Se sei a terra non strisciare mai; If you're down, don't ever crawl
se ti diranno: sei finito, non ci credere; If they say you: you're done/finished, don't ever believe it
devi contare solo su di te; You must rely only on you
Uno su mille ce la fa; One in a thousand do/stand it
ma quanto è dura la salita; and how hard it's the climb/exit
in gioco c’è la vita; at stake it's the life
Il passato non potra; What's done it's done, it could never
tornare uguale mai; be the same again
forse meglio perché no, tu che ne sai;maybe it's better, why not, what do you know about it
non hai mai creduto in me you've never believed in me
dovrai cambiare idea; but you'll have to change your mind/idea
La vita è come la marea; Life is like the tide
ti porta in secca o in alto mare; it leads you on dry or on high sea
com’è la luna va; as the moon goes
Non ho barato né bleffato mai; I've never cheated, nor bluffed
e questa sera ho messo a nudo la mia anima; and this evening I stripped out my soul
ho perso tutto ma ho ritrovato me; I've lost everything but I've found myself
Uno su mille ce la fa; One in a thousand do/stand it
ma quanto è dura la salita; and how hard it's the climb/exit i
n gioco c’è la vita; life at stake it's the life
Tu non sai che peso ha; You don't know how much it weighs
questa musica leggera; this soft music
ti ci innamori e vivi ma ci puoi morire quando è sera; you fall in love and you live, but you can die when evening comes
io di voce ce ne avrei; I have voice, but not
ma non per gridare aiuto; to cry for help
Nemmeno tu mi hai mai sentito; You didn't even hear me
mi son tenuto il mio segreto; I've kept my secret
tu sorda e io ero muto; you were deaf and I was mute
Se sei a terra non strisciare mai; If you're down, don't ever crawl
se ti diranno: sei finito, non ci credere;If they say you: you're done/finished, don't ever believe it
finchè non suona la campana vai; keep on going until the bell rings

Anyway, about the Catholic church:
I realized at a young age that any major Religion (as an Institution) that affects every aspect of your life until your death ( or so they think) - is not a true Religion - man has corrupted religion for man's personal gain, power - EGO.
When the Catholic church defrocked thousands of priests recently - the Diocese did not notify the police - some of these former pedophile priests are 'out there' but with no "status" in the criminal database - so guess what's going to happen? Once a pedophile, always a pedophile - sorry, but I have seen so many of them, over the years, and they do not change - they simply get better at the Bait, the Lure, and the PRIZE (innocent children)

I have family in Ireland - some were placed in orphanages as children - during the 1800's and early 1900's , ok? Pedophiles have been a serious problem for the catholic church - you see, it had to do with property - Priests RAN the orphanages, with innocent children forced to work 16 hour days - there are many european countries still struggling with the aftermath of the Catholic priest Pedophile 'problem'....

1. the eldest son received all the land.
2. the second eldest became a priest - whether he wanted to or not -
the third born male and after - got nothing.
The females always received - take a guess - NOTHING...... She WAS property....... so she either married or became a NUN without a "calling" and go to AMERICA - just to get out of the male dominated EVERYTHING. Of course, now she still had to take orders from men, and could also abuse children if she felt like it - I know - I was one of those children.....
originally posted by: Susa133I have cousins in Ireland who are Roman Catholic priests and are good guys, but they say this has been an ongoing problem which the church has been hiding for over 400 years - in europe, Ireland, britain, etc... Yeah, the USA has only been around for less than 300 years and CATHOLICS were at the bottom of the religious barrel in the early 1900's in USA - this sickness has been 'hidden' for centuries... However, I have met many, many wonderful priests from many of the catholic orders - franciscans, Jesuits, Get in a debate with a Jesuit priest and your mind truly expands and almost explodes with their infallible LOGIC...
love ya, susa

No, this is a clear case of the pot calling the kettle black, enjoying it, profiting from it, and getting away with it big time.
