El derecho de soñar – Eduardo Galeano
por pato,
a las 10:49 pm
Boletines
Vaya uno a saber cómo será el mundo más allá del año 2000. Tenemos una única certeza: si todavía estamos ahí, para entonces ya seremos gente del siglo pasado y, peor todavía, seremos gente del pasado milenio.
Sin embargo, aunque no podemos adivinar el mundo que será,
bien podemos imaginar el que queremos que sea. El derecho de soñar no figura entre los treinta derechos humanos que las Naciones Unidas proclamaron a fines de 1948. Pero si no fuera por él, y por las aguas que da de beber, los demás derechos se morirían de sed.
Deliremos, pues, por un ratito. El mundo, que está patas arriba, se pondrá sobre sus pies:
En las calles, los automóviles serán pisados por los perros.
El aire estará limpio de los venenos de las máquinas, y no tendrá más contaminación que la que emana de los miedos humanos y de las humanas pasiones.
La gente no será manejada por el automóvil, ni será programada por la computadora, ni será comprada por el super-mercado, ni será mirada por el televisor.
El televisor dejará de ser
el miembro más importante de la familia,
y será tratado como la plancha o el lavarropas.
La gente trabajará para vivir,
en lugar de vivir para trabajar.
En ningún país irán presos
los muchachos que se nieguen
a hacer el servicio militar,
sino los que quieran hacerlo.
Los economistas no llamarán
nivel de vida al nivel de consumo,
ni llamarán calidad de vida
a la cantidad de cosas.
Los cocineros no creerán
que a las langostas les encanta
que las hiervan vivas.
Los historiadores no creerán
que a los países les encanta
ser invadidos.
Los políticos no creerán que
a los pobres les encanta
comer promesas.
El mundo ya no estará en
guerra contra los pobres,
sino contra la pobreza, y la
industria militar no tendrá más
remedio que declararse
en quiebra por siempre jamás.
Nadie morirá de hambre, porque nadie
morirá de indigestión.
Los niños de la calle no serán
tratados como si fueran basura,
porque no habrá niños de la calle.
Los niños ricos no serán tratados
como si fueran dinero,
porque no habrá niños ricos.
La educación no será el privilegio
de quienes puedan pagarla.
La policía no será la maldición
de quienes no puedan comprarla.
La justicia y la libertad, hermanas
siamesas condenadas a vivir
separadas, volverán a juntarse, bien
pegaditas, espalda contra espalda.
Una mujer, negra, será
presidente de Brasil y otra mujer,
negra, será presidente de los
Estados Unidos de América.
Una mujer india gobernará
Guatemala y otra, Perú.
En Argentina, las locas
de Plaza de Mayo serán
un ejemplo de salud mental,
porque ellas se negaron a olvidar
en los tiempos de la amnesia
obligatoria.
La Santa Madre Iglesia corregirá
algunas erratas de las piedras
de Moisés. El sexto mandamiento
ordenará: “Festejarás el cuerpo”.
El noveno, que desconfía
del deseo, lo declarará sagrado.
La Iglesia también dictará
un undécimo mandamiento,
que se le había olvidado al Señor:
“Amarás a la naturaleza,
de la que formas parte”.
Todos los penitentes serán
celebrantes, y no habrá noche
que no sea vivida como si fuera
la última, ni día que no sea vivido
como si fuera el primero.
