is poignant to see anyone die. Moreover, logically, if it is a loved one. Equally dramatic have evidence only of his death, his lifeless body face. What makes anything was a hotbed of emotions and dreams, that is when a statue, the latest snapshot of life in an album that fit joys and sorrows, memories of all kinds. A final image that some prefer not to look, to retain only smiles and surprises, happy moments and stamps that come to mind on a recurring basis and we confirm that indeed we have every reason to love those around us. That is a tragedy, yes, but even more so not having the opportunity to ensure your dead, clinging to them in a last embrace you wish you were endless. It must be terrible to imagine a relative left in a ditch, stepped in an unknown grave, as a spoil. It simply denotes the emotion, the feeling of relief that is seen in families receiving remains resolved once the relevant grievance. And just for that, regardless of ideologies, demands and all disputes, deserves to value and work for the recovery historical memory, set a map of emotions. We are working
. Earlier today I had the sad privilege of giving their families the remains of a farmer missing for almost 74 years, with only 35 years old. Say, Primitivo Fernandez de Labastida was shot and buried along a road in the port of La Tejera, in the same place where he was found two and half months ago, thanks to the collaboration between our Department of Human Rights and the Aranzadi Society . Have taken more than seven decades of assumptions, rumors, anxiety and misunderstanding to see full circle, to celebrate the funeral of a restless man, fond of poetry, whom the same Miguel Hernández, after sharing cabin and talk on a trip, wrote a poem to be read in the communion of his niece. Just an anecdote, a light verse, a life cut short by the senselessness of war.
Moreover, the Governing Council yesterday approved the order of our Department for which grants are called "for activities and projects of recovery of historical memory aimed at establishing a framework for public recognition of those who were persecuted and sanctions were unjust convictions during the Civil War and Franco's dictatorship, by his defense of freedom and democratic values. " Aid, a simple grain of sand, they go, I'm copying "to entities in 2010 working in commemorative activities, research and dissemination of historical memory, encouraging the aspirations of reconciliation, coexistence and respect for human rights that exist in our society. "
I like to remember here, to highlight the importance of the initiative, if the news has also been buried under the vast amount of information that this world and its people generate, and swallow, every day.
