BIZI GOSEA

Life teaches that neither the good nor the bad shows up always under the same
circumstances. A while ago I experienced an incredible situation under some
determined conditions, after a while you can live another one subordinate to
other different ones which seems as amazing to you or even more than the
previous. 15 days ago I visited the center Zabaloetxe Goikoa of Aspace in Loiu,
where I had one of the most fascinating encounters with its pupils, people with
cerebral palsy and other added disabilities. The act consisted in answering the
questions that various pupils of the center had prepared and in return being
able to be close to the ones that have the courage to face their severer disabilities
in different ways, using the live music to connect with them by means of the
various sensorial channels. Seeing, hearing, breathing, smelling,
communicating, moving... In The Course Of life, one loses track of the
importance of all these words. It’s curious to have to live extreme situations to
come to realize something so evident as if life is a great gift. They say that
happiness is a feeling that is experienced by contrast and I believe that in the
same way consciousness is something that also grows in our inner self, or better
said, awakens, because of pure contrast. I assure you that in the course of the
morning I felt so many innumerable sensations that time after time I would get
goose pimples. The warmth, affection, the strong emotions, indescribable,
gazes, is something that I cannot put into words. Enormous! Life has to be
appraised in his fair measure. So many times we blind ourselves in not being
happy, we do not know how to diminish the importance of and we do not savor
what we have simply for not being aware of it. When you attend to one of these
events, one believes he is doing them a favor and ...Do you want to hear a
secret? It’s quite the other way around. How much happiness you gave to me
that day! Only I wait that this, that still it lasts... continues. If not, I can always
go back to visit again. Besarkada handi bat!
