Emotional

After a day of resistors, ohms, and existential thought my head was swimming. By chance, a pre-ordained chance? I came across this song. Solo le pido a dios. I only ask of God.

I am not religious, but this song almost brought me to tears. First I heard it in Spanish and only understood a few words here and there. Then I translated it. And then I found a translated version.

Sólo le pido a Dios
I only ask of God
que el dolor no me sea indiferente,
That i am not indifferent to the pain,
que la reseca muerte no me encuentre
That the dry death won’t find me
vacío y solo, sin haber hecho lo suficiente.
Empty and alone, without having done the sufficient.


This is the first verse and I don’t know why, but it hit home.
Here is another verse.


Sólo le pido a Dios
I only ask of God
que la guerra no me sea indiferente,
That i am not indifferent to the battle,
es un monstruo grande y pisa fuerte
It’s a big monster and it walks hardly on
toda la pobre inocencia de la gente.
All the poor innocence of people.


I can learn how to paint, draw, and sculpt. I can learn code, design, and processing. I can create and I can empathize. And I only ask of GOD and all that is beyond comprehension that I never stop. I am not indifferent to the battle, I fight it everyday, and I hope through unspoken words, we join together, and fight for our future.
