A Questão Do Futuro by José F Castro - JFC (Petrus Castrus) published on 2020-04-03T10:42:39Z ** A QUESTÃO DO FUTURO ** Por muito negro que seja o livro do passado, o futuro é sempre uma página em branco... Se queres saber o que é o futuro, dou-te uma resposta inocente: É como um filho prematuro da gravidez que é o presente. Porque o presente sempre está com a barriga dilatada, sempre a parir um venho já, um porvir que ainda agora é nada. Convém agora meditar: Esse porvir, esse talvez, é tempo para nos libertar da nossa humana insensatez. Dá-me tua mão. Vamos dançar, que esse porvir, esse talvez, talvez nos traga um madrugar que leve as dores da gravidez. Penso que o mais que podemos fazer nesta curta vida é tocar com a mão que temos outra que esteja estendida. E, desse contacto breve, tentar extrair a verdade, um feixe de luz que leve ao fundo da eternidade. Here is an English translation: ** The Question of the Future ** No matter how dark the book of the past is, the future is always a blank page... If you want to know what the future is, I'll give you an innocent answer: It's like a premature baby of the pregnancy that is the present. Because the present is always with a dilated belly, always giving birth to an I'm coming, an upcoming that is yet still nothing. It is now worth meditating: This future, this perhaps, is a given time so we can get free of our human foolishness. Give me your hand. Let's Dance, because this future, this maybe, may perhaps bring us a dawn that will take away the pains of pregnancy. I think the most we can do in this short life is to touch with our hand another that is begging. And, from that brief contact, try to extract the truth, a beam of light that will takes us to the end of eternity.

And so very beautiful. 2023-10-21T11:09:59Z Comment by David Dunham Thought provoking lyrics framed in a beautiful song. Oh that we could be free of the hatreds and prejudices that haunt our past without forgetting what they look like so they are not imported into a future reality. A pipedream perhaps, but we have this moment of here and now... 2023-10-20T17:12:38Z Comment by Alan Hamilton A deeply profound lyric José beautifully delivered which shares my own simple sentiment of "living in the moment". Or as some would call it "mindfulness". Everything else has either passed or not yet occurred, as you sing about so eloquently. We seem to share far more than I first thought and it's a priviledge to know you my thoughtful and talented friend. 2023-09-26T07:12:43Z
