Life within a moment


Life is something we tend to messure, we usually think about and even regret at some point, but what's life?

I do see life like a lifelong bag of feelings, a simple line through time, a passing knife letting us scars and sorrows, a fresh breath of loving moments, a treat for madness, a whole world of what ifs, and at the end, a brief instant of chaos and order, of happiness and dispair, of hideouts and fears, of faith and courage.

We can try to manage the different elements surronding our lives, we can try deep and even harder each day, but life is, above all, an umpredictable mission, and we can't control its course or whether its train is taking us to.

People we may encounter, and if we get to know some of those people well, they will teach us and give us signals about what ways we could take, leave or keep tracing. Moreover, they will learn from us the same.

So, even if life is a mistery treasure, we can do something about it and play within that free exchange of knowledge with others in behalf of giving sense to this thing we call life and only maybe, we will be able to understand it better.

I guess then, life is just about people, about flesh and feelings, about skin and taste, about anger, hunger and pain, about not falling appart, about listening and not listening to each other, about the wildest nature in us... about you, about you and her, about us, about them... about you and me... about sharing life... within a moment.

Out of the game

Image
Rooms by the Sea , Edward Hopper (1951) We are all made of past, living a present towards a future that does not exist. But what about the moment, that every immediate breeze of air we take and leave behind... What's left behind, that's life, like the trace of a ship going nowhere, sometimes that's what we are, sailors in an ocean full of questions. What does make us choose some of our options? Do we sail the right or the wrong way? What really motivates our deepest feelings and why do we never, in so many cases, leave them go free... Sometimes we sail quite far from nature, but every time that nature comes closer, I see that trace more clear and most of my questions disappear. The need of nature in our lives is just a matter of the essence we are, a fact that's being supplied by our increasing condition of unconscious alienated piece lost from the chain, running fast and far, out of the game.

Stolen kisses

Stolen kisses are everywhere... As far as we can conceive sometimes we kiss more than we are aware of, not only by means of physical actions with the ones beside ourselves, among the routine and formal expectation, but again, sometimes we kiss more beyond our conscience. As forms of formal kisses we can understand a whole universe... but kisses may be presented under the shape of really intuitive, thin, weak or strong ways to let themselves show up to the ones confidentially addressed. We must have been created as human souls as far as human bodies and we might have overcome to the ability of possessing two types of languages inside our communicative code, one in line to what is expected, ready to show up, always on stage, but then... behind the scenes, lying in the obscure, another language more meant to free our spirits, a secret one we can use when needed although not always being capable of. So, according to that code, what type of kisses are more real to us, mo...

Overcoming yourself

Image
No way to turn back the ashes... Overcoming upon regret, once again and so systematically does not give you rest nor make you feel you can control the whole stage. Sometimes things just get a bit of a mess as far as you keep trying to change a situation, to fix the unfixable, but in that try hit only you result in trouble, only you result in pain and then things are still the same, with no changes, no rules to guide you in, because you did try it but not wish it really even if your so ignored heartfelt wish was there.  Controversy and fear are now welcome into the house of that conscience of yours, and that’s the first rule you disobeyed, and you know that was the pillar of life. Things can get thicker as you pass the way of rejection, assuming what you did not expect to assume at a first phase... but in that thickness of your mind you do not see an end or a beginning, and you keep sticking to that lost cause consuming every meaningful intention from inside. W e all want to f...
