"The life course wraps everything.
Life is that: it warms-up, chills all,
Tighten everything and then loosen them,
it gets quiet suddlenly and then again gets up set.
What life ask us for is being courageous.
What God wants really it is to see we learning to be able
to be happy - happier - in the midst of happiness
and getting yet happier in the midle of sadness.
Life invents.
We started doing things, many times not knowing why to do so,
and since we lost the power to pursue that initial purpose - because life is a
collective work, it belongs to all, it is mixed and sauced by everybody.
The most important thing in the world is this: people are not the same, they are always changing, and
they are not finished up, but keep constatly changing, tunning themselves to each other.
To live is dangerous - or not, I do not know.
I do not know how to explain this sort of thing: one side is that whom feels, the other belongs to who makes feelings.
Sometimes, when we find a love that one day in past we despised, it hurts always our heart.
Whatever kind of few love is already a bit of health, a rest in the middle of this madness."
Excerpts from Guimarães Rosa, Brazilian writer, with my free translation.
