Who is inside the coffin? you will be surprised with the contrast of two realities
To maintain the suspense, I will say who it is at the end of this writing. The question (Who is inside the coffin?) obviously is allusive to the attached photo, in order to show a coffin that contains the body of a person of very high relevance worldwide and that many of you, dear readers, do not know who he is. I am struck by the fact that the coffin is extremely simple in its manufacture, without ornaments or aesthetic details: six cut-to-size boards, armed like a simple drawer with their respective side handles.

Un tanto para mantener el suspenso, diré de quién se trata al final de este escrito. La pregunta (¿Quién está dentro del ataúd?) obviamente es alusiva a la foto adjunta, a propósito de mostrar un ataúd que contiene el cuerpo de una persona de muy alta relevancia a nivel mundial y que muchos de ustedes, amigos lectores, ignoran quién es. Me llama la atención que el ataúd es de fabricación sumamente sencilla, sin adornos ni detalles estéticos: seis tablas cortadas a la medida, armadas como un simple cajón con sus respectivas asas laterales.
It is worth saying, however, that I was not in my mind to write about funerals, but when I delved into the origin of this photo, I felt the concern to contrast that type of manufacturing with those traditionally made in countries like Venezuela, where designs They abounded in details and were even manufactured with the best wood. That was done before the current crisis. I would say that the Venezuelan somehow gave his loved ones, as a last gift, the best quality coffin. That was possible in terms of purchasing power.
Now, the current situation in Venezuela almost makes it impossible to buy a quality casket at the time of giving a family member a Christian burial. Then I remembered that these days I have seen through social networks that people say that the deceased are being buried in drawers made of "old showcase", to cite an example; and there are those who affirm that the death of the deceased has been reached directly in the subsoil without an urn.
The situation, from this point of view, has become inhuman in my country: bad politics has destroyed everything.

When thinking about the existence of God and based on the aspect of humility that should always be present in our hearts, the attached photo led me to conclude that I do not care if death visits me and for my body, which must be matter that will be transformed into energy for a trip with uncertain destination, there will be no more than a simple drawer made with six tables.
The man inside the box is nothing more and nothing less than ALBERT EINSTEIN.
I say goodbye with a big hug until the next installment.
