Hive Open Mic | Week 187 | Hands in the Air | Cover | Manos al Aire
A peaceful song... An important week for the Hive Open Mic, sponsored by 
Manos al Aire always caused many feelings in me since I heard it, I remember that its lyrics made me desperate, I felt that the composer was trapped in a very stormy relationship and that instead of giving up she should run away from there, but the years have passed and not only has my perception of the song changed, but I have lived it. Recently travelling started to play in my playlist, and it represents perfectly this stage of my life, only in my case it's not in my love relationship.
I try to live a quiet life, especially since dad died I try to stay out of trouble and distract myself a lot at work and keep busy at all times, but I've concluded that people are naturally confrontational. Sometimes I'm just sitting here writing my posts and I get a message with some problem that someone made up, that's why I love the mobile phone free season I had a couple of months ago where I literally felt like I disappeared from the world.
The saddest thing is that I often fall into provocations, not to fight, but to defend myself. Some people affect me more than others, especially those I love the most and who have shown me that they are not going to change their way of thinking. This last couple of months after collapsing I told myself that I don't want those environments around me anymore, I literally gave up and put my hands in the air. I don't want to fight against the current, I don't want to be at war; I no longer have weapons to face the world, as this song says, I only care about loving. I don't know if it makes me happy to let other people crash on their own, but it does give me a lot of peace to understand that everyone has their own path and their own decisions, and that I am a spectator from the outside, but always ready to lend a hand, but to go back to arguing and trying to make someone understand a reality? No... I give up 馃檶
As I said before, what the verses of the song narrate is desperate, but it represents a lot of everyday life. The chorus of the song represents my current feelings about situations, I think it was a great choice for this week's Hive Open Mic. My video was shot with my Tecno Pova II and edited with Shotcut. The photos were edited with PhotoDirector. Thank you very much for making it this far, I'm going to share with you the original version of Manos al Aire for those of you who don't know it...
Una canci贸n pac铆fica... Una semana importante para el Hive Open Mic, patrocinada por
Manos al Aire siempre caus贸 muchos sentimientos en m铆 desde que la escuch茅, recuerdo que su letra me desesperaba, sent铆a que la compositora estaba atrapada en una relaci贸n muy tormentosa y que en vez de rendirse deber铆a salir corriendo de ah铆, pero han pasado los a帽os y no solo es que ha cambiado mi percepci贸n de la canci贸n, sino que la he vivido. Hace poco viajando comenz贸 a sonar en mi playlist, y vaya que representa a perfecci贸n esta etapa de mi vida, solo que en mi caso no es en mi relaci贸n amorosa.
Intento vivir una vida tranquila, especialmente desde que pap谩 muri贸 trato de alejarme de los problemas y de distraerme mucho en el trabajo y mantenerme ocupado en todo momento, pero he concluido que la gente es conflictiva por naturaleza. A veces solo estoy aqu铆 sentado escribiendo mis posts y me llega un mensaje con alg煤n problema que alguien se invent贸, por eso amo la temporada sin celular que tuve hace un par de meses donde literalmente sent铆 que desaparec铆 del mundo.
Lo m谩s triste es que s铆 suelo caer en provocaciones, no para pelear, pero s铆 para defenderme. Algunas persona me afectan m谩s que otras, sobretodo las que m谩s quiero y que me han demostrado que no van a cambiar su manera de pensar. Este 煤ltimo par de meses luego de colapsar me dije a mi mismo que ya no quiero esos ambientes a mi al rededor, literalmente me rend铆 y puse mis manos al aire. No quiero luchar contra la corriente, no quiero estar en guerra; ya no tengo armas para enfrentarme al mundo, como dice esta canci贸n, solo me importa amar. No s茅 si me haga feliz dejar que las dem谩s personas se estrellen solas, pero s铆 me da mucha paz entender que todos tienen su propio camino y sus propias decisiones, y que soy un espectador desde afuera, pero siempre preparado para dar una mano, pero volver a discutir e intentar hacer entender a alguien una realidad? No... Me rindo 馃檶
Como dije antes, lo que narran las estrofas de la canci贸n es desesperante, pero representa mucho el d铆a a d铆a. El coro de la canci贸n representa mi sentir actual ante las situaciones, creo que ha sido una gran elecci贸n para esta semana del Hive Open Mic. Mi video fue grabado con mi Tecno Pova II y editado con Shotcut. Las fotograf铆as se editaron con PhotoDirector. Muchas gracias por llegar hasta aqu铆, les voy a compartir la versi贸n original de Manos al Aire para quienes no la conozcan...
