pavers and others totally helpless, with dirt, mud or other material, but there will always be a place, a corner, a restaurant, a person that gives us a friendly hand, but be aware, we also Bogotá has a shadow and a blistering air that we may seize and cause damage that we had never felt.
Bogota may be a soup of disorders with many emotions, but always have to give him thanks for everything that gives us diversity in disturbances, in people, landscapes and care, all framed by beautiful mountains we are delighted with its beauty and reminds us that exists beyond cities and more people to go.
