"私の魂は隠されたオーケストラだ。どんな楽器、どんなバイオリン、ドラム、シンバル、ハープが自分の中で鳴り響いているのか分からない。ただシンフォニーが聞こえるだけだ。"
— Fernando Pessoa
Simplified Meaning:
Everyone has different parts of themselves, much like an orchestra has different instruments. You may not always understand every feeling, thought, or reaction inside you, just like you might not recognize every individual sound made by all the instruments. However, what you experience is the overall effect, a combination of these parts working together, like a beautiful piece of music. Think about a time when you felt a mix of emotions, like happiness, nervousness, and excitement all at once. It's like those emotions are different instruments playing together in your mind. To make sense of your inner world, try to appreciate the overall harmony and not get too overwhelmed by each separate feeling. By doing so, you can better understand and enjoy the 'music' of your life.
