Your way "to Gaga"

I've never liked people who tell others what to do or what not. No matter the reason or justification flying behind which hide behind. They're "cortarollos" and point. And unfortunately this attitude perceive much more inside than outside our borders. More than I care to admit.

It comes to my mind the film “Minority Report”, where the police prevented the crimes were committed before and detainees complained of being convicted for acts that had not reached perpetrate. Well closed minds and are overprotective inspiration what this film to crime: We never know the genius that can leave the free labor of a person if we cut the wings even before takeoff.

What would have been visionaries like Steve Jobs O George Lucas -the chose if I had not spoken enough of both :)- in such a repressive environment like we have in Spain? For though in the beginning his works were judged millimeter, at least in their places of origin they found that helping hand that made it possible to change the world. But I fear that here they would have been released from the eccentric category. What a way to scare the muse!

Luckly, the muse of many patriotic creators is bombproof, Y, como una cuñada pesada que ha encallado en el sofá y no sabe cuándo irse, resist against all odds bombing throwing logic and warnings, no longer heads and educators, but of his own family environment. As it happened to Francisco Ibáñez, he abandoned his studies of banking to create the most famous Spanish comic modernity, Mortadelo and Filemon, ignoring the instructions of his father. And that's the hardest when you soar through the seas of doubt in search of self-fulfillment. Your boat will constantly buffeted by opinions that come from east and west from friends, family, and the worst typhoons in case blow against: the advice of your parents. Only compass pointing to your vocation or your natural talents will guide you to fruition. Self-and nobody else- depends straighten the wheel and take the pulse of the criticism as wind sets sail your ship to reach its destination safe and sound. There will anxieties, but I've always said I'd rather tell my grandchildren the story of my life like "the perfect Storm" and not the cruise "The Love Boat" esperando a que me lo den todo servido en bandeja.

That's why I admire all those who at one point says "here!"-suele Happen so, when you break; no best catalyst- and decide to take charge of your day to improve or swerve and change radically. The latter are my favorites.

The capacity for reinvention is something that requires courage because it is assumed a dimension that does not know you and is calling you. Although sometimes it is not in your hand to decide whether to accept the call because it often happens that those around you, once your allies, back and get you expelled from paradise that you built yourself. Monica Naranjo encontró en la televisión una segunda escuela donde seguir creciendo como profesional, what injuries he had caused her betrayal of record cured.

And then there are people like Lady Gaga, sentenced to know the success and neglect equally ungrateful -because so are the human beings, in its low hours in music (commercially speaking because it has continued to launch new works) fail to make a small role in the series of his friend Ryan Murphy and what do you know ..., he recognized his work with nothing less than a golden globe. And with the face of circumstances and excitement of knowing also recognized in this artistic side, la vimos abriéndose camino a codazos entre desorientada y aturdida – y no como nos han querido hacer creer, en contra de DiCaprio– a hallway full of obstacles to reach the statue with him more than one poked in the eye and pretended to return stronger than ever. Because the tireless dreamers who seek their place in this crazy world are always entitled to be reborn in a new form: A work, a song, a web ...

  1. Bravo, muy buena reflexión. Sin duda, la mejor forma de realizarte, de forjarte y de crecer como persona en el mundo de hoy es con duro esfuerzo y yendo contra viento y marea. No obstante, creo que no todo el mundo está preparado para esa “reinvención” de la que hablas. Hay gente que por ser como es, por una herencia arrastrada desde su misma infancia y por la forma en que le han educado o ha crecido, esa lucha por sus convicciones y sus ideales le cuesta el doble y hasta el triple que alguien seguro de sí mismo y con fuerza de voluntad. Pero en efecto, ese es el camino de hoy en día para quien no ha tenido la fortuna de tener la vida resuelta, en lo que a triunfo, dinero y trabajo se refiere especialmente. En cualquier caso, hay que mirarse al espejo y saber que lo que estás viendo tiene futuro y que escoger el camino más difícil, pero el que tú sabes que “es” el camino, lo supone todo. Como en el caso de Lady Gaga que cuentas o como en muchos otros que conocemos en nuestras propias vidas. Insistencia, ser infatigable, golpear repetidamente la puerta con un mazo hasta que ésta ceda… no hay otra. Si al final no hay suerte o el mazo se parte en dos, al menos que puedas mirarte al espejo y no tener que agachar la cabeza.

    1. Pues sí, Isaac. Me quedo con tu reflexión final: moriremos por nuestras convicciones pero sin agachar la cabeza. Ánimo y gracias por escribir.
