Walmor Chagas
Hi, guys!
This week the theme is WRINKLES in Take a Word. When I saw this theme it came
to my mind Brazilian actor and director Walmor Chagas, who (probably) took his
own life this week at age 82. He was a very beautiful talented artist who had
been living alone on a farm the last 20 years. I wonder if aging is harder for
these people who earn their living in front of the limelight.

Oi, pessoal! Esta semana o tema é RUGAS no Take a Word. Quando vi esse tema veio à minha mente o querido Walmor Chagas. Eu me pergunto se o envelhecimento é mais difícil para essas pessoas que ganham a vida na frente dos holofotes.
