It's quite a lot,
To have lived through the swings.
The frenetic dance of closing the old year well.
It's enough,
The sweet hope
that the new one will begin in a restored state.
It's obligatory,
Festive movement,
sparkling cities
and artificial stars.
It's important,
Harmony, shining souls,
and children's eyes to shine
in the pupils of grown-ups.
It is of value,
To embellish thoughts,
To sweeten palates with dreams and other treats.
Gifts wrapped with golden bows.
It's a good thing,
Family together,
even on a single day.
At the meeting,
hands between outstretched hands,
in the fragile beauty of the instant.
And it costs!
We try too hard. We run too much.
We wait too long. We make too many mistakes.
Fortunately,
it costs and it changes.
Life is like the stars,
it has its own rhythm and movement.
Cyclical and mysterious
And change is slow,
It requires humility and courage,
Combining time with the reality that shapes us.
May patience be resilient,
And a faithful companion.
May worn-out illusions be exchanged
for authentic paths.
If you don't change completely,
Embrace yourself. And embrace.
Love yourself. And love.
Love life and all its imperfections.
The rest is just a backdrop.
The true and great spectacle
is the one you light up
when you shine inside yourself.
