Tadany Um refúgio para a alma e um convite à consciência.
Life is made of moments, and in each person’s individual kaleidoscope, the most intense events are the ones that carve the deepest memories into the psyche.
However, by their dual nature, such memories have two paths: one is paved with magnificent, dazzling, and inspiring recollections of glorious moments, while the other is strewn with discouraging, insensitive, and horrifying memories of traumatic and undesirable situations.
As time passes, these memories often leap from the unconscious with powerful force, and they are so intense that they shape and dictate a person’s thoughts and behavior, even when one remains unaware of their origins.
People often find themselves asking, “Where did that attitude come from?” or “What made me act that way?”
It feels as though someone else were steering one’s words and actions. But it isn’t another person, it is those buried memories trying to resurface through personal desires.
Therefore, the individual who remains constantly alert to their own thoughts and impulses can perceive these subtle, past forces attempting to manipulate the sovereignty of their present will.
In other words, the past, although it has already passed, sometimes crosses the path of the present human being, trying to revalidate its forgotten existence. And it does with an impulse toward rebirth, seeking to resurrect itself from the inglorious pit of oblivion.
