Nobody told me:
Life is a parenthesis between two eternities,
A dance with the midnight,
Sometimes, just the moment,
My favourite moment for peace,
A moment of silence,
All to dream.
A.A.
Hear this song from @unkonfined and tell me it is not fire!
@idontknow_race "Anima primarily refers to the soul, life force, or inner self. Stemming from Latin, the term has distinct meanings depending on the context in which it is used" - Google
"Ánimo" - A special word commonly used in Spanish.
"Cheer up" does not translate its meaning. It is rather like "soul up".
Does your language have something similar?
Does meaning translate without rhymes?
Original:
De todo se conoce el punto de partida,
sabemos cuando las flores marchitan,
cuando la nieve se derrite y los mares se agitan,
Pero, ¿Cuándo la nada tomó la forma de nuestros propósitos?
¿Cuándo empezó este declive extenuante y melancólico?
Lujos y sedas nos rodean y dentro solo harapos,
elecciones que ahuecan estos trueques insensatos,
de lo más vital y poderoso nos alejamos,
esa capacidad ilimitada, ese potencial humano.
@QuoteJung Knowing nothing I'd say Carl Jung seems to have been the first that provided a term to differentiate and refer to as "your shadow" - this appears to be novelty in the field.
