One day
you're certain of how things will be
Then you're bewildered
And robbed of your glee
Hello and welcome to the Building A Memory. Here we care about music and their memories. Today I want to bring a song from one of my favourite bands that I already mentioned here. I made a video and text recommending this band’s first album. You can check it out later and understand why they changed my musical life.
A short reminder of who they are. The Reign of Kindo comes from the USA and they play something varying from rock to jazz. Their vocals are soothing and touching, and the lyrics talk about life (and its stages) and feelings we have towards a subject, like injustice, pop music, happiness, or sadness. The instrumentals sometimes are simple and sometimes not. Everything is sharp and precise, as it needs to be. Today’s song talks about life as a stage play.
One day
you're certain of how things will be
Then you're bewildered
And robbed of your glee
Every single person in the world has lived their life in a total surprised way. Even though plans are made, dreams are dreamt, there’s always that unexpected event happening which takes us from our traced route and, quite often, make us bewildered.
As the
curtains are drawn
The stage of your life revealed
But the script is now gone
Having that “to-do list” all messed up is complicated, but it isn’t the end of the world. Me, as a teacher, when my class takes a different route from what I planned, if I sit down and cry, students will flip out and neither sides will be benefited. Students won’t learn and probably I’ll be fired. The solution, sometimes, is learning how to improvise.
This is much less like a play and more like a grand ball
Differently from a sport or videogame, in life we can’t practice what we are going to do. Things need to happen, and you need to act. There’s no time to think if you want to dance along with the others: you’ve got to step forward and make the move.
Of course, I’m not saying here you’ve got to let life take you wherever the wind blows. Plans and dreams need to be written or thought about. The difference is: if you get unprepared for what happens next, do not freak out. Regardless the situation, we’ve got the ability to handle it (sometimes flawlessly, sometimes not).
This is what
happens when you realize you're not in control
Some days you'll bear the load
And others you won't
Finally, all our dreams and desires may be scripted, but we aren’t in full control of our lives. The “unplanned” will surely hit you. Some days it’ll be easier to carry on. Some days it won’t, and when this happens, take a time for yourself. Breathe in, relax, and try one more time. Just, please, don’t let it sink you into a deeper hole of sadness that you can’t get out. In any case of this happening, understand that there are friends and professionals ready to help you finding your way out of it.
