ŽIVOT

ŽIVOT JE REKA, NEKADA KRATKA, A NEKADA DUGA; NEKADA MIRNA, A NEKADA BURNA... ŽIVOT JE REKA SA MNOGO ĆUDI, PROLAZI KROZ CVETNE DOLINE OPIJENA MIRISOM CVEĆA, A ONDA LOMI NAJČVRŠĆE STENE DOK NE STIGNE DO SVOG CILJA, DA MIRNO ZAVRŠI SVOJ TOK.

TA REKA ŽIVOTA DOK TEČE, ĆUD NAM SVOJU NE OTKRIVA; IZNENADI NAS PONEKIM OPAKIM VIROM IZ KOGA NI NAJBOLJI PLIVAČI NE IZLAZE... MAMI NAS SVOJOM LEPOTOM I STAVLJA NA ISKUŠENJE, KAO ŠTO SIRENE SVOJOM PESMOM OPČINJUJU MORNARE. KO ZAKROČI U NJENE DUBINE NESPREMAN, NESTANE U NJENOJ TAMNICI ZAUVEK...

PLIVAM I JA REKOM TOM, ŠTO ŽIVOT SE ZOVE, A REKA POKUŠAVA DA ME SLOMI; NISAM MNOGO SNAŽNA I NE ŽELIM DA ME NEKI VIR ŽIVOTA POVUČE NA DNO... MNOGE SAM VIROVE ZAOBIŠLA, ALI SU ME MNOGI I DOTAKLI... NASTAVLJAM DALJE KROZ MIRAN TOK, GDE TALASI SU STALI I LEP DALJI ŽIVOT MI DALI.

LIFE IS A RIVER,

SOMETIMES SHORT, AND SOMETIMES LONG;

SOMETIMES PEACEFUL, AND SOMETIMES STORMY ...

LIFE IS A RIVER WITH MANY WONDERS,

PASSES THROUGH FLOWER VALLEYS

DRUNKED BY THE SMELL OF FLOWERS,

AND THEN HE BREAKS THE STRONGEST ROCK

UNTIL HE REACHES HIS GOAL,

TO COMPLETELY END ITS FLOW.

THAT RIVER OF LIFE WHILE IT FLOWS,

MIRACLE DOES NOT REVEAL IT TO US;

SURPRISE US WITH SOME WICKED SOURCE

WHO NOT EVEN THE BEST SWIMMERS DO NOT COME OUT ...

LURE US WITH YOUR BEAUTY

AND TESTS,

LIKE SIRENS WITH THEIR SONG

MUNICIPALS SAILORS.

WHO STEPS INTO ITS DEPTHS UNREADY,

DISAPPEARS IN HER PRISON FOREVER ...

I SWIM ALSO WITH THAT,

WHAT LIFE IS CALLED,

AND THE RIVER IS TRYING TO BREAK ME;

I'M NOT VERY STRONG AND I DON'T WANT TO

TO BE PUSHED BY A SOURCE OF LIFE TO THE BOTTOM ...

I have bypassed many resources,

BUT MANY HAVE TOUCHED ME ...

I CONTINUE FURTHER THROUGH A QUIET FLOW,

WHERE THE WAVES STOPPED

AND THEY GAVE ME A FURTHER LIFE.
