The Gini coefficient is a measure of inequality of a distribution. It is defined as a ratio with values between 0 and 1.

Brazil and Guatemala are about a 0,6. Not so good. I know that. I see it, I feel it, I live it.

And even if I feel like I do, today I was so surprised when this figure became more real by a simple nice comment. I had to go somewhere and parked my car in a private parking lot. I asked the guy who gave me the ticket for some directions. When I got back I payed him and thanked him. For doing nothing but that, the guy said to me:

"I would like to congratulate you for being so nice. It's so hard to meet someone of your social condition as kind as you are. It was so nice to meet you."

Mmmm. Although the comment was meant to make me feel good, it didn't. It made me sad.

I will post some photos and comments on my fabulous holidays soon!

A New Year! A new start? SURE, if you want to. I love that every January 1rst feels like a fresh beginning somehow. At least that's the way I choose to look at it. Loooooove it.
