Ironias da vida

Todos nós já pensámos que a vida por vezes parece facilitar-nos, e outras tantas vezes parece dar-nos facadas pelas costas, principalmente quan estamos numa boa fase. De facto a vida parece dar-nos um saco de doces, mas provavelmente alguns deles estarão fora do prazo ou algo do género. Enfim, Alanis Morisette tem uma música já muito antiga chamada "Ironic" e fala precisamente das ironias da vida. Esta noite dou por mim em tudo o que já tive de bom, mas também nas coisas más que passaram por mim.
A música ajudou-me a levar isso com mais calma, e de uma forma natural, aproveitando a vida,aceitando e aproveitando tudo o que tiver de bom para me dar, e tentando nao ser apanhado de surpresa, destruindo os problemas o mais rápido possivel...
Aqui partilho convosco a letra da música...

"Ironic"
An old man turned ninety-eight
He won the lottery and died the next day
It's a black fly in your Chardonnay
It's a death row pardon two minutes too late
And isn't it ironic... don't you think

It's like rain on your wedding day
It's a free ride when you've already paid
It's the good advice that you just didn't take
Who would've thought... it figures

Mr. Play It Safe was afraid to fly
He packed his suitcase and kissed his kids goodbye
He waited his whole damn life to take that flight
And as the plane crashed down he thought
"Well isn't this nice..."
And isn't it ironic... don't you think

Well life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
When you think everything's okay and everything's going right
And life has a funny way of helping you out when
You think everything's gone wrong and everything blows up in your face
A traffic jam when you're already late
A no-smoking sign on your cigarette break
It's like ten thousand spoons when all you need is a knife
It's meeting the man of my dreams
And then meeting his beautiful wife
And isn't it ironic...don't you think
A little too ironic...and, yeah, I really do think...

It's like rain on your wedding day
It's a free ride when you've already paid
It's the good advice that you just didn't take
Who would've thought... it figures
Life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
Life has a funny, funny way of helping you out
Helping you out
