Talking about your CD "Rzeźba dnia" you said "There's a woman, a wolf, a cat, and the present moment". What did you mean?
 
 
Life itself and its essence, intensity. Closeness to nature.
These animals are symbols of wildness inside us but they also represent a kind of symbiosis with nature what is able to open the doors of the most important aspects of life.
 
 
The intensity of life is present all the time in the animal world.
There is no procrastination in nature, there's no the idea that I will be happy if this, and this, and this happens.
There is the present moment, the moment which is important itself.
The subsequent moments will become important too but the future moments will destroy the preceding ones.
There won't be any recording left, reccurence is impossible, because time goes further and this will never change.
We are able to enrich our lives intensily experiencing things which are now and here.
Appreciating events and close people, things we create with them, relations, emotions, and our social context which gives us the chance of development.
It's obvious that everybody lives in other "context", some situations are difficult, but we have impact on our lives which is more strong than we think.
We are able to sculpt every of those days looking at them attentively, appreciating the things that happen
I used to have a tendency of complaining, I used to be a pessimist who pays attention to things that could be better, my unfulfilled wish list used to be an obstacle to happiness.
And I noticed (not at once, it was a long process) that there are things who can give us a feeling of intensity if we pay more attention to them.
We really need the intensity, it's the thing that we expect, to feel that we live.
There is no any situation that is 100% good except from small moments, there are always things we are dissatisfied of.
Our partners may not entirely reach our expectations, our works may not satisfy us at some concrete moments.
And feeding on hope that it will be better is a delusion.
Because we don't know how long we will stay alive, we don't know what will happen within our country, family, life, maybe there will be some illness or other missfortune that would turn everything upside down.
We know what happens in the world, we see what happens to our relatives, sometimes young people pass away, people in full strength, career, beauty, who seem to have everything they need.
There is no any situation that is 100% good although the modern, consumer world delude us that we can have beauty, wealth and happiness, everything at the same time.
Living in the countryside you can see that grass change from day to day, that springtime starts with bursting of buds what's amazing.
Having a child you see that every day brings you something new.
It's good to stop sometimes (like in my song "Czas M") and just check out what will happen. Stop for 5 minutes.
5 minutes longer drinking coffee on the porch, 5 minutes longer... For example I'm late for the bus, I'll wait calmly for the next one.
5 minutes longer lying in the bed at dawn. Whatever.
It's good to appreciate the close relations, everything they give us...  at the end of this lengthy monologue...
Emotions and relations are the most intense and important things in our lives, they create us.
