People may show hope
I see through the calm
All towing on the centuries"


As cinco coisas de que as pessoas mais se arrependem

Depois de ler o artigo "As cinco coisas de que as pessoas mais se arrependem antes de morrer" relativo a um estudo de Bronnie Ware, registo com agrado os principais arrependimentos das pessoas com algumas anotações minhas:
- Quem me dera ter tido a coragem de viver de acordo com as minhas convicções e não de acordo com as expectativas dos outros (A saúde traz consigo uma liberdade de que poucos se apercebem que têm, até a perderem);
- Quem me dera não ter trabalhado tanto (uma reflexão principalmente dos homens que dedicaram a sua vida à vida profissional em detrimento da vida pessoal);
- Quem me dera ter tido coragem de expressar os meus sentimentos (medo? não, cobardia!);
- Quem me dera ter mantido contacto com os meus amigos (com a família são a base da vida);
- Quem me dera ter-me permitido ser feliz (fingir que se é feliz é um engano, procurar ser feliz depende de cada um).

Se hoje estivesse para morrer acho que não estaria angustiado ou arrependido com a minha vida. Segue em frente e vive! :)

Destiny

“Some say our destiny is tied to the land, as much a part of us as we are of it. Others say fate is woven together like a cloth, so that one’s destiny intertwines with many others. It’s the one thing we search for, or fight to change. Some never find it. But there are some who are led.” - Merida

Finally

Time marches on never ending,
time keeps its own time,
Here we stand at beginning,
and then goes passing us by,
And I, I, I can dream for us all,
I hope I'm in a better state,
When here and now crumbles and falls
and you, you , you who make worlds collide
I knew you'd come knocking one day,
unannounced like a thief in the night.

Where do we go from here,
time ain't nothing but time,
I now have no fear of my fears
And no more tears to cry,
tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow means nothing at all
If we don't hear the line,
when today places its call, and morning, morning, morning
Won't ever be the same,
now I won't make the same mistakes, time and time again (5x)

So tell me how do you do
Finally I meet you
You don't know what I've been through,
waiting and wondering about you
I had a dream my trip would end at you,
and now I know paradise.



O peso da insustentável leveza do ser

"O fardo mais pesado é também, ao mesmo tempo, a imagem do momento mais intenso de realização de uma vida. Quanto mais pesado for o fardo, mais próxima da terra se encontra a nossa vida e mais real e verdadeira é. Em contrapartida, a ausência total de fardo faz com que o ser humano se torne mais leve do que o ar, fá-lo voar, afastar-se da terra, do ser terrestre, torna-o semi-real e os seus movimentos tão livres quanto insignificantes. Que escolher, então? O peso ou a leveza? [...]

Sentiu um peso, mas não era o peso do fardo e sim da insustentável leveza do ser."

(Milan Kundera, "A Insustentável Leveza do Ser")

I am real from head to toe

Some people say that I'm too open 
They say it's not good 
To let them know everything about me 
And they say one day they will use 
Every little thing against me but
I don't mind maybe they're right 
That's just how it is
And I got nothing to hide.

I live my life the way I want
I got nothing to hide, nothing at all
Life is not a fairy tale
They should know that life is real.
I live my life the way I want,
I got nothing to hide, nothing at all
Life is not a fairy tale
Life is about more
'Cause life is real.

A friend of mine gave me an advice
He said 'be careful'
And think twice before you talk about your life
Protect yourself just keep quiet
The more they know the harder they try
To spoil your ways to spread lies
And even though I know he could be right
I just said I...

I live my life the way I want
I got nothing to hide, nothing at all
Life is not a fairy tale
They should know that life is real.
I live my life the way I want,
I got nothing to hide, nothing at all
Life is not a fairy tale
Life is about more
'Cause life is real.

Life is real...
Life is real...
Life is real...

Me I be "M" ogunmakin fear no foe
I am real from head to toe
Like life is real and you should know.
Me I be "M" ogunmakin fear no foe
I am real from head to toe
Just like my heart like my soul.




One day... the day is now

Sometimes I lay
Under the moon
And thank God I'm breathing
And pray
Don't take me soon
Cause i'm here for a reason

Sometimes in my tears I drown
But I never let it get me down
So when negativity surrounds

I know some day it'll all turn around"

One day this all will change
Onde day, my life will change.
And the day is now!

One Day - Matisyahu

Sometimes I lay
Under the moon
And thank God I'm breathing
And pray
Don't take me soon
Cause i'm here for a reason

Sometimes in my tears I drown
But I never let it get me down
So when negativity surrounds
I know some day it'll all turn around
Because
All my life I've been waiting for
I've been praying for
For the people to say
That we dont wanna fight no more
There'll be no more wars
And our children will play

One day

It's not about
Win or lose
Because we all lose
When they feed on the souls of the innocent
Blood drenched pain
Keep on moving though the water's stay raging
In this maze you can lose your way (your way)
It might drive you crazy but dont let it phase you no way (no way)

Sometimes in my tears I drown
But I never let it get me down
So when negativity surrounds
I know some day it'll all turn around
Because
All my life I've been waiting for
I've been praying for
For the people to say
That we dont wanna fight no more
There'll be no more wars
And our children will play

One day

One day this all will change
Treat poeple the same
Stop with the violence
Down with the hate
One day we'll all be free
And proud to be
Under the same
Singing songs of freedom

One day

All my life I've been waiting for
I've been praying for
For the people to say
That we don't wanna fight no more
There'll be no more wars
And our children will play

One day...
