Songs are part of and even describe our life at times. When we are sad, listening to a song can make us better or simply give us the space for feelings to be felt to the fullest; when we are happy, music has the power to enhance and also to spread our happiness. “Paciência”, by the singer Lenine, is a song that provides a deep reflection on the position of people in the face of the rush of days.
The composer portrays the haste that humanity is in, and many times we don't even know exactly where we want to go:
“While time accelerates and calls for haste,
I refuse, I make time for the waltz.”
If we stop to think, what's the point of accelerating the steps if life is so good to be lived calmly? “Doing time” can mean sitting on a bench in a city square and simply watching the movement of cars while everyone waits for conclusions and doesn't even live the processes. For everything there is a process. Being patient is a gift! “Patience”, by Lenine, is a profound song, which instigates us to question the space of time in which we simply watch time go by looking for answers to everything, without living the famous “present”!
“Is it time for you to realize? The life is so rare!"
Life is there to be lived. Time is precious. As much as the hours pass all the time, it's never too late or early, it's always exactly the right time to feel everything around you and value every second.
“The world goes faster and faster,
We expect from the world and the world expects from us.”
The cycles of life are infinite. While we expect something from the world and just wait, we are falling short in relation to our own being. We can so much, but so much! Being in a hurry and not enjoying every moment makes life's most precious details go unnoticed!
