Art by Mariana Crottollini (Argentina)
The heart that dares to do it and knows that he could have died trying.
by Guillermo Cides
We are guided by ignorance. The lack of certainties. We are driven by the desire to believe. To know. To understand. There is nothing more lonely than a question that has not been understood. A random answer. Ignorance in gala dress. Confusion drives us forward. The doubt. The step that is not daring but that we take. We are guided by ignorance. And the bravery. Surprise invites us to move forward. What was not going to happen but finally happened. We are guided by the hunger to know. To understand. We are the brave cowards at the end of the book. Those who dare. Those who decide. Those who know at the last minute that this life is played in an instant. When we understand that it has to be done. That must be decided. Then our soul guides us. Our heart. The bravest of all. The heart that dares to do it and knows—as the heroes of the books know—that he could have died trying. But he lived. He lived to know.
To Queralt.
G.C.
