The video was like this but with movement and a song

You see a woman washing dishes. And apparently nothing is happening: it’s just a repeating movement of using the soap and the sponge on pots and plates. Note: dish soap ran out, so she uses hand soap.

But within this nothing-happening![IMG_2518](Error: File type not supported: IMG_2518.mov) , multiple series of operations are activated, it’s a highly dynamicIMG_2549 network. It can happen while listening to a song while washing dishes on the coldest day of the year: it’s a shifting from storing information to actively manipulating it. And without knowing. A process that involves an interplay between electrical signaling and chemical changes that reorganize the brain’s physical structure some called this: neuroplasticity. I call epiphany. Maybe. It’s also a moon kiss. A far and mysterious breeze coming from unknown places.

You see a woman washing dishes and listening to a song. And something is changing. It’s unknown and involuntary.

Song Busca Vida by Paralamas do Sucesso

Vou sair pra ver o céu Vou me perder entre as estrelas Ver daonde nasce o Sol Como se guiam os cometas pelo espaço E os meus passos Nunca mais serão iguais

Se for mais veloz que a luz Então escapo da tristeza Deixo toda a dor pra trás Perdida num planeta abandonado No espaço E volto sem olhar pra trás

No escuro do céu Mais longe que o Sol

Perdido num planeta abandonado No espaço

Ele ganhou dinheiro Ele assinou contratos E comprou um terno Trocou o carro E desaprendeu A caminhar no céu E foi o princípio do fim

Se for mais veloz que a luz Então escapo da tristeza Deixo toda a dor pra trás Perdida num planeta abandonado No espaço E volto sem olhar pra trás
